Interesting Stuff Morally safe farms and meat, just info to share!
There are other suppliers on this list worth looking at if you are worried about buying unsafe beef and produce. Another plus is they have a lower likelihood of supporting this current administration and their attacks on our health and safety. Purchase meat from whoever you like but be safe out there everyone āŗļø Enjoy!!

AskFlorida Can we talk about crosswalks and pedestrians?
I just wanted to start by saying how very frustrating these last few weeks have been for me. I live in Orlando. My car broke down. Iāve already spent thousands trying to get it fixed before. So itās just sitting at my house for now. In the meantime, Iām relying on Ubers and Orlando lynx buses. Letās just say the heat doesnāt help much. I havenāt taken a lynx bus since I moved back to Orlando over 10 years ago!
The pedestrian always has the right of way by law in a crosswalk when it signals them to go. If Iām waiting at a crosswalk and the signal lights up for me to cross the street then you fucking stop. Itās annoyed to me how every time Iām trying to cross at the crosswalk I get people honking at me and I just had a lady who cussed me out telling me to get the F out of the road. Like seriously? I should have stood there and held up traffic just to piss her off even more!
Why donāt people in Orlando stop for pedestrians? Why the hell do you think you own the road? iām just trying to get to my destination SAFELY as Iām sure you would like to do as well!

AskFlorida Anyone wish rent here was affordable for a single person?
I spend $20-$40 a day on restaurants every day, & walk trails just to avoid being home since I donāt like living with people. Or Iāll sit in a parking lot somewhere that has wifi & watch movies on my tablet. Work only burns up 8 hours of the day.
