"The secret is to have a neighbor group chat for DoorDash and split the fees," in chat, I'm dying.

the real problem the "sandwich ingredients come in too big of a package" guy is actually having is that he lives too far from the nearest grocery store. i moved to a house w 3 tiny mom n pop groceries within a 30 second walk of me & i eat more sandwiches than ever bc the ingredient quantities not lining up just doesn't matter. i run out of cheese? i grab a 20 off the counter & 40 seconds later ive got cheese again. and it turns out, being friendly with a shopkeeper you can see without removing more than a minute off your day is like, super good for your mental health. turns out people arent supposed to exist within a society designed like a solitary confinement torture chamber, who knew!
@@Furiac.*saint peter at the pearly gates telling you which religion was the correct one to get into heaven voice* yeah it turns out it was no parking minimums & legalized mixed use development all along actually i was mulling this over in the shower & not only does nobody having a parking lot for their business & being allowed to convert the front room of their apartment into a single-room business attached to their home fix that guy's problem with sandwiches, but also it fixes that same problem with most food because all the groceries here send someone down to the farmer's market to pick out fresh produce, slices it up the way you need for common meals and then just sells those in single-use quantity for like, a dollar. instead of needing to buy an entire watermelon to get to eat any amount of watermelon & they can literally only do that because the rent to run a business is so low -- even if you factor out the relative cost of land in the city (where i live is actually very expensive for the region) purely because parking minimums will AT LEAST double the rent of a business while providing no utility most of the time, and there's simply no way for a quarter of a cucumber to pay its portion of rent for a car living space to sit empty 22 hours out of the day whereas if all the rent you gotta pay to run a profitable business is a single room of the apartment you are already renting anyway, that puts the opportunity cost of a single product so crazy low that it actually allows them to sell you services that are economically impossible for like, kroger to get away with. get this. the lady i buy groceries from noticed that i like to buy a bunch of her fresh tomatoes at once when i make shakshuka for my spouse instead of just getting a big pouch of tomato puree, so you know what she did? told me to let her know the day before i make it again & spent her downtime at the register peeling tomatoes and sold them to me the next day with a little extra markup for her time. and it cost, like, fucking nothing, whereas a big box store will charge you $10 for an apple just cuz they ran it thru a slicer that day i got restaurant quality food at home without having to do the long part of the prep, for less than the raw ingredients would have cost me from a box store, AND got a feeling of communal love in the process. (Of course I took her a helping) going back to north america feels like stepping onto the bus that takes you to prison.

How is that even remotely related to what he said wtf? The whole point is that he has too much, being closer would only give him more. Being closer to a store doesn't magically make food come in smaller quantities or make you want to eat the same food more.

its REALLY about a lot more than that and that's really just insultingly reductive to peoples genuine experiences. Their own rationalization might not stack up, i'm not saying that it does, but people don't just do things for no reason, unless you broadly believe that some people are just moral failures where others aren't. I'm also not suggesting some of these people aren't just entitled, have some disposable income, and want tasty food. But mixed into this conversation are people who genuinely struggle with specialized anxiety disorders that are in no small part exist due to the ambient existential dread that's taken hold of ALL generations. The people who are entitled or not are all doing things for the same reasons, fundamentally. People are at large more disassociated with the most basic social structures in their lives than ever. Because of unforeseen consequences of the information age, the degradation of the economy and the corruption of the institutions people are supposed to place their faith in, people feel jaded and like no choice they make practically matters (because in many senses, they don't. If you save 450 dollars on door-dash in a given month, in all likelihood, the statistics say that money will just go to other, similar expenses or washed down the infinite Cost of Living drain.) So does the whole situation really boil down to stupid people wasting their money for no reason, because they are lazy? Ignoring the fact that MOST of these people hold down one or multiple jobs and side hustles because that's the bare minimum required to survive in most places.

I think grocery shopping is something that parents need to actively take time out to teach their child when they are like 16 or 17 so they have the skills necessary to not get stressed out by it.
It's so easy too. Take them to a store and tell them "do you want this? yes? Ok pick it up. Do you think you'll want this later? Pick that up too" Yes they're going to be really annoying about it at first and pick up a bunch of junk food. Let them. Let them eat all the junk food and then feel like shit the next day. That's how you mature.
They really do. My little brother never learned, qnd our parents are gone (mom passed, dad is a deadbeat and bailed on us) and he just turned 21. Never been grocery shopping on his own in his life. Feels bad man. He wouldnt ever go with me, either (our relationship is a bit stressed right now) so idk how to get him moving that direction :(
Who the hell gets stressed out by grocery shopping? You have a phone, Google some recipes you like and have the tools to cook, then put the ingredient lists in your phone and go shop. Half these people are just willfully ignorant and make excuses for why they can't do the absolute basics
I'm so confused, how can people not cook? I was never taught to cook as a kid, but I figured it out myself. Now I follow recipes when I'm trying to learn something new. Why is it not possible for people to salt a steak and throw it on a hot pan and make a bowl of rice? And if you're feeling crazy you can boil some broccoli and you've got a meal.

