    It’s official, I’ve turned into my grandmother—who lived through World War II. Product came with long and strong twisty-tie thingies (scientific term!) and I saved them thinking I can put them inside bias tape on top of homemade masks for better nose fit.😬 What are you saving?

        I am hoping I can disassemble Cat-5 cables to make mask holders.

        Thanks, I wrote a New York Times op-ed on the topic. I'm hoping to have the medical community convince the CDC and other officials to adjust their messaging.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/17/opinion/coronavirus-face-masks.html …

        Every penny, anything that could have further use. My grandparents lived through WW2 and they raised me in part, so my semi-hoarding tendencies finally have their time to shine!

        Ziploc freezer bag. We were literally talking about how we just turned into our bag-saving grandparents. I'm not looking forward to the next chapter of this re-run. Too many charismatic disenfranchise alt-right twitter furries are writing medium posts about their struggle.
