amazon is all out of faith in democracy, dammit

i'm starting to think that i shop more when i feel uncertain. i had a burst of lockdown shopping in the spring of 2020 (i think a lot of us did) and i realized that it has started again.

in the last week:

• new fitted sheets (needed them but did i really need to try out three kinds from two different vendors?)

• popsicle molds (these were unavailable during the last burst of shopping, probably due to shipping issues with China)

• a two-year subscription to Interweave Knits

• a POUND of a tea flavor i liked in a free sample

When I'm quarantining after travel is when this really gets me. (I'd do it in the before travel quarantine too, but then I don't have faith that anything will arrive before I leave.) This week I bought an air purifier, a $200 EMT textbook, a wooden training sword, and a bunch of house stuff like replacement lightbulbs and phone chargers.
