    Do the rom hack right.

    • Toll roads everywhere. Paid each time you enter.
    • Pokemart is a monopoly and gouges you.
    • Arceusism is the state religion and others are barely tolerated.
    • Gyms are privatized and cost per attempt.
    • Pokemon sweatshops.
    • PC access is a freemiun model where you get the first 5 for free, but beyond that you have to pay for Pokestorage+ and pay monthly. Also pokes come out hating you so pretty sure they getting abused. And occasionally pokes get lost.


  • Look up the piece by pbs and by John Oliver. They also do a cocoa bean tracking system so they know where the beans are coming from. This is importa t to know that the beans are coming from the good farms and not from the bad ones. All that being said, they say they can’t say slavery free due to how bad it is in that area. They can’t guarantee that.
    I think for me it’s as simple as - do I go with the brand that seems to be doing something about it? Or go with the brand that misses it’s own targets and is satisfied with the horrible status quo







    • Muffins/Swiss rolls - depends on how much it is but I get it being a quick comfort food. However, check if there’s a bakery of some kind (including
      Chinese / Latino bakeries) near you. It’s nearly as cheap or cheaper and much fresher. Good bread there too.
    • Pasta sauce: my wife actually just makes a Alfredo sauce from scratch and it seems to be just a bit more complicated than Mac and cheese sauce. Flour, milk, and cheese. Probably a lot more cost effective.
    • Instead of a red tomato sauce I would buy diced tomatoes ( or those fire riasted ones) and dump them over noodles. It tastes better than the bottled red sauce.
    • Mac and cheese: see above - but also, if you’re going to get it, get the box. The single serve things are worse than the generic box Mac.
      -froze spinach is great. Try throwing that in whatever you’re cooking. Never goes bad. Already bite sized.
      -Also, you gotta report that grocery store. Cats are friends not food.
