"Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago" is gonna get thrown around a lot this cycle and somehow it's gonna be about the price of gas and eggs, and not how we ran out of space in the morgues and had to stack bodies like firewood in vans in central park
Trump didn't just screw up the economy. He let many thousands die bc he couldn't be bothered abt their safety. Never was there any doubt that COVID could be extremely dangerous. On Jan. 1 2020, reading a news report abt the new disease in China, I realized we could face a world pandemic in months.

In early April 2020 I got a hot tip that a corner store about a mile from me had toilet paper - kept behind the counter, you had to know to ask for it. Went there and paid $3/roll and felt like I won the lottery bsky.app/profile/blak...
Four years ago we were clubbing toilet paper hoarders over the head in the streets. I’d say we’re light years better off.

I'm really enjoying how this kicked off a bunch of personal stories about TP supplies 😆

I was lucky to buy some for home and shop before this all went down. Then an employee started to give it to his buds. Somehow I became an asshole when I said he needed to stop giving it away and maybe replace it.
