        For real. Buying groceries is increasingly stressful. Folk tend to reach into personal space of others, leave their carts in intersections, and generally not give a damn about the person next to them.

        I take it very slow and skip the aisle I kind of wanted something from if I see a complication I’d rather not deal with.

        We never see ourselves as part of the problem. It isn’t easy, though.

          I have perceived such a development too, but I think it’s just that our minds have been warped by the pandemic. During which we did change a lot of our social norms but many people went back to disregarding personal space while others became very aware of it.
