    And make sure at least one person in your future gang is a really good cook. You want your dumpster stew to be as close to edible as possible.

      This, seriously !

      When I was going to youth camp (2-3 weeks camping in the forest every summer plus weekend during the years) I realize that the mood of a team during the bad time (cold, wet from the rain, no hot shower for days …) was strongly related to how good the cook was.

      Fuck yeah, many years of living in poverty have made me an exceptionally good cook when improvising with whatever I have left, as well as with canned and dried foodstuffs (that are cheap to buy in bulk and don’t expire easily). My time to be a valuable member of society is at hand!

        Solidarity!

        I was considering a cook book (when cook books were a thing when books were a thing) called “the ghetto gourmet”

        It all comes down to stocking up on herbs and spices. And knowing what pairs.
