Got these bones from our local butcher after I purchased a few things.

Cooking it for #Mellie and will use the broth for myself when making stew or soup.

Each of them would be at least 5 euros if I bought them from the pet store (dried, not fresh). But I get them for free and it makes Mellie happy and busy for a few days (I give her half of each piece once a week or so)..

The day this immigrant first discovered chokos.

"The humble choko is often seen as nothing more than a creeping wild vine across Australian backyards, sheds and neighbourhoods, but this fruit has a long and travelled history.

Originating in Mexico, where it was a staple food for the Aztecs and other indigenous societies, the choko travelled from Central America to Europe during the Columbian exchange in the 16th century. From there, it traversed Asia and, finally, came to Australia.

... While it’s better known in Chinese cuisine as a staple vegetable with various cooking methods, the history of its culinary use in Australia is far different.

... Chokos in Australia were known as a ’filler’ for low-income families during the Great Depression. Given the choko's ability to grow wild and yield plenty of crops, it was seen as a free backyard source of fibre and nutrition. I can understand why some people can’t touch choko if they ate it a lot in their younger years and got sick of it – I’m not sure I would want to eat it a couple of times a week."

Today in Labor History February 4, 1974: The Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) kidnapped Patty Hearst, granddaughter of American publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, in Berkeley, California. One of the SLA’s demands for releasing Hearst was for her family to pay for millions of dollars’ worth of food to be given out free the poor and unhoused of the San Francisco Bay Area. The Hearst complied, with various community organizations distributing 100,000 bags of groceries at 16 sites in 4 counties, before violence brought the program to a halt. The violence occurred because the crowds were bigger than expected and workers started throwing boxes of food off of moving trucks. As a captive, Patty Hearst was held in a closet, blindfolded, with her hands tied, raped and threatened repeatedly with death. She was later offered the choice of freedom, or joining the SLA. She chose the latter. Consequently, she was later sentenced to 35 years in prison for her complicity in SLA robberies. After several years in prison, her sentence was commuted by President Carter. President Clinton pardoned her. Congressional Representative Leo Ryan was murdered by the Jim Jones cult in Guyana several weeks after collecting signatures for her release. Actor John Wayne, of all people, expressed frustration that everyone accepted the idea that Jones had brainwashed hundreds of his followers into mass suicide, but wouldn’t accept that the SLA could have brainwashed a teenage girl. After her release, Hearst went on to become an actress, appearing in several John Waters films, as well as many others.

Nossa essa resposta a pergunta de "se disponibilizarmos comida de graça, como vamos evitar que algumas pessoas peguem mais do que elas precisam?" Foi tão bem construída que me deu vontade de participar dum projeto assim

Infosec ExchangeTinker ☀️ (@tinker@infosec.exchange)Trash Panda (@raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest) asks a great question regarding "Free Fridges" and Post-Scarcity Mutual Aid Food Distribution: Original Question and Thread: https://hollow.raccoon.quest/notes/a2jvqqajuvif0aog Question: "A thing that would worry me is people taking advantage of this and taking a shitload of food without needing it. Like, people who could just afford buying it, you know? Does it ever happen?" Awesome question! And it has a couple of answers or way to approach it. I'll try to answer it in those couple of ways. Answer 1) Let them. Let them take as much as they want or need. We'll just produce more. We have the means. - There is often a worry of people "abusing" a system. This is a SCARCITY mindset. It worries that there's not enough to go around, so folks will abuse it and take from others.... BUUUUUT.... there IS enough to go around... you can take what you need, heck take more than you need, and it will be fine. We. Have. Enough. Answer 2) Let's actually threat model this out. Like... Is this really a problem? If so... who would do it. So the short answer is, it's not really a problem in practice. There are many free fridges already going. No one really "abuses" (in any meaningful definition of the word) the system. So it's not a hypothetical. We can just look at what's actually happening. And it's not a concern. Long Answer: When you grow up in scarcity and first encounter post-scarcity, it is NORMAL to hoard things. Let me say that again. It is NORMAL for people to take what they need NOW and then take more for what they think they will need LATER for security and even add a buffer on top of that JUST TO BE SURE!!! Cool. Let them. After a while, they realize that they TOO are not consuming all they have and they start to FEED BACK INTO the post-scarcity input / output. This is called healing. Artificial Scarcity (read Capitalism) hurts people. Post-Scarcity Mutual Aid heals people. If part of that process is them using the post-scarcity system a lot until they heal and get used to having enough... then it's chill. Let them "abuse" it. It'll be fine. Answer 3) If we give into this fear, we produce the result of the fear without the fear itself ever needing to be realized. To put it another way, if we worry people will abuse it and there won't be enough food for others, and we don't do it out of that fear... then..... there DEFINITELY isn't food for others. Lol! Out of a fear that the prophesy will come true, we have ensured that it came true. So... like.... just do it... and deal with any problems that come up when they do. Answer 4) You mentioned "People who could just afford buying it" could take things they don't need. Cool. Let them! I don't want ANYONE to have to pay for food. I want food to be free. But this line of thinking that we ONLY GIVE TO THOSE WHO DESERVE IT leads to insidious things like "means testing' where we SPEND MORE MONEY AND TIME AND EFFORT to keep food out of the mouths of those who "might not need it" than if we just used that money time and effort to feed everyone including th e "rich". Post-scarcity means post. scarcity. It's not scarce. You can get free food even if you could afford to buy it. Just feed people. We have enough. #postScarcity #freeFridge #mutualAid #solarPunk

I wanted to capture the essence of community support and kindness through this artwork. The vibrant colors and the inviting imagery aim to create a sense of comfort and hope. I hope to encourage others to think about the role we all play in helping those who are hungry.
