フードバンクに並ぶ自動車の列が1km近くになっているらしい。「これがトランプのアメリカだ」「S&P500の収益は向上しているのでアメリカ経済はグレートとトランプはいっているが」みたいなレスポンスが並ぶ。いずれにしてもヤバイことになっているのが視覚化されている。 twitter.com/Jaaavis/status…

2020-09-12 03:52:09@Jaaavis The Board of Supervisors just gave the food bank $500,000 in CARES Act money. It was supposed to buy 6 months worth of food. At this rate I’m thinking no chance it lasts that long. So much need in the county these days. 😳
2020-09-12 03:57:12@jmcconnell70 Yeah man I was surprised. No way it lasts that long without a ton of donations. They have had a big sign up thanking Denny Hamlin for donating so idk what that was
2020-09-12 03:59:44@Jaaavis He got FedEx to drop a huge donation on the food bank a while back. Can’t remember the details but it was substantial.
2020-09-12 04:00:56@Jaaavis @FeedMoreInc is there a better process for this? Seems like even if there are enough supplies, people are going to be in line for 4 hours.
2020-09-12 04:24:08I just measured it driving back by and it is .6 of a mile right now
2020-09-12 04:25:36@Jaaavis Omg! This is a huge deal for Chesterfield...like wow! I use to live in Chesterfield.
2020-09-12 04:28:10@Jaaavis Jesus! This is heartbreaking.
2020-09-12 06:34:40@reneeyrobinson @Jaaavis It’s because food pantry locations and pick up times are extremely limited and we have a HUGE volume of people who need help due to Covid job losses and increased costs of living during Covid. They also try on donations, pantries are strained all the time.
2020-09-12 20:52:35@reneeyrobinson @Jaaavis People who live near a food bank, and not a community pantry often prefer that location because you get lucky and are able to get produce and milk. Community pantries, like the ones you find at churches, rarely have much more than limited shelf stable items.
2020-09-12 20:54:08@MidloModerate @Jaaavis @henricoblue Hashtags don’t feed people. Food insecurity has existed to a significant degree under every administration regardless of party affiliation.
2020-09-12 20:55:14@Jaaavis Are you seeing this @DavidBegnaud @DavidMuir
2020-09-12 23:18:31@Jaaavis People please give to our fellow Americans whatever you can.
2020-09-12 23:19:46@Jaaavis There must be a way to expand it to more locations. We can solve that part of the problem as communities.
2020-09-12 23:20:09@Jaaavis @sarajust I just made another contribution to the NW NC Food Bank upon seeing this . We are in this together.
