  • I've seen an article yesterday about the fruit stand seller who sold this banana to him for 50 cents or so, and was shocked to find out how much this art costs.

  • I've been writing postcards and letters to voters. It's a little too late to jump on the postcard wagon but letters can be written until 10/29. It's super easy, you're provided templates, instructions and addresses, you just need paper, envelopes and stamps.

    I wrote a ton of both and it did wonders to distract me and give me something of purpose to do at the same time.

    I'm pretty sure text banking and phone banking is still going on too.

  • I had to have an abdominal ultrasound done once and the tech told me I have a great pancreas, "the most beautiful she's ever seen". I didn't know what to say but it made me happy.

  • If there was an aggregator of sorts that would charge let's say even $25 to watch whatever I'd pay happily. That's what Netflix kinda was before other streaming services started popping up and each asking for a hefty fee.

  • I have recently learned that the new helicopter parent type is the snowplow parent - these are the ones that not only shield their kids from the world, but also fully manage their lives for them. I work for the University of California and seeing how absolutely helpless these kids are is scary.

  • Shaka tea, either ice tea in cans or brew hot from packets.

  • Don't sweat the small stuff. Just let it go.

  • No dress code here apart from some safety stuff like closed toe shoes, so jeans, T-shirt and sweatshirt.

  • If being run over counts as an accident I've had a heavy truck blast past me a foot away from my face because the guy decided that all the other cars that stopped in front of the crossing to let me go were just slow idiots.

  • Lindsay's are good. But not as good as kalamata.

  • Hey you gotta share.

  • I dream every night and it is always some kind of a crazy bizarre acid trip that may morph into a nightmare on occasion if I had a bad day or something is weighing on my mind. I've had this all my life and sometimes when I don't dream (which is extremely rare for me) it feels weird waking up.

    But that's the regular stuff, the insane stuff is that I have dreams that reoccur and evolve for decades, and it's like getting a new season of a show that you watched two years ago, but with new characters and plot lines.

  • Yeah, way too expensive for us as well so we're actually planning on moving to the other side of the bay. We are not renting, thankfully, but we're pretty squeezed and moving elsewhere in Santa Cruz requires paying ridiculous amounts of money I cannot justify.

  • Nope. There used to be some that went extinct millions of years before humans arrived.

    There are porcupines though, but I haven't seen them in the wild yet.

  • Santa Cruz, CA. Hi neighbor!

  • When I moved to USA it blew my mind that there's no hedgehogs here naturally, I was so used to having them around I kinda thought they're everywhere. I miss them. Hedgehogs are cool.

  • I think in more recent times it has to do with using folks as an easy gender neutral address instead of saying you guys etc, and then it spread out everywhere because it is, well, easier and people don't want to think too much.

  • The moment it is gifted it becomes their property, so whenever they have no more use for it. I am giving it away knowing that they may not find it amusing very soon or they break it because kids.
