I've made it 9 months since I quit.

Lotta chicken and rice but I thought I'd take my retirement before I die in the food wars

Bruh, I aim to the water wars. That's starting next year, I believe.

Hmm that's an interesting chicken or egg problem. Which will come first, the food wars or the water wars?

There are ways to purify your own water, as long as the contaminants aren't from something like nuclear, biological or chemical warfare. Subsistence farming is a LOT harder.

Especially with increasing effects of climate change. Unexpected droughts, floods, etc can decimate a subsistence farm very quickly
