Targets that look like "Karen"

I just read this on r/homeless on Reddit:

"I was sitting here at Walmart (not even talking to anyone) and a young lady walked up to me with her phone and recorded me. She asked why I was pretending to be homeless and if I was planning to "pay people back" I walked away to the other door but she followed me then proceeded to call 911 because she wanted me to be put in jail for pretending to be homeless. 2 cops showed up and said if she made them come back she would be going to jail tonight.
"but he's using a cell phone you can tell he's just pretending to be homeless" Really.... I mean she's not really old I assume she knows how phones work. How is it fair that people that dense get to sleep in a bed at night while I'm out here fighting for a dry spot."

This just burns me up. At any shooting range, you'll often see targets not only with round spots etc but they'll generally have "bad guy" targets, looking like a white thug out of a 1940s movie. If you've been to a range you've seen 'em. Well, I think they should have targets that look like a "Karen" because "Karens" get a lot of people injured or killed. Goddamn I hate Karens. 

OK so that out of my system .... I woke up at about 2, had my iced coffee and vitamins and so on, then packed some things ideally I'd have packed last night, making a total of 26 things this trip. It was all post office too, which allowed me to leave at 6 instead of at 5, because FedEx closes at 6.

H Mart yielded me a bunch of celery and a bag of litchi, now, I don't usually eat fruit but it's a long time since I've had litchi and it's really expensive here on the mainland too. I found odds and ends for packing on my route back home, and behind the drone place  I found they'd tossed out tons of small boxes and some "Otter Box" phone cases too. It was more than I could carry. I left those there, and continued my route, picking up a red bell pepper and a small poblano from the place by Grill 'Em. I got back here and put things away, and headed out with the trailer and a big box on it, and went and got those boxes. There were some nifty flat mailers too, good for mailing thin manuals and things like that. My haul filled the big box.

Cold and foggy Friday

 I woke up around 11, and even around noon it's foggy and dark.  I should mention that "dead internet theory", the theory that...
