While most of the world is isolating at home (well, they should be anyway. If you're not, please do), celebrities are no different. And while it's probably not very difficult to self-isolate in a massive mansion with a pool and a gym, it seems that all the material wealth in the world isn't enough to stop them from getting bored, just like the rest of us. Ellen DeGeneres is posting videos on her Instagram account showing us all the ways she's trying to keep herself busy while she isolates herself at home and they're the perfect mix of hilarious and relatable (sort of). Thanks, Ellen for always keeping us entertained, no matter the situation.

There is nothing that tests the make-or-break of a relationship more than being forced to indefinite co-quarantine.

Meg Zukin, a social media editor at Variety is self-quarantining with her husband and they began to get on each other's nerves after only a few days. It inspired her to write a tweet asking the internet for any and all relationship dramas that they were experiencing in the time of coronavirus. She received so many responses, that she compiled them onto a google doc, charging $1 to read them, which would be donated to food banks and charities across the country. She raised more than $5,000 in two days and then decided to turn the project into a free and public website and is still taking donations of any amount.
