I’ve never tried this but how about one of those small DIY greenhouses? Apparently they’re pretty easy to make. I’m not sure how cold it gets at your latitude but with a greenhouse you could manage to lower your zone a level. Maybe enough for those carrots.

Worst case I guess is just grow winter crops during the summer. Half a year of cheaper food is better than nothing.

Have you tried carrots? They can grow in negative 8 degrees Celsius (around 19 degrees freedom units)

I think broccoli and Brussels sprouts also do well.

When it comes to cucumbers, however, growing a ton, and pickling them is perfect for using all year round, and pickling is also way easier than I first thought.

I like growing vegetables and flowers. It is the only think keeping me sane living in the city.

I know some do not, but the tariffs are happening, so best you can do is adapt, though honestly I would suggest it even if the tariffs were cancelled. It saves money, is good for the environment and your mental health.

Are all cucumbers imported? Those can be farmed in the US, I believe.

I suggest starting a small garden for various vegetables and spices to save money. For those living in apartments, you can make some in your windows.

Mini leeks are probably the easiest. I actually got an overwhelming amount just from two pots and barely needed to do any kind of maintenance.

I think people who say “I don’t care, I use Linux” are really saying “You should use Linux to stop this.”

This. Why would anyone want their private conversations, out there? Don’t put your password in you will. Put a dead man switch on your PC.

If it is to close down a social media account they can contact the company directly.

If it is to take out money, they can contact the bank directly.

If it is to inform contacts, they can live without knowing.

If it is to cancel subscriptions, you’re going to have to send letters, wait in a phone call for hours, and cancel the credit card either way because of scummy cancellation practices.

And government does not equal country. However both the goverment and the people are part of the country. When Chinese people win, the country wins. I said China, I.e. the country, not the government. If I had been talking about the government I would have said the CCP, which I am not trying to lift up in my comment. Fuck the CCP.

I mean sure, if you don’t consider the people of china to be China, but we’re going down semantics here.

They just had a major step forward in trans rights in china. She could have received more, but the amount of money isn’t the part that makes it a win.

It is a major step forward for trans rights in China which is a win. They’ve been virtually non-existent.

Rare China W. I hope she recovers quickly.

My definition is the number 1 definition on the dictionary you linked.

And here’s how definitions work:

If you fall under only a single of the definitions, you are as defined. I.e. maybe you don’t have a systemic advantage over me, (neither do I over you, because I don’t live in the US and am a racial minority in the country I live in), you are still racist under the other just as valid definitions. They’re not outdated definitions, they’re official and still very much valid definitions that apply to you, a racist.

I am not helping the right one bit, you are radicalizing the right by spreading hate against people who had nothing to do with building the system, or had anything to do with slavery. Why would anyone listen to a raging lunatic calling them all sorts of slurs? They’ll think “the fuck is wrong this person?”

You are so blinded by hate, and so motivated to “get back at the oppressors” you would attack an entire race over it. Go outside.

You are so cherrypicking definitions, you think you’re cute.

a belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race also : behavior or attitudes that reflect and foster this belief : racial discrimination or prejudice

Hey, that sounds just like you.

Nice racism, bro. The literal dictionary definition of racism includes against white people. Whether the target is a marginalized group is not relevant whatsoever.

You just wants to be racist but also think you are morally right to be so, and posts like yours only serve the right-wing. Kindly remove your bigot self from Lemmy.

Or, get this, every white person in this meme is a different person, and the last one is completely unrelated to the above ones.

The last white person has original sin because other white people were racist pieces of shits.

How about we stop fighting racism with racism, and instead try to unite against the elites?
