I've been out of sorts for a few months, like disorganized, stressed-out. I think it's inflation. It's a lot of pressure. I hate being broke all the time. But after bills, gas and groceries, there isn't much left. It sucks.

Uh oh.   Looks like the drug companies and the junk food companies are about to go to war:

Ozempic is making people buy less food, Walmart says


"....Furner said it’s too early to draw any definitive conclusions about the appetite-suppressing drugs made by Novo Nordisk A/S (NVO) (NOVO-B.CO), and similar medicines.

An increasing number of CEOs and investors are talking about how popular weight-loss drugs might change the economy and business. Earlier this week, the CEO of the maker of Pringles and Cheez-Its said the company is studying their potential impact on dietary behaviors...."
