There's a whole universe of pasta, rice dishes and soups/stews. There's also baked goods if you're into that sort of thing.

If you can find anything like this, give it a try:



I can find them here in the states for like $2.50. Microwaves in 60 seconds. Serve on rice, which you can have ready in a container in your fridge.

They even make microwaveable rice that's ready in under 2 minutes, convenience is the worst possible argument against giving up meat in this day and age

I tried that on a dare once to turn it into fried rice and it was horrible.

Always buy a giant bag of rice from the market and cook it yourself.

I got a box of 8 of these from on sale once and they're good and convenient. You can get a big meal out of one packet or two regular sized meals if you have it with like rice or something. I'm not vegetarian but it's a good option.

Lentils are one of those things that don't require pollination too, aren't they? Meaning they might actually be around for more than a few more years!

In other climate news, here's a cool story* about deforestation for palm oil

*it's not a cool story it's about an orangutan mother who was shot 72 times with a pellet rifles and just barely survived the trauma to wake up to the fact that her child didn't.

my favorite part of that Man Vs. Beast show that Fox ran about a decade ago was the tug-of-war against an orangutan. you could tell they trained the fella to not just win right away, that would have been bad television. instead the human is just heaving and straining and the orang's got the rope held between three fingers on one hand, grooming himself with his other hand.

Summer is the correct time for hail it's just that 3-4 feet of it seems excessive.

The 3-4 feet of it is in places where the water normally drains causing it to build up, there is not 3-4 feet of hail all over the place

I've seen some hail showers in summer here in California but if I walked outside and literally everything was covered in 3-4 feet of snow/hail that'd be loving wild. I am pretty sure the transit people wouldn't even be equipped to clear it - not like anyone has snow plows for San Diego roads.

We can fix this all with nuclear power!

Drought and overheating of river water may force some of the nuclear power plants that supply two-thirds of France’s electricity to shut down temporarily in the wake of the European heatwave.

A chart illustrating the highest temperature seen throughout the month of June going back 80 years for Kotelny Island which borders both the East Siberian and Laptev Seas (where all that undersea permafrost is). The highest peak on record was hit this past month, 4C higher than any previous June.

(also most Air Conditioners break when its too hot, which is actually cool n good)

imo the Rubicon was crossed about 2014-2015 when the Arctic ice cover just would not recover over the winter and by February the ice forums were like "aww poo poo here we go folks' and then next year introduced the phrase "polar vortex" to everyone's vocabulary. Personally I remain amazed that humanity as a whole doesn't panic.

The problem isn't that we can't run the nuclear power plants, the problem is that they'd fry everything living in the river if they kept running. We're at the point of needing to do triage - is it important to offset making a bigger problem, or is it important to preserve and protect an environment that's unlikely to exist in 30 years? Naturally we're far more concerned about what would cause outrage immediately rather than what causes extinction later. Hooray for quarterly reports.

Dunno about the panels but the batteries don't like the heat.
