SocialDistanceLife.com – new sister site focusing on the positive aspects on life in Coronavirus times

We have added a new sister-site to the Hooniverse Media Empire®©™. The website is called Social Distance Life.com. I made this website to highlight the positive aspects of things associated with the Coronavirus and our new socially distant lifestyles.

I have personally found the instant life changes associated with the Covid-19 virus rather challenging. With my wife and I still working, a blessing in itself, albeit mostly from home, and now homeschooling two kids, while being limited mostly to our house. Then I felt like I was being depressed by bad memes and argumentative people on social media. So much so, that I decided to delete my Facebook account and remove the Instagram app from my phone.

That helped, but it wasn’t enough. I needed an outlet for the good things that are happening. That is why I created Social Distance Life.com. Check it out. And if you have anything to contribute, you can always email me here, kamil AT hooniverse DOT com.

Thanks, and stay healthy.

    Social media has a way of going toxic at the drop of a hat, and today’s climate hasn’t helped. Your site is a reminder that it doesn’t have to be that way.

    Nice work!

    Great approach – doing something about it. I just mute the people who are negative or overly irritating. But I understand the challenge; in an attempt to balance my childish optimism, I, too, have sometimes stepped into the same salad of negative thoughts. Don’t let it get to you!

    We’ve been working from home with homeschool for a little more than two weeks now. The first ten days were great, and its easy to get everyone in action as long as the weather is okay. But it gets a bit repetitive over time…also, this is written from a campfire in the forrest while my kids throw Barbies from tree to tree, climbing down when they miss them. Yikes.

    Good on you Kamil! I muted everyone/everything on my FB feed that started getting preachy during the last election cycle, and now it’s almost exclusively the few people that just post pictures of their kids and car/motorcycle/aviation sites. I don’t do boats much, but I picked a couple of them up in the feed along the way too. There’s one of people that attempt a fairly busy and challenging inlet in Florida somewhere, that’s pretty amusing seeing the disparity in skills/give a damn.

      I spent the first few sentences nodding my head in agreement, until I got to the part about the forest campfire. Then I pretty much decided I hated you.

      Lol, jk. I am envious, though. My wife is now working from home (usually logging 13-15 hrs/day) and we’ve realized that our routines do not play nicely together. She shot me the stink-eye this morning when I told her I had fed the kids and was going for a run. It was nice to get outside, but it certainly was no campfire in the woods! Enjoy nature, friend!

        Hey, we both have our wife as the main breadwinner, that comes at a cost. But, yeah, right now, living out in the middle of nowhere is really helpful. I have taken the kids out in the boat, skiing, sledding, hiking, biking and to countless campfires, all without meeting a soul. Talking about social media enables bragging mode, I guess. But there’s no late evening cinema + cappucino here, on the other hand. I hope this all blows over soon, and there’s a lot ot learn from it.

    I guess on the bright side for me, I’ve likely dodged any potential layoffs by going on paternity leave a few weeks ago (and since my wife works in health care, she’s pretty safe). On the other hand, getting outside for a walk was decent mental stimulation for my son, and since we live in a condo, it’s difficult to get outside without touching things or running into our neighbors. I’ve been raiding the recycling bin just to see what I can find to keep a seven-month old occupied.
