  • You don’t need to eat rice and ramen (tho I do love me some…). Turkeys around Tgiving in the us are stupid cheap, pork butts smoke easily (you can even cheat and do them in a standard oven), and cheap beef makes great stew for less than $1/meal. Fish can be affordable too, if that’s your thing.

    How come all your cheap alternatives to rice and ramen are corpse? Are those the only options for frugal people, to have rice and ramen or to be a murderer?





  • But why would someone pay for the software if the seller is not adding any value to to product?

    A: the mistaken belief that the seller is adding value, even in the face of all evidence, which is caused by a capitalist tendency to believe that all prices are inherently just

    B: disbelief in the idea of anything worthwhile being free, which is caused by the capitalist tendency to attack the free exchange of goods and services.






  • A lot of bending ability comes down to personality. Being adaptable, forceful, consuming, or evasive makes you good at bending. Being rigid, timid, pacifist, or stubborn makes you bad at bending. Katara sucked at waterbending when the show started because she was a stickler for the rules. She always had a nurturing element, but she also had to learn to go with the flow. Toph was a child prodigy at earthbending because she has an incredibly forceful personality. But it’s not something her parents taught her, she had to cultivate it within herself.

    It is the duty of the Avatar to embody the wisdom of each element and to undergo the personal growth to be able to see things from everyone’s perspective. Korra’s situation is basically normal. Aang is the weirdo for being a timid pacifist who struggled with earth and fire.
