"Non-essential" retail is allowed to open again tomorrow after being closed for over a month in Austria. And everything's full of ads announcing huge fucking clearance sales. Something...something its own tail.
Freaking commercialism is absolutely running amuck. And people will flock to furniture stores to buy whatever they wish to fill the gaping hole in their soul with - potentially risking another massive increase in new infections. Not that the numbers right now are great.
This sad charade is getting absolutely disgusting and tiresome. But hey, people are losing their shit right now. How about instead of working out a comprehensive and effective plan to get the vaccinations going at a sensible pace or compensating those working tirelessly so our medical system still works accordingly, we just open all the stores again and let people substitute their lack of hope or meaningful connections with mindless consumerism?
