Which ones are you in? I like personal finance and am in several on Reddit, but none here.

Eh. I don't love burrito heaven. But I also eat breakfast burritos almost exclusively, so maybe that is it.

It is amazing. They put mango salsa on it.

If you ever come to Anchorage, Alaska. Burrito factory. It's in a gas station, but they have a proper kitchen, and cook to order. Super weird, I know, but i take all my friends there when they come for a visit, and they always ask to go again, the next time they come up.

...it was delicious. I thought I abolished you... No more nonsense, thank you.

Yes! I do not understand children in breweries. It seems like irresponsible parenting to me. Taking your kid with you to a place not meant for them, while you drink, and then getting into your car and driving your kid home after?

Just go have a beer at home ffs, and don't subject me to your kid running around like a... Kid.

You, sir or madam, are an abomination and should be abolished.

Pineapple is only slimy when inappropriately treated. For pizza you need to cut into small chunks, drain over a sink for a minute, and then quick fry in a pan to give a little caramelization. THEN put on pizza and bake. It is magic, paired with Canadian bacon, salty, sweet. Yum

Best breakfast burrito: the Hawaiian. Ham, potatoes, pineapple, eggs, sour cream. In fact, you have inspired me, with your hateful statements this morning, and I'll be putting and order in shortly.

This is it, exactly.

I was at one of the Alaska empty-chair town halls, and it was good to just be around others with similar thoughts. Being surrounded by action, in a place where it is super unusual is uplifting. We arrived on time, and couldn't even get into the event because it was already full.

Each time we get together, more people come, more people talk, and share upcoming events.

I didn't think so. What a dick

'Edwards kept good humor throughout the raucous town hall, telling attendees at the end that he enjoyed hearing the crowd’s “passion” and “patriotism.” In a news conference afterward, Edwards said Trump and Musk were “over the target” in what they set out to accomplish.'

Edited, grabbed the wrong quote

I confirm this anecdote. Just got my booster yesterday, and I know I am not alone.

I live here.

There is no real good place to evacuate to. All of the large population centers will likely be impacted, and most of those places aren't "large" at all. Literally nowhere to go, if we wanted to, except to the lower 48, or Canada.

The distance Alaskan cities are from anywhere else makes evacuation logistically ... Challenging.

The volcano could blow tomorrow, or in 6 months. You cannot realistically evacuate and abandon your entire life for a totally indeterminate amount of time.

We had a similar eruption in 1992. It was fine. Airport was down for a day.

The only real danger is volcanic ash. The volcano is 70ish miles off the coast.

Everyone here is aware. We will all just hunker down. 3-7 days of food in the house, and water. Extra pet food. Schools and businesses will probably shut down for a few days in some towns. No driving, so the ash doesn't get kicked back up. Tape all of our windows to keep ash out, get dog booties, cotton to stuff their ears if you have pets that have to go outside. Swim goggles for pets and people. Respirators or masks do you don't breath it in. Might have to go a few days without electronics.

All in all, everyone I know is just annoyed this will happen in the summer, and we'll be stuck inside. Summer is precious here, losing any of the days suck.

The far, far greater danger is the wildfire season, it's been a very dry winter here. We always have lots of fires in the state, but this year will likely be worse, and with all the "winning" in the government right now, it is unclear what the firefighting response/capabilities will be. THAT could get plenty of people killed, and absolutely devastate out cities and individuals economic stability, which, frankly, is already not stable.
