aside from veggie burgers, i'm echoing the top comment: don't sleep on grilled vegetables. peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, corn on the cob, eggplant, etc.
in my experience modern "dumbphones" are still just smartphones with bad hardware.
what actually helped me with phone usage and doomscrolling was completely deleting all mainstream/algorithmic social media, being extremely aggressive about blocking problematic domains with DNS (so it can apply to all my devices, not just my smartphone), rejecting unnecessary apps, limiting notifications to only specific people/times, etc.
tl;dr being mindful and intentional about how you use all technology will have a bigger impact than just replacing your phone with a different one :)
planet earth III's second-to-last episode ("human") is focused solely on humans and our relationship with nature (good and bad), while the final episode ("heroes") is specifically about conservation. more is sprinkled throughout, such as the wuthathi people protecting raine Island in "coasts," so i recommend watching the whole series.
the green planet is by the same team and is just like planet earth III, except it's about plants instead.
there's been many a time i've been out in the middle of nowhere with a friend or family member and google maps stops working on their phone, and i get to pull out OM and save the day :^)
idk if theyll be suitable for your situation, but here's some native ohio fruits im aware of:
definitely seconding the pawpaw trees! the fruit tastes so good and im looking on getting some trees myself
diospyros virginiana (american persimmon)
amelanchier arborea (common serviceberry) and amelanchier canadensis (canadian serviceberry)
prunus virginiana (chokecherry)
prunus pensylvanica (pin cherry) is another native cherry, but probably has the same issues black cherries give you
(the ohio pawpaw festival is coming up this weekend btw! theres always people selling not just pawpaw fruits, but pawpaw trees and other native plants there.)
nausicaä and the valley of the wind.
environmentalism shows up a lot in miyazaki's work, but nausicaä is the most direct about it and aligns with solarpunk in its messaging and themes.
according to this, the groups that protested were not just the air force association and american legion (which both lobby on behalf of veterans), but also individual WWII veterans from around the country.
as the grandchild of a (now deceased) nagasaki survivor, i have heard this rhetoric from not just veterans, but their children and grandchildren as well. in my experience interacting with them (irl, not online), i have never heard a single one criticize the atomic bombs, ever. that's just my experience, though.
so cute!
im a 90s zoomer cusper and we used vhs well into the mid 2000s. its not just millenials or gen x.
probably half our vhs tapes were recordings of tv broadcasts or other tapes. the one i remember most was a recording of rankin-bass rudolph, commercial breaks and all. (and it technically isnt piracy, as the US supreme court determined in 1984 that private home recordings counted as fair use.)
what a coincidence - we grilled out yesterday!

auxio for my offline collection (which i've been slowly building so that i don't have to stream anymore)

i currently use tuta. it has a free tier, offers encryption, is open source, gdpr-compliant, and is 100% powered by green energy.
i have used mailbox in the past, which is paid (cheapest tier is ~€12/yr). i can recommend it as well.
yes! that's awesome and i hope you had fun!
