I honestly thought this map was made up.

Hundreds of supertankers, the kind that carry two million barrels each, are currently racing toward the US Gulf Coast from every direction. - JesΓΊs Enrique Rosas - The Body Language Guy @Knesix
Atlantic, Indian Ocean, around Africa, the scenic route, the "we were heading to Saudi Arabia but NVM" route. 
Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz and everyone panicked. Oil hit $126 a barrel. Gas hit $4 a gallon. 
Cable news did the thing where they put a red banner on screen and say "CRISIS" in a font that suggests you should be hoarding toilet paper. 
  • And then something happened that nobody in media seems interested in reporting, for obvious reasons. The world just... switched suppliers?...
