After a lifetime of searching, I found my personal holy grail of drugstore shampoo / conditioners and then they were discontinued. Why do corporations hate us?

People: “We feel disconnected.”
Suggestion to get small groups together over meals, old school socializing. Everyone’s excited.
Also people: “Oh, we’re vegan.” “I’m mostly gluten-free.” “Keto!”
I’m 1000% in on accommodating allergies but if you EVER “cheat” you shouldn’t dictate group meals.

Nashville, did you know there is a micro food pantry at the Thompson Lane branch of the library (at the intersection with Nolensville?) Leave what you can, take what you need.
