Progeny

Might be a carbon and unwanted other animal species issues. Bugs, small mammals, and predators thereof. Compost is great but it’s still producing by-products. If distribution and politics could be solved (probably politics is the main barrier in distribution, followed by natural disaster, many of which are the direct result of politics), perhaps these things wouldn’t be a great concern. But I’m not a scientist.

That’s what happens to us too. 😬

That’s basically what happens to all of us!

Don’t you go givin folks ideas, now, whippersnapper!

So you’re paying through the nose. Ouch.

The employer pays half?!

Write a letter to the editors of major media outlets, including Forbes and wish. Complain bitterly about politics stifling business, innovation and your freedoms, courtesy copy your Republican and Dem representatives at state and national levels.

Most importantly, Samsung has only ever shipped batteries to iFixit that are preglued to an entire phone screen — making consumers pay over $160 even if they just want to replace a worn-out battery pack. That’s something Samsung doesn’t do with other vendors, according to Wiens. Meanwhile, iFixit’s iPhone and Pixel batteries cost more like $50.

Lol

Turns out phones need to be more servicible than lip service.

Dying of easily treatable disease because one can’t afford insulin or a healthy diet vs being loved to death? If only certain people had the choice. And I didn’t mean “loved” in the euphamistic sense.

In the backwoods, we know certain barks, leaves, roots for various ailments. We have used spider web to staunch bleeding * for superficial wounds that seem not to stop. But it’s still good to get an actual diagnosis, when affordable. If you already have a diagnosis, it helps a lot. Like common cold, allergies are one thing. Bacterial infections needing antibiotics are another.

Thank you, op, I should have said that in my other post. You are welcome, and also clever. Plus, I agree with using it until it’s plain unusable. Things are so. flipping. expensive! And it is truly a pleasure to call out genius, for once, instead of… You know, the opposite. The added bonus is, I may be able to remember this, if something breaks that can be remedied in like manner.

The simplicity and genius made me laugh. Good on you, op!

The memory hole is real.

That sounds good and quick! I’ll try it.

I hear you on budget. That’s why there’s an off brand in my pantry. My food shopping habits are curbed sharply.

I like that stirring means it’s not hydrogenated oil, it doesn’t have added sugar (probably salt, idk, I just like it), no added sweetness unless I add honey. Stirring it is a lot of work, but it is worth the better flavor and consistency, for my preferences. That said, right now I have some off brand, and an Aldi brand of natural (must stir) almond butter in my staple pantry.

ETA: oh yes, pad Thai is delicious.

Neuchatel and fruit on toast is divine.

I hear you. That said, Skippy makes a traditional (must stir) version in a glass jar. It’s decent, by our available standards (I’ve never had foreign pb). But the last time I bought Smuker’s strawberry spread it had hfcs instead of cane sugar. >:( So I went back to raw honey.
