Kitchen sink would work but then they have dry in time for the next use. And still needs to be done after every use or close to it I saw a study recently because they are used for raw food, reusable bags accumulate bacteria and fungi and so on long before there is visible dirty or odor. They are unsanitary long before they are dirty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My sister free bags it, but it's incredibly unwieldy, and limits the amount of product she can do so with. I mean, mushrooms? That's gross. Grapes? Also nasty. Plus, in Jamaica, they weigh the produce and price it before the checkout, so if you don't pay full attention, they end up trying to sneak everything into a bag with a price on the bag, instead of rolling around in her bag with the price label on just one of the item.

As for washing, it's Jamaica. Hand washing and line drying are still as viable options as machine and machine.

I feel I should wash my bags tool

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Then I think those look great.

askye, I'm so sorry. You did everything you could. I'm glad Will was able to come be with you and that he could take care of the burial.

Not going to think about my bags. Immunity building!

Got everything I needed to get today. I now have jeans that won't fall down.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Query...

What's the nerdiest thing you've done lately?

For myself it's puzzling over how the Hobbit economy works. Clearly there's a class system and Bilbo is some sort of landed gentry and Samwise is a gardener and then...I just don't see how it works. They're supposed to be all of-the-earth and tending and whatlike, so why are there basically Squires? Do they make a shit ton of money by exporting pipeweed? Do they weave or do something craftsy? How does it work?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Do they make a shit ton of money by exporting pipe weed?

Exactly. The Shire is a Narco-State, like just like present-day Mexico.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

For myself it's puzzling over how the Hobbit economy works.

I always wondered why the Bagginses were called "sir". A class system seems to be the antithesis of the whole bucolic we're-simple-people-of-the-earth thing.

Except that the Shire is supposed to be a reflection of the bucolic English country world, and there is a huge class stratification there. They're simple people of the earth, but the people living in the big houses are the rightful lords and masters of those simple people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Verizon charges me a dollar if I don't make a long distance call a month. How is that not cheating? I've been focussed on using Android so I went that long without making one on my TMobile or Verizon services. So the latter one bit me in the ass anyway! Next thing I have to do is break down my T Mobile offerings and scrape off anything I now no longer need.

Which, no, isn't the nerdiest thing I've done all month. Maybe reading this for pleasure, or something of its ilk, and then sending emails to developers who don't follow the guidelines properly--yeah, I've been that person all week.
