Another holiday in full “lockdown.” Yet, the masses of rank-and file peons are out ... shopping. After all, that’s all there is to do. Only supermarkets, convenience stores, take-out eateries, Target®, Walmart®, and Longs® are open. Yet, the crowds have dared to defy the “authorities,” albeit “safely” with face masks, plastic face shields, and blue rubber gloves. And, for what? To purchase more useless junk and junk food to occupy their idle moments and empty lives?
Gatherings are strictly limited to five people even inside their mausoleums, and visitors are required to wear face masks. People are encouraged to report any violations to the “authorities” immediately. What happens when “lockdown” continues on-and-off through the family holidays in the coming months? Surely, there will be “big trouble” ahead.
Miscellany: Austerity measures continue to remain in effect. Purchases are limited to essentials only (or provides some form of utility).
