I caught a sailcat catfish at night at the beach by hand (no gear). I have also caught some snook, bluegill, blue catfish and bass by hand but it was in a small lake that was drying up and overheating.

I was reading about their grocery bill for the series being over $7 million. American Iron Chef has like 2/3rds of the number of episodes and spent probably only 1/3rd of the grocery bill. The creativity of the Japanese chefs matches that difference.

I used to love watching Iron Chef Sakai. The Americanized shows never reached the grand level of the original show’s Iron Chefs, ingredients, and creativity.

I’m a middle school teacher and Snapchat exists. I am not aware of anything but very possible.

I had a much better experience with Reddit than a lot of people express. Of course that all changed that year and half ago. But my point is that I was deep into a world of intellectualism on Reddit that I have not found since it was wrecked. I have found Lemmy to be an infant version of that.

It is hard to find communities like I had, if there is any activity in my interests at all. I have not found a news feed as quick as the ones I followed on Reddit if any feed at all. Information sourcing and original content almost never happen. The politics are highly tribal and intellectual here. The science barely exists. The hobbies and special interests have little to no activity. I only have the app on my phone to look for a quick read.

Countries will all take back seat to the all mighty profit. Oh and some bullshit about defending the fabled promised land to keep constituents happy.
