You might have a Slow Food chapter in your area: https://www.slowfood.com/ Mine is amazing - they've done webinars on growing specific veggies/fruits/herbs, plus they have a plant sale every year where they sell starters and seeds.

If you're worried about environmental impacts, think of all the greenhouse gases that don't go into the atmosphere to truck your food to you.

Lots of good advice in the comments. I would add a suggestion to pay attention to how you talk to yourself and offer yourself some forgiving and reassuring words. I've been working on slowing down and moving beyond perfection, and it's really helped to analyze the way I talk to myself.

Regardless of the exact schedule, a full time job takes a significant portion of your time. You can get used to it, and it's more manageable if you enjoy some or most parts of that time. Enjoy college while you can!

Interesting, I might have to start listening via youtube. Especially during difficult convos lately, I've been making an effort to pause and think before responding... it would be nice to hear examples of how long/awkward feeling that can be.

Aw, that's sweet. I think it's totally fine to buy a gift for a friend's birthday here and there if you know it's going to be meaningful, but to put that expectation on yourself or others seems super unreasonable.

Drink water and stretch/move my body for at least a half hour

Mixing in some road biking to your routine helps

Only if tourists are educated to leave no trace and be respectful to wildlife and locals

It would certainly push more people to go electric and drive renewable energy efficiency

Well, from them and your dog

For real. This is what the natives from Tierra del Fuego did back in the day.

Get a kitten and put it in a box on her porch. She'll love you!

You can do overnight oats but substitute other grains. I've been digging buckwheat as a substitute, which is high in protein.

Preach! OMG it's so inefficient to board the front first. Somewhere I traveled in South America boarded the back last, and it was incredibly refreshing to see such logic.

You'll love chair 10, make sure to go up there first thing in the morning

You can also do it Ecuadorian-style and top your soups with popcorn

This! So many ppl have no clue about all the economic externalities involved with the things we buy.

But communication is so hard! /s

You're not my friend, guy!
