otp, to asklemmy in What are some food items that cost less than what they "should"?

I would argue that that’s because you should be paid more money. That’s why I’m not suggesting we should be paying more. Just kind of wondering what foods are “artificially” priced low due to exploitation of labour (etc).

We can’t grow rice in Canada, so that definitely applies to us! Still cheap here, though.

I’m not sure if world domination usually comes with an election, but I’d vote for you!

It’s not much different in Canada. I strongly dislike all the HFCS-sweetened stuff.

Without a doubt. And when it’s things that can only grow in those parts of the world, it can be harder to find alternatives.

Not that I can afford them, lol

And even then, with chocolate, costs are rising. You can tell by how prevalent things like “chocolatey chips” are.

We’ve gotten too used to having cheap coffee and chocolate, and I’m disappointed with the substitutes…too bad I can’t afford the ethical stuff quite yet, lol

And I’m thankful for it!

It kind of makes sense though. Pasta is cheap too. Most ramen packs are less noodles than you’d get in a bag of pasta, but with a bit of packaged salt/seasoning mix. It can also be manufactured anywhere with stuff that grows locally (at least where I am).

Bananas are still cheap, though!

otp, to asklemmy in What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world?

I don’t know! Wherever the there ass is that the other guy was talking about, I guess

otp, to asklemmy in Non-computer standing furniture

Oh, don’t you have one? Or maybe we’d have to take turns until I can get mine

otp, to asklemmy in People that went to high schools with 3 or more floors, did you think that was a bit odd?

Sorry, it’s not that I didn’t understand what you said, it’s that I can hardly fathom it.

Most high schools I was aware of were two floors. In a single building, and I almost forgot to specify that because I’d never heard of a multi-building high school before.

otp, to asklemmy in The 2024 US Presidential race officially starts Monday, what are your predictions for Iowa?

Canada doesn’t look like clothing though!

America is Canada’s shorts. Florida’s the dong.

otp, to asklemmy in Do you feel a UBI is more left- or right-wing (or other) and why?

"Only one fund to lock to a fixed number rather than tie to inflation, and then bring down? Sign us up!"

otp, to piracy in Re: Why don't people fight for their pirating rights?

if i would own my children, then i could kill them, just like i can kill my dog.

[…]

im officially labelled as “unfit for educating children” because of my radical views

Yeah, this sounds fine to me. Kudos to your government, I guess.

otp, to asklemmy in People that went to high schools with 3 or more floors, did you think that was a bit odd?

our school had 4 floors

Was it just really narrow or something in the middle of a cramped city?

in both buildings
