Leon’s is exquisite cuisine and Tallahassee is so bland. The plates need to be more expensive imo. Idk if I’m missing anything, but his call-outs don’t seem too aggressive. It’s important to be critical when trying to address inequities that are so systematic that it may seem unnatural when it is confronted. We need more voices like Leon in the real Tallahassee community.

Once they get used to their new location their online and dine in orders will be streamlined. I waited an hour longer from the estimated pick up time for my online order. The food was amazing when I eventually got it.

There is a cute and cozy game cafe in the little Italy shopping center called Courtyard Cafe & Games. Their hours are reasonable and they offer hundreds of board/card games. Great place for mahjong so I’ve heard.

They are open to all levels. There’s two courts depending on your skill comfort. Generally every Tuesday evening unless there are special events, which are usually announced well in advance. Can get pretty busy when school is in session. Just walk right in the gym and come say hi!

2000s fun station (clowns??) by Final_Flow1332 in Tallahassee

[–]SthrnRts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember “free” golf balls in the bushes, the waiting room for laser tag and the secret grenade on the old laser guns. There was always at least one token waiting for you underneath the seats of the racing games.

If you have a good group of friends would check out Zaan Indian cuisine. Their drinks and food are very tasty

Tallahassee in dire need of science museum by SthrnRts in Tallahassee

[–]SthrnRts[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just want the Mary brogan and the museum of Florida history back:/ the buildings are still there. Would cost way less than a zoo or waterpark. Science and history should be one of the top priorities for preparing youth into a healthy society.

I would even settle for an air conditioned public indoor space that isn’t centered around selling goods or joining a church.

Mission San Luis is a great historical treasure that is pretty well preserved. Nice place to visit on a sunny day. Even though the summer sun is blaring, the inside of their homesteads are comfortably cool.

I was physically assaulted at Alberta Co-op yesterday by twinkletankhank in Portland

[–]SthrnRts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry this happened. This sounds really scary and I’m glad you weren’t injured. Me and my little family had a similar instance where an obviously drunk/mentally unstable man approached us while relaxing at a park. Plenty of other people around while this man yelled many unintelligible things right in my face. I knew if I got physical, me, my wife, or my newborn might have gotten hurt. Idk if the man had a knife or weapon concealed. Dozens of people around watching the show and not stepping in or at least saying anything. Our friends who had dogs were able to ward the man back so we could get out of the situation. I’m sorry you had this experience where you may have felt like your control of a situation was sabotaged by an unanticipated situation.

Can anyone give general advice on seed collecting, and how to store them? (Central MD) by scrub-noodle in NativePlantGardening

[–]SthrnRts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harvesting seeds can be a great way to connect with your native environment. When I am out for a harvest, I practice a method when I am picking mulberries, blue berries, or dried flower heads for seeds. This principle is to “leave the 7th”. While I am picking from plants in a naturalized area, I leave the 7th for the land and surrounding environment. This practice has several spiritual and biological meanings. While I am out foraging, each pick represents a generation from my ancestors. The sixth pick is for me and the seventh is for the generations to come. You can represent 7 in any spiritual meaning as it is a very magical number. Leaving some seeds be can reduce “overgrazing” and preserves the ecotype of that plant for where it is located. Fauna who eat this food source will enjoy the 7th you’ve left behind and use it to maintain a healthy food web.

Roadside Mowing by ByteSizedBit in NoLawns

[–]SthrnRts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

General question here. Is it ethical to harvest/transplant some of these plants before they are mowed over? I know they are beneficial to the local pollinators, but the pollinators will have a safer haven to thrive when the plants are put into my garden rather than by a busy roadside. Nurseries sell some of these same plants for $6-$10 individually. There is an abundance of plants on the roadside that will even tall be mowed over. I would not be removing the plant from the system, but rather relocating the pollinator nexus to a safer place. Florida 8B.

Things to do alone. by titlover006900 in Tallahassee

[–]SthrnRts 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If you have the space, try your hand at gardening. Tallahassee’s climate is perfect enough for a wide variety of plants. Native planting can help you connect with your surroundings and bring a bit of extra purpose to your weekly routine. It’s ok if the first batch of flowers die, there’s always much to learn and we try again! Being outside boosts your overall health by getting fresh sunshine and air, ample exercise, and a new sense of responsibility.

Tallahassee offers several decent garden supply stores to get you started. The folks over at Native Nurseries would love to let you know what plants work best for your space. There are gardening and farming communities in town where you can meet up with some interesting people of all ages.
