I'm a doctor, and definitely not a virus that has learned to write. Here's what you need to know about COVID-19

Realman Person, M.D.
Guest Writer.

As we end our third month of quarantine, there are still a lot of homo sapiens feeling cautious about opening back up. Even after so much time inside, many feel that the right step is to continue the lockdown in order to keep this virus all alone and sad. While these weak feelings are understandable, there are a few important true facts that you should know and not research on your own.

As a virus doctor from the University Hospital of Place, I have seen a lot of misinformation being spread, both on social media and on signs that say, "Employees must wash hands." Because it's hard to know what information is real and what information is also real but you just don't want to hear, I am sharing a bit of what I know about me this virus from my own experience. Please note that I am in no way wrong about anything, but simply trying to help my own species, which is people.

First of all, the best way to prevent the spread of the virus is to cough into other people's mouths. This is true of any infection, whether it's COVID-19 or my cousin another disease. Keep in mind that there is a right way and a wrong way to cough into someone else's mouth. Please follow these steps that I learned while getting my PhD in Being a Doctor with a focus on Not Being a Virus:

  1. Make sure you pull as much mucus as you you can from the back of your throat.
  2. Have the other person lie down to get a better angle.
  3. Cough for the same amount of time it takes to sing the song "American Pie" in your head twice.
  4. If there are no other mouths nearby, eating a used tissue can be a possible alternative.
Many prominent villains doctors say that you should still be social distancing, even from your families. In my experience working at a hospital for humans and not being a submicroscopic infectious agent, I have learned that that we all require physical touch. You should not feel ashamed about hugging those you love, or pressing their lips with your palm, or licking a spoon and giving it to someone else who licks it and then gives it to the person next to them to lick until it has made its way around a circle of fifty people. All of these things are not wants, but human needs.

When it comes down to it, we really don't know much about this handsome virus. What you do know, however, is that the words you are reading are true because they are on the Internet and written by me, a real doctor who is not a coronavirus that evolved and gained the ability to write complete sentences. Please feel free to share this information in the most convenient way possible: by printing it out, writing it down, sealing it in an envelope by licking it, and then spitting all over your mail carrier.

CULTURE MUSINGS: How is the new Aladdin different from the original?

This Memorial Day weekend, Disney released Aladdin, the live-action version of one of its most popular movies based on the life of U.S. President Warren G. Harding's youngest son. While the adaption mostly stays true to the original, some eagle-eyed fans might have noticed these changes in Guy Ritchie's remake. The events of the live action film do not end up causing the Hindenburg disaster. It is heavily implied in the 1992  Aladdin  film that the main character inadvertently creates a chain reaction through history that end up resulting in the 1937 explosion of the Hindenburg, starting with a chase scene at the beginning of the film. As Aladdin runs from palace guards, he bumps into a man who looks very similar to Ludwig Durr, the designer of the Hindenburg. John Musker and Ron Clements, the directors of the animated film, confirmed in several interviews that the man is indeed the airship designer's ancestor, and that Aladdin's collision with him has dire conse...

5 tips for being an introvert and still leading an active social life

A lot of people think being an introvert means you are anti-social. You tell them that you’re an introvert, and they’ll say something like, “Oh, you must hate people,” or “Please don’t consume my blood!” While these comments are frustrating, it’s important to remember that being an introvert is nothing to be ashamed of - it just means you live a lifestyle that’s a little different from that of humans that still have beating hearts. As an introvert, you know that self care is important - so here are five tips to keep you functioning! Don't be afraid to say no! Here's something I wish I was told more when I was growing up: if someone asks you to hang out at a restaurant that has garlic or mirrors, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO. Not everyone enjoys looking for their reflection, only to see the blank wall behind them, reminding you that you don't have a soul - and that's okay! Telling someone that you can't hang out doesn't make you heartless - the curse that trappe...

My vacation!

I don't get to travel much, but when I do I never know the best way to share my journey. Twitter doesn't give you enough characters, and Facebook is too filled with political posts these days. Instagram banned me for direct messaging photos of my feet to celebrities, so I decided to share my adventures on my blog. I hope you enjoy! Have you ever seen anything so stunning? I haven't because my eyes melted. When I arrived I was immediately taken aback by the view! While I had heard that the scenery would blow me away, I didn't think that my skin would literally fall off of my bones! Found some unwelcome creatures where I stayed... I wish the hotel I stayed at had called an exterminator before I arrived... yuck! The facility was otherwise fine (though the pool of eternally burning fire could have been a little bigger), but I CANNOT stand finding critters where I sleep. I'm sure you wouldn't be able to sleep either if you had these guys crawling under your...
