Penguin classics is awful. This is what my copy of City of God looks like after ONE read through. Do not purchase their works unless absolutely necessary.
I started early and worked all day on a house remodel with no radio. Noticed it was odd that all I saw flying were a couple military transports. Drove to a rec league sport practice in my truck with no radio. No one was there. went to our after practice spot, a sports bar. Walked in at 5:12 pm to all the tv's showing the impacts and collapses.
@sprainhill Going over to help my elderly widow's three sons (who didn't need any help at all) pull her well pump soon after we moved in has paid substantial dividends.
"If you cannot afford to eat out anymore, there's always 700 calorie burritos you can cook at home, and you are being unreasonable if you don't like it."
The weirdest thing about the "you can cook food at home cheaply" discourse is that people ***don't want it to be true.***
They're not merely incredulous. They are livid. And if you break down the meal and show them the prices, they get even angrier.
@alwaysaimbig@JoshuaSheats Poverty hacks ain’t culinary expertise. I know all about “stretching” the protein with cheap stuff. I grew up four in the 70s, I ate every variety of goulash slop imaginable. I was 15 years old before I realized chili didn’t have beans AND macaroni in it.
@JoshuaSheats For clarity, Berry admitted down thread that he was stretching the beef with beans. Frugality is good, but his $20 poverty burrito buffet doesn't support his claim to culinary expertise.
