I'm no prepper, but good lord am I glad that we decided to quintuple our normal weekly grocery run on Friday. Guess we got way ahead of the rush.

If anything, this self-quarantine is gonna save me money from being tempted to spend :10bux: on lunches during the week Got a couple loaves of bread baking, a pot of chili, and a pot of soup going right now. Gonna be eating good next week hell yeah.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

wasn't there a burning chemical plant throwing a huge cloud of cancer doom molecules all over the city for like days and weeks on end there too? or was that Dallas?

Definitely Houston.

Something like 12 building sized tanks of benzene containing gasoline additives caught fire because regulations are for communists.

Then they put it out with toxic fire retardant foam but the berm they used to keep it from spilling into the ship channel broke so a ridiculous quantity of toxic sludge mixture spilled into the ocean and killed a bunch of fish and crabs.

But it's all cool and legal, they'll fine them like $250k and call it even

Did some prepping this week and reorganization/inventory of my pantry. Grocery stores in my part of Indiana are the usual level of business so no panic hoarding yet. Got 25 lbs of rice, 12 lbs of assorted beans, 6 lbs of pasta, 6 lbs of hominy, assorted canned beans and vegetables, a bunch of frozen meat including a whole turkey from 2019, and stocked up on toilet paper, cooking oil, cat food, etc. Convinced my parents to do the same, though my dad was harder to sell on it "because theres no panic here yet" and I had to convince him that the best time to buy stuff is before the store has a run on it.
