I'll tell you what - I've got my own conspiracy theory!

Donald Trump took all the toilet paper (obviously)! He and the Koch Bros are in cahoots to corner the market on TP. "People are saying" that they're selling it at wildly inflated prices through gun shops, and come election time, they'll stop selling it at all, and will only give you some if you vote for Donald Trump! How diabolical! What else could it possibly be?

See, anyone can create one of these theories!

I'll make it a "documentary" and call it "The Great Toilet Paper Caper" - this could be huge!

Considerably more plausible than most on here, ala the Chinese made and released this in China to scuttle Trump's reelection.

I’m really hoping my kids have camp in July.

Anyone have plans for Memorial Day weekend? We normally go to the cape. It’s my son’s 6th bday and my 7th wedding anniversary. I think we will still go to the cape at some point but won’t be there all weekend and no big family cookout.
I have a good feeling about camps. The Y announced they'd be starting day camps on time (week of 6/22) so long as we are in phase 2. Other camps have made the same announcement. I'm still waiting on my June/July camps to let me know if they will be open in Phase 2 (so far they haven't canceled, but I want something definitive). But it's good to know that the Y and South Shore Natural Science Center are options.

come on .....

- We all know that COVID-19 originated in 5G cell phone towers

- It has since been propagated by an arms of super bats, funded by the Gates foundation.

- The inevitable mass vaccination campaign, that will be funded by Gates, will eradicate COVID-19 but will be the perfect opportunity to introduce and implant a microchip

- This will be used to create a global surveillance state that will control all future thoughts, purchasing power etc.

- I'm sure Obama is involved too but I can't prove it .... yet.

Agreed - the news is good so far - fingers crossed.

I love my kids, but .......

It's *possible* that the Chinese made the virus, but looking at the "design", that would suggest they've zoomed from comfortably behind us in life sciences to WAY WAY WAY ahead. The general confusion in Wuhan on their end makes the "evil Chinese genius" hypothesis even less plausible.

It would be a lot more helpful if you had someone who at least claims to have worked for Big Toilet Paper at some point. You know, to make the whole thing credible.

It's also *possible* that this was released accidentally from a virology research lab in Wuhan... but the idea that this is a bioweapons conspiracy being run out of well-known labs that even have had some US scientific funding is farfetched, as is the conspiracy story that China created a pandemic in their own nation, deliberately, to hurt others.
