    It's a texture thing I think. If I take a bite with mushroom in it, my like animal hind brain just straight up rejects it. Gagging spitting, the whole tottler experience. No conscious thoughts, no tasting, just reflex

    I'm with you. I know it's unpopular but fuck. I know so many people that espouse a green philosophy but won't bat an eyelash at multiple intercontinental flights a year. And especially with the rise of air bnb tourism is just wreaking these places. Where I king, you'd get one travel pass in you twenties and another in your sixties.

    Hold out a little hope. Democrats have both houses and the governor. And uncharacteristically they're actually moving some shit though. We got weed legalization, a huge investment in housing, and some good public transit is in the works.

    Lol, probably an on the way type stop. I never get too far off the interstate driving a rig as I do, but it seems like beautiful country. Might be worth a weekend camping trip.

  • This restaurant is in a clapped out old truck stop off the i80 in PA. The first time I came here I was wondering if I was gonna get food poisoning or the best meal ever. Best meal ever. Such a treat as an over the road trucker to get some food that's not of the soulless chains we all know too well.

    Also I've just started "to sleep in a sea of stars" by Christopher Paolini. Published 2020. As I said I'm not to deep into it, but so far it's an alien encounter story. Starting off as a bit of a downer, but it's still early days. So far so good.

    Yes and no. Like I said I went into this series almost blind as to what it was. I thought I had discovered this whole new generation of literature (litrpg) I could dive into.

    But alas, there are so many absolutey horrible books out there in the litrpg world. Dungeon crawler Carl is really the only one I could recommend. I really hate to poop on anyone's parade who's into it, but that's how I feel. It's still a youngish thing, so I keep an eye on new series. But so far nada.

    Like I said before, the audio book here is the way to go here.

    I've been digging 'Dungeon crawler Carl' Definitely listen to it. I went into it knowing nothing, just based on a reddit comment. Was fantastic. Next book in the series comes out in a few days

    Lol I did. She's a terror when she wants to be. Knocking shit over etc. You'd think I'd be in charge of things seeing as I have 108lbs on her. But here we are...
