  • I didn’t realize San Francisco is the only city in the US. Rent in every single urban area is out of control. A two bedroom apartment that I rented in Lexington, KY from 1996-2011 for $500 a month is now $1,800.

    A studio apartment that I rented in Altoona, PA from 2011- 2013 for $700 a month is now $1200.

    I could keep looking, as I have rented places in 38 states.

    No where that isn’t rural is cheap in the US anymore. Even the most “affordable” cities are boasting about 1 br apartments that are $1,000+ a month.










  • As a chef, not a baker, the fact that you can pull off both says you should at least look into chef’s and bakers schools. Maybe don’t do it as a career, but you clearly have some talent there that would allow you to have a lot of positive feedback from others, and a sense of personal growth and accomplishment by learning how to make food even more efficiently. The main focus of both schools isn’t proper artistic technique, it’s efficient industrial scale processing of foods. That allows for one to breeze through the prep and truly master the artistic techniques that one may want to use.


  • I not only won the genetic lottery in terms of being in the top 99th percentile of humanity for almost all metrics one could use physically or mentally, I have also become a jack of all trades, and a master of a few.

    I did lose the lottery by “picking up” ADD, and ODD upon character creation. That shit hasn’t made anything easy.
