  • I kinda think it would have been a better investment if they created some sort of local farm, of some kind.

    It doesn't help with name brand products, but it would give the community fresh food, some employment, and some extra revenue. Dry goods and other products are deliverable, and much of it is not required for survival. I mean we are talking food deserts.

    They could experiment with which farming techniques would be better suited to carry us into out changing climate. Maybe become a model for other farms to follow.

  • There was a Curious George episode where George used a skyscrapers (under construction, of course) floor to ceiling wrap around windows to create a vegetable garden so the restaurant down the street had fresh produce.

    It wasn't a bad idea, minus the water damage. Just make a 3 ft planter along all the windows, instead of a window ledge or something, and you would have a ton of food.

  • This explains so much!

    It always seriously stumped me as to how Bowie was so good at that. Like did he learn it for the movie? If so, was he practicing all the time, because the movements are seriously flawless. I can't believe I never thought of this.

    You have solved one of the great mysteries that has followed me through my life, but apparently never thought to look up.

  • Even if people knew how much they were getting ripped off, what are they supposed to do about it? What is the alternative?

    If every brand of bread in the store is sold at a insane markup, and you need bread, what do you? Make your own? That's a hit or miss process that can take a while if you don't have a fancy bread maker. They either need to save to get a bread maker or find time between their maybe 2 or 3 jobs to make the bread.

  • Since this is from MSNBC...

    This is Rachel Maddows take on this as well. Essentially that states will refuse to certify the results.

    They tried to do it last election, but weren't really prepared. This time, they feel they've got this on lock.

  • What if he doesn't mean that he's going to be a dictator. What if he means he will purge the country of anyone that doesn't think like him and his followers, therefore they never have to vote again because everyone will be on the same page. J/k...mostly

  • Nah, it's good. No pressure. These are just resources that I kinda had to stumble across, although im sure theyre in some super accessible place and im just a ding dong. Figured if they could help another person, then so be it.

    It's hard times right now, you do what you gotta do to keep on keeping on. Lemmy.world is a completely fine choice. They're a large, mainstream place to get comfortable in. But, if you get bored one day and want to check out what else is out there, you've got something to get you started.

    I wish you luck, some free time, and some peace of mind.

  • If you ever decide you want to branch out, you can try the instance / community browser at https://lemmyverse.net to check out whats out there.

    I will say that although it technically doesnt matter what instance you sign up with, sometimes the descriptions aren't very descriptive at all. Definitely give an instance a browse, to get a feel for the overall vibe, before you sign up.

    You can check to see if an instance has been defederated from / by other instances, by entering said instance address at https://defed.xyz/