my ex was severely depressed bc of addiction & it caused her to get addicted to doordash and genuinely kept her poor for several years, she'd doordash like $100 of food cuz shed get an order from the same place she always ordered & itd be inedibly gross, like it is every time bc some food doesnt work for delivery, & shed have to just throw it away and order from mcdonalds, several days a week. and people who are like "doordash is neccesary for disabled people you dont understand!!" drive me fucking crazy cuz the thing is -- do you know what she did before doordash existed? when she got hungry she'd whine about how she didn't feel like getting up, and then at some point she'd just get up anyway despite not feeling like it cuz at some point the biological need for self-preservation beats out non-hospitalization-worthy depression, and she'd go out to get like a like $3 hotsnack from the gas station, and more than half the time the simple act of being forced to leave the house actually made her depressive episode abate doordash is BAD for depressed people!! its straight up predatory. but people be out here like "you don't GET IT bro, heroine is GOOD for addicts bc it makes me feel good, its problematic to want people to get clean"
I agree with a lot of what you said, but it’s not always a temptation turned addiction thing for disabled people. And some people legitimately will starve to death before they can get up and go outside for food. For example, I have a medical condition (dysautonomia) that can cause me to lose energy in sudden, weeks long ‘crashes’. During that time period I lose a lot of weight because I can barely get out of bed, and if I do I’m fainting because of my blood pressure. So I don’t cook for myself or get food in general. As I eat less, my condition worsens, and as my condition worsens, I eat less. Generally the motivation to live is there but the physical ability to get up and eat isn’t. Often I’ll even be given food that I physically can’t eat because I feel so nauseous from being food deprived. I think in this case DoorDash is a good third option because often hyperpalatable foods can help me overcome that nausea, whereas the rotting food in the fridge will not and I’ll just continue to starve. Like it sound so stupid and makes me seem like this pitiful helpless child of a person, but that’s kind of just the stuff I have to deal with lol. Also I have low income and am responsible with my money so I don’t allow DoorDash to become an addiction. At my worst I’ll order it 2-3 times a week. I haven’t ordered in a few weeks thanks to the support of my friends and family, and the fact that I have been eating prevents me from going into those crashes where I’m alone in a house for weeks with no will to eat.
op, depressed is not the same as being physically disabled. do you understand that? you made an argument that said "i don't like when people use disability as a reason" and then used what you describe as "non-hospitalization-worthy depression" as an example, which is just confusing. as the commenter above described, a lot of people quite literally cannot leave bed- not due to mental health, but because we are so extremely ill that it would put us in danger. if i'm doordashing or getting delivery it's because i physically can't get out of bed. i have a very severe autoimmune disorder that makes me violently ill and faint in natural sunlight, as well as a degenerative muscle disease that makes it extremely difficult when paired with light sensitivity to even go out to a car without collapsing. in no world could i walk to go get food, or god forbid drive when i'm at risk of passing out for every second i'm outside. i have to rely on someone else to get through my day to day (i don't have access to a wheelchair or other mobility aids) and the rare occasion i have to have doordash etc, it's because i really, truly cannot do anything else. the original comment just feels hateful towards disabled people for the sake of it.
@@nearlynightmost people who are disabled are depressed -- depression is the #1 cause of disability, & most forms of disability also cause depression. so if being depressed is a good predictor of door dash being bad for you then door dash is bad for most disabled people
12:08 I just spent like 3 weeks alone (Family is out taking care of other family issues, I'm at home taking care of the cats) and I had like, 30 sandwiches in that time and 3 huge pots of chili as well as a handful of other things. If you want "One sandwich" what you do is get 1 loaf of bread, go to the deli counter, and ask for 2/4 slices of meat, or meats if you want to be fancy, and 1/2 slices of cheese, or cheeses if you're feeling particularly creamy. Then with your extra bread just leave it out and then bake it, now you have croutons. Or better yet, people can get over it and just get 2 different meats, some tuna and some chicken in a can, and just have 5 different sandwiches during the week, all literally just "Pull out and assemble" and now you've got 2 weeks of lunches solved. Buy some chips to pair with it or some microwave steam vegetables if you're feeling healthy. People don't know things like deli sections exist in most chains and think you have to buy the like tiny expensive Hillshire Farm pack, and most people working the deli counter will be happy to accommodate and give recommendations. A lot of people also don't understand leftovers (Or worse, have conditioned themselves to never want leftovers) and will see cooking a meal for more than 1 as a waste instead of seeing it as something to have the next day, or pop in the freezer and heat up whenever in the next 2 months. I made a quite good chili, and it became like, 7 meals, as chili dogs, chili fries, and some put away. I had effectively a week of dinners/lunches and then I ended up with enough in the freezer it can be lunch in like a month, probably 3 lunches. Literal microwave meals that take like 3 minutes to pull out, heat up, it takes longer air frying the hot dog than it takes to get the chili warm again. We're in a "One and Done" society, eat once, disregard the rest, use once, throw it out, etc, and that makes no economic sense and no time sense, we're not made to only make "One" thing, you cook like 12 meals to either split or have multiple times yourself.
My spouse's capacity for tolerating low food novelty is pretty close to "can reheat the same meal one time, if it was very good." Whereas I was, when living on my own, bouncing back and forth between six meals of jambalaya and six meals of chicken and dumplings, with one single different meal in between
yeah that shit was fuckin funny she's gonna realize like ten years from now that her kids don't want to be seen with her because during the most formative years of their life she just didn't hang out with them. she's just the lady that feeds them in their mind

I got my first post-college job in September 2021 making over 2x the money I ever made at the highest paying job I held before then. I fell into the trap of door dashing my food and hardly ever cooking. I spent almost $10K on DoorDash over 6 months and was wondering why I wasn’t able to save a substantial portion of my money. I finally woke up and in the past 2 years since, I’ve spent almost 10K on groceries. Literally 4x the value and I’m eating Ribeye steak and potatoes like 2-3 times per week. Anyone who justifies door dash has no shame or self awareness. Even when I was doing it every day, I was so shameful of it
I really was not trying to come off as bragging about the money or the steak, I was just trying to convey how much of my newly available income was being siphoned off without me realizing the gravity of it. And also just conveying that you have a healthy, delicious meal for less than half of door dashed chicken wings. I can buy a 4 pack of Ribeyes or New York Strips for the cost of one door dash order from BWW
And if you are lazy, like me, you can just buy potatoes, eggs, and multivitamins. Been eating nothing but that for like 18 months and I'm fine. People are spoiled.

