Meredith notes: “cats are apparently pretty chill during manhunts. But here is the greatest question of the night. How is my partner sleeping through all of this?”
And concludes the early morning reports around 12:30am: “Epilogue: the manhunt ended or moved on. I accidentally clicked my water glass against my lamp as I got back in bed. My partner started and rolled over. Another night in #columbiaheights”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
