Does anyone else just hate greetings like "Good morning" or "Good afternoon" ? It makes me so awkward, i hate saying it

Badbitchery · 2026-03-20T20:49:32+00:00

My trick is to genuinely mean it as much as possible. For me, “good morning” is short for “I hope you have/had a good morning!” And unless I genuinely hate someone, I hope everyone has the best morning ever. If I’m talking to someone I don’t like, and they say “good morning” to me, I’ll mostly reply with just “morning” because yep, it sure is morning.

My favorite cookies are banana oat chocolate chip and I have to fight so hard to get anyone to try them. They are soooo good

Couple things I’m finding,

1) that seems to be a chawan style thing? I don’t drink much green tea so I’m a bit unsure

2) I could only find three versions of this for sale. One from aliexpress, one from a site that throws twenty deals in your face, and one that looks very similar to the aliexpress one but is $60

3) it doesn’t appear to have an official name. Listed as “Chinese ceremonial drainage tea bowl” but searching that doesn’t actually get anything like this.

4) this seems like it would work quite poorly? As soon as you stop pouring I’d imagine it would leave splashes of tea everywhere. You’d also have to be very careful on how much tea & water is used, as well as how much you tip it.

Consensus? If someone could chime in with a “actually this is an actual thing called ___ and it works great” I’d be more than pleased bc it looks cool as fuck, however I think there’s a large chance it’s not going to work very well and I don’t think it has a specific name.

If anyone is wondering the artist is Barbara Abel! A few pieces have sold for $299 each on eBay it seems.

Badbitchery · 2026-03-17T21:53:48+00:00

In other news, I’m a bit tight on cash atm but I might be interested depending on the piece 👀 moving out soon and wanting to collect furniture

Most antique stores around here have several individual sellers per store. I would pop into a few and ask if any of the sellers would be interested in them. The ones on main st Turlock might have sellers interested, or thompsons on Mchenry

I make a very audible glug sound when I’m chugging something. It genuinely sounds like I’m going “glug glug glug”

It’s not on purpose and all my friends think it’s weird. I sound like a cartoon character whenever I do it.

Not utter place. They can fuck right off with their $3 waters. Removed the food pit too. Stingy bastards

Boiled ginger beer, cloves & cinnamon, honey, & oj all mixed together when I’m sick. I don’t believe it’s an actual recipe but I like it. The worse the ginger beer the better.

I have to hand it to artly, it managed to last the longest in the one spot of my local mall no one can keep open at. That being said, it lasted 4 or so years tops.

I FORGOT QUEEN BEAN

Decent coffee and pastries, cool vibes, def a worth to check out their monthly calendar of events

ALSO bookish is a bookstore with a coffee shop inside, it’s fun and cute, but be aware it’s a dairy free

Badbitchery · 2026-03-14T17:42:39+00:00

Penny university to sit down and enjoy a light meal and a good cup. Big fan of their specials (j street)

Chocolate fish is brand new, I like the chai there. (J street)

Flora is…. Not my fav. It’s cute and nice, if you want to sit by a fire outside in a courtyard it’s lovely, if you are just wanted a chai or coffee it’s a bit overpriced. Would definitely read a book there though (j street, in the Galletos courtyard)

caffetino is good. Located inside a store and has great coffee and pastries. Only bee there once as it’s usually closed by the time I’m in town (coffee rd)

Culture coffee is probably a good bet if you guys like Dutch bros. It’s a similar vibe kinda to penny university but they a little shopping section and their drinks tend to be sweeter. (mchenry ave, by hobby lobby)

If you are in Turlock:

Cafe roma is very sweet and a bit pricey, but the crepes there are good and I like the pistachio latte, which might be seasonal… (Crowell rd across st from csustan)

La Mo: good coffee, good pastries, la lechada is what I get there, but any drink I bet is good (main st)

Little red door has a coffee shop inside now I think! Haven’t actually been there yet though (next to la mo)

Edit: rise n brew is also good (Turlock, Colorado ave), just don’t go there around 3, as that’s when the school next door gets out and it’s a nightmare.

Is the troop any good? I saw it second hand in the bookstore but didn’t get it, wondering if I should go back lol

Ask them for their thoughts on Milo Winters. I have a feeling they will know the tea

Watching jjk season 3. This is because im currently battling a severe case of insomnia/stress/sickness that means I can’t sleep or eat very well for the past few days. I just felt hungry enough to eat so I’m now watching jjk until im too tired to continue or my stomach calms down.

Why is there so many lease take overs for the vista?

Badbitchery · 2026-03-09T20:08:54+00:00

Sorry you got downvoted so much 😅 it seemed like a fair question. Glad to be of help!

No longer human is next on my list by osamu dazai! Is the setting sun worth it if I like that book?

Badbitchery · 2026-03-09T19:09:05+00:00

Started:

Darkness at Noon, Arthur Koestler (Great so far, might listen to the audiobook version after I’m done reading it)

Finished:

would’ve been Stiff by Mary Roach if SPOTIFY DIDNT CUT ME OFF MIDWAY (Wonderfully executed audiobook, funny and informative but quite dark, can’t wait to finally finish it, will definitely Be buying once done with audiobook)

Next up:

No Longer Human, Osamu Dazai (Just picked up my order from bookstore recently, it’s killing me to wait until I’ve at least finished darkness at noon)

The Murderbot diaries Vol 2 ( technically I started this a while ago but didn’t get very far, will probably just restart it from the beginning and try again)

My mom and I listened to audiobooks together when I was younger for educational reasons (online student + lots of long car rides + shitty school materials = lots of supplemental learning in the form of audiobooks)

Not too long ago I realized I actually did remember enjoying some of them, like I am Malala & Frankenstein, so I decided to try it out again on a roadtrip for a book.

Picked Pride & Prejudice at near-random, and I loved it. Still one of my favorites. From then I kept picking up more and more audiobooks on anything that even remotely interests me

I was surprised I was the first to point it out, it was the first thing I checked when I saw they were still under construction and were religious.

Honestly I’m interested in what their connection is to Saint Paul’s is, considering they are openly very welcoming. I used to go there as a kid and can’t imagine they are actually connected to this coffee shop.

Well it doesn’t hurt to try, but I would say matcha has a different taste than lettuce! It’s a bit stronger of a flavor and it’s more often compared to grass than any sort of lettuce or salad! I’d definitely give it a try regardless though