I feel the way about Computers (including smart devices) as I do about NL's doordash take tbh. A lot of people just have it in their heads that anything even slightly below the surface is some Computer Hobbyist-tier skill that's completely irrelevant to them, even stuff like knowing what a "file" is. Even a *slight* amount of effort, the stuff my 80-year-old tech-illiterate uncle can do, will greatly expand what you can do with your computer. Somehow we've gotten to the point where a lot of people who consider themselves "techie" see their devices as conduits for platforms instead of tools they have agency over. It's not that I expect everyone to be an expert or an enthusiast, it's that I see people needlessly making things hard on themselves because they've been convinced that it's basically magic and they need to be of some sorta Techie Caste to know how to sideload an app for work or whatever.
This. A thousand times this. People basically let tech companies bully them around and are convinced they can't do anything about it. Like, just watch a UA-cam tutorial bros.
You should expect everyone to be an expert on the devices that they use every day and that their everyday existence depends upon. There are very few activities in modern life that do not revolve around a computer operating as intended. If you don't know how to use a computer competently, or operate and do basic maintenance on a motor vehicle, you have problems. At least know how to locate the information on how to do it if you aren't practiced in it.
@@soasertsusthe problem is that tech is made to be for everyone instead of anyone. there's no incentive to learn unless you're invested into deeper technology because the functionality is provided free of knowledge. I have to teach friends how to open/make .zip files while windows does all the work for you
Not even going to that point, there are people that show me their phone and ask me for a case or whatever. I'm like, "Uh, that phone looks like every phone that exists now. What kind of phone is it?" Then they say, "Its an iPhone" "Okay, what number? Which one?" "Idk" then internally, I scream, "how tf do you not know what phone you have?" "Is it an iPhone 6? 12? 15?" Then I have to tell them how to go to settings and see. This is really simple stuff. How do you buy something and not even know what you bought? How can you not navigate an extremely accessible list of options. Literally read the words. Is it feigned ignorance? It hurts.
It loops all the way back round to having milkmen again. Saves delivery fees when the milkman delivers milk/bread/eggs for the entire neighbourhood at once on a regular basis. There are quite a few milk delivery services again in my town, which I hadn't heard of anyone doing for 20 years.

Yeah I was pretty surprised at that too. I don’t have kids but I babysit and it’s so great to be able to play with them, use your imagination, and just have fun. Being a kid is such a short period of your life, that it’s nice to indulge in that kind of thing as an adult
I mean, to be fair, disabled people rely on plenty of very modern services and pieces of technology to get by when for other people said things might merely be a luxury. And before a lot of those services/conveniences, lots of disabled people would have to do things like skip meals or go without basic needs or miss work. Maybe it's not like that for doordash, maybe there is some obvious alternative that offers the same level of accessibility and isn't wildly expensive. But I don't actually know what it's like to have mobility issues that make going to the store an ordeal, so I don't feel super comfortable assuming that what is unnecessary for me is also unnecessary for others.
@@mooncrime4998 Twitter users are not in the business of putting themselves in someone else's shoes and would rather get cheap dunks lmao.

@@mooncrime4998 It would mostly be family members taking care of disabled people before stuff like Uber, DD, and working remotely became an option. Modern services free up those family members to no longer be as burdened by their role as caretaker.
As a disabled person, I feel compelled to say that there are 100% times I wouldn't have eaten and could have potentially died if not for door dash. Cooking is a physical and fire hazard for me as I pass out when exposed to heat. And some days i can't even stand upright long enough to get anything ready to eat. When I don't eat I get migraines, which make my blood pressure spike to scary numbers, which is a stroke risk. It's not often, but if I'm alone when that happens it's terrible, and Doordash is a solution.
In regards to the discussion @12:00 Grocery stores straight up DO offer individuals. If you go the fresh deli counter, you can request like 2 slices of each ingredient and then go to the bakery and pick up a bollio roll. The mayo and mustard is usually complimentary, so you can make a sandwich of dirt cheap. I used to do that at a SaveMart for like $1-2 per day on my lunch break.
The way I see the doordash discourse is simply: as long as you are aware of the cost, spend your money however you like. Delivery isn't for me personally, but if you want to do it everyday thats fine, its not my money you're spending.
The aggravating part is that these are the same people who are like "this is the worst recession ever food is so expensive" THEN STOP USING A MIDDLEMAN THAT DOUBLES THE PRICE OF THE FOOD JESUS CHRIST
I mean. You still have to go to a supermarket and man, its so fucked here. Still much cheaper than ordering food. But sometimes its close. Like i spent $28 (plus like 45 minutes getting ingredients and 1 hour in the kitchen) buying ingredients to make 3 burgers (no leftovers). I can get 2 decent quality burgers for that price from a few places. Its so frustrating. Food sucks.

Is it possible to be a lazy fuck and order breakfast without pathologizing it? I have anxiety but that’s not why I ordered breakfast, I don’t want to go anywhere.
yeah u just have to say ur a lazy fuck willing to spend it money on overpriced food. I'm mentally ill AF but it has nothing to do w/ me being a lazy bitch wanting McDonald's straight to my door lol
I mean the answer is no because pathologization is a part of the overall conquest of "rationalism." Everything must have a reason beyond your control. The most important thing now is to take away your agency. When people tell you you have ADHD, depression, autism, etc. these are mostly unhelpful terms that exist to put you in a box and make it hard to get out. The view is that people broadly are "maladaptive" and consequently neither have nor deserve freedom, but instead subjugation to an academic-finance duopoly composed of doctors, therapists, CEOs etc. looking to make a quick back and also in turn destroy your actual existence. Now that said, knowing I was suicidal and going to the therapist made me not suicidal, but also the important thing to most people was that I was suicidal at all. I couldn't be allowed to be suicidal, you aren't allowed to be outside the purview of authority, and that's what pathology is.
I think unless you're complaining about prices of food "these days" based on having door to door delivery service nobody is going to complain about whatever you're doing

I have a very unique and privileged situation where I'm 30 and retired. I doordash about 20hrs a week to get out and do something. I would NEVER use doordash to order food becuse of the cost ( and I love driving my cars but I digress) and can't imagine anyone making any type of livable wage doing doordash as an actual job.
ive doordashed between jobs before it definitely does feels barely worth the trouble at times. from what i hear good regular dashers get tossed the orders from the premium tippers, but until you build that rapport with doordash you gotta accept all the complete dog orders that aren't even worth the gas and just eat the loss for your doordash overlord.
I worked at an Amazon facility, and the amount of people making $15/hr ordering DD and UE was genuinely heart breaking. Single moms working, spending $25 on McDonalds ALMOST DAILY.
All these stories make me inclined to be believe that all of this is DDs fault rather than the individual consumers. DD found an exploit, got people addicted when it was artificially cheap, then slowly raised the price as investors money ran out. It sucks how much learned helplessness there is nowadays, but that’s all by design. Learned helplessness helps corporate profits rates
@@soymilkman at what point do individuals have to accept responsibility for their actions? Nobody tricked them into DD or UE, they know what the prices are and choose to pay them.

