Yes, it is quiet but it's quiet everywhere even in the streets not that I even see the streets anymore except on the internet news.
I think everyone is worn out from the overwhelming magnitude of so many combined disasters all over the globe. Overwhelmed. Tired. Drained. I know I am. We went from disastrous fires that were long ago totally forgotten due to covid and now to flooding rain. I have friends in terrible situations right now as I type and it's starting to pour rain again where they live. People are traumatised. Never in my entire life has it seemed this bad. The cost of living, the health issues, the lack of leadership, the weather issues, the war issues, the homeless issues and on and on.
