Not being able to drink coffee without milk is a torture when being lactose intolerant :CirnoCry:
@Chizu @Kiriribusaki Indeed but harder to come by here in brazil and double the price of soy milk
@Spaghettimon @Kiriribusaki I know they are similar prices elsewhere, that's just a brazil thing.
@Chizu @Kiriribusaki Yeah, perks of being the largest producer of soy in the world
Cheaper than actual milk even
@Spaghettimon @Valiumboy @Chizu @Kiriribusaki that's like half what we pay and milk is one of the few things we dont import...
@Spaghettimon @Valiumboy @Chizu @Kiriribusaki am seriously considering an eventual migration to tropical brazil

i want cheap food and well-oiled loli beach booties
@bitterblossom @Kiriribusaki @Spaghettimon @Valiumboy For example, try to buy electronics in basically any country that isn't among the richest and you will pay a fortune

@Chizu @bitterblossom @Valiumboy @Kiriribusaki @Spaghettimon What if someone buys electronics from a first world address, then has it shipped by a friend over to them, they pay cheap price plus shipping cost. Will it get stolen in the slum post office?

@Jazzy_Butts @Chizu @bitterblossom @Valiumboy @Kiriribusaki No, even more so because we have only 2 post offices, one of them, the largest and oldest, being in a city famous for not having slums

@Spaghettimon @bitterblossom @Valiumboy @Chizu @Kiriribusaki I didn't mean to offend, here we have slums, and sometimes our post gets stolen, by workers, in the slum areas. So I assumed since chizu said it was expensive and not rich I thought it would have slums.

@Chizu @Jazzy_Butts @Kiriribusaki @Valiumboy @bitterblossom It is cost effective
Considering the current national minimum wage (~300USD) you can buy food for a month, pay bills and, if you're in the public housing system, pay for your house (10USD per month for 20 years and it's yours) and usually even save

That's if you're not in another social program, like the Basic Casket, which gives free food and cleaning/hygiene products or the again Family Purse, which gives money to poor people for free also, only attachments is having vaccines on day and all your children in school (and earn less than 1 minimum wage per person on family)

There's so much free stuff that yes, it does end up being worth it