As someone who lives alone and orders delivery too much (my only defense: I do not have a car) I feel intensely called out, but it’s mostly fair. It really is past time to start getting groceries more regularly and cooking for myself more.
If you can afford it and are okay with spending x amount more on food then who cares? I'd honestly do the same because I'd rather spend the 20 minutes to an hour doing literally anything else. I can't justify the price so catch my ass eating a lot of soup and the occasional frozen pizza.
here's a tip: Groceries delivery. Yeah sure it cost me an extra 10$ on the 400$ I spent each month on groceries but at least I can comfortably sit at home and take my time picking everything I want. I had a time where I didn't do any groceries for about 3 years living off uber eats and local pizza chains, I probably spent double if not triple what I'm spending right now for basically the same effort.
I am a door dasher and will never buy it myself, if I’m feeling lazy at the bare minimum I’m still going to just pick up premade food but paying for the delivery and DoorDash up charging every item is just not worth it to me. Also lived alone for 4-5 years from 19-24 and meal prepping or even just taking a day to cut meat and veggies to freeze will save you so much time for later meals. Dishwashers are scientifically proven to be more effective and efficient than hand washing so the cleaning part is obsolete, I know this and still take the extra time to do my dishes by hand cause stubborn but I’m still doing my dishes
Food delivery services are good for those who need it, injured/handicapped people, car broke down, drunk/on drugs, etc but for regular use it’s just wasteful
If your depression is so bad you can't go to the grocery store and pick up frozen meals, go to the self-checkout so you don't have to interact with anybody, and then throw it in the microwave for 4 minutes. You don't need to be inventing a new system to microwave frozen meals, you need to seek desperate help to deal with your depression. It should be a wakeup call for you that you can't even microwave a frozen meal because of your depression and start actually doing something to help your situation.
@@Alo-is-io I strongly agree. This is coming from someone with clinical depression; getting out of the house and cooking my own meals was one of the breakout points to getting healthier. Not only mentally healthier, but physically too. I was eating healthier, feeling better, losing weight, and spending time doing something that gave me a sense of accomplishment when I cooked some bussin meals. "DoorDash keeps me in my cycle" is a terrible argument.
that’s a really good point. instant pots are great for when you’re depressed, because you can throw a bunch of stuff in a pot and it cooks itself. there’s this one meal i make that takes like 15 minutes and it’s way better than anything i could get off doordash. im gonna cook it tonight. you inspired me. (i havent cooked in a bit due to depression). thank you.
@@ChooopyOk, but I’m just genuinely amazed that cooking your meals helped with your depression. Everyone says it does but for me it only makes it worse.

Anecdote from a former Dasher: this one time I was sent to deliver someone's order from a burger place. The order? One ramekin of ranch dressing. I roll up to the house to find another driver delivering for the same person from the same location, just an actual delivery order. So what happened, as far as I can tell, is they have dash pass to avoid the regular delivery fee, they ordered and paid the 2 dollar bribe to doordash (1.99 for priority delivery, it just means this delivery isn't bundled with anyone else's and the driver doesn't see a cent of it in my experience). Then they realized immediately that they missed their side of ranch, so they make another delivery order for that side, assuming like a reasonable person that it's going to be sent with their other order. But they paid the bribe on the first one so that's going on its own. And I get beaned with the singular side of ranch delivery.
You can literally get meat and cheese for a couple sandwiches from a deli. They'll slice the meat and cheese to whatever weight you want. Grocery stores also have half loafs of sandwich bread too now.
I live in a big city and I decided to stop using delivery services a few years ago. Realistically, there are several restaurants within a 10m walk of my house. Sure, sometimes it's raining or there isn't sushi nearby. No one loves inconveniences but it's not difficult - I can walk down the road to order my own takeout. It's totally fine to use these services !! but the people acting like it's a necessity are delulu
11:19 You can go to a deli and get just enough meat, cheese, and bread for like 2 sandwiches. I get sandwich stuff from my local deli every week and just ask if they can hook me up with a few slices of bread for a couple bucks
The trick to talking to kids is connecting to your own inner child's wonderment at the normally mundane aspects of your daily life. They're excited that they found an acorn on the ground cuz it looks like a little rock wearing a beret? I remember thinking that shit was fire, so I can summon that genuine excitement, even if I already get it now and it's kinda just normal. It's like, you know when you show someone a show you like and you get vicariously excited when a big plot twist happens when you watch it with them, because even though you know what's coming, the new thing you're excited for is their reaction? It's like that, but for every child, and it's awesome as hell.
The sandwich guy doesn't realize he could literally solve his problem by baking his own bread, buying smaller tomatoes/heads of lettuce, and going to the deli counter for his meat instead of buying the pre-packaged stuff. The Doordash discourse seems to be composed primarily of people who just don't know how to cook. If you find yourself routinely throwing out extra ingredients you just need to look up recipes. Cooking for just myself is my favorite because I don't have to consider anyone else's flavor preferences and it takes less than 20 minutes for me to cook my meal and that includes cleaning up the kitchen and dishes before I even eat the food.
Around 2021-2022 I ordered groceries on uber eats. With the whole €6 subscription thing I paid 99 cents per delivery which made it really cheap. Since I moved ain't no way I'm paying over 5 bucks for that.
food delivery apps are only used in my household when i get emailed 50% off coupons (or better), so generally maybe like 10ish times a year the occasional buy one get one free order will be done if it makes sense price-wise
Used to get my lunch at work, Kroger, by getting the $1 bologna and cheese and whatever fruit I felt like getting. Then the fruit doubled in price and the sandwiches no longer exist. Now I eat whatever's available in the break room, usually nothing, or I eat, well, nothing. Even with a union I don't make enough to buy lunch five days a week
When people say it's more expensive to cook for one person than two: some chains of grocery stores prepackage food that is *only good because it is fresh* in counts that you'd never be able to eat yourself: eight tomatoes, a gallon of blueberries. A freah tomato does so much to punch up the taste of jambalaya, but the exchange rate is about one tomato per ten servings of jambalaya. You can make three to six BLTs with another one of the tomatoes, but you're not eating more than two BLTs and three servings of jambalaya in a day or you'll puke. Now you've got six four day old tomatoes, the clock is ticking.
Ironically streamers are the one profession where doordashing actually makes sense. The money saved by running the stream counteracts the doordash costs
I just realized how out of touch i am, because i "cook" for myself every day, and by cook i mean I heat up frozen food I kinda forgot that people are doing more than that, like buying ingredients and mixing them and stuff
In the UK there's 3 companies that do food delivery and there's always a deal happening on at least one of them so it honestly costs me like £1/2 more to order stuff most of the time

