Poorer Americans work long hours to afford basic necessities. Richer Americans work long hours in pursuit of “the good life” that’s perpetually just beyond their grasp. All of this tedious work is a waste of our precious time and resources.

    Anything grown for vegetable oil which can be used in a modified diesel engine often called greasel.

      Nope; they said fuel for cooking and heating.

      How specifically in a detailed process that a layman can follow do I do that?

          No, no. You misunderstand.

          You said it anything grown for vegetable oil can be used. Walk me through that entire process starting with plating the seeds in the ground and ending with cooking.

            Oh im totally not going to do that. You are aware of what oil comes from what regardless of if you use olive, peanut, canola, sunflower, etc. There is skill in the pressing of anything efficiently but its not rocket science to to it inefficiently. Getting oil from seeds/nuts/plants is not the hard part but im not writing up or even looking up documentation on it for you.

            starting with plating the seeds in the ground and ending with cooking.

            Sounds like you’re pretty aware of the process so let me offer the alternative view you seem to be pushing:

            1. Gently and respectfully lick society’s asshole
            2. Beg society to please give you some way of cooking your food because without the help of current technology and organization you’d be the one who’s cooked.
            3. Ignore the palpable cringe of your ancient ancestors as they look down on you from the unga boonga afterlife
