I agree, however, once-a-week meal prep of a big fucking crockpot of whatever you like which you then freeze in portions solves that issue. Especially if you rotate what you make and don't just eat the same thing out the freezer the rest of the week, you'll have a backlog of several different healthy meals if you truly are that pressed for time. Steam up some vegetables/microwave them, and boil some rice or potato and you have a proper meal in 10-15 minutes.

When I was working long hours and had to do meal prep for a week or more all in one go, really all I could do was a ton of rice, chicken, and some veggies. To keep it from getting bland, after it was all cooked and distributed into the containers I would spice each container individually so at least I was getting some different flavors. I was eating the same thing every meal, but the five or six different sauce/spices I had in each one made it a little less monotonous. Never doubt the power of spices.
 
Tangentially, can anyone explain to me precisely how the US itself being at war is a net gain for the US economy? Not saying it isn't, I just don't understand the mechanics.
How to profit from war like an American:
  1. Declare a "peacekeeping operation" because going through Congress for a war declaration is too hard (plus, we don't want the plebs to catch on)
  2. Send the best and brightest young men to die in some desert
  3. "Discover" there's no more young men to work in critical industries
  4. Refuse to end the war because shut up
  5. Declare we must import the third world or America will not survive
  6. Import the third world for the cheapest labor possible
  7. Business cost goes down due to lowered wages
  8. Product consumption goes up because third worlders have low impulse control and are subsidized by welfare/NGOs
  9. GDP subsequently goes up
  10. Arms industry (which I coincidentally invested in just before the "peacekeeping operation" was declared) is making a killing in more ways than one
  11. "See? Line go up! America is fine! Diversity is our strength! Import more brown people! Kill the Russians! You're racist if you think any of this is bad!"
  12. Repeat as necessary.
 
Scott Thompson is still alive.
SCTV is pretty cool. And Rush.
clearly why we need tariffs!
the USA has been leaning on the world stage, especially Canada to handle things we could do in the states!
OUR Rush has been laying dormant for years, he hasn't done shit in a while after getting that medal!
and OUR American Second City is completely neglected!

I was treated to tofu twice in my life, accidentally due to menu confusion. I would not wish tofu on my worst enemies. That shit is a culinary abomination and one of the only foods I've ever had to outright just throw away because I could genuinely not stomach what was supposed to be a meat dish. That wasn't meat. It was a mistake. Fucking foul.


RFK JR. PLEASE PLEASE BAN TOFU. IT IS A THREAT TO NATIONAL SAFETY.
tofu works as a noodle type thing like in miso soup and not much else

there was a stretch where I had a weird all-you-can-eat work-at-home thing, so it really was way more economical for me to get cheap-ish take-out rather than stop working for cooking and cleaning,
but yeah otherwise I prefer to cook for myself over fast food a majority of the time, unless it's something I just don't like the hassle of, like fish is sort of a pain to get and use while it's fresh, then the place stinks like fish, or bakery. I find cleaning up from dough making and all enough of a pain I just don't bother

Imagine if they actually managed to succeed in tearing down tesla a company that's value is inflated like apples by faggy liberal. To their shock and horror like when they "canceled" the last 5 million people Elon Musk doubles down on alt-right ideology it now being his only possible source of income.

Also for some reason outer space exploration is an alt-right ideal so SpaceX will be fine.

lmao I dont understand why people are disagreeing with you, 3 hours would be closer, 1 hour per meal, but genuinely if you want to cook a wholesome hot meal its at least 1 hour of prep and cook and clean per meal EASILY, maybe you cut it down by preping earlier in the week or ignoring cleaning but that time still counts.
Because if it takes you an hour to prep and cook a meal you probably have an IQ below 75 or some sort of horrible downs preventing you from living and acting like a normal person. I made a shakshukah last night and it took me 30min. There's plenty of meals you can make that are healthy, filling, nutritious and take 30min or less. If it's taking you 3 hours to prepare a single meal you're either cooking for 20 people or choose a very extravagant coursed meal meant for an afternoon or the aristocracy.

Most people who get home after a long day of work on a hasty breakfast and minimal lunch dont have the energy to put together a complex meal and just opt for the easy route

How hard is it to grill up some chicken and throw it on a salad? It takes like 10min total from start to eating

I don't think it's time, it's energy.
I've seen it regularly, men and women at the end of the work day either physically or mentally drained, they grab a 4 pack of beer or a bottle of wine and snacks, go home, sit down and don't get up again till it's time to go to bed.

I think the cure is education. If you don't have the energy left to enjoy your spare time, that's time you've given your boss for free.

Edit, highlight wanker

Tofu is actually pretty neat since it absorbs the flavor of marinades and seasonings well. It does have an odd texture, though, so that's why some people hate it.

Also, good morning USPG2! News outlets are reporting that Democrats are backing down on a government shutdown and Trump will get his budget.

This is why going to the gym is the essential first step to unfucking your life. It makes part of your routine each day that is for yourself not your work, results in higher levels of energy, and a real desire to consume protein instead of goyslop.

I'll be fair, from unpacking the groceries to plating the food was an hour and change the other night, the brats had to thaw and I was juggling doing dishes and laundry at the same time

yeah there's def times I give no fucks whatsoever
back when I was on EBT it became my habit (since I couldn't go to the drive through) to go for the frozen burger patties, still do
they're hardly great cuisine, but throwing a frozen burger patty in the air fryer is less effort than navigating drive-through and just about as miserable a burger lol

yeah iirc with it passing the house that's basically it for expected spots to fall over?
 
We are supposed to believe that American carriers have magic tech that can beat a dozen smaller ships with hyper sonics. And that next gen fighters will sink them all.
Carriers are useless, which is why China is spending billions to develop carriers with parity to the US?
China would only really want carriers when its time to fuck with Japan and India. Their focus at the moment seems to be beating an American carrier fleet in and near Chinese waters.
They need Carriers to attack countries well within their land based air force range? Including a country they share a disputed land border with?
 
Any meat can be ground into chuck and pressed into patties then frozen. If you can cook a Bubba burger you can cook gourmet organic grass fed goth jerked beef burgers 🍔
if I want something that's good I'll give a shit and get fresh ground beef, this is more about sloth and gluttony

It's demoralization and depression. A person does not care what they consume if their general life satisfaction and motivation to live are low. This is probably why unhealthy eating is often correlated with a lack of hygiene, adverse health outcomes or an unclean living environment.
