"This is America."

COULD place one "in fear of imminent bodily harm", so---

and I was at one end of an aisle looking at a cluster of people down at the other end, in front of some products I had on my list, I briefly thought about faking a cough to see how quickly that cluster would clear out. I decided the better plan would be to make a U-turn and come back to that aisle later.

I used to cough to cover a fart; now I fart to cover a cough.

Considering there's a possibility of going full-on apocalypto at any point. I think most know what the right thing is, especially when our family's and community's safety is on the line. I'm more heartened by the generous acts of kindness and caring we're seeing everywhere.

I'm surprised it hasn't happened before the pandemic.
