It's important to try to keep a sense of humor during dark times. And we intend to help y'all do just that. While some people are tweeting sobering (but helpful) information about the Coronavirus outbreak, others are doing us all a great service by making us laugh. Comedian Dana Bein is one such Twitter user. While "losing his mind" over current events, Bein wrote a hilarious parody of Queens 'Bohemian Rhapsody.' The masterpiece touches on hand washing, anxiety, and even masturbation. Give him a follow if you like his work. We're going to need all the parodies we can get.

Wanna stay up to date on jokes about the Coronavirus outbreak and general Twitter tomfoolery? We've got you covered. These tweets offer plenty of humor, wise words, and dumb jokes that at the very least, will help you obliterate your boredom. And if you need more, here's another fresh Twitter list. Everyone needs ways to pass the time these days. And we're here to help.
We're all being inundated with information - and misinformation - regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Sometimes all the statistics and warnings can feel overwhelming. Dr. Faheem Younus took to Twitter yesterday in an attempt to clear some of these things up. In a Twitter thread, the Maryland-based doctor tackles common myths about the virus, from the claim that Ibuprofen and other anti-inflammatories worsen the symptoms, to concerns about whether or not people can go jogging during this trying time. While some of these seem like common knowledge to some people, it's important that we all stay informed and act responsibly. It's going to be a long few months, and a little bit of education goes a long way.
With so many people quarantining, some of you might feel like there's not enough internet to help you pass the time. Fortunately, our entertainment-providing industry is unaffected by Coronavirus and the changes flipping normal life on its ass. We're going to be serving up memes til the end, and here's another gallery of 'em to help you through it all.
January, February, and March 2020 have pretty much been as terrible as you could imagine, so how much worse could April really be? Famous last words, right? What do you all think is going to happen in April? We're betting on some sort of alien invasion, or maybe another Great Depression.
While it may certainly feel like the end times right now, sometimes humor is the only way to get through it all, so keep spreading the memes.
On Monday, former Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio tweeted out asking people to stop spreading false rumors about "Marshall Law" while cities across the United States continue to go into lock down on account of the spread of COVID-19. Of course, Rubio meant to say martial law but that hasn't stopped people on the internet from a.) joking about the release of a brand new Eminem album, and b.) the department store called Marshalls.
Unfortunately, Eminem has denied a new album release, but we're still enjoying the memes and tweets that have come out of Rubio's Twitter snafu regardless.
Could 2020 get any worse? Between the Coronavirus pandemic and the 2020 election, it really feels like sh*t is hitting the fan. These days, many of us "hang out" in Zoom meetings and if we're lucky enough to have work, are doing it remotely. It's going to be a long few months, no matter where you live. But at least we've got memes to help us laugh away the pain.
Wendell Potter, ex-Cigna vice president and general good Samaritan, took to Twitter to expose the sketchy practices of the American health insurance industry. Not that you needed more bad news in these trying times of the coronavirus pandemic, but this thread is extremely informative and important to share with anyone in your life who believes that the American healthcare system doesn't need to be reformed. On a marginally more humorous note, here are some American healthcare-related memes!
As sports are being cancelled across the globe due to the COVID-19 outbreak, many people are lamenting this great cultural loss. Fans around the world are having to find new ways to pass their time. And now, they're tweeting about their wild (and wildly boring) discoveries. Buckle up, folks. This is gonna be a long few months.
While we've been freaking out about the ever-worsening Coronavirus outbreak, Jared Leto just found out about the grave situation...yesterday. The actor took to Twitter and Instagram to share his surprise and well-wishes to the crumbling world around him. Leto explained that he'd been in attending a silent meditation retreat in the desert, completely cut off from technology.
"Wow. 12 days ago I began a silent meditation in the desert, we were totally isolated. No phone, no communication etc. We had no idea what was happening outside the facility. Walked out yesterday into a very different world. One that's been changed forever. Mind blowing - to say the least, I'm getting messages from friends and family all around the globe and catching up on what's going on. Hope you and yours are ok. Sending positive energy to all. Stay inside. Stay safe."
People on Twitter were pretty entertained by this news, reveling in the Jared Leto-ness of it all, and likening it to disaster films like 28 Days Later. We have to wonder how many other people out there are blissfully ignorant of current events. We kind of envy them.
Love enjoying tweets but hate logging on to Twitter because of the political sh*tshow? We've got you covered. Sifting through the hellhole ain't easy, but we've managed to collect some fresh and moderately entertaining tweets to keep you busy, whether you're social distancing or just looking to waste some time. Because you're worth it.
