Yeah.
Makes sense. I just thought they were measuring or something.
Yeah, I always use my elbow

Having a good heart-to-heart with your close friends helps put what they're going through into perspective and helps to clear up what's going on in your life as well.
You never know if that one friend you always go to, to talk about things might be going though their own things aswell.
Make some time to talk to your friends and check up on them! But over the phone or a voice/video chat please
Being open with your friends makes you become closer i've found!

Indeed. Very true. Even talking about their problems can sometimes help with your own

Just think...once your letter had to go by boat or mule train...and it would take ages to receive word from someone...now it can be in matters of seconds! People would sail across the ocean to the new lands never expecting to see their family & friends again...and we can see someone's face, hear their voice even though they may be on the other side of the world. 100 years or more ago no one would have believed you!

I feel badly for those people for who social distancing means isolation since they live alone.

[NerdyAliCat]

Our classes have finally moved online and i'm already going a little crazy

[npixelz]

I know, it's not fun for them at all.

I wish my work let me slack off like that

Pix, your work is considered essential. As with everyone doing essential work should feel proud that you are helping everyone. You're heroes! People will look at the jobs like yours differently for years to come! COVID-19 is bringing huge changes and this is one of the many good ones.

AliCat - are people sewing their own masks? Might be a project to look at for work or as a community service project. (Over here you have to have so many hours toward community service to graduate).

Npixelz, your job is keeping the rest of us sane knowing we can get supplies & groceries! If you don't stock it we can't get it so thank you for working hard to get those shelves full & all the work you are doing! Please pass that on to your coworkers as well!

[npixelz]

True enough, I just would like to relax every now and then. But thank you, I don't think we're "heroes" but I do like knowing I'm helping people.
Funnily enough, we finished early today and though we didn't slack off afterwards, we got to go home early.

That might be worth a try.
Thanks, I try my best. I think I may have not tried as hard today, as I was slower than usual, but that might also be because the store hasn't been faced in a week.

Check out this article on Best materials to use for making masks that the NY times printed.

They even have a link to a design for a paper origami mask made out of vacuum filter material!

Sounds cool. I've always thought that masks in anime are great. Either they make the character look cool, they make them look tough, or they make them look cute. Of course what the character looks like and what they wear also affects that, but I think most of the time the mask helps complete the look.
