Grow your own blueberry bushes and then you can have more blueberries for 3 weeks during the height of summer than you could possibly use for the next 2 years but it's too fucking hot to pick them and the birds eat them all so quickly that you end up having to buy those sweet blue balls from the grocery store for the other 49 weeks of the year regardless.
Plus, it’s hard to grow a blueberry bush in an apartment window box.
I'm not a blueberry expert, so I don't know the specifics, but there are compact varieties that are designed for growing in pots. Those would probably do well enough in a window box if you had the right light exposure and climate. Regardless, if you have the right light and climate for blueberries, there are almost certainly plenty of other fruits, herbs, and veggies that would be more productive, easier to care for, and have a higher return on investment.
I grew my own blueberry bush. It took three years to set fruit, that year my pug discovered he could eat all the blueberries off the bush before they were ripe, which delighted him, and then it tumped over and died. A ground cherry is a much hardier fruit but still not pug resistant.
As with most doomer posts, 2/3 of that is just a problem of being addicted to social media - not necessarily a problem with the era itself.
It's weird that people didn't get addicted to social media in other eras, isn't it?
Social media is just gossip refined and people have always liked gossip. But social media is to gossip what heroin is to poppy seeds.
exactly 1/3 of this post is about social media
I'm falling to see how AI being used for stupid shit or rent prices skyrocketing is a byproduct of social media addiction.
Also, there's something to be said about the fact that we/our governments are allowing social medias to be heavily engineered to be this addictive in the first place
The worst thing is when I look at my life and realise this is the best situation I’ve ever been.
I aspire to someday buy a banana. How much could they cost?
It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, ten dollars?
Pfft screw that. I've got avocado toast to buy.
I've never been on the internet, much less a smartphone, and I'm still depressed as shit.
Can confirm, never saw this fart on the internet.
Also who keeps depressing shit? Is it like an agricultural technique to add nitrogen compounds to the soil?
Someone take this person to jail for their username
shiny rectangles are monsters
To ease the suffering I switch between the use of several different shiny rectangles of various sized and technology. All of them are monsters, but each is different.
They are the best and worst thing to happen to society.

Frozen blueberries are awesome. Fresh are nice and I am spoiled being in Washington State but I enjoy frozen blueberries so much. You can eat it for a snack! Dogs love them as treats!
This meme is so basic, it's probably made by a bot.
Don't give them any ideas. Blueberries and sometimes strawberries are the only thing that's cheap anymore. Blueberries are cheaper than cereal by a factor of up to 10 (3 cents an ounce frozen or 6 cents an ounce fresh vs 20-30 cents an ounce for cereal). Sure, they're mostly water and cereal is mostly calories, but the cost of both is dominated by transportation and the blueberries cost more to grow, harvest and handle.
People don’t want to know this, but they voted for this. And they’ll keep voting for it with every decision they make that affirms the status quo.
Who or what did you vote that is supposed to make all the problems go away?
Self-ownership. Stop blaming other people for your problems and figure out a solution instead of constantly commiserating with everyone else.
Most people will never tell you this, but they enjoy their own suffering. It gives them comfort. It gives them security, because it's predictable. It allows them to avoid taking any risks, and it allows them to get angry at anyone who is threatening to take that away from them. Suffering is like a drug, and most people are hopelessly addicted to it.
Blueberries are expensive. Look at Mr. Moneybags over here!