the real problem the "sandwich ingredients come in too big of a package" guy is actually having is that he lives too far from the nearest grocery store. i moved to a house w 3 tiny mom n pop groceries within a 30 second walk of me & i eat more sandwiches than ever bc the ingredient quantities not lining up just doesn't matter. i run out of cheese? i grab a 20 off the counter & 40 seconds later ive got cheese again. and it turns out, being friendly with a shopkeeper you can see without removing more than a minute off your day is like, super good for your mental health. turns out people arent supposed to exist within a society designed like a solitary confinement torture chamber, who knew!

@@Furiac.*saint peter at the pearly gates telling you which religion was the correct one to get into heaven voice* yeah it turns out it was no parking minimums & legalized mixed use development all along
actually i was mulling this over in the shower & not only does nobody having a parking lot for their business & being allowed to convert the front room of their apartment into a single-room business attached to their home fix that guy's problem with sandwiches, but also it fixes that same problem with most food because all the groceries here send someone down to the farmer's market to pick out fresh produce, slices it up the way you need for common meals and then just sells those in single-use quantity for like, a dollar. instead of needing to buy an entire watermelon to get to eat any amount of watermelon
& they can literally only do that because the rent to run a business is so low -- even if you factor out the relative cost of land in the city (where i live is actually very expensive for the region) purely because parking minimums will AT LEAST double the rent of a business while providing no utility most of the time, and there's simply no way for a quarter of a cucumber to pay its portion of rent for a car living space to sit empty 22 hours out of the day
whereas if all the rent you gotta pay to run a profitable business is a single room of the apartment you are already renting anyway, that puts the opportunity cost of a single product so crazy low that it actually allows them to sell you services that are economically impossible for like, kroger to get away with.
get this. the lady i buy groceries from noticed that i like to buy a bunch of her fresh tomatoes at once when i make shakshuka for my spouse instead of just getting a big pouch of tomato puree, so you know what she did? told me to let her know the day before i make it again & spent her downtime at the register peeling tomatoes and sold them to me the next day with a little extra markup for her time. and it cost, like, fucking nothing, whereas a big box store will charge you $10 for an apple just cuz they ran it thru a slicer
that day i got restaurant quality food at home without having to do the long part of the prep, for less than the raw ingredients would have cost me from a box store, AND got a feeling of communal love in the process. (Of course I took her a helping) going back to north america feels like stepping onto the bus that takes you to prison.

Doordash discourse be like "I'd rather ruin myself financially than overcome the slightest inconvenience when preventing my own starvation"
its REALLY about a lot more than that and that's really just insultingly reductive to peoples genuine experiences. Their own rationalization might not stack up, i'm not saying that it does, but people don't just do things for no reason, unless you broadly believe that some people are just moral failures where others aren't. I'm also not suggesting some of these people aren't just entitled, have some disposable income, and want tasty food. But mixed into this conversation are people who genuinely struggle with specialized anxiety disorders that are in no small part exist due to the ambient existential dread that's taken hold of ALL generations. The people who are entitled or not are all doing things for the same reasons, fundamentally. People are at large more disassociated with the most basic social structures in their lives than ever. Because of unforeseen consequences of the information age, the degradation of the economy and the corruption of the institutions people are supposed to place their faith in, people feel jaded and like no choice they make practically matters (because in many senses, they don't. If you save 450 dollars on door-dash in a given month, in all likelihood, the statistics say that money will just go to other, similar expenses or washed down the infinite Cost of Living drain.) So does the whole situation really boil down to stupid people wasting their money for no reason, because they are lazy? Ignoring the fact that MOST of these people hold down one or multiple jobs and side hustles because that's the bare minimum required to survive in most places.

I think grocery shopping is something that parents need to actively take time out to teach their child when they are like 16 or 17 so they have the skills necessary to not get stressed out by it.
It's so easy too. Take them to a store and tell them "do you want this? yes? Ok pick it up. Do you think you'll want this later? Pick that up too" Yes they're going to be really annoying about it at first and pick up a bunch of junk food. Let them. Let them eat all the junk food and then feel like shit the next day. That's how you mature.
They really do. My little brother never learned, qnd our parents are gone (mom passed, dad is a deadbeat and bailed on us) and he just turned 21. Never been grocery shopping on his own in his life. Feels bad man. He wouldnt ever go with me, either (our relationship is a bit stressed right now) so idk how to get him moving that direction :(
This, but start when they're 3, not 16.
TBH the stress has nothing to do with the process of shopping. I just need sunglasses and headphones to get through the building
Who the hell gets stressed out by grocery shopping?

