A new law will ban retailers from using shoppers' personal data to hike grocery prices. But consumer advocates argue that it contains far too many loopholes that companies could exploit.
Growing your own food, even in a small garden, really shows how bad climate change is. There’s more bugs sooner, the plants get way too hot and/or get a late freeze, or your water restrictions mean they wither before you can harvest.
Doing my own backyard garden had been a real challenge, and there’s no way to live off of it. It’s simply supplemental. I would starve to death in the winter. But I’m still trying!
last year, half our tomatoes never turned red because it was both too hot and never got hot enough for the tomatoes. we had a lot of fried green tomatoes.
Seriously though, look into canning and indoor growing and it’ll help over the winter. If you have enough time and resources to put into it, you might actually be able to drastically reduce how much you buy. More easily said than done though.

Just eat the bugs!

…trying to starve to death? Interesting priorities I guess.
Do you seriously believe they are trying to starve to death and not trying to grow their own food in their garden?
It was a wordplay joke based on the quote that they attached.
Are… you serious?
No. I’m making a joke…damn, absurdity really is dead in 2026.
Absurdity is reality now, so satirical stuff just doesn’t hit the same anymore.
That’s absurd!
Well if someone described your garden as “simply supplemental,” wouldn’t you?
