Heya,
🤙🏽
I don’t know about you but it certainly doesn’t feel like most Mondays, the days are morphing into one.
Nevertheless I am here to spread some positive vibes
Something I’ve heard a few times this week, delightfully, is the idea that you shouldn’t feel guilty for not being as productive as you’d like.
There is no doubt that all this free time is a great opportunity to get work done, learn new skills and sort out all the tedious tasks you’ve been putting off.
However. Sometimes you just can’t bring yourself to do anything at all, and that is ok too.
In uncertain times, where anxiety levels are through the roof all round, it is just as important to use your time to rest, relax and be in your happy place.
Instagram still finds a way to make you feel like shit, even when everyone is stuck indoors.
Smile and wave boys.

C’mere to me…
Jeremy & Tori
A (socially distant) Love Story
Jeremy Cohen is a freelance photographer from New York, who managed to meet Tori Cignarella, despite the worlds current circumstance…
This picture says it all.
From his Brooklyn apartment, he looked out his window and saw a girl dancing on the roof of her building across the street.
He waved, and she waved back.
“Spotting her enthusiastic moves from afar, Cohen wondered if she was perhaps creating a TikTok dance video of her own. But it turns out that was not the case. “I was doing the High School Musical ‘We’re All In This Together’ dance,” she said. “A poor rendition of it, but that’s what it was supposed to be!””

He plucked up the courage, took out his drone, wrote his number on a piece of paper and flew it across to the neighbouring rooftop.
“He remembered an idea he and a friend had dreamed up about sending a number via drone. “I thought, this is a perfect opportunity to do this,” he said. For her part, Cignarella was certainly surprised by the unexpected turn of events. “It was a ‘holy cr-p’ kind of moment — like, Oh my god, this is happening right now?” she said of being the recipient of the drone. “It was really cool.””

To his surprise she did text him back later that evening…
Jeremy posted a three-part series of videos about his new relationship on his Instagram account, it’s great.
The first explains how they met.
The second tells of their dinner date on opposing rooftops.
And lastly, as in the picture, he hilariously sourced a huge plastic bubble so that they could safely go on a walk together.
I am very much looking forward to part 4.
Smile 😊
With the Olympics postponed this will have to do. It’s excellent.

A very interesting perspective about mainstream media during this period of social distancing…
Late-night turning completely to the YouTube platform.
Think 🤔🤯🌊
Strip clubs and museums have the same basic rule: look but don't touch.
That’s all for now 🤙🏽
