  • Haha sure, with some help it could work

    • Romanticizing solarpunk

  • (Young) people often idealize the idea of going off grid or starting an organic farm or starting a commune to get out of corporate, but how connected is their fantasy to reality if their biggest hunt and harvest is a supermarket delivery app? That being said, knowing basic skills that may fall into the tradwife range (cooking, cleaning, sewing etc) can give you that ounce of freedom from super systemic dependence to build a realistic life venturing outside the confines of cyclical capitalism.

    • Do Americans still have freeze peaches and bear arms as promised by the constitution?

    Jump

  • That’s why I have a sudden urges to buy peaches to freeze!! Mystery solved.

    • You really do

  • This is so cute! I love it.

    • you're responsible for a family member with dementia who forgets he has weak legs and falls, often breaking his nose, eye orbits and hands. what's your solution?

    1. I’d want a list of all the medicine he is taking to see if drug interactions are causing him to feel dizzy or have balance issues for example. 2. If money were no object I’d assemble an in-home care team. 3. Each care facility is different and doing research into their own staffing minimums would be a great start. Many often cater to the adult children’s idea of a good place to live, not what the older adult has in mind (ie: sustained independence and person-centered care). 4. Regardless it’s difficult and caregiver burnout is a real thing. Take care of yourself.

    • What are your strategies for food security in these troubled times?

    Jump

  • I go with more hardy food options (ie: potatoes, onions, carrots) that don’t need refrigeration. Fresh herbs can be dried for long lasting tea or spice ingredients. Also just for the ease of cooking basic dishes that can be made into a variety of things (boiled chicken, mashed potatoes, baked beans) are helpful to have and use as well.

    • What clothing do you like wearing but is heavily associate to your opposite gender?

    Jump

  • Big fashion uses small pockets to sell more! I didn’t know that but it makes sense. It explains why gendered clothing is such a thing in the first place. More $$$

    • What clothing do you like wearing but is heavily associate to your opposite gender?

    Jump

  • -Men’s tank tops! They’re better material-wise and longer Also I agree on the pockets 100%. Women only need to carry pebbles and pennies apparently.

    • do you consider joking about dying and killing oneself a sign that the person saying it is troubled?

    Jump

  • Check out passive vs active suicidal ideation. The frequency of jokes sounds alarming, although I’m not sure if the intent is there.

    • Bad Bunny Says He Didn't Include U.S. Tour Dates for Fear of ICE Raids

    Jump

  • I’m not surprised and a good way to protest the current political climate too.

    • best comment under a video about the new iphone 17

    Jump

  • The only thing I’m looking forward to is the possibility of OLED in a MacBook next year.
