  • Living is all about water management. Its amazing how much easier gardening gets controlling the flow of water through it, and some collection of the excess.

    Food preservation had been my next kick personally. Always a good time to get into it. Its all about controlling things living things like. Air, water, light, temp, etc. And things they dont like acid, alchohol.

    Heat kills, cold pauses.

    Gadgets help make it easier or consistent but arent totally needed. A mason jar can grow sprouts, be canned, thrown in the fridge, thrown in the freezer (if you have the head room for ice growth!), to brew alchohol, vinigar, kimchi, saurkraut, etc.

    There are some grow a row orgs (charities and mutal aid) that take food grown in gardens for the community too. Keeping our communities is the only real way to survive imho




  • Rice cooker with a scheduable cooker. I can get it ready the night before or right before i need. Then i take some of it and throw it in the fridge to have it ready for fried rice through out the week. The rest I chow with sauerkraut throught the day.

    I try to do laundry every day, easier to match and put stuff away. I hang every thing besides socks witch can be stuff in a drawer or bag.

    Ive been trying to move to more fermented, shelf stable or frozen foods too. Just to reduce the complixity of tracking when stuff is going bad as much.

    I’ve been slowly moving the yard to a food forest managment style. This has been a lot of help personally too. So it gets wild its ok, i pick what i want when it makes sense or process stuff like apples when if I have free time and theyre ready, but its no loss to just put them in a pile to fertilize.









  • “Crap made by slaves” for most goods sold here in the US. It’s not always true, but total disregard almost every company with cases of proven forced labor of innocent people including women and children it’s easier for me to write it all off as fucked up to buy. It’s also all made to breakdown into known toxic waste soon enough to force you to buy more soon.

    “Sugar water” for sweet tea soda and filtered juices.

    “Advertised burger” for anything that I know sucks but for no good reason I really crave some gut wrenching to fastfood.

    “Internet of Stings” is a good stallmanism.

    “Unmanned ground drone” for a waymo or anything it. The cameras just creep me out.

    “Children electrocutioners” for ChicFila

    “Relic looters” for hobby lobby

    “The company that stole 300 bucks from me” for local crooked car dealer ship that stole 300 bucks from me.

    I hate ads because they make these horrible places seem normal, so I try my best at anti advertising.


  • Children’s toys like games are limited in their function and scope. I don’t think that makes playing with them sad ever but it can be more rewarding to make things with less constraints some times.

    I feel like Ive been playing less games now that games turned to hobbies turn to a career in which I can try to solve complex problems in more creative ways.

    I still play with blocks, little puzzles, games, etc though, so again a hard cut off doesn’t really make sense to me.
