Ah yes, the Cruz Cruise Index.
At least we haven't reached the 4th level: Ted Cruz has been forced to return from vacation.

That's after it's all over.
I personally prefer the Waffle House Index because unlike Ted their workers are heroes willing to stay and serve through some nasty disasters.
The PPI (Pentagon Pizza Index [Link] - I wish they were not sponsored by polymarket... But ya got to keep the lights on...) is the latest of my new favorite silly OsInt tools. When shit is going down, a cartoonish amount of pizza gets ordered because people are stuck at the office late into the evenings.
And its not just governments, people were preparing for Valve's upcoming Deadlock update hours in advance because we saw a spike in pizza orders for the staff overnight through each major chains online activity maps.
This is what Waffle House use to decide to close stores.
