It's amazing the bubbles people can live in and then pretend to "understand" #Japan.

India's decision to ban the export of non-basmati rice, due to excess rain and drought in rice producing regions, has led to consumers panic-buying and stockpiling Indian rice around the world, driving up prices in the process.
In Canada, the U.S. and abroad, reports of panic-buying are flourishing on social media, with stores that cater to South Asian communities implementing caps on rice purchases.

I was proud of several things on this one. The wheelchair, the leaves, her face at that upward angle. I think she’s enjoying herself.
