Here's something I find rather troubling. My Boomer auntie, who is used to getting everything she wants, doesn't seem to grasp that she may no longer be able to do so. I described to her the situation at the two Walmarts and Dollar General on Saturday and expressed my concern about not being able to get everything she needs on Sunday. Her nonchalant answer was: "If Walmart doesn't have it, try Brookshire's." As if it made a difference which fucking store I went to.
Fortunately for her, she didn't need meat or bottled water or toilet paper this time. Just little bullshit first world items that nobody is binge buying. But she will need those things eventually. And she may be in for a rude awakening.
