Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I hear yah, personally I cancelled a bunch of streaming apps, making all my food and coffee at home and been hitting thrift stores and estate sales for things I need. I know shits expensive, my car is a 2006 and it eats gas but I'm not falling for the new car trap.
People have done all of what you have mentioned here but still living paycheck to paycheck. They did it because they already know they can't afford stuff. Now they're starting to stop eating healthy too. You going to claim vegetables are luxury? Fuck you if you do.
Grow micro greens and tomatoes indoors. Lights are cheap af.
