My grandma is hard of hearing so she prefers written correspondence. I like using my fountain pen to write postcards because there’s something about the tactile feedback of a fountain pen. Like typing on a nice keyboard. Also I can change the color of the inks to match the season, stamps, and whatever.

This is pretty much the best security one can expect for a bike. If you need better or to lock up your bike overnight, check if your town has bike lockers.

Facts and I love their dedication. On year I had ordered some books online and the seller did not do a good job packing them. The box broke open and all of the books fell out so I was left with disappointment and an empty box. Now the postal service could have just given up and said it’s up to the seller to make it right. But a day or 2 later I got a box from USPS and it was most of the books! They had found the invoice in the wreckage and since it had the contents and my address, they gathered up all of the books they could find, properly packed them in a box, and sent them off to me. I was so impressed with the care they put into their jobs, postal workers are the best.

OMG!!! I get to recommend Delicious in Dungeon!!! The show is a bit of a slow burn, but the early episodes set up the incredible world building and the basic plot points. Then as it starts churning it gets crazy. The story is strong enough on it’s own, but it’s animated by Studio Trigger so the anime is pure perfection.

Huh, that explains the 4B movement in S. Korea.

I guess T. Kingfisher’s Saint of Steel series. It may not hit the “fucking brutal” mark but it does cover a lot of dark themes like loss very well for a fantasy, also not afraid to get racy. I enjoy T. Kingfisher as an author so I highly recommend.

I’m terribly sorry for your loss of mental health. Getting the vile shit of the internet directed art you as an adult is awful, can’t imagine how tough it is for a 16y/o.

Ok just being on the west coast doesn’t narrow this topic down at all.

Are you looking for prepared tea, loose leaf, or bubble tea? Depending on which city you are close to there are tons of great local options.

For loose leaf tea in bulk, I usually go to an Asian grocery store. They tend to have pretty affordable loose leaf options that a tasty.

When looking for something specific, I try and find a local tea shop to browse the loose leaf variety.

If you’re in a pinch and need some bagged tea, most grocery stores carry Celestial Seasonings. Their herbal teas rock, my favorite is the peppermint!

I am disappointed in Oregon. I have voted by mail in Colorado and California (not at the same time lol), and both states mailed the I Voted stickers with the ballot.

Have you considered checking out your local Community College?

 

Grocery store had a huge bag of discounted mushrooms so time to experiment. Cooked down the mushrooms and sautéed some onions to go with. The base is garlic olive oil. Cheese is just mozzarella but next time I plan on adding either goat cheese or swiss for a bite.