and people who are like "doordash is neccesary for disabled people you dont understand!!" drive me fucking crazy cuz the thing is -- do you know what she did before doordash existed? when she got hungry she'd whine about how she didn't feel like getting up, and then at some point she'd just get up anyway despite not feeling like it cuz at some point the biological need for self-preservation beats out non-hospitalization-worthy depression, and she'd go out to get like a like $3 hotsnack from the gas station, and more than half the time the simple act of being forced to leave the house actually made her depressive episode abate
doordash is BAD for depressed people!! its straight up predatory. but people be out here like "you don't GET IT bro, heroine is GOOD for addicts bc it makes me feel good, its problematic to want people to get clean"
I agree with a lot of what you said, but it’s not always a temptation turned addiction thing for disabled people. And some people legitimately will starve to death before they can get up and go outside for food. For example, I have a medical condition (dysautonomia) that can cause me to lose energy in sudden, weeks long ‘crashes’. During that time period I lose a lot of weight because I can barely get out of bed, and if I do I’m fainting because of my blood pressure. So I don’t cook for myself or get food in general. As I eat less, my condition worsens, and as my condition worsens, I eat less. Generally the motivation to live is there but the physical ability to get up and eat isn’t. Often I’ll even be given food that I physically can’t eat because I feel so nauseous from being food deprived. I think in this case DoorDash is a good third option because often hyperpalatable foods can help me overcome that nausea, whereas the rotting food in the fridge will not and I’ll just continue to starve. Like it sound so stupid and makes me seem like this pitiful helpless child of a person, but that’s kind of just the stuff I have to deal with lol. Also I have low income and am responsible with my money so I don’t allow DoorDash to become an addiction. At my worst I’ll order it 2-3 times a week. I haven’t ordered in a few weeks thanks to the support of my friends and family, and the fact that I have been eating prevents me from going into those crashes where I’m alone in a house for weeks with no will to eat.
op, depressed is not the same as being physically disabled. do you understand that? you made an argument that said "i don't like when people use disability as a reason" and then used what you describe as "non-hospitalization-worthy depression" as an example, which is just confusing. as the commenter above described, a lot of people quite literally cannot leave bed- not due to mental health, but because we are so extremely ill that it would put us in danger. if i'm doordashing or getting delivery it's because i physically can't get out of bed. i have a very severe autoimmune disorder that makes me violently ill and faint in natural sunlight, as well as a degenerative muscle disease that makes it extremely difficult when paired with light sensitivity to even go out to a car without collapsing. in no world could i walk to go get food, or god forbid drive when i'm at risk of passing out for every second i'm outside. i have to rely on someone else to get through my day to day (i don't have access to a wheelchair or other mobility aids) and the rare occasion i have to have doordash etc, it's because i really, truly cannot do anything else. the original comment just feels hateful towards disabled people for the sake of it.

12:08 I just spent like 3 weeks alone (Family is out taking care of other family issues, I'm at home taking care of the cats) and I had like, 30 sandwiches in that time and 3 huge pots of chili as well as a handful of other things.
If you want "One sandwich" what you do is get 1 loaf of bread, go to the deli counter, and ask for 2/4 slices of meat, or meats if you want to be fancy, and 1/2 slices of cheese, or cheeses if you're feeling particularly creamy. Then with your extra bread just leave it out and then bake it, now you have croutons. Or better yet, people can get over it and just get 2 different meats, some tuna and some chicken in a can, and just have 5 different sandwiches during the week, all literally just "Pull out and assemble" and now you've got 2 weeks of lunches solved. Buy some chips to pair with it or some microwave steam vegetables if you're feeling healthy.
People don't know things like deli sections exist in most chains and think you have to buy the like tiny expensive Hillshire Farm pack, and most people working the deli counter will be happy to accommodate and give recommendations.
A lot of people also don't understand leftovers (Or worse, have conditioned themselves to never want leftovers) and will see cooking a meal for more than 1 as a waste instead of seeing it as something to have the next day, or pop in the freezer and heat up whenever in the next 2 months. I made a quite good chili, and it became like, 7 meals, as chili dogs, chili fries, and some put away. I had effectively a week of dinners/lunches and then I ended up with enough in the freezer it can be lunch in like a month, probably 3 lunches. Literal microwave meals that take like 3 minutes to pull out, heat up, it takes longer air frying the hot dog than it takes to get the chili warm again.
We're in a "One and Done" society, eat once, disregard the rest, use once, throw it out, etc, and that makes no economic sense and no time sense, we're not made to only make "One" thing, you cook like 12 meals to either split or have multiple times yourself.

@@ryanrichardson5844 You're correct, meant "around these two numbers" not fractions.
My spouse's capacity for tolerating low food novelty is pretty close to "can reheat the same meal one time, if it was very good."

I got my first post-college job in September 2021 making over 2x the money I ever made at the highest paying job I held before then. I fell into the trap of door dashing my food and hardly ever cooking. I spent almost $10K on DoorDash over 6 months and was wondering why I wasn’t able to save a substantial portion of my money.
I finally woke up and in the past 2 years since, I’ve spent almost 10K on groceries. Literally 4x the value and I’m eating Ribeye steak and potatoes like 2-3 times per week. Anyone who justifies door dash has no shame or self awareness. Even when I was doing it every day, I was so shameful of it
I really was not trying to come off as bragging about the money or the steak, I was just trying to convey how much of my newly available income was being siphoned off without me realizing the gravity of it. And also just conveying that you have a healthy, delicious meal for less than half of door dashed chicken wings. I can buy a 4 pack of Ribeyes or New York Strips for the cost of one door dash order from BWW
And if you are lazy, like me, you can just buy potatoes, eggs, and multivitamins. Been eating nothing but that for like 18 months and I'm fine. People are spoiled.

I feel the way about Computers (including smart devices) as I do about NL's doordash take tbh. A lot of people just have it in their heads that anything even slightly below the surface is some Computer Hobbyist-tier skill that's completely irrelevant to them, even stuff like knowing what a "file" is. Even a *slight* amount of effort, the stuff my 80-year-old tech-illiterate uncle can do, will greatly expand what you can do with your computer. Somehow we've gotten to the point where a lot of people who consider themselves "techie" see their devices as conduits for platforms instead of tools they have agency over.
It's not that I expect everyone to be an expert or an enthusiast, it's that I see people needlessly making things hard on themselves because they've been convinced that it's basically magic and they need to be of some sorta Techie Caste to know how to sideload an app for work or whatever.
This. A thousand times this. People basically let tech companies bully them around and are convinced they can't do anything about it. Like, just watch a UA-cam tutorial bros.
You should expect everyone to be an expert on the devices that they use every day and that their everyday existence depends upon. There are very few activities in modern life that do not revolve around a computer operating as intended.
If you don't know how to use a computer competently, or operate and do basic maintenance on a motor vehicle, you have problems. At least know how to locate the information on how to do it if you aren't practiced in it.
@@soasertsusthe problem is that tech is made to be for everyone instead of anyone. there's no incentive to learn unless you're invested into deeper technology because the functionality is provided free of knowledge.

