Pax Corona (Latin for “Crown Peace”) describes the peace that the natural world experienced during the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic, as the global slowdown in mancer activity—due to lockdowns and quarantines—has given Mother Nature some time to take a much-needed breath of fresh air.
Between travel restrictions, reductions in public transport and overall economic activity that generates emissions—such as coal burning, refining oil, producing steel, air travel, ground transportation—the climate is getting the kind of rest from destructive mancer activity it hasn’t gotten since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. The lockdown in China (the world’s biggest emitter of greenhouse gases), for example, has cut the nation’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 100 million metric tons in just two weeks.
Pax Corona is adapted from the term “Pax Romana” (Latin for "Roman Peace"), the roughly 222-year-long period in Roman history which is identified with increased and sustained inner hegemonial peace and stability (though not meaning without wars, expansion and revolts).

While the coronavirus pandemic has caused death and chaos across the
mancer civilization, Mother Nature and non-human species are happily experiencing a Pax Corona.

Get the Pax Coronamug. The weight we will gain by not being able to get out and live our lives. We are sitting dormant, watching Netflix and drinking nightly. Instead of the Freshman Fifteen we will have the Corona Fifteen and gain weight from Boredom.
Crap I hope the Corona Fifteen does not turn in to the Corona twenty. Hopefully quarantine will be over soon.

Get the Corona Carmug. When a person is shamed for not using proper hygiene or taking the proper precautions during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Typically this is done on social media to celebrities that are closely associated with a COVID-19 case or have had the virus and do not take proper precautions to prevent the spread. While the person can be shamed for violating quarantine guidelines to do errands for which delivery is possible, or when they do not wear a mask in public places and/or do not respect the property distances, etc. But it can also be for saying something stupid like COVID-19 is just like the flu, especially when it is peaking and 2,000 people are dying.
Just after his live broadcast from his house to describe the horror of his wife getting a positive COVID-19 test result, the celebrity was found in a local Pharmacy buying sunglasses, which he could have gotten online. This caused as ruckus in the store as he was Corona-shamed by some and fawned all over by others. His loud sneeze could be seen all over social media.

Get the Corona-shamedmug. Babies born twelve to sixteen months after the start of the COVID-19 Mandatory Quarantine Pandemic. Depending on your geographic location, the start of quarantine happened anywhere from January 2020-March 2020. Many activities can happen in quarantine, such as follows: Netflix, limitless trips to the refrigerator, arts and crafts, binge drinking on a daily basis, working out, wondering where to buy toilet paper, playing music on your balcony using pots and pans with others that are quarantined, and sex. Yes, alot of sex, and most likely unprotected due to protection most likely not being at the top of the survival list of being in quarantine. The result of unprotected quarantined sex is called, a Corona Baby.
"OH my goodness, your baby is adorable, how old is he!?" " Well, he's a Corona Baby, and the year is 2025, so you do the math."

Get the Corona Babymug. When you cough near someone you fucking hate, hoping they will catch the corona virus or at least a life threatening illness because you hate them so much that you'd rather jump of a cliff instead of being around them.
