    Oh, to be a seamstress, stitching clothes for the farmer’s infant son in exchange for a sack of wheat and 6 ounces of butter

      Hate to ask what you’d need to do for a steak… 🤐

        The current infant-clothes to steak exchange rate is unfavorable. It would be wiser to hold off till the late autumn, when steak futures usually fall and clothing values skyrocket.

          Reasonable. See you in the back-40.

      Yeah let’s all go back to subsistence agriculture! Every time my mind wanders and I find myself romanticizing an age of simpler times and communal living I remind myself of the realities of that sort of lifestyle.
