“Food delivery just being dropped off on your doorstep. Remember when you had to go outside and make EYE CONTACT like some kind of PERSON?! No more, my friends. Just leave it outside and I’ll get it when I’m ready. No more scrambling to find pants when you’re half baked and hungry.” — paperbackella

“My faith in humanity.” — fitnfeisty

“Movies, unfortunately. Cinema specifically. I’m sure a lot of production companies will take enormous losses or possibly file bankruptcy as no one is paying to go see movies anymore. The other issue being that no one can really make movies at the moment either. Travel bans all over, logistic issues, actors not able to be within close proximity to one another, and then all the post-production work that, for the most part can’t be done from home. Little to no support for creative arts jobs from governments around the globe. Artists encouraged to retrain in other sectors. It’s devastating.” — erinxeddie

“As a current college student, I am in favor of keeping recorded lectures. It’s way more helpful than just having notes or slides.” — dan4mt

“Cruise ships…dubious that industry will come out the other side without radical changes.” — PirateKilt

“I’ve enjoyed the solitude of not having so many social obligations. Once this is all over, I’ll have to go back to being the asshole that lies about not feeling well to get out of them.” — InspectorRatched

“Childhood development theories – we now have an entire group of children who have missed what are regarded as developmental milestones. Learning to play cooperatively with others, learning to share, empathy building, etc. It will be very interesting to see the research coming out over the next decade or so.” — JaBe68

“I’m hoping that this convinces the (America, pretty much everyone else has this figured out already) masses that healthcare is a human right and should not be tied to employment. The pandemic has shown that plenty of people lose their jobs through no fault of their own, despite their best efforts and that should not condemn them to either going without healthcare or accumulating crippling debt when they lose their health insurance coverage.” — trying_to_adult_here
