In the US the majority of eggs purchased by the public are washed and refrigerated at the store. At home they go straight to a refrigerator.

Very necessary because so much spice!<br/><br/>We figured out the fried breaded chicken - which is far better than American fried chicken. Of course we guessed possible lentil soup or sauce. Okra seems to be on left bottom. The other things are a mystery. I believe I discovered in image search that the small round orange thing must be a desert called gulab jalum. No idea anything else.

These people are pulling their children right out of schools for homeschooling. Then there are hundreds of thousands taken out of public schools into charter schools and private schools. The segregation here in Arizona is shocking. <br/><br/>Consider that as an adult I have lived in these states: Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Connecticut, Missouri and Texas. You can imagine my surprise moving to Arizona when I see the most racism and religious intolerance here I’ve ever seen in my life. <br/><br/>I’ve never seen such hatred towards LGBTQ and especially trans, before. Same for stunning intolerance for people who are homeless/unhoused. Classicism is a huge problem here and there is a real disdain for teachers and those who are highly educated in much of the state. I wish very much I could hang on to some pockets of equilibrium and diversity here but I’ve never seen them.

But I never saw hate from people I know and live with like the blind fury hate against people I care about. It feels like “both sides-ism” to make it a simple issue. It was the case for most of my life I could see opposing sides had more in common than not. <br/><br/>But where I’ve lived for 21 years now I have seen only hate from one side, and here it’s the majority side. The hate I describe is not just ideology, politics, religion, racial, etc but truly hate that is actions that are cruel and inhuman. Remember this is a state where the most extreme of the MAGA, white supremicists, white nationalists, Christian Nationalists, ProudBoys, 3percenters,MinuteMan Militias, TurningPointUSA and more are everywhere. The cops here are overwhelmingly white supremacists and everyone knows it. <br/><br/>Arizona is internationally known for hate crimes. Does anyone here not of the majority I’ve listed above ever feel safe? Are there any of us “on this side” that these people acknowledge as having more in common than not with them? Not that I’ve ever experienced here or even heard of. <br/><br/>I doubt you belong to a neighborhood-only group where you are called NextDoor. I spent 1/2 hour reading up on posts there from neighbors. Probably about 200 families is our NextDoor determined “neighborhood”. I rarely go but 3-4 times a year to catch up if someone lost a dog or found one and for me to post things I’m giving away. It was the most bizarre (to me) mix of Republicans and MAGA alternations between tears and prayers for Charlie Kirk, lots of praying, lots of people announcing they are ready to join militias and vigilante groups to defend Christian white folks, and…nothing else. <br/><br/>If I ever see some kind of recognition here that others are even allowed to be left in peace or at least not attacked, maybe I will go back to an ecumenical attitude again. 2025-09-12T17:54:50Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyk7yu90jxcj45pjlwn7g4h9af697zls98v4snl54a9npsmd49k3czyqxah0mw4ketkc9jlug0ma64nk9l09hezv5xjlmxrqx67tu40g7ew74d0uh Wow!

It was the most expansive used bookstore I’ve ever seen and it was laid out with great care and shelves labeled too. We spent about an hour or so exploring and I walked out with My Precious, 4 new old books that are really hard to find let alone priced to buy. It was birthday #74 for me. John had this surprise for me and then we had time left to go to eat or a movie. Chose a movie and drove fast another 20 miles to Tempe. That was part 1 of 3 for my birthday celebrating. ❤️ 2025-08-24T17:38:07Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqdh09k565yrehdry9w6rzk6re2psp7d493ws0yy9r392zf3efasqzyqxah0mw4ketkc9jlug0ma64nk9l09hezv5xjlmxrqx67tu40g7ewtpyet2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv9002d8f0agu7qzm3z54dxx6jg7h8uwty8409rdh6707z7tve6pqfpu2xn'>nevent1q…u2xn</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yes, I like your summary and agree, bery peaceful. 2025-08-21T21:49:39Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2yszkw4tjal9mdu00mcq4nmlfn8j9wdyf50hpky8jsfax44hkufszyqxah0mw4ketkc9jlug0ma64nk9l09hezv5xjlmxrqx67tu40g7ewyudg3v In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfpnhln6r2antqdeclfeve52n3ragqadc3wvphm3xj07ney3s9z5gamnz76'>nevent1q…nz76</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Oh!

I knew the Fediverse was far more appropriate for me and for mutuals who are not placing content within a space that is paywalled or governed by owners. <br/><br/>Sadly, I saw yet again most people really want a popular place that makes it easy to join and doesn’t require much time and effort to socialize. Here, I love love love how I can have my custom-designed timeline I curate. But yes, it does take effort and does need care and feeding. I am now doubting enough good people will actually leave the easy homes of Facebook/Meta/Threads and Bluesky or Instagram.

I’m going to need a lot of coffee to get ready to face this day. Things to do, even though it’s already hot. I think so often of those who work outdoors.

My parents had about 8 meticulous, precious photo albums from their travels, saved before they both died. They are now “gone”/divested/ok—trashed. I have about 3 of my own but maybe a book box-sized cache of my own. I’m old and need to consider if I should keep them, keep some, or trash now. And several were trips with ex’s. Keep the artistic and historic-potential and trash rest? Just keep the most sentimental? What about those that are potential interest to a historian because those places no longer exist?

After all Phoenix is now famous world over for number of deaths during the long summer season. <br/><br/>Random “cooling stations” and handing out bottled water is nowhere enough to help. Emergency services get overwhelmed by ambulance calls and ER’s can’t help people with second and third-degree burns from falls on scorching pavement.

I think the same on this whole battery issue for my phone but almost all information on use of the phone says otherwise. One is the whole idea “it’s good for your battery” to let it run way down before charging”. Another idea I read is “it’s bad to keep your phone on the charger when it’s full because it will end up that the battery won’t last long”. And then “don’t leave a small appliance plugged in when not using” thing.
