I live in the bush and only go into town once a week, so I usually bulk buy and plan meals. I also get cut off during flooding, so if it’s the rainy season and a risk of flood I stock up.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?
41·15 days agoNot entirely no.
"
Scholars primarily use the term to refer to classical liberalism.
British liberalism is now organised between two schools;
- the social liberalism of the Liberal Democrats (member LI, ALDE) and their counterpart the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland (member LI, ALDE),
- and the classical liberalism of the Conservative Party which was adopted in the late 1970s by the late former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher " - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism_in_the_United_Kingdom
Neoliberalism is a more contemporary version of classical liberalism

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA?
4011·15 days agoLiberalism in America refers to social liberalism. IE: justice, government management of social services(health, education, welfare, infrastructure). In this scenario, the government looking after its citizens.
Liberalism in the rest of the world refers to Neoliberalism. IE: capitalism on a pedestal, privatization of public services, limited government intervention in all areas(business, labour, environment, health, education). In this scenario, private business and “the free market” determine what is and isn’t good(IE profit is the greatest good).

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the alternatives to commodity housing?
2·29 days agoFrom what I have read in the past, there are different models that different coops follow. Most have a limit on the number of dwellings, both from the government and coop planning, if they have hit the max number you would have to purchase from an existing member. From the coop properties I’ve looked at, they can be well below market rate but that’s because you are buying into a community and there are expectations and responsibilities not found in non-coop living. A little like American HOAs.
There are some coops that have strict requirements to join, like womens only coops or some that follow certain beliefs(environmental, political or spiritual and some can feel a bit cult-like). You can’t demand market rates when you have such heavy restrictions and demands of property owners.

14·2 months agoHeres me living in Aus reading these comments saying this is normal, thinking its insane. We just pull up to the bowser, wave to the cashier and start pumping petrol. People would be livid if they saw a $150 auth charge. The petrol station would be getting dragged in the news.

Definitely ask your GP to refer you to different therapist. If trauma is the main issue maybe ask about EMDR instead of therapists who specialize in CBT
