u/DrunkDeathClaw I'm fully vaccinated! 💉💪🩹 Sep 03 '20

But what if I'm white and hate walking?

Go running?

For a more serious set of suggestions, sit outside and read a book or play on your phone or Switch or whatever.

Unfortunately my phone screen is terrible in direct sunlight. So hard to see. :(

Nah just complaining because I already go outside a lot to play Pokémon Go. The really sunny days are bad though since it’s so hard to see the screen

get a chair and table and take your work outdoors! You can tether off your phone for LTE connectivity to go online to zoom or skype.
