I can only hope
The image makes fun of how many some Americans overreacted to the news of toilet paper shortages and that they were stupid for doing so. It also shows that not all important events will make good movies. -

Mr Darcy's COVID greetings
This meme resonated with me because I'd noticed several other aspects of society that reverted to Austen-esque practices during COVID-19. Emails became more like letters; personal and sometimes lengthy. People really began to enjoy walks in pairs again. It forced us all to slow down and consider one another more. (For unit HUM404) Creator: Twitter user Hannah Long / @HannahGraceLong using a still from the BBC's 'Pride and Prejudice' miniseries. -

Rudy Goberg tests positive for hubris
In March, during the early days of the COVID-19 outbreak reaching Europe, Australia, and the USA, some people were still taking the risk less seriously than others. Twitter has a nose for irony, and a lot of people picked up on what happened to basketballer Rudy Gobert. In early March when the NBA was still denying the need to shut down the season, he touched every microphone and surface he could reach to mock the possibility of COVID-19. A week later, he was sick with it, and the NBA season was called off. Twitter user Jeffery Cook (@JefferyCook) -

Masterchef Australia's Perfect Storm
HUM402 In April 2020, Masterchef Australia premiered its 12th season, and received the best ratings in years. As well as featuring old 'Fan Favourite' contestants, for a stressed out nation in lockdown the nostalgia, comfort, and domesticity of Masterchef, and the lack of other places to be of an evening, definitely contributed to the shows success. I know my family is hooked for the first time in eight years, and Masterchef has become something we look forward to doing together every evening. -

Store advertises that it will not enforce social distancing
Increasingly social distancing measures have taken on a political element in the United States. This post shows a store in the author's hometown proudly advertising that masks are not allowed in the store, that handshakes and hugs are OK and that they are "open to the Truth". Absent a consistent set of messages from the top levels of government many different theories and ideas about liberty VS public safety have taken hold. *Screenshot of Twitter post -

Gab Grieco's personal experience with the archive
I have been consistently posting material on the archive since we started contributing the archive as a class. I’ve given my interpretations of events or personal experiences throughout my posts, and I think my posts point out some small but important parts of this pandemic that would have otherwise been brushed under the rug. I aimed to focus on the ways the live music industry was affected by Covid. Since many of the venues I go to in New York have been closed down and are in jeopardy of never reopening, I thought it would be best to give my thoughts on those examples while I also wanted to show the rippling effects the governmental lockdowns had on a number of industries. The shutdowns of these venues really affect many other industries — there are entire businesses, bartenders, performers, comedians, artists, and activists who are negatively impacted by these shutdowns. I've seen people who work at my internship get laid off because the company, an events booking company and publication, is not making any money at the moment. Yet, while I notice that a lot of my friends or artists I like are not making a lot of money during this time, I’ve seen so many great fundraisers put together by these musicians to help other groups of people who are disproportionately affected by the virus and shutdowns. I searched for new content through social media, news sites, and personal accounts. I found myself actively and coincidentally finding material to post, whether it be reading an article or hearing about an “online concert” from friends and coworkers. I tried to diversify my material while attempting to stay in the realm of the live music business. For example, I gave an account of my purchase in support of the Groundswell Rapid Response Fund through the music-buying site Bandcamp (almost like iTunes), while I also posted an article explaining how California lawmakers had amended laws in favor of the gig economy, which directly affects musicians and artists. I wanted to post pieces from both large publications and small publications to hear diverse voices and to understand the pandemic through different perspectives. -

Personal COVID experience
A Twitter thread sharing a personal experience with COVID-19. People have turned to Twitter to speak about their experiences with COVID because they are able to reach a larger audience. Harry explains what it was like at the beginning of getting sick and he also explained how he wasn't able to get tested. The fact that so many people had it or have it and aren't getting tested makes some of the numbers look better than they are. *Harry Wood, @harrymwood *Anjelica Oswald, Northeastern University -

Better World
This tweet calls of society to emerge from the pandemic and work to create a better world. Far too many factors allowed for the rise and continued spread of the virus. Society is now facing the consequences of such an intense global crisis, and some of the struggles could have been avoided had appropriate measures been taken, especially in America. Had America had paid sick leave, free health insurance, etc., maybe the spread of the virus could have been slowed. While we will never know, we must do better. We must take what we learn from this and create a better world for all. -
