Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.
I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.
And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.
So, uh, yeah.
Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.

This is crazy indeed and will have huge effects on the whole world economy.

@masek Yeah, I found that reddit post in my search before posting. The other pages are about how clerks should help customers deal with the shortage, not the shortage itself, so weren't relevant to the shortage issue I was talking about. So I didn't bother including them.
(Just like you didn't need to bother being kind of a dick about it.)
It also doesn't address the validity question. If you check the thread you yourself linked, there are people who claim they used to work at AutoZone who say this memo is out of character for the company. Despite that, I still don't _think_ this is disinformation - but I still don't _know_ it isn't.
Not sure if it particular memo is real or not. However there appears to be reporting of constraints in lubricants.
Warnings from Shell, Valvoline, O'Reilly Automotive , Toyota and Nissan.
Cause is the base stock drying up to make synthetic lubs.

How can an oil crisis trigger a shortage of synthetic motor oil? The answer is "base stock."

No I don’t. But enough of you guys voted for that guy to put him in the WH (or did not bothered to vote)And he most likely will have destroyed your country this time. I don’t see the states getting trust back for the coming decades
@Tijgertje1987 American Cascadia voted overwhelmingly for Harris, against him. We also voted for Biden, and Clinton. It was never close.
This highlights how the US _really isn't_ one political state, and how this is a long cold civil war where our side lost a real big round, partly because the ultrarich went _all in_ with the fash, e.g. buying Twitter to turn it into a fash propaganda and disinfo fountain.
Hence how he tries to destroy us when he remembers we exist. He hates us, too.
None of this means you should trust the US after this, of course. Foreign policy consensus has been shattered; you _shouldn't_, and _can't_.
But it's like... just a little like...
...please don't hate Scotland for England's votes.
It's a little like that.

Personally I think it will be a good thing when the USA goes bankrupt and falls apart and not just for the world.Then the non-racist states can band together and create a better country

@Tijgertje1987 The biggest reason I _have not been_ a Cascadian separatist is because of what the neo-Confederate states would do with a free hand.
So be careful what you ask for, you might get it.
(Something called the Cascadian Subduction Zone is the other big reason. Look it up.)

I'd just prefer not to have to make that choice.

@marjolica Chain lubes aren't oil based. At least, not ones worth even a fraction of their price. (They exist but they're absolute shit tier.) Everything even halfway decent is some kind of wax-based.
But yes, I am stocked up even on that.

Petroleum based waxes?

Petroleum based waxes?
@SuperMoosie @marjolica Actually, good question! I've categorised waxes separately and mine are all biodegradable but I can't say they're not, I don't know the manufacturing process.

That reads fake to me, it's talking to franchisees like they're humans deserving of respect and information.
Does not seem corporate at all.
