My dad died while I was in grad school (pancreatic cancer). He was the sole breadwinner for our household - it was a real wakeup call, but I also realize in hindsight that he probably negatively impacted my personal growth. I thought, while he was around, that supporting the family business would be a viable career path, but it was mismanaged and I disagreed with decisions he would make. Instead I have had a successful career in consulting and with large corporations. There was an interim period where I did manage the business, but ended up shuttering it/liquidating. It also resulted in my siblings getting full rides to compete their undergrad. I think in our case, experiencing the bottom fall out motivated us to not miss our shot.
I do miss him, but I can’t help but think it was for the better.
“over the” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 /s
This is funny, I asked my wife this morning “have you ever thought of tasting the cat’s canned wet food?”
We’ve never done a taste test, sad to say.
My brother works at a restaurant where the head chef mentioned that he has tried sea turtle soup. The chef said that it’s a good thing that sea turtle is illegal to consume because the soup and texture of the meat was so perfect that sea turtles would be guaranteed to go extinct otherwise.

I’m GOING to the Olympics this year. Totally stoked to travel to France. It is the only vacation my wife and I are taking this year.
No, I have a subscription to Brandywine - they’re based out of Wilmington, Delaware.
It looks like what happened is that the roasters listed didn’t inform the FDA properly of their roasting processes, which led the FDA to assume that the coffee may be a vector that is conducive to botulism.
No cases were reported because of this, but the recall is out of an abundance of safety.
OC as in stolen from Reddit. Pretty sad.
Hell yeah - this is great news.
Mad love for Qobuz.
It looks like she stopped practicing last year in order to focus on her pro-life political stance. I personally know one physician (my partner worked with them previously) that works at this practice… And they’re not a right-wing nut. Ingrid on the other hand…

Private company in what way? The company is publicly traded - there are rules and regulations that organizations have to abide by. it’s not totally lawless current state … They’re legally beholden to shareholders to maximize value. They can do what they like but probably don’t want them allowing certain folks to have a platform (moderating the platform). Meta uses the grey area to manipulate and addict users, that’s just their business practice to drive value and generate views/engagement with their platform.
Agree this dude is unhinged.
I love chips and salsa - issue being that I’ll house a party sized bag of tortilla chips and a big ol container of salsa in like 2-3 sittings, which I guess is fine… But it feels like that many corn chips ain’t healthy. Main concern is my salt intake.
