Somebody needs to check up on Cramer, I think these last few years have caused a psychotic break from reality in his mind.

If the price of liberty is eternal vigilance, then the price of mechanized agriculture is as well.

given the current state of things that's quite ironic.

I'm far from a militant anti-gmo, I can accept there are advantages (and disadvantages, nothing's perfect) when used properly and responsibly - but then the same could be said about almost everything, communism included. it's a slippery slope, less "I don't trust GMO", I don't trust the people in charge of it.
not that it matters much, we probably all gonna die from some form of cancer anyway...

Mealworms is actually literally something apartment dwellers could do. Lots of animals love mealworms and after your startup costs, all they eat is fruit and veg trash and people will pay you for them to feed to their pets/livestock. Just need a three drawer setup, some substrate, worms, and let the games begin.

Huh.
As an autist who is very interested in starting vermicomposting much to the extreme chagrin of my loved ones, I never heard you can do it with mealworms.

Please, sir, can you spare just a bit more information?
Are they better than the regular advice of earthworms?

They really are not rocket science. You get a three bin storage container. You fill all of them with substrate, which could be oats or wheat bran. You go to your local pet store or online and order your starter colony of mealworms. Throw them in the lower drawer with some fruit or vegetable scraps and give them an egg carton or something to hide under. In 2-3 weeks, they will start to pupate and then you throw them in the middle drawer as soon as you see the cases (otherwise the larvae might eat them). Then once they become adults you immediately put in the upper drawer and feed them the same you do the larvae. They will breed and then die. The new larvae hatch and you move them ASAP to the lowest box with the other larvae. Then the cycle repeats.

The situation is totally FUBAR. This has got to be at least the 4th or 5th time inflation was supposed to peak and instead accelerated. I cannot see how GDP won't be negative for Q2 with inflation continuing to accelerate while the jobs market begins to sputter. The recession has already started.

To quote the greatest math mind I've ever heard, "The Number's don't lie, and they spell disaster."

How I know the inflation crisis is getting bad? Slight PL, where I live has a minimum wage floating at around $12 CAD. There's legitimate talk of hiking it up to $15 CAD - quick conversion to real money, that's ~$9.30 USD and $11.75 USD. A lot of the people I work with don't see this as a bad thing - guess the don't see how this'll increase the prices of everything even more than Castreau having the money printer go brrrrr for 2 years did...

 

[MadStan]

Well, this inflation has been about 3 years in the making and this coupled with the likelihood of stagnation is upon us.

This was seen as a very real consequence some years back and we've been planning for it. That isn't to say just because you know something is coming it means you are totally prepared for it, but it does mean we've been running the business with this very much in mind so we will weather it OK. Not great. But better than most and OK.

Money is going to become scarcer as it costs more to buy, there is less in the wallet and savings and yields don't counter the rising costs.

Other generations weathered such things and learned to not waste and that luxuries needed to wait. Now we get the lesson - the entire planet at the same time, too.

Wow it's almost as if the people you work with have nothing left to lose and don't care

Tbf a lot of them were the ones throwing bitchfits that the Fed wanted it's money back on their taxes from the initial Covid Bux. It's probably a 50/50 split, but I haven't had hope for humanity since high school.

It is generally safe when the gene transfer is between species in genus. But between different families? Wew.
Cases in point:
-Literally any modern day "breeding" for vegetables.
-American Chestnut. Someone added an oxalic acid wheat gene since it kills the fungus. Trialed properly with no major shortcomings noticed. Tried to release it for planting, immediately reeeing from all the "environmentalists"
-Corn. Some madman put a spinach gene in corn to boost heat resistance. Released with no testing but met with crickets because big ag could hardly wait to get even more ethanol subsidy.
Now. Creating new DNA from scratch? That shit is scary as all hell I would throw it in a volcano. Thanks, Monsanto and glyphosate.

There's rumor that Biden/Congress may force the WPS licensing for spraying anything. Yep. You heard that right, you're gonna need a license to spray pesticides, be it neem oil, cyanide, or high pressure water (yes, that counts as a "pesticide").

I really hope Biden dies of ass cancer.

Anyway here's some hopium- aka the child molestor agenda saying "don't tell all the kids how doomed they are".

Shamelessly quote-reposting my own post from another thread:

Retarded ETA: I posted about this in another thread on A&H but it’s worth discussing here as well:

Food prices are getting higher not just because of diesel prices but because of fertilizer (namely potash) prices. Potash is a key ingredient in fertilizer production that is mined from countries like Canada, the US (to a lesser degree; we don’t have a lot), Belarus, and Russia. Potash can be made small scale by literally just boiling some wood ash or something but the amounts required for large scale commercial farms usually means it’s more sensible to mine it out of the earth and process it in metric tons. Potash also is a key ingredient in things like Gatorade and some types of glass.

After the whole thing in Ukraine, whatever happened there, potash market prices skyrocketed in a yuge way. Another post ITT mentioned that Russian fertilizer/potash might be exempt from the sanctions (big if true) but considering Russia is in one of the top five potash mining/exporting countries, it still tracks that the market price would go up. I’m economically illiterate but maybe it’s to compensate for lost revenue from other exports being sanctioned or something I don’t fucking know. The diesel used to run the equipment (mining trucks are giant) and transport the finished product is obviously another factor that’s contributing to the price. Anyway here’s a graph and some images, line go up:

The price has literally fucking doubled since the final quarter of 2021.

I'm hoping that unlike last year, my tomato plants won't get ass blasted by bad weather and blight so I can actually try to can.

Currently working on a big Walmart order to stock up on what I can. Some of the things I like can't really be preserved for a long time, so whatever little money I save can be used on that.

All of the apartments that aren't slums in my area have waiting lists up to two years long. At least no one can say I'm not trying.

Grow it in a hydroponic setup with ties to a curtain rail at 5.5 pH. Then drag said indeterminate tomatoes along so you don't need to worry about cutting down the vines.

Yeah but it makes some people money. What are you, some kinda commie?

My guess would be Today-Wednesday. The question is: How bad is it going to be? I roll for a crash that lies between 2008 and the 1930's in the worst-case scenario.

My guess would be Today-Wednesday. The question is: How bad is it going to be? I roll for a crash that lies between 2008 and the 1930's in the worst-case scenario.

The elites want it to be the mother of all crashes so they can implement fed coin and the great reset. But we'll have to wait and see.
