    Freedom, always remember it is not free.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    Can't get any decent frozen green beans, either.

    For months the only frozen green beans at every market are these shit brands which taste lousy.

    In general, decent frozen vegetables have been very difficult to come by, at least here.

      MumblesBadly: Dude, get the fresh green beans instead. I’ve seen plenty and they are way better than frozen.

    Black peppercorns for my pepper grinder.

    I had to ask my mom to send me some.

    Surprisingly no issues with beef here. Chicken is the hardest meat to find.

    Can't comment on pre COVID but finding newborn size diapers was next to impossible in Portland. All of our friends bought us size 1's and I had to look everywhere - only to then find them at an Albertson's where they would only sell me one small pack per transaction.

    It's not. The supply chain caught up. Come July it will be like crude oil and there will be a glut. Just like the useless paper masks, to be fair I bought 100 masks a month ago for $125 and I have 97 left.

    Stop wasting your money on Vitamin C pills. A regular balanced diet gives you plenty. And taking too much of can cause some people to develop excess iron level in their blood.

    While I am quietly skeptical on the usefulness of Vitamin C to ward of disease, I also think it's possibly effective, and what seems to be certain is that small amounts you'd receive via a "balanced diet" aren't enough to get the job done if it really does help.
