    I have a small collection of actual bookmarks from bookstores I've visited around the country.

     

    But I like to leave whatever I use as a bookmark in the book when it goes back on the shelf. Sometimes that's a movie or a concert ticket, a liquor store receipt, a photo, a sticker, or an actual made/printed bookmark.


    Same. If i can snag bookmarks from the stores i’ve visited i do, otherwise it’s been stickers or tickets mostly.

     

    Once used my friends “save the date” for his wedding and completely forgot about it because i got sidetracked from that particular book, haha. Still made it to the wedding though. 

  2. I mean, water filtration isn’t exactly natural. While natural elements are used to make filters, there are synthetic compounds used to break down those elements to be repurposed for the construction of filters to be used in water filtration, etc. etc.

     

    I see this ban as nothing more than probable cronyism, and the lobbying for the preservation of existing industries, with probable conservative and religious ideological undertones. 

     

    I will also take this moment to point to the fact that the root cause of all of the aforementioned issues is profit incentives. Pharmaceutical industries, food industries, tech industries, governments.. Pick your favorite flavor of institution to blame, but the root cause will always be the economic system that champions profits over all. 
     

    (I gon’ done and broked my no politics rule i made on my return, but at least i didn’t do it in the News section!)

  3. 3+ years of no alcohol. I generally say “recreational” alcohol because i’m not as hard line as to say i won’t drink like Kombucha or use vanilla extract because it has alcohol.
     

    May steer away from that bourbon ice cream though, haha.
