Stretching helps. Try to touch your toes every morning. If you can’t reach them, ask someone else to touch your toes for you.

Have you tried Asian and indian grocery stores? I get Thai jasmine rice from a Vietnamese shop near me, but they also sell it at the Indian supermarkets. They have lots of spices in bulk too.

Rice, lentils, peas, beans, wheat berries, barley, oats, etc. But if you buy in large bulk (which you should do for the cost savings), you should repack the goods into smaller individually sealed containers. Because a 25kg bag of rice, once opened, will take a small family all year to get through, and having an open bag of rice attracts rodents, weevils, moisture, mould and dust. Pack it down into half kilo or 1kg containers, ideally vacuum sealed or with some other preventative treatment. Then only open 1 container at a time.

It’s easy to go overboard and make silly choices, but it’s also easy to plan a good contingency. I keep 1 year of dried food and 3 months of canned / jarred / frozen food. Any more than that and it gets wasteful for me. I have backup grid-independent solar power, and I also keep a small veggie garden going most of the year.
I like to re-pack my dried foods into emptied, washed, and dried PET bottles, because they store better. I use 1L Waterford’s bottles because their shape is perfect for maximizing storage and stack ability. I repack large bags of dried food into these with oxygen absorbers, and packed this way, rice, lentils, wheat berries, and barley will last 20 years. Rolled oats will last a couple years. Sugar and salt will last indefinitely.
Keeping a rigid system of labelling, inspecting and rotating your goods is as important as having them in the firstvplace

You bought land, right? Right!?
- Comment on That's how the world works. 6 days ago:
Buying dry food is probably better than canned. It’s lighter, stores for longer, and is much more compact.

- Comment on Anon is terminally lonely 1 week ago:
Anon is threat-sensitive anxiety.
The message is an unexpected intrusion, with right answers and wrong answers but it’s not clear which is which. “Morning beautiful! 😍 💕” Is insincere because anon doesnt feel that cheerful, and anon lacks confidence in his ability to be convincingly insincere, as well as feeling like a fraud for having to pretend to be happy, AND is acutely reminded of his inability to be happy. “Morning” is muted and emotionless, bound to be inadequate, possibly signalling anger or discontent. "👍 " Is definitely a no-go, probably. Non-response is also just kicking the can down the road, eventually he has to respond, AND come up with an excuse why he took so long.
Anon has just woken up and immediately needs to deal with a scenario that his threat-model doesn’t cover, and where a wrong answer will have real-world consequences, possibly derailing his whole day and impacting his relationship over the longer term.
Anon is exhausted from the constant wargaming with all the minutiae of life.
