More and more, I get the impression that some people are misunderstanding the current situation as "make life as miserable as possible for everybody, and if you manage to still have any fun, you're doing something morally wrong".
Yes, I get that the situation sucks for a whole lot of people, be it overworked healthcare workers, people having to go to work with lacking (or no) protection, people who've lost part or all of their income, and of course last but absolutely not least the people actually sick or dying of the damn virus, and their family / friends etc. It certainly is not a happy time for a lot of people.
But no, this does not mean that everybody has to be miserable to show solidarity. If you can have fun in a way that is not a big risk to others - be it baking cakes, going for a solo cycle, or knitting -, that is fine. FFS.
Yeah I guess the argument should be for how many times a week people are shopping, not what they're buying and snooping in trollies.
I mean bread ok, but cake too profligate? People need to stay sane and enjoy their day too, even if just cooking/eating/drinking something nice.
