Mfs in the comments pretending that spiralling cost of living wasn't a thing until trump got in

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 3 days ago

My lib coworker, during primaries, said "actually the economy is good right now" after KKKamala said that shit on stage. Got in a little back and forth with him over how when normal people say economy they mean cost of living for themselves not the financier bullshit.

Now that trump's in office he gets upset when the news talks about how good the economy is because groceries are at an all time high.

They don't care about material conditions in the slightest. They just want to win.

every year from now on will be 2008 lets-fucking-go

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 20 points 4 days ago (1 children)

2008 never ended economically, 2016 never ended culturally.

Any rich chud that has made a singe complaint in the last 18 years is a total baby. Go enjoy your perfect life of endless absolute pleasure and shut the fuck up.

Rich people complaining is so funny lol. Talking some shit about "I couldn't take my boat out this week" or how their kids don't talk to them.

what if it never went away for some of us?

I'm poor now, but I was poor back then too.

[–] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Luckily ground beef is 50% more expensive than it was two years ago so you'll likely stay poor in the future as well!

[–] chungusamonugs@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

I was gonna say this, like, its still $9-$12 or so for something thats only 3-5 servings depending on how much people eat.

And it also doesnt taste very good and its also bad for you.

I'm too poor for the helper so I have to use spaghetti sauce, white rice, and seasoning in my slop meal.

Check out this video it has some great tips for cooking good rice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kSiLTnKw0I

If you guys want some knock-off, low-effort levantine rice I can drop the Great Value™ version of my mom's rice I've been using.

Drop however much rice you want in the rice cooker (wash yo rice first, don't be nasty!)

Add the water to the point that if you're touching rice it reaches the first joint of your finger

Throw a Bullion cube in there (some brands don't even have chicken in them if you want it to be veg-friendly) I shred a cube up a little with my hands to make sure it's evenly dispersed

Sprinkle a few hefty taps of cumin, do a little bit less of black pepper

Mix the rice up once it's finished to spread that buillon around and you're good to go.

You can fry up some vermicelli beforehand and cook the rice with it if you wanna be bougie, as well as frying some pine nuts to sprinkle on top after it's done, but those are added bonuses.

Eating it with plain yogurt is good enough for a dinner on days that I don't want to cook lol. Drink a protein shake after the fact if you want your ~~lead~~ protein up.

Hey so just want to chime in for a sec about the washing rice thing. Yes washing rice can help with taste/texture, and remove stuff from the rice you might not want. But specifically if you are buying ENRICHED white rice you should not be washing it everytime. They actually apply a fortifying mix of vitamins to the rice and washing it removes most of that. This is mostly important if your diet is heavily rice based because it can prevent deficiencies of those vitamins if you keep them in. So just keep in mind what type of rice you are dealing with, and don't assume all of them should be washed.

So yes it can make the rice have a better texture to wash even the enriched kind, but if you just keep the enriched rice as is it'll have some nice health benefits. So it's a trade off situation with that specific type of rice.

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

that "unffhghhh" when she says the brand name.. like "OH MY GOD I LOVE ME SOME OF THAT SLOP OH JFC", as if any of these anchor twats have had hamburger helper since childhood, if ever.

[–] TheEgoBot@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Actually I'd wager that's all they can make if they're not buying all three meals a day on some rare occasion, I bet they all cook like the rage baiting white women on tiktok but like genuinely

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

[–] rubber_chicken@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

Reasonable working conditions so you don't come home too exhausted to put different spices in your dinner?
