PSA: My client stopped replying after I sent the final work

Look, sometimes the thing just wasn't that important to begin with. The urgency was real in the moment, but that need passed. Calling it a lack of value is wrong, it's more like the situation changed. They got what they needed from it when they needed it, and holding onto that feeling after the fact isn't how people work. The bill feels invisible because the high-stakes problem it solved is already gone.

Unpopular opinion: Over-trimming fat takes the soul out of butchery

Wait, selling untrimmed cuts as a premium option now? That's wild to me, but I guess it makes sense if everyone else is cutting all the flavor away. It's just sad that what used to be normal is now some special, expensive thing. People forgot how to cook with good fat and now they have to pay extra to learn again.

Shoutout to my uncle for showing me how to true a wheel when I was a kid

Ugh, don't get me started! Progress bars gave you a hint something was happening. Now it's just a spinning circle. Zero clue if it's working or broken. It feels like a mean joke on us. They took away our only way to guess the wait. Pretty sure that wheel just laughs while we stare.

Sitting in on a town hall about dive hours left me with more questions than answers

Wait, night dives are needed to fix piers? I never knew that kind of work had to happen in the dark. There has to be a safer way to do those jobs.
