This was at a Price Chopper in western central MO

Price Chopper actually

I went to get chicken for some meal prep a couple of days ago (Missouri, US) and a 1lb container of just chicken breast tenders costs $13, I figured it was a “labor” cost for cutting the tenders off before the customer buys it, like how a container of diced onion costs an order of magnitude higher than just buying a whole onion, but nope, the pack of 2 breasts right next to it cost basically the same, maybe only 50 cents cheaper, and I wasn’t in anything expensive like a whole foods, just a generic lowcost midwest regional store. It’s absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention 2 orange or red bell peppers costs $5…

I picked up photography back in May which just started by getting an old point and shoot digicam to take convincing liminal space photos, then I got another… then another… then some film old cameras, a cheap DSLR a set of lens, etc. Etc. It’s become a full on addiction at this point lol

Oh wow, had no clue Lemmy had that layout as a feature as well, that might actually get a couple converts out of my friend group.

I haven’t deleted my account just yet but I joined reddit 12 years ago this month, once RIF went under om the 1st I stopped visiting the site altogether. I have friends that still regularly use the site, mainly through old.reddit whom I’ve told about Lemmy but just aren’t quite ready to switch over and that’s their choice, due to the amount of content still on the site I can’t necessarily blame them, but I just can’t in good conscience give reddit the traffic now that they’ve gone full twitter in their corporate decision making.

I have to agree with this one. I got premium way back in 2015 when it first came out as youtube red, my reasoning at the time was since it came with Play Music, no ads on youtube videos, and at the time cost the same as a spotify subscription, I could have the same music library I was already paying for PLUS youtube without ads every 10 seconds and access to youtube red exclusive content, Mindfield by Vsauce and the Rooster Teeth movies at the time, I was getting more for the same 10 bucks. I was sad to see play music go but youtube music letting me add songs to my playlists from videos on youtube if the song itself isn’t directly in the streaming service is pretty cool and I’ve been grandfathered into the same price, so I still pay the same $10/mo now that I did 8 years ago. Only subscription I’ll ever actually tell anyone is worth getting over just using an adblocker instead.
