This sounds alot like 2012

31. In one case, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee joke-tweets about mailing in ballots for his “deceased parents and grandparents.”

32. This inspires a long Slack that reads like an

parody. “I agree it’s a joke,” concedes a Twitter employee, “but he’s also literally admitting in a tweet a crime.”

BREAKING: U.S. sports journalist Grant Wahl collapsed and died while covering the Netherlands-Argentina game in Qatar

my sisters husband wants to join fedi but he's unsure what instance. He's:
-mildly racist
-says nigger IRL occasionally
-uses Arch Linux
-is vaguely familiar with 4chan
-plays the piano

do you guys have a recommendation on what instance he should join?

Who are they going to use it on?

@spiritsplice@pieville.net

That is interesting. I wonder who would survive. The poorest people are already used to that lifestyle.

@spiritsplice@pieville.net why the stone age? Why not revert back to the 19th century era and build from there?

@EvilSandmich

That sounds like a good idea. It'd be nice to have your own fresh eggs to eat.
$7 a dozen is about the price for farm fresh eggs around here. Sometimes higher
Although not as good a product, at local grocery store 30 eggs for $9

@societyoutcasts @confederatehobo @ImperialAgent @Ottovonshitpost @teknomunk @nugger @jeffcliff Yeah I've seen that too....well I've seen both. I don't care about being cheaper than the grocery store because I just want to get the stupid eggs out of our house*. A lot of people though just scale it against the market regardless of what their input costs are. The other anecdote I have is that the higher prices charged by the local butcher (for better product, natch) stayed largely the same while the prices for the inferior stuff from the grocery store rose to be about the same price (apart from the GloboPedo beef steaks from Mexico that taste like sadness).

*(Our plan all along was to have our own farm fresh eggs and to just charge people who buy eggs the feed costs because the other (large) expenses (coops, chickens, other infrastructure, etc.) is stuff we'd buy for ourselves anyway. I'd imagine most other small-scale farmers actually want to make money on them, which really isn't feasible. If I was able to charge $5/dozen then *maybe*. Somewhat related, the Vital Farms eggs sold at Whole Foods are the closest you can get to "farm fresh" from the grocery store (all the other ones are pretenders, work paid for me to sample them) and it looks like they're about $7/dozen around me).
