Why do they live like this? I understand you know, some people are just hard up, but eventually you try to sort it out right? Are they both disabled or something?
Yeah the scurvy thing is weird. It's like how antivax people don't think about measles and polio anymore and so don't see the importance of vaccination.
Oh the indignity! I can hear it now. "Eating only things with a nutrition label on the box is a yuman right!"
I eat weeds. Wild weeds from the yard. For fun. They're tasty. You should try it. Most of them are harmless and nutritious, shit, dandelions were an imported food crop from Europe. Double check what you're eating first but they can be really good.
I didn't blame them for not eating grass I said that you should know a thing or two about nutrition if you intend to, you know, survive. I don't know about you, but if I was so poor I was living off of scones alone for 3 months, I'd be looking up wild food and learning about vitamin deficiency, and I'd be entirely willing to eat grass to prevent fucking scurvy.
Dude I feed 3 people a month on $200 with no assistance. And we eat healthy. We splurge a little too.
It's too expensive, sure. It should be half that. And some people live near a dollar store, I get that, they're eating cat food and Vienna sausages. But this meme isn't about those people. There are waaaay too many people complaining about the cost of groceries that won't eat anything that doesn't come out of a plastic package.

The problem with this is that the left is not the shining house on the hill anymore. You guys lost the fucking plot.
We aren't talking about civil rights vs lynching anymore. You want me to pick between communism and fascism, and here's the thing: I'm not a centrist. I'm an ideological extremist, I believe in individual liberty to an extreme. It's not down the middle, its as far the fuck away from the both of you that I can get. Draw a picture of that guy turning around and walking away from the fork in the road, that's me. You're both the same.
You severely underestimate the heat storage capacity of the ground. Geothermal heat pumps work off that principle: at 6-8 feet underground the temperature is constant (in spite of the sun shining on it all the time, that should give you an idea how minimally one human body would impact it) and moving heat into it dissipates it in the ground and has a minimal impact. You probably wouldn't even get a noticeable change in temperature in 48 hours. You can cool a whole house for a whole summer and probably only locally notice a 1° increase in local temperature around where it's pumped to by the end of the summer, heat that then can be used in the winter.
Hmm curious.
Yeah and 6 feet underground the temperature is gonna be in the low 70s.
Goodness. Yeah I hate to be callous, but that sounds less like just having it hard and more like a lifetime of terrible decision making. Whatever the case is I hope they make it happen with their land plans and are able to make their lives easier.
