People use "there's no ethical consumption under capitalism" as a catch all excuse for never trying to do good and having no accountability for their actions it's so tiresome

Minneapolis folks: I feel like we are severely lacking in the bakery department. I want someplace that sells fresh bread, I don't care about sweets and pastries. Am I missing somewhere that does this ???

I feel very blessed to have been single throughout my adolescence and early 20s. This is probs just ace spec bias but I love that I've never felt any need to be in a relationship and that I've always been satisfied without one. I am so so glad that I developed my sense of self independently

Can’t see em, but listen! Apparently these are called Banjo Frogs, and they really do make a string-plucking noise! Very eerie in person, so resonant and from various directions!
