I get the point of the article, and I'm not trying to ignore the very valid points made in it.

Just... Dollar Tree? That's your go-to image? Like am I supposed to be upset that cheaply-made plastic goods are less available? Surely they could have chosen a better image for the article.

Fully aware this is me being nitpicky.

No it’s OK I was in the same boat reading some of these. Like yes, there is absolutely going to be some necessities dry up, but I do not care one iota that disposable, wasteful cheap shit is going to go away. Oh darn! Less waste!

I’m sure I’m missing something here; like the waste will probably go elsewhere, but I’m desperate for silver linings to this hellscape.
