Hope you are indoors. Hope you are safe. 

It’s week two of the lockdown for most of us here in India and, by now, some of us have found a working routine. Others have just given up all hopes of figuring one out and just muddle through the day. Personally, I am somewhere in between. I have good days where I accomplish a lot. I have bad days, where it’s 8PM and the house is a mess, the dishes are in the sink, and my To-Do list is unfinished, leaving me unsure what I did all day.

The purpose of this newsletter is to connect the dots and give you a larger picture of the events that happened through the week. That’s getting more challenging. The pace of events has accelerated, and things get outdated in days, forget a week (that’s also why we launched a new daily newsletter, Beyond The First Order—you can check it out here). 

So I decided that the best way for The Nutgraf to stay relevant is to connect recent events to something foundational, conceptual, and long-lasting, instead of drawing transient connections that probably get outdated in a week.
