This is the way.

I am working on the same long-term plan.

Three years in and our 'self-sufficiency' is limited to about 3 weeks of food per year if we relied on our own garden/forest 100% of the time for those 3 weeks. We don't do that, but instead supplement with the garden and forest and learn more each year about what does well in our little spot.

I don't say this to dissuade - but to make sure you set proper expectations. Self-sufficiency, even just for food, is a decade-long endeavor where you almost certainly will have to work some kind of job or have some income in the meantime.

Where the fuck have you been for the last 10 years? Why do you believe that laws, norms, and rules, mean anything to this gang of fucking thieves?

[–] Bo7a 1 points 4 days ago

You don't believe this shit. Cut it out.

Agreed. My many American friends and work colleagues are not meant to be represented by this eagle.

The mean spirit of the president and his cabinet would be a better representation.

But also... This is a shitpost.

Yes, I too am shocked by how easy it is for the state media and upper echelons of a long-standing democracy to start calling the leaders of other countries governors of their states and threatening annexation.

This however, was just a funny little shit post...

That might have to do with your batshit Insanity. Just saying.

Yup it certainly is. It was removed to prevent water buildup on the roof that would cause leaks.

In the spring I'll address the root cause.

None of those albums would show up on my list of best albums.

They would all show up near the top of the list of shittiest albums though.

All I'm trying to say here is you can't say any album is objectively good or bad because music taste is subjective.

 

Pic related.

Everything is always beyond repair to this fuckstick. I think he may just be horrible at everything.

almost all voters are fucking morons.

More accurate.

 

Fun stuff.

So obviously I spent half an hour in a generative ai tool.

This doozy was shot just two days ago. I never thought I'd have a use for it on lemmy!

 

Location: Canada

Background: When I first started wearing glasses the optometrist would just give me a piece of paper that I could take to any shop to get my lenses made. Then they started refusing that paper and insisting I either leave my frames with them for two weeks, or that I buy new frames.

And now it seems like even asking for the script, or the measurements, is 'against policy'.


I recently went in for an eye exam and some new glasses, and the optician said something I have never been told before.

I had asked if they could give me the prescription for my sunglass lenses since they don't deal with the brand that I prefer, and he said that I would have to schedule another appointment at a shop that deals with that brand, because the prescription was not enough, and I would also need the measurements he took.

I asked if I could have those measurements and he said it was against policy.

Is he lying to try to get me to buy new frames from his shop? Or is there something to what he is saying?

Confession - When he walked away I took a picture of the measuring app he had used which seems to show all the measurements.

Would this be useful to another shop? I'm just trying to buy lenses without spending a fortune on yet another frame.

It all feels like a scam.

There are four from the most recent batch. But they are never all in one spot. And the parents don't come around much during the summer.
