I haven’t been arrested by Italian food cops yet so I’d say it’s fine. Do whatever you want to food that makes it taste good to you because taste is a very subjective thing.

Imagine not living in 616 though.

No no, you misunderstand. The plants have so many tomatoes that the cages are bending. There are so many tomatoes.

I use resources on weather.gov for most of my personal forecasting. I know there are forecasts on there but I usually only need it for readings like pressure, humidity, and wind speed. Also I don’t own a Doppler radar which is a very useful tool for figuring cloud density and shape. I do want to get a lightning detector though. That sounds neat.

As for your beans, if you got some spare cans and like pickled things, assuming they are green beans you could pickle them and they’re pretty good. I like em that way at least.

Edit: I forgot to mention the accuracy of the forecasts. I have precipitation down pretty good. That’s just pressure, wind direction, and cloud cover/type of cloud. Temperature is effectively magic where I live so it’s hard to pin down. Still haven’t figured out that one yet.

| Weather watching - I’m by no means a meteorologist but I understand a bit of cause and effect for most weather patterns in and out of my area. I mainly use weather.gov for my informational resources and they also have guides on a lot of weather related stuff.

| Lockpicking - I started before lockpicking lawyer popped off but I deeply appreciate him for making fun videos about the subject and bringing it out of obscurity. He definitely is much better than my amateur self and makes it look easy in general. As for starting out, check your state and local laws because in some places possession of the tools is illegal if you don’t have the right licensing, in others intent is critical but possession is not. Don’t break into anything you don’t own is an obvious one. Finally you can get a set of hooks, rakes, and torque wrenches online for $15-30 (prices may vary) and key locks are pretty cheap.

Weather watching (not the extreme kind) - I basically note down the current weather and interpret my own forecast then later see if I’m right.

Lockpicking - it’s basically a tiny little puzzle and I can buy different solutions for a few bucks at any store.

Gardening - this is less obscure/quirky and more that I don’t want people to think that I’m bragging about how many tomatoes I have because I will in fact brag about how many tomatoes I have.

I’ve been playing a sailing simulator lite game called Sailwind. The gist of it is that you get missions to transport cargo to either nearby islands in your archipelago group or to another archipelago far away with your sailboat. It teaches the basics of sailing a purely sail driven boat and astral/solar navigation. Really fun for a chill boat game.

I’m also in that zone of being in the market for things that Samsung sells, but to me, the brand association is with having all of these issues that don’t seem very worth it to me. I just want something affordable and reliable, things that I don’t associate with Samsung.

I’ve gotten back into Guild Wars 2 and I’m enjoying it a lot more than where I left off. The game definitely matured since the end of the first expansion where I was and it seems like it’s in a good way. I like that there’s a lot to continually do and the grind to get to new fun stuff doesn’t seem too high.

Other than that, my take my mind off of stuff game has been Sailwind which is an early access sailboat sim/merchant sim game. It’s pretty cathartic to haul stuff across an open sea from point a to point b.

People probably aren’t enthused about buying an overpriced tv, fridge, washer, or phone that all come with bloatware and adware.

Wait, didn’t the gold check marked brands have to pay exorbitant fees for the checkmark? Is that counting towards the $1000 per month or is that deal being replaced with this new one?
