At 5 PM Saturday, March 21, Governor J.B. Pritzker’s COVID-19 Executive Order No. 8, aka the Stay at Home order, took effect. Here’s a daily-ish journal of how Reader staff, our friends, family—and our pets—are spending our time.

  • Buffy Sainte-Marie’s shaggy bangs

  • Model Jessy Parr’s cool waves

  • Putting a bowl on top of our head and seeing how it all plays out

What we’re tweeting:

This would be a good time to reaffirm that my tweets are my own thoughts and not necessarily those of my employers, lovers, or food delivery drivers.
