This is vent art.

Today I headed out to try and find by PURE DUMB LUCK some hand sanitizer or bleach. Plus I was seriously craving to obtain something thats NOT peanut butter, but deli meat.

I hit four grocery stores. Not ONE place had any toilet paper, not even the crappy single ply single rolls. ZERO kleenix tissues, paper towels, wipes, even baby wipes. Also ZERO beans, rice, pasta, many canned foods. The deli meats were scarce and what they had was double the price from last week. (Oddly Vegan stock had full shelves!)

No, I got zero deli meat, too broke to afford the deli prices. My shop I work at has seriously felt the effects of the panic and a serious drop in business. I'm financially in panic mode myself!

Oh and the regular luncheon meats were depleted as well. Only chicken stock like Tysons chicken was the crappy, made from ground up bits left over from processing shaped like dinosaurs nuggets that taste like shit anyway. And I cannot afford to buy butcher fresh cuts!

Welcome to New Venezuela!! Thats right, its starting to look like photos of grocery stores in Venezuela...or North Korea (not government run propaganda stores the NK handlers take Western visitors too!).

No, assholes are in panic mode thanks to the media hype and inflated paranoia and grabbing anything and everything, and worse yet, in multiples beyond reasonable needs. And worse yet, scalpers of said hard to find items!! War Profiteers I recall the terminology was once used 70 plus years ago. Whats next? Actual rationing? Lines to buy certain things daily?

Use some damn sense people!! STOP HOARDING!!! STOP BEING OVERLY PARANOID!!

Cause otherwise its going to be Beyond Thunderdome if the assholishness continues!!