Yeah I was pretty surprised at that too. I don’t have kids but I babysit and it’s so great to be able to play with them, use your imagination, and just have fun. Being a kid is such a short period of your life, that it’s nice to indulge in that kind of thing as an adult
You also can read books with your kids too lmao
The “DoorDash keeps disabled people alive” arguers really think DD has existed for decades and isn’t a fucking modern luxury
I mean, to be fair, disabled people rely on plenty of very modern services and pieces of technology to get by when for other people said things might merely be a luxury. And before a lot of those services/conveniences, lots of disabled people would have to do things like skip meals or go without basic needs or miss work. Maybe it's not like that for doordash, maybe there is some obvious alternative that offers the same level of accessibility and isn't wildly expensive. But I don't actually know what it's like to have mobility issues that make going to the store an ordeal, so I don't feel super comfortable assuming that what is unnecessary for me is also unnecessary for others.
@@mooncrime4998 Twitter users are not in the business of putting themselves in someone else's shoes and would rather get cheap dunks lmao. They see a few people get way too defensive about having an expensive takeout habit, and then disabled people who might actually get some real value and convenience out of grocery delivery eventually get roped into the discourse and that makes for a lot more fodder just due to general ableism online.
@@mooncrime4998 It would mostly be family members taking care of disabled people before stuff like Uber, DD, and working remotely became an option. Modern services free up those family members to no longer be as burdened by their role as caretaker.
@@mooncrime4998delivering groceries once a week is way less expensive than delivering doordash everyday
As a disabled person, I feel compelled to say that there are 100% times I wouldn't have eaten and could have potentially died if not for door dash. Cooking is a physical and fire hazard for me as I pass out when exposed to heat. And some days i can't even stand upright long enough to get anything ready to eat. When I don't eat I get migraines, which make my blood pressure spike to scary numbers, which is a stroke risk. It's not often, but if I'm alone when that happens it's terrible, and Doordash is a solution.
In regards to the discussion @12:00
Grocery stores straight up DO offer individuals. If you go the fresh deli counter, you can request like 2 slices of each ingredient and then go to the bakery and pick up a bollio roll. The mayo and mustard is usually complimentary, so you can make a sandwich of dirt cheap.
I used to do that at a SaveMart for like $1-2 per day on my lunch break.
The way I see the doordash discourse is simply: as long as you are aware of the cost, spend your money however you like. Delivery isn't for me personally, but if you want to do it everyday thats fine, its not my money you're spending.
10 self-flagellations per prior week's doordash orders on the first day of each new week
The single sandwich thing is so funny, especially where I live where lots of grocery stores just sell a pre made sandwich
I work six days a week and door dash my dinner on the one day off. Its just me being lazy theres nothing else to it. I just want my one lazy day
The aggravating part is that these are the same people who are like "this is the worst recession ever food is so expensive" THEN STOP USING A MIDDLEMAN THAT DOUBLES THE PRICE OF THE FOOD JESUS CHRIST
I mean. You still have to go to a supermarket and man, its so fucked here. Still much cheaper than ordering food. But sometimes its close. Like i spent $28 (plus like 45 minutes getting ingredients and 1 hour in the kitchen) buying ingredients to make 3 burgers (no leftovers). I can get 2 decent quality burgers for that price from a few places. Its so frustrating. Food sucks.
@@Me-ui1zy can you itemize that? $28 to make 3 burgers where i live would be a big skill issue

Is it possible to be a lazy fuck and order breakfast without pathologizing it? I have anxiety but that’s not why I ordered breakfast, I don’t want to go anywhere.
yeah u just have to say ur a lazy fuck willing to spend it money on overpriced food. I'm mentally ill AF but it has nothing to do w/ me being a lazy bitch wanting McDonald's straight to my door lol
I mean the answer is no because pathologization is a part of the overall conquest of "rationalism." Everything must have a reason beyond your control. The most important thing now is to take away your agency.
When people tell you you have ADHD, depression, autism, etc. these are mostly unhelpful terms that exist to put you in a box and make it hard to get out. The view is that people broadly are "maladaptive" and consequently neither have nor deserve freedom, but instead subjugation to an academic-finance duopoly composed of doctors, therapists, CEOs etc. looking to make a quick back and also in turn destroy your actual existence.
Now that said, knowing I was suicidal and going to the therapist made me not suicidal, but also the important thing to most people was that I was suicidal at all. I couldn't be allowed to be suicidal, you aren't allowed to be outside the purview of authority, and that's what pathology is.
I think unless you're complaining about prices of food "these days" based on having door to door delivery service nobody is going to complain about whatever you're doing

I have a very unique and privileged situation where I'm 30 and retired. I doordash about 20hrs a week to get out and do something. I would NEVER use doordash to order food becuse of the cost ( and I love driving my cars but I digress) and can't imagine anyone making any type of livable wage doing doordash as an actual job.
ive doordashed between jobs before it definitely does feels barely worth the trouble at times. from what i hear good regular dashers get tossed the orders from the premium tippers, but until you build that rapport with doordash you gotta accept all the complete dog orders that aren't even worth the gas and just eat the loss for your doordash overlord.
12:24 holy, that POV called me out harder than anything I've ever experienced online 😂😂😂
I worked at an Amazon facility, and the amount of people making $15/hr ordering DD and UE was genuinely heart breaking. Single moms working, spending $25 on McDonalds ALMOST DAILY.
sounds like working minimum wage makes them too tired to buy and prepare food for their kids while also doing everything else that needs doing
@@Ozone946more like they’re in those jobs because they are too dumb to get a better job or manage money
All these stories make me inclined to be believe that all of this is DDs fault rather than the individual consumers. DD found an exploit, got people addicted when it was artificially cheap, then slowly raised the price as investors money ran out. It sucks how much learned helplessness there is nowadays, but that’s all by design. Learned helplessness helps corporate profits rates
@@soymilkman at what point do individuals have to accept responsibility for their actions? Nobody tricked them into DD or UE, they know what the prices are and choose to pay them.

