the low price of food makes people think it's okay to waste it https://t.co/fkySM3jk8s
just because i paid $10 for a vegetable, doesn't mean my obligation to it is over it didn't come from just the grocery story, or even the farmer it came from the earth, the same stuff my body is made of and living with it's nice to finally begin living in reciprocity with it
but my relationship with the world of stuff precedes that i am sovereign! i can... do whatever i want! including interacting with the market system, and its wonderful system of getting me things for cheap with prices but it doesn't own me. it hasn't put its price on my soul
fwiw i do find markets incredibly beautiful. but only when you see them as an external, real, living creature. you can relate to them as a thing in your life. not your life https://t.co/RDU8QtbfAO
