Like an Astronaut/ Bubbled for the Very First Time

When first used to describe COVIDian isolation, I thought, Good idea. Let's all bubble up, look after each other. Now the bubble is not only a protective mechanism but, like Saturn's moon in Gattaca (1997), a place of "privilege," a "career" move -- as evidenced by one of the six barbers chosen to cut the hair of basketballers bubbled at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

"This is potentially the biggest privilege of my career," said Marcos 'Reggae' Smith. "It's a blessing. I feel like an astronaut."
