WTH?!! $23 for a bag of candy. Good thing we dont eat that shit. https://nostpic.com/media/8d9d2b77930ee54ec3e46faf774ddd041dbb4e4aa35ad47c025884a286dd65fa/8ba61366772738afd4019a56584611ede26c965abe9cc59c63cf7500902dada6.webp
I could make waaay more candy with a $25 jar of honey and some cocao powder.
Home made ones are the only way to go! I made a set a few years ago for fun. They're great as a flow toy.

I remind them that AI doesn't exist, and that we have more to be concerned about with Artificial Stupidity.
Probably me! 😜
My point is that they avoid the topic.
I understand the fear of pain, or the unknown.
I recently saw a documentary about "city folk" starting a homestead. Their perspective on death is VERY unhealthy. They never seem to understand how to accept it, or even deal with it. It's seems to be a constant struggle for them to handle something that is always a part of reality.
I was lucky, and got an Alby wallet before they started requiring invite codes. If you can get one, that would be an easy way to go since it has NWC (Nostr Wallet Conmect).
A lot of people like Wallet of Satoshi, which I believe requires installing their app. When you first zap, Android will ask you which app to open, then it will automatically open when zapping after that.
After you get a wallet, if you can't figure out what to do next, reply here, and I'll see what I can do.
Type them up and share on Noste (in pieces, or in full). Or at least share them with me. 😜
Yes, it seems to be a more "recent" trend. i'm wondering if it started with the Industrial Age, TV? 🤔
I find it odd that most of western culture tries to ignore/avoid the topic of death. Many other cultures have seen it as natural, and embraced the fact.
What client are you using?
The brand to get currently is President.
Make sure to get a quality antenna, no matter what radio you get.
They can also negotiate for cheaper power bills, taxes, and often are able to purchase the real estate they're using.
I can't speak for Philly's distributor, but nearly everything on the shelves is not purchased by the store. The distributor buys back the nearly-outdated, and expired product that they remove when they deliver fresh product.
The sale price is a negotiation between the store and the seller. With large distributors, they can push a smaller store around. "If you don't sell a train-car load of Tide by the end of the month, you won't be able to sell any more Proctor & Gamble products", (assuming Tide is a P&G product). This causes a major sale of Tide for that chain or store.
Meanwhile, they need to recoup revenue, for selling Tide as a loss-leader, (and to keep the supply chain going), so they raise the price of sugar, or coffee, or whatever you're addicted to.
Grocery store profits are a very thin portion of a large amount of money. It's a business I avoid consulting.
