Meme-ing our way through

It doesn’t, though… It grows lots of things trying very hard NOT to be food. And largely failing.

People harnessed all those things and made them MORE food. And I don’t mean European agriculture, I mean Amazonian and Native American mad permacultural skills pre-1492.

…and then we got way too good at existing and reproducing…

I mean, I’m well aware. First degree was in evolutionary zoology, I have been through many an ecology class. I would argue that’s what food IS- even now. The stuff on our grocery shelves doesn’t really want to be eaten either. (Although to quote/paraphrase Michael Pollan, “what is good for Cows is bad for the cow”).

It was a viscerally pedantic response to the meme itself, rather than you for sharing it, if that makes any sense. :two_hearts:

I mean if we’re being pedantic we just need to be sure to include ourselves in the food category :joy:

I feel like I’ve seen this episode and Tiger Mum got annoyed and asked them to clean it up… But damage is already done, toddlers already seen the sand inside then house.

This episode actually inspired my daughter to make an inside beach- but the 2nd kind they made, with blankets.

Daniel’s Mom also has the best anger management on the planet.

I never went to BIG festivals, but I used to like going to concerts.

I just cannot fathom it now. Looking at that photo makes me want to vomit it is so anxiety inducing.

Today I was pricing out candy molds and I came across the most hilarious stock photo/photoshop fail combo. Enjoy!
