Now that we’re allowed to eat on tables or the seating area again, Actionsdowner needs to get on the Rain Forest Cafe for his Broken Chains blog (https://www.brokenchains.blog/ ).

May I take this opportunity to say I fucking HATE the recent Kinja revamp, because there’s no longer any indication of where replies are!

I think George Lucas sealed his ears with wax decades ago so all he can hear is the sound of him own “genius”....

Very true, Frank Walker Barr — I lived in a SRO w/a hall bathroom & a minifridge for the “kitchen” part for several years where the rent was $80/week, then when I got married we moved into a “deluxe efficiency” with its own bathroom and kitchenette for double that rent!
