Funny, I thought it just sounded pathetic.
Yeah right. The governments and big businesses don’t give a shit as long as profits are currently flowing.
Similarly, I enjoyed cheap sake until I had expensive sake. I was better off before!
Similar for me, except I’m just an avid home cook. I can make so many things better at home that I won’t eat them anywhere else anymore.
I developed a neurological condition which caused me to have a significantly lower tolerance to spicy foods suddenly. So sad.
Meanwhile, I’ve only ever had one that encouraged taking breaks.
I remember asking about breaks before accepting a job and explaining that I take a 10-minute walk every afternoon. I was assured that was fine! Until I was working the job and actually did so every day. Then it wasn’t fine.
At a low paying non-profit, no less.
And that lunch hour is unpaid.
No. Some jobs are hourly and some are salary.
Poor introverts in this scenario.
I generally don’t really care but am happy for them. I very much care about them getting new dogs, though. Send me all the dog stuff.
Sure, buddy. Whatever you say.
Bird-watching is very relaxing and surprisingly engaging. You get to know your local birds as individuals with personalities. It’s pretty neat.
Slightly more active, but not by much, raising native bees is low effort and it can be enjoyable to watch the bees go about their business in your garden or yard, assuming you have flowers. In fact, once you get the bees, you might become more interested in gardening because you need to get some nice flowers for the bees, naturally.
You could do like I’ve done–raise native bees. I don’t know where you are, but in my area, mason bees and leafcutter bees are both native, solitary species. This means that they don’t create hives but rather nest in holes/tubes. There’s no queen. No honey. Very little work compared to keeping honeybees and better for the environment (assuming honeybees are not native to your area).
As a bonus, if you grow any plants, they make great pollinators. And when you first get the bees and they emerge from their cocoons, they are tiny and adorable and a joy to watch. They’re also very passive and almost never sting.
Not for everything! I find that hobbies which are based around nature tends to have very welcoming and helpful communities online. Gardening, bird watching, hydroponics, that sort of thing.
To be fair, we really ought to scale back the dairy industry. Some things should be more expensive than they currently are. You don’t need milk. It’s a luxury good. The idea that you need milk for calcium is a myth spread by the dairy industry.
The response to my comment suggests you’re right on that.
“Advocating for protecting a peaceful allied democracy, which has been actively fighting to improve its democratic system and root out corruption for years, from being destroyed and annexed by one of our two notable national enemies? Preposterous!”
It’s not as though the US is actually losing money over this. We’re making weapon sales and using old lend lease practices. And when the war is over, and Putin’s regime pushed out, investment in the country would also be lucrative. There is no reason for the US not to want Ukraine to survive.
On top of that, again, these are peaceful, innocent people (who willingly gave up nuclear weapon technology in order to achieve that peace), who are now being invaded and slaughtered by a foreign nation. Having their children abducted and indoctrinated into the idea that there is no Ukraine. It’s genocide.
I’m going to have to disagree with you there. This is something that should be common sense or taught by parents. Public schools should not be touching subjects such as “should I light explosives on my body”.
