It’s fascinating that we think there will be a gas shortage due to covid impact on available drivers but there seems to be no impact in India to our economy based on all the IT and call center work we outsource- and it’s a huge number.

I didn’t realize that the funeral pyres were how they cremated their dead normally. They are just having to do so many more of them, they’re running out of space to do it.

Takes a lot of wood, too.

That's manipulative as fuck.

Just not being able to have the right refrigeration alone is 95% of the problem that was not fixable in the window.

These articles suck when they don’t lead with the root of the issue.

Once you lead with a narrative you’ve screwed a real fix.
