    I have left the first farmer’s market. I got some fermented mango habanero hot sauce, and some of my cashier’s cheesy snack mix. She tried to give me a friend discount, I countered by offering her more than sticker since she’s just getting started. We settled, each of us unhappy, on the actual everyday priced.

    There seem to be three vendor archetypes: ridiculously beautiful young people selling foods, old hippies selling CBD oils and hemp bags, and folk in coveralls bellowing at you to buy their corn or cheese.

    My favorite, at least in the green markets here in NYC, are the ones who drag their young children to the stall to sell their well-sourced beef and pork to the masses.

    The kids are obviously suffering, and the meat is incredible

    How many of these literally flawless looking 20 year olds are employees/doing this for their parents

    It’s hard to believe these young statues are actually making this sauerkraut

    Pretty people happen in rural places also, Chu. Often times it is a lack of exposure to the broader world that keeps them trapped there.

    Cause oh boy, how are you gonna keep them on the farm after they have met Carl Hungus.

    All children are just slave labour in family businesses.

    I suppose, actually, that it is the hot waitress index that should apply, but in reverse - the handsomest/prettiest salespeople (tick all that apply) should go to those industries where +10 charisma adds the most to the price bump

    salespeople in jewellery stores, that kind of thing...?

    certainly I see listings for sales rep jobs at farmer's markets

    The local farmers market seems to attract 2 types of vendors. People who are selling your eggs and veggies and jams and even pastries.

    And then people who are trying to sell bizzaro products. Here is this wild mushroom tincture to use on your dog's fur to make them happy. We took leeks and charred them and ground it up for you to put in your rain gutter to keep bugs out or something.

    So that's been a big thing in delaying when/if we get into the big downtown Nashville farmers market.

    It used to just basically be a food court for the metro employees, but then after the flood in 2010 it rebuilt and started becoming a very cool little local community market and now it's getting more and more non farmers market. There's a distiller set up there now, and a bunch of food trucks and stuff.

    I've got three people who will recommend me if I want to get in, but I dunno if I want to spend $80 a week (which will undoubtedly go WAY up in the next two years) for a booth space in the middle of all that.

    It's the best way to sell your extra veggies though without building a produce stand.

    I've been trying to figure out how to get into mine to sell jams and jelly, because I like to make jelly. It seems the requirements are that goods like this have to be prepared in a commercial kitchen, which I think you can rent? But I haven't really figured out how.

    Also I have suspicions that the other people selling jam are just making it at home and lying on the form. I need to grill one of the people selling jam and ask what they do.

    and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
    but they're listening to every word I say

    I liked a quiet place 2

    It’s not as good as the first one which was to be expected because the first one was almost perfect

    It wasn’t nearly as tight and had some people defaulting to extremely stupid behavior to move the plot forward

    But still very tense sequences and the monsters are scary as hell

    That might be one of the must Kubrick episodes of television ever produced.

    Everything about it was perfect.

    It can’t be watched in a vacuum; you need all the stuff leading up to it to truly accept the insanity of it all and internalize it, but what a piece of art.

    Huh, wild

    I just watched Sand Castle on Netflix, and completed glazed over that Henry Cavill was on it

    Turns out he plays a grizzled special forces dude and honestly I did not at all think or remember who that was until the movie was done and I went wait and had to imdb it
