Addition: The amount of bombs that Israel and the US have dropped on Gaza in the pursuit of genocide and settler-colonialism have significantly contributed to climate change over the past couple years and is directly linked to so many “once in a century” and “never before seen” weather and temperatures.

“Im not seeing this anywhere is this real?” It’s breaking news from a journalist in his hospital who previously broke sensitive medical news on him. There literally hasn’t been time to write articles yet headasses

Even trump folks are starting to talk about it (granted, Loomer,,,)

But also like, folks knew this was likely coming. This isn’t shocking it was mostly just a matter of when.

i feel like every time there's a Doordash Discourse Event the logical middle ground is that food delivery is obviously a necessity that a lot of people with disabilities etc should be allowed to access..........and in turn that delivery drivers should be well-paid, respected as providers of an important service (and yknow, human beings) and not be beholden to the merciless gig economy. and yet somehow it always comes down to "actually i dont believe in food allergies" type hyperbole lol

[ospreyonthemoon]

Yeah like. They are providing a service and should be paid fairly for it, and the service is necessary and beneficial to many peoples quality of life. Once again

The issue is that the gig economy sucks and people ordering food should be getting paid enough that they can afford to pay people fairly for the services rendered unto them.

[kitstacean]

everytime I think about food service I just sort of despair, because surely, surely there's an efficient business model in there that's not exploitative and also not prohibitively expensive.

Lots of people cannot, or don't want to cook. Lots of food is simply more efficient to make in bulk. Instead of 7 households each making 1 pot of food, make a single pot that serves 7 households.

Would you be able to create a kind of middle between home cooking and takeout, where you hire a nearby restaurant to make all of your meals and deliver it to you? Even without the delivery, you just show up at a set time every day and collect your meal.

Can someone form a business which just makes pre-ordered meals and delivers within a certain postcode? Less ingredient waste than a takeaway place (all the food is pre-ordered), more efficient than most restaurants (you cook One meal for everyone), more time efficient than each customer making their own food. If you know the delivery route ahead of time, it's a lot more time efficient than doordash. It can be a lot more enviro friendly - if you're delivering 5 meals a week, just give them reusable containers. It's back to the milkman, but for food.

What are the barriers to this? Why can't we do this?

[runawaymarbles]

Can someone form a business which just makes pre-ordered meals and delivers within a certain postcode?

This is how pretty much every pizza and Chinese restaurant used to function. Many of them still do this.

That's the thing that's baffling to me about this discourse is... non exploitative food delivery used to exist. Not even ten years ago. There were fewer options because you couldn't get food from across the city or whatever, but you'd collect takeout menus from local restaurants that delivered to your zip code--often they'd mail them out-- and when you wanted to order food you'd get them out, decide what you want, call them, and an employee of the restaurant would drive it over to you. Sometimes in a restaurant-owner car. And they didn't have to pay a 30-50% cut to DoorDash.

Lots of places still do this. Sometimes you just have to call them on the phone.

if you are a person between the ages of 18-35, do you volunteer and if not, why?

yes I volunteer

no, because I don't have the time

no, because I don't have the transportation

no, because there are no causes in my area I want to give my time to

no, because I don't meet anyone to form a community with through volunteer work

no, because I don't believe my efforts would make any difference

no, because I disagree with the way these programs are run

no, because I do not have the physical/mental ability

no, for some other reason I'll explain in the tags

I'm over 35 years old
