Seen it done over decades. Works, though there were tilapia and rabbits. This was not just ‘put stuff in ground and snack’. Dude had some org chem under his belt. Also it was a family of three.
learn to basic skills
I do in fact cook at home. The exploitation at the supermarket is gross; I’m not going out before noon for a farmers market. And every ingredient tastes a little like the suffering of which it is made. Especially the leafy greens.
Thats a shitty imperialist view of the natural world. Yeah, it’s red in tooth and claw, but also cuddly and collaborative and incomprehensible. We are not morally superior by virtue of wearing pants.
subsistence
I know he once had me set up a dozen beefy computers with solidworks in an office. I don’t think he was a subsistence farmer. I think he was like a subcontractor for lockheed or raytheon or something. Definitely had ‘my job requires both security clearance and an advanced degree’ vibes. It’s a thing. They talk about the topic generally, like going on (hypothetical example) an impromptu hour long explanation of different backflow valves, but never talks about the one’s they’ve worked on.
you can suck less
Yeah maybe, but the difference in exploitation here is negligable. Splitting hairs, getting out my microscope to figure out which is more exploitative does not seem worth my time or attention. Besides; I’m not trying to be a good person here.
