I keep butting my head up against how much TIME quarantine sucks up. Everything takes so much longer than before, and I didn& #39;t have a lot of "free" time before this.
Your Walmart delivery order (which you& #39;re paying extra for because you& #39;re a vulnerable population, aka Disability Tax) had 7 items "out of stock" (were they really out of stock? who knows.) so now you have to search Amazon Fresh for them.
We spent all of today--ALL of today--driving to two different Asian markets on opposite sides of town looking for rice. Not complaining here, just... it takes so much time. So much time and extra money.
I feel guilty that I& #39;m not writing more for my readers and my patreon--income that keeps us literally alive! which, BY THE WAY, THANK YOU!!!!--but, like. *helpless gesture* When? In between the extra baths and showers, the extra shopping time, the extra drives, the everything.
And we don& #39;t even break quarantine that often! Just when we need food! Food! But everything takes so much time, it& #39;s like I& #39;m moving through molasses.
I feel disconnected from reality.
It shouldn& #39;t take an hour or more to throw 7 things into an Amazon cart. (Related: Why show me "out of stock" items, it is emotionally DRAINING to see all the things I need but cannot buy.)
And then you have the disconnect of Walmart& #39;s site showing things "out of stock" at our local store when they really aren& #39;t. I do not blame the employees, who deserve my support!! But it means vulnerable people can& #39;t get the things we need, while the healthy (or reckless) can.
Every white person at the Asian market wasn& #39;t wearing a mask, by the way, except Kissmate and me. I was so upset.
