A "fun distraction"? That's some of the most psycopathic shit I've seen on this site, ngl.

Indeed. Hopefully he didn't mean "fun distraction" in a positive way and was trying to convey it was interesting to watch develop. Especially considering he has friends in the area.

> in part because it's been a fun distraction, in part because I have friends in Wuhan

Yeah uh, poor choice of words on my part, I guess that's why I'm not a writer. I have a bad tendency to use "fun" as "interesting" rather than "enjoyable", should probably be more careful about that..
