cashewPeople are panic buying toilet paper.
#panicbuying is a trending hashtag.
#panickbuyinguk is a trending hashtag in the UK, because in addition to panicking, they also can't spell.
#coronapocalypse is a top trending hastag.
I'm...actually just morbidly amused at all of this, because the people who are most likely to get affected and impacted by this outbreak are probably the least likely to be using Twitter right now. Like, some people might be genuinely trying to raise awareness (and kudos to them), but way more are just being trend chasers and probably not even wiping down their keyboards to help slow the rate of infection.
Here, look at this adorable hamster and stop freaking out.
