Being self-isolated is having a weird effect on everyone.

But while regularly chronicling her time home alone, Naomi Watts shared how frustrating it is for multiple appliances to break down on the same day.


Her Instagram posts documenting her isolation have been incredibly human, honest, and at times hilarious.

For example, she shared the story of having dinner with her adorable dog, even though she doesn't see herself as much of a cook.

Watts reminded us of the importance of staying strong, in her case, through yoga.

There was a dance party with her plants.

Later, Watts stated the importance of by expressing our emotions by diving into a red velvet cake.

But Watts's story took a turn. On what seems to have been a pretty terrible Tuesday, Watts shared a slow-motion video of herself screaming, dubbed over with a movie monster-like roar (dare we say, King Kong?)

Watts captioned the video:

"Quarantine Day #756: When your printer, vacuum cleaner and dishwasher all break in the same day.... FFS."

Having so many things stop working on the same day must have been truly frustrating and Watts's Instagram followers were feeling her pain.

Some have shared their own breakdowns and headaches that have occurred during their prolonged stays at home.

Who knows what other antics and complications will occur in any of our lives throughout the rest of our time at home, but we can count on one thing: Naomi Watts will probably keep us informed of hers on Instagram, and we could not be more ready for them.

Andrew Cuomo Slammed After Campaign Posts Racist AI Video Of 'Criminals For Zohran Mamdani'

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was criticized after his official social media pages shared—then quickly deleted—an AI-generated campaign ad depicting "Criminals for Zohran Mamdani," his democratic socialist opponent.

Mamdani handily defeated Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary in June, sparking racist and Islamophobic backlash from right-wingers who've claimed his policies would "destroy" the city. The latest polls show Mamdani has a double-digit lead over Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who is facing calls to drop out.

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.
