With the global pandemic leading to lockdowns in countries all around the world, many people are dealing with the effects of boredom.

So, what can you do to keep yourself busy while stuck at home? Here are some top entertainment ideas to keep you off the streets and safe from the virus.

Stream on Netflix

For $9 per month, you can have access to all your favorite TV shows and movies. Netflix is incredibly good value for money, and there are thousands of titles available to keep you busy all day.

Our favorite show right now is season 3 of Ozark, and we can’t wait to see what Marty does next.

Download from Streaming Sites

If you don’t have streaming accounts, but want to watch the latest movies and series, then download torrents instead.

Downloading torrent is a bit risky for your machine, so make sure you have good anti-virus and use a VPN while browsing.

Subscribe to New YouTube Channels

YouTube is a great free source of entertainment. There’s everything you can imagine on YouTube.

Browse videos of news and current events, learn a new skill in an instructional video, or watch your favorite celebrities’ daily vlog.

Swipe through Instagram

If you’re lying on the couch and need something to do, swipe your way through your Instagram feed.

With so many people on lockdown all over the world, there’s tons of available content.

Join a New Platform

If Instagram is getting boring, try your luck at setting up an account on another social platform.

Tik Tok is fast becoming the go-to site for many new internet video creators. Give it a try and get on board early.

Get Naughty

Unfortunately, meeting other people during lockdowns and social distancing is next to impossible.

If you’re feeling horny, but there’s no partner around for you to please, try looking up a few Free Live Sex Cams for some innocent fun.

Read a Book

When tech starts to get you down, and you feel like you can’t take staring at a screen any longer – do what they did back in the times of the last pandemic, read a book.

Catch up on those titles you’ve been keeping on the shelf for the last few years.

Build a Fire

If you live outside of the city, build a fire tonight. Sit around and have a chat with your family as you watch the flames dance in the night air.

Adopt a Pet

Many singles find themselves lonely during this time. If that’s the case for you, adopt a pet.

There are plenty of shelters with needy animals looking for care. Use this time to give back and adopt an animal.

In Closing – Talk to Somebody

Being stuck indoors with no-one to talk to can start to take a toll on your mental health.

If you find yourself talking to the cat more often, call someone to talk. If you don’t have any friends or family you can call, arrange to speak to a clinical psychologist.
