But think about the shareholders. They can't just cancel Disney+ because of some silly pay raises.

I was 23. Just a young fella over there. Probably haven't even broken a hip yet.

If North America could solve it's food waste problem we would not need so much industrial monocropping that actually feeds no one.

Small farmer here. Devoid the soil of nutrients by tilling. Kill all the soil biology by spraying chemicals. Grow only fast yield cash crops. Grow the same crop year after year for decades or more. Breed crops for appearance and yield over nutrition. What the fuck do you expect?

If you are soil biology this is very true in your typical soy field.

I went to uni right out of highschool. Became a paramedic. Has a good career but it just wasn't what I wanted. By 25 I quit and was travelling doing odd jobs or whatever I could. Meeting people, seeing places. It wasn't easy but I wouldn't change it for the world. I've been many places, done many things, met so many interesting people and completely changed my world view from when I was 20 because of it all.

I say don't let society tell you what is right or normal. Find your own path. Do things you find interesting and don't make your life about your work. Now I am old and have medical issues. I'll be 50 this year. I'm glad I lived while I had the opportunity. It's your life make it what you want it to be not someone else's idea of life.

Us too. Inappropriate memes that make us laugh. Avoids the "can I see" from the kids.

This has been an issue for a long time. We stopped shopping le village almost ten years ago for this very reason.

The one I was thinking of was Midgard Insect Farms Inc but I think they only grow for pet food. There are many others in Canada however. Even Loblaws started selling cricket flour in their stores around 2017.

You can buy cricket flour in Canada. There is a manufacturer in Nova Scotia.
