Nearly became a PI after bluffing my way into a series of interviews while I lived in Nebraska. I was narrowly beat out by an actual New York PI who subsequently realized he didn't want to live in Nebraska. I wound up working security in TX instead but still faintly regret it just for the cred

I live in Pittsburgh, but I got really worried about New Mexico when I saw that almost a quarter of that state’s population relies on SNAP. So I made a thread linking to some New Mexican food pantries:
I was pretty shocked when I saw this map earlier today. It’s great to donate to your local food bank, but it looks like people in New Mexico will be in the most desperate need when SNAP funds run out November 1. Wherever you live, if you’re looking for a food bank to give to, consider one in NM.
