I love me some Costa Rican-style beans and rice. It'll be interesting to see what people will consume in lieu of eggs, should the price become prohibitive long-term.

Geez this country is really obsessed with eggs. Almost like it's some kind of hard addiction.

At this point, I'm astonished no one has come up with some kind of synthetic egg that looks, acts, and tastes just like the real thing.

It appears a hen needs about 115g of feed a day to produce one 50g egg, so the product yield is less than half the input, plus all the other overhead like conditioned living space, water, antibiotics, lobbying for ag-gag laws against animal rights activists... I bet someone could come up with a more efficient way to make an egg. They could even call it something like "Aeg(TM)" which could have some cute marketing meaning.

As foretold by the prophetical Team American: World Police

I think the implicit assumption is if they didn't take the offer ("easy way"), they'd then get the "hard way," in which the US receives the same end result, but no one in Greenland gets the million. It churns the bile in my guts that anyone on earth is even having this discussion with a modicum of seriousness. Greenland is for Greenlanders.

Yeah, they definitely don't come off as apolitical monks seeking enlightenment. Maybe Yoda...

Certainly arrogant and a little too aware and appreciative of their own power and what it could get them.

I had to do a tripletake when I saw your post. Yours look almost exactly like mine, down to the exact same facial expressions. It felt surreal to see someone else posting pictures of my cats in an unfamiliar house.

Reminds me of this cute lil short story: https://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/treks-end/

Well hey there kitty twin!

I wonder if the spot price of lead has changed.

Potatoes for the Rockefellers, Carnegies, and Morgans, maybe. We have to forage for pinecones and dip them in reddish mud and/or blackish mud if we want anything close to resembling an Easter egg hunt.

Boo-urns!

Wow. I knew they were sick, but holy shit, I didn't realize they were that sick.
