This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Sophia, I tried one of my cards at the pharmacy last night and it worked, so maybe it's a specific processing service that's having issues.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On the upside, I think I'm ready for the fall of civilization. I just had soup for lunch that I made yesterday using broth I made from veg scraps, with bread I made on the side. Granted, I'm still relying on the supermarket, but some of my neighbors garden, and I'm pretty sure one still has chickens, so we can make it together.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It seems like there should be at least one involuntary manslaughter charge, but my law degree is from Law and Order.

As a graduate of the same fine institution I'm pretty sure they should threaten all of them with it and see who flips on the rest first.

Chris, I was able to use my card at my corner store, so I agree. It is something with Instacart. Unfortunately, I mostly need Instacart!

Wow Jesse. That’s way more with it than I am. Yesterday I had soylent for lunch, with some pirate booty. And then for dinner reheated French fries and Brussels sprouts from my takeout the night before. And then a bowl of cereal for dessert. ...this is why having children always seemed scary to me. I can’t feed myself, how could I feed a child healthily?

Yeah, that's terrible. Instacart is pretty important for a lot of people! And I can't imagine they accept cash.

I mean, that seems like a pretty healthy day for an adult or a child, so I think you're OK!

I am heavily reliant on DoorDash to feed myself this week. I do not expect to prosper with the fall of civilization. Or with any glitches with epayments.

Is it wrong that I hope Adam Schiff has a degree from Law & Order as well? He has to have checked it out, right? I guess it wouldn't really make a difference for general population of insurrectionists, but still. I'm reading his statement thing right now, good stuff.

I will never get over there being a real elected official named Adam Schiff.
