Actual serious post: I need everyone who doesn't already know to understand that there is absolutely no such thing as a wipe that's safe to flush. None. They will mess your septic or lateral line right the fuck up.

School lunch pizza

I tried school lunch pizza today for the first time in years!
Y'all, this is not the school lunch pizza of my youth. That pizza held all my hopes and dreams in it.
This pizza was sad and just meh. Pretty much like adulthood.

Like so many independent restaurant owners, we've also navigated the quieter, ongoing pressures that don't make headlines: rising costs of goods, increasing insurance premiums, labor shortages, and the ever-present challenge of recruiting and retaining talented, committed hospitality professionals in an industry that demands so much and rarely slows down. These challenges are real, and they test even the most passionate among us.

At the heart of our kitchens and dining rooms is an immigrant workforce whose contributions are indispensable. These men and women bring skill, care, work ethic, discipline, and pride to their craft, often while carrying uncertainty that no one should have to bear simply for showing up and working hard. Without turning this into a political statement, I want to say plainly: the injustices many of them face are deeply felt here, and their dignity matters. Our restaurants would not exist without them.

Well at least in this country where we allow rage-fueled criminals and abusers of women and girls to have increasingly more unchecked power and wealth we also subject everyone just trying to get to work and school to escalating traffic violence that is not addressed by even most of the "good" pols

I unfortunately was there right at 9 when they opened, and only stayed until about 10:15, so a lot of them weren't out yet. Most of the staff told me after 10 is when I'd see the bulk of them. But seeing the ones I did see was super worth going first thing for!
