I am a writer, developmental editor, a project manager, a parent, a woodworker, a philosopher, and an avid speedcuber.

What can I say? I wear many hats.
I mean, I finally feel like I'm *alive*, which not gonna lie is kinda bringing me a lot of joy these days...

I suspect the eagles refused on moral ground, out of solidarity with the turkeys.

The thing about Iceland is that this is actually quite plausible.

I appreciate that. I'm at a place to see it as a gift now, but that wasn't always the case. And there will be plenty of others who aren't there yet and might never be. I want to not forget them, and respect what they're going through without making them feel like "oh, now I have to be great too?"

Indonesian beans supposedly have a "smoky, woody" flavor, which would also totally be my jam but I haven't actually found them for sale anywhere.

I keep coming back to this description of Ugandan beans, but at the same time I have 4 quarts of vanilla extract to go through before I can really justify making more so it may be a while... www.olivenation.com/ugandan-vani...

My current fave is Papua New Guinea beans. They seem sweeter, with deeper more complex floral notes. But there's so many kinds out there I haven't gotten to try yet!

This is a good way to put it. I'm not going to write anyone off as an irredeemable human being but as a political matter, the American right is animated by bigotry and misinformation. It just is.
I'd say that you can find good in many people who voted for Trump, but you won't find it in their reasons for voting for Trump or in their ideas about politics.

I know Trump voters who can be kind and generous and loving. If you ask why they voted for Trump they'll give you misinfo and bigotry.
