Go ahead, enjoy your memes

Taking a break to view and share bits of cute and funny pop culture can address pandemic stress.

Zoom meeting after Zoom meeting, while trying to feed, entertain and beg-to-sleep an infant whose day care had closed, I needed a break but couldn’t really take one in April of 2020. Enter memes. Between work, moving the laundry and taking care of my own dogs, I could sneak a peak at Instagram and chuckle at images of very excited pups , psyched that their humans were now home all day, every day.
