Adagio is my main go-to, but I also go to Sloane sometimes. I also keep an eye out for small specialty tea shops recommended by friends for specific blends.

I felt this way as well. That top tier of subscription maxes you out, and they give no incentives. I assumed it was because they shrugged and thought, “They can’t level up, so we have them where we want them. Let’s upsell the others instead!”
It doesn’t really do anything other than (potentially) verify someone or an organization really is who they say they are. It probably matters most for well-known folks or orgs that you need to know are real. One example is how confused people are about Mark Hamill, who did move over to Bsky, because there are so many impersonators.
Another example is the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. I can verify they are who they say (and trust their posts, hilarious or not) because they’ve used their gov site to verify their account.

Whimseymimple@beehaw.orgto AskBeehaw@beehaw.org•Are there any good alternatives to Etsy that Beehaw likes?6·11 months agoThey’ll have non-member options for sellers once it’s out of beta, too. Supporter members can also sell (lower buy-in cost), but the Coop commission is higher (not as high as non-member will be).
I’ve purchased several things there, and I’ve loved everything. (I’m not an artisan or crafter, just a buyer of art and craft.)
Oh, wow. I’ve made 1,065 in July alone! My 7-month average (from January 2024 through today) is 811/month.

Whimseymimple@beehaw.orgto Cool Guides@lemmy.ca•A cool guide for old world language family treeEnglish3·1 year agoThis is from an online comic called Stand Still, Stay Silent. Year 0 is the year, well, the year everything changed for the Nordic countries.
It’s a gorgeous story, for any who might be interested!
I’m looking for one that allows handwriting to text, if anyone knows of one.
Whimseymimple@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Google fires 28 workers for protesting $1.2 billion Israel contract10·1 year agoI think you’re talking about “at-will” employment, which allows the employer or employee to terminate employment for no reason at any time. Only Montana doesn’t have that (unfortunately for the rest of us), and employers must show good cause for termination after a set probationary period. “Right-to-work” means that you can’t be required to join a union or pay fair share fees as a requirement of employment. 26 states have this on the books.
I live in a state with both laws, and it sucks as much as you’d imagine… (mainly because it’s fairly indicative of other issues throughout the state).

I recommend Pati Jinich’s recipes for anything she makes. She has both a flour and a corn tortilla recipe.

It ended up being perfectly timed, because I was able to sing the last verse to my favorite person when I got to him (which is about wanting to give each other wedding rings)

I use bamboo poles that are cut to size for my height. They are sturdy and strong, but lightweight, so they may not be exactly what you need for the workout piece. They have an changeable rubber tip on the bottom that I swap when it loses its grip.
