One of the most crucial things we can do these days is wash our hands for a full 20 seconds. And for those who aren't scrubbing their hands as often or as long as they should be, music icon Gloria Gaynor is here to help. With each other, we'll "survive."

"Honestly, take me back to 2019," social media star Tyshon Lawrence mentioned in his recent TikTok rant about COVID-19. "It wasn't that bad of each year. I was just dramatic." Same, Tyshon. Same.
With several schools and universities switching to remote classes, students have a lot of added time on their hands. What are they doing with that time, you ask? Well, @d.Wayne13 is imagining a global in which each person will have to graduate through a computer screen, so there's that.
If you're anything like us, you're probably not understanding why people feel the need to buy a year's allocate of toilet paper. Sadly, @we could might not ever get an answer, however here's a TikTok of a toilet paper-filled claw machine anyway.