like the whole "igredients come in too big portions" is just bullshit, unless you're super frugal the pack of ham you get in the grocery store does maybe 4 or 5 sandwhiches its not a crazy amount, and if youre single just put the bread in the fridge, itll genuinley add like a week to how long it stays fresh, loaves of bread aren't as big as you think and worst comes to wost that shit cheap af, you can in fact just throw it out
You can also use the bread for pb&j or to dip in soup. Or just toast it
As someone who lives alone and orders delivery too much (my only defense: I do not have a car) I feel intensely called out, but it’s mostly fair. It really is past time to start getting groceries more regularly and cooking for myself more.
At least you recognize it which is leagues better than a lot of people that order too much DoorDash
If you can afford it and are okay with spending x amount more on food then who cares? I'd honestly do the same because I'd rather spend the 20 minutes to an hour doing literally anything else. I can't justify the price so catch my ass eating a lot of soup and the occasional frozen pizza.
here's a tip: Groceries delivery. Yeah sure it cost me an extra 10$ on the 400$ I spent each month on groceries but at least I can comfortably sit at home and take my time picking everything I want. I had a time where I didn't do any groceries for about 3 years living off uber eats and local pizza chains, I probably spent double if not triple what I'm spending right now for basically the same effort.
@@bobbobby5200Oh yeah, I’ve done that too and it definitely helps make it easier to just get it done.

I am a door dasher and will never buy it myself, if I’m feeling lazy at the bare minimum I’m still going to just pick up premade food but paying for the delivery and DoorDash up charging every item is just not worth it to me. Also lived alone for 4-5 years from 19-24 and meal prepping or even just taking a day to cut meat and veggies to freeze will save you so much time for later meals. Dishwashers are scientifically proven to be more effective and efficient than hand washing so the cleaning part is obsolete, I know this and still take the extra time to do my dishes by hand cause stubborn but I’m still doing my dishes
Food delivery services are good for those who need it, injured/handicapped people, car broke down, drunk/on drugs, etc but for regular use it’s just wasteful
If your depression is so bad you can't go to the grocery store and pick up frozen meals, go to the self-checkout so you don't have to interact with anybody, and then throw it in the microwave for 4 minutes. You don't need to be inventing a new system to microwave frozen meals, you need to seek desperate help to deal with your depression. It should be a wakeup call for you that you can't even microwave a frozen meal because of your depression and start actually doing something to help your situation.
Yeah, I don't see how "Door Dash is great! It's enabling my crippling depression that doesn't let me get out of my house!" is a good argument
@@Alo-is-io I strongly agree. This is coming from someone with clinical depression; getting out of the house and cooking my own meals was one of the breakout points to getting healthier. Not only mentally healthier, but physically too. I was eating healthier, feeling better, losing weight, and spending time doing something that gave me a sense of accomplishment when I cooked some bussin meals. "DoorDash keeps me in my cycle" is a terrible argument.
that’s a really good point. instant pots are great for when you’re depressed, because you can throw a bunch of stuff in a pot and it cooks itself. there’s this one meal i make that takes like 15 minutes and it’s way better than anything i could get off doordash. im gonna cook it tonight. you inspired me. (i havent cooked in a bit due to depression). thank you.
Okay but in North America this tracks. Just because it's largely a secondary industry doesn't make mental healthcare not a nightmare.

Anecdote from a former Dasher: this one time I was sent to deliver someone's order from a burger place. The order? One ramekin of ranch dressing. I roll up to the house to find another driver delivering for the same person from the same location, just an actual delivery order.
So what happened, as far as I can tell, is they have dash pass to avoid the regular delivery fee, they ordered and paid the 2 dollar bribe to doordash (1.99 for priority delivery, it just means this delivery isn't bundled with anyone else's and the driver doesn't see a cent of it in my experience). Then they realized immediately that they missed their side of ranch, so they make another delivery order for that side, assuming like a reasonable person that it's going to be sent with their other order. But they paid the bribe on the first one so that's going on its own. And I get beaned with the singular side of ranch delivery.
If anything living alone made it EASIER to buy food. Some people relied on caretakers too much in their teens/young adult years and it shows.
Yes, no shit 😂 id be way better at surviving and thriving in a post apocalypse, but that ain't happening.
I occasionally use door dash but no way in hell am I thinking to myself that it's a smart thing to do
You can literally get meat and cheese for a couple sandwiches from a deli. They'll slice the meat and cheese to whatever weight you want. Grocery stores also have half loafs of sandwich bread too now.

It's like, you know when you show someone a show you like and you get vicariously excited when a big plot twist happens when you watch it with them, because even though you know what's coming, the new thing you're excited for is their reaction? It's like that, but for every child, and it's awesome as hell.

The sandwich guy doesn't realize he could literally solve his problem by baking his own bread, buying smaller tomatoes/heads of lettuce, and going to the deli counter for his meat instead of buying the pre-packaged stuff.
The Doordash discourse seems to be composed primarily of people who just don't know how to cook. If you find yourself routinely throwing out extra ingredients you just need to look up recipes. Cooking for just myself is my favorite because I don't have to consider anyone else's flavor preferences and it takes less than 20 minutes for me to cook my meal and that includes cleaning up the kitchen and dishes before I even eat the food.
People that complain about having ingredients to go bad need to take half of it and put it in the freezer
Around 2021-2022 I ordered groceries on uber eats. With the whole €6 subscription thing I paid 99 cents per delivery which made it really cheap. Since I moved ain't no way I'm paying over 5 bucks for that.
food delivery apps are only used in my household when i get emailed 50% off coupons (or better), so generally maybe like 10ish times a year
the occasional buy one get one free order will be done if it makes sense price-wise
Used to get my lunch at work, Kroger, by getting the $1 bologna and cheese and whatever fruit I felt like getting. Then the fruit doubled in price and the sandwiches no longer exist. Now I eat whatever's available in the break room, usually nothing, or I eat, well, nothing. Even with a union I don't make enough to buy lunch five days a week

You can't expect people to have the triple PHDs necessary to predict they will get hungry again.
When people say it's more expensive to cook for one person than two: some chains of grocery stores prepackage food that is *only good because it is fresh* in counts that you'd never be able to eat yourself: eight tomatoes, a gallon of blueberries.
A freah tomato does so much to punch up the taste of jambalaya, but the exchange rate is about one tomato per ten servings of jambalaya. You can make three to six BLTs with another one of the tomatoes, but you're not eating more than two BLTs and three servings of jambalaya in a day or you'll puke. Now you've got six four day old tomatoes, the clock is ticking.
Oh, you buy groceries?
