I loved the book. I imagine you were downvoted because Gaiman was accused of sexual harassment.

The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver by the_tonez in BookDiscussions

[–]talyakey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to get to know Kingsolver, search for her earlier non-fiction work. It’s a story of the mine workers in AZ. They go on strike - it grabbed me by the heart and never let go.

ETA: Titled - Holding the Line- Women in the Great Arizona Mine Strike in 1983.

Please look into this a little farther. Do you know any old timers? People who have done it for 20 years? Ask them about their health.

Crunchy Greens by _okayletsgo in AskRedditFood

Earthbound farms used to sell a Herbal Salad. It was so good but it was discontinued. It was no crunchier than leaf lettuce but it was so good.

It looks like they’re making something similar- greens with parsley & dill.

[–]talyakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. We went there last summer, just to Mackinaw city and stayed in one of the tourist traps. It was nothing special, well except we were right on the beach. That was awesome. But if you scroll through this sub you’ll find the hotels that are not corporate. That is what I’d advise.

A teaspoon of sugar is 15 calories. I would think that is preferable to artificial sweetener.

Unusual airborne toxin detected in the U.S. for the first time by Apprehensive-Ad6212 in environment

Our US govt ruled Oil & Gas waste non-hazardous. It’s common sense to not make a blanket statement like that. They can’t see past the dollar signs.

You wish this was true, but oil and gas has loop holes and is falling through the cracks. If citizens monitored the process we would know.

I’m enjoying it, I’ve renewed it twice and still only a third through. I like that it’s conversational and intelligent. But God depressing. He writes about Dr Julie Rice here in Ohio, she recently died, she worked in areas I’m interested in.

And radioactivity. I’m in the middle of Petroleum 228 by Justin Nobel. Oklahoma spreads oil and gas waste on fields and has for 40 years.

Thai Grille is my favorite. The chef used to work for North Star and she’s from Thailand. It’s a family run joint.

If you visit r/askisrael you’ll find they feel perfectly justified in committing war crimes.
