You know the toilet paper thing was all in people's heads? Turns out there was a perception of a shortage because packs of toilet paper are so bulky that it doesn't take much to empty the shelves. There is no real shortage at any point, just the image of empty shelves created a panic.

True story.

And just so I’m not mistaken for a cold hearted bastard every single one of those impassioned protestors went home and also ate a meal from a restaurant prepared by a person who dreams of having the rights the eater has

Doesn’t mean we should t be striving for better

If it makes you feel better, I don’t think you’re mistaken.

I always knew there was a stark divide between the haves and have-nots, but social media is shoving that reality in my face every minute of every day.

I'm walking around my (suburban!) town and people are out eating and drinking as though there weren'tprotests and riots in nearly every city in this country last night. I felt this palpable sense of disgust looking at them. But I am not angry at them so much as I am angry at my own cynicism.

I feel helpless. Nothing seems to matter anymore and I am starting to wonder if anything ever mattered. Because what happens when the riots are over? Are people going to stop killing each other? No. Is life going to be even incrementally better for the neighborhoods hit hardest by the riots? No. Nothing is going to get better because people don't want things to get better. We want to horde our resources. accumulate things, and defend what little we have the the exclusion of anything else. Nothing else matters. Community is an illusion.

So call me a burrito, simp, whatever. I am done giving a shit because everyone else has.

Peace and love.

suburbs win again...

I feel you. I've never felt more hopeless or defeated about this country than I do now. We've been rotting from the inside out for so long and it finally caved in. I don't think there's a day that goes by anymore where I don't think about death. I'm sick of thinking about death but I can't help thinking about not being alive anymore.

We are wallowing in our own decadence, and creating a crisis to occupy our boredom.

It's easy to stop caring and not give a shit. Seemingly most of this country has already done so.

Been reading about shit like this for the past 20 years, all the while thinking, Nah, that'll never happen!.

However, now that it is, a have an incredible sense of calm, as I have already done the mental freak-out exercise years ago.

Now, its just about protecting my family and loved ones.

People who don't think things through before committing violent acts have to be put down. Period. Sociopaths are much more deadly than any virus.

That said, if I could move my family to a beautiful island right now and not worry about work, money, or dealing with all of these lazy ass, reckless, selfish looters, rioters, and chaos-inciters it would be excellent.

If you need something to cheer you up though, check out some of the pics on this gal's profile:

You have to do something. You have to take a chance. You do have to get involved. There are people that are having... having trouble making their miracle happen. There are people that don't have enough to eat, or people that are cold. You can go out and say hello to these people. You can take an old blanket out of the closet and say "Here!", you can make them a sandwich and say "Oh, by the way, here!" I... I get it now! And if you... if you give, then it can happen, then the miracle can happen to you! It's not just the poor and the hungry, it's everybody's who's gotta have this miracle! And it can happen tonight for all of you! If you believe in this spirit thing, the miracle will happen and then you'll want it to happen again tomorrow.

Really? It seems to me the exact opposite is true. I'm thrilled with the level of care shown by people over the past 3 months.

Unless you mean people caring about the narcissism of the selfie. That is long past.

Come-on now. Don't be wusses. There are a shit load more of good people out there than bad people and the good will overcome the bad. Fuck the bad right in the damned ass. Go for a walk. talk to a neighbor. GET A HOBBY. Help someone that needs help. Shit like that. Throw the politics away because they pretty much all suck in one way or the other. Just find something to laugh about and look after those near to you. That's all it takes
