Yet another week in quarantine. The cats have taken over. I (Jess Grey) am no longer in charge of anything but keeping them fed. They pay the bills, they even wrote this piece. OK, they didn’t. But it’d be cool if they did—with their little paws, just tick-tacking away on my keyboard. Anyway, the coronavirus pandemic wears on, at least in the US, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun. This weekend we’ve gathered deals on some killer games, some smart home devices, and even outdoor gear so you can get out there and enjoy the sun as long as you stay away from other people and wear a face mask.
