dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

affordability and accessibility are absolutely meshed with tradition. most people are not formally trained in cooking or gardening, so tradition is what folk's expectations and imaginations are moderated by.

i wouldn't know anything outside of anglo-french cooking were it not sought out extracurricular or passed down from someone else that broke out of it

I see your point, though I have my doubts how much of it is, to this day, economic necessity in relation to different cultures elsewhere that also had economic necessities going way back but nonetheless don't stick to beans on toast or the equivalent when they no longer have to.
