I'm a big fan of a vodka Paloma!

4 parts grapefruit vodka

2 parts soda or a sparkling water.

1 part lime juice

optional - agave or simple syrup to taste.

You can rim the glass with salt and garnish with lime, serve over ice! You can also add various chopped fruits or other juices for a nice visual/taste mixup, like that cranberry.

Universe would die before monkey with keyboard writes Shakespeare, study finds

Maybe the monkey can be a little less of a dick, for science?!

I'm only having the most basic of vodka margaritas, but I'm pretending it's extra haunted.

"Wow, this half developed feature is so interesting, here's a list of improvements that should be made to make it fun!" are 3/4s of the comments on that thread.

'Proud' owner of a 300i, still waiting on that 'Rework' from 2014 2018 ???.

"I mean, it's one plant label, Michael. How much could it cost, $100?"

That's a pretty good question. I 💯 agree that it can fall into authoritarian colonial bullshit, and in fact that's probably what I was thinking of in terms of 'defining' vs 'advancing'. I'll invoke the case of the 'Sad Puppies', a bunch of lame ass white men who were super mad that the Hugos were overwhelmingly going to 'not white men' (read: interesting BIPOC voices everyone loves and gasp......women?!).

I would probably claim the Sad Puppies tried to define culture.

The rest of the attendees advanced it by telling them to fuck right off.

I'm based in the Pacific Northwest, so here's a few of my favorites in the region.

Seattle

Swanson's is the normal recommendation, they are pretty cool. If maybe a little pricey.

RIP City People's.....

Tacoma

Calendula Farm & Earthworks is worth a visit! They have a good selection of native plants.

Portland Ave Nursery. This is in Tacoma! I've bought a few trees from them! It's definitely got a good vibe.

Portland

One Green World is my current mail order choice for bare roots. They are in Portland, OR. I've visited the retail location down there, it's a good way to spend some time!

Snohomish

Flower World is also very neat and very dangerous (for my wallet).

Garden cleanup continues! I'm doing the boring bits of tidying/repairing my cheapo greenhouse from last year. I'll be putting some more onions in the ground just to have greens.

Pumpkins Georg, who lives in spooky bog & disposes of over 15 million pumpkins every day, is an outlier and should not have been counted.

Is defining culture the same as advancing culture?

It sucks, but as someone who hosts their own services and supports business clients: If they have a budget, Office365 all the way. Does it suck paying money to M$? Oh hell yeah. But it's a 'cost of doing business'. Don't screw around if they can afford it, just go O365 :(

kale is a delicious vegetable

babe wake up new vaporwave deep lore dropped

So cute! What's your favorite yarn you've worked with so far?

(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

This particular 'elder god' is more of a mantle, you see. This entity does wield great powers, but is also beholden to a horrible and cursed collection of duties. During the summoning, they accidentally, somehow, kill this elder god; due to the nature of the summoning they must now assume his mantle and fulfill his obligations, with all that entails, lest the cosmos fall. A Satan Clause, if you will.

Cold weather is on the horizon - I'm rapidly building an inside grow zone to move some plants inside as an experiment this year. I'm getting cold frames and what not set up for outside.

Lots of things to chop down and replants, I'll be trying a bunch of cool weather crops this fall since I built so many new garden beds!

I'll be harvesting everything that's still out there. We had a last little burst of warm-ish weather, and the poblanos put on some size, excellent! My everbearing strawberry plants are still going insane though and producing tons of fruit!

My stomach growled when I looked at this...

He's like a moose, the car might not win!
