Jenny and Yelena report on respective self-isolation in NYC and LA. Yelena compares the gutted supermarkets of LA to the empty shop shelves in the former USSR, and reflects on the concepts of corona-socialism and corona-capitalism.

Jenny assesses the state of language in the times of coronavirus (how many times have you said the word ZOOM in the past week?) and shares her experience of weathering a hurricane. The problems of doing laundry, finding toilet paper, and charting a new apartment geography are addressed, as is the intermingling of work and leisure, and home and public space.
