That’s common in California, too. Watermelon, feta and a little bit of lime juice is a frequent summer salad.

Whats even crazier is the ethnobotanical path to GET those ingredients together.

Tomatoes had to be brought from south america. Bred to grow at lower altitudes. Peasants had to be persuaded to eat them (they were formally animal feed because they were from the nightshade family and peasants didn’t trust the fruit not to be poisonous since the leaves are) and then enough time (100 years) had to pass for them to develop cuisine around them.

Something called a chimichanga in my neck of the woods. You can get one smothered or dry. You can even get one stuffed with fruit and covered with sweet and spicy sauces

Double load in grad school, 2 jobs including a full time job. I left the game open for days and logged 170 hours while playing exactly making one character in 15 minutes.

Yes. My taxes are insanely complicated. I do not have the attention to detail or time to do it myself.

Tax accountant wants 1800 to do it and I’ve had multiple people fuck it up before.

turbo tax wants 150. It takes me less than two hours. It’s only been fucked up once due to an rsu maturing in a different state and clicking us over into a different qualification for dual state income

Also with our income we don’t qualify for free

It has its place as a tax software and since it works I see no reason to spend time looking for a new one

That’s not uncommon or unexpected.

Many decades ago I worked at the sierra natural history museum in california. It on a college campus and it has a Richter scale within the confines of the museum

Classes more or less released for lunch at the same time every day past a certain point due to teachers union agreements. The Richter scale would always register a seismic event just from students migrating from the classrooms to the various food venues and seating areas. We had to make a note on the printout (yes I’m that old)

I mean it depends on the cat

I have a feral who acts like it’s some great coincidence that she lives in the ultimate lap of developed world luxury and humans just happen to be there and no they can’t touch her

I have two kitten brothers who only love because they are fed. If one of us starts being more regular about feeding them then that’s their new best friend

I have an old lady cat who couldn’t care less about food she just wants her belly rubbed and a friend to be with

My husband has his geriatric boy who I’m fairly certain is a small man in a cat suit. He keeps us all on a tight schedule of demands.
