This is legitimately me.

Everywhere I drive right now, whether it's the grocery store or a medical appointment or otherwise - I'm constantly anxious about cars following me for too long, or weird SUVs parked near me, or what have you.

I've taken tripley long routes to normal places just to make sure I can monitor what people or vehicles are sticking by.

I've parked at my destination and then pretended to get a call and leave and then just circle around for awhile until suspicious vehicles leave.

I'm not special and many have it far worse, but this is my life now and I'm probably like a 5% on the scale of shit others have to deal with.

My brother in law runs a snow removal business, and most of his workers are Hispanic, since not a lot of people want to work strange on-call hours based on snowfall. He's basically lost his entire workforce because they're too scared to leave their houses. He guaranteed them their jobs back when things hopefully improve enough that they feel safe again, but for now he's trying to deal with a Minnesota winter with only 3 people.
