I'm on a journey to find a regular coffee supplier after the people I bought from packed up business.
There's a company I've bought beans from in the past, they're great but I'll try get cheaper if I can. There's a coffee and nuts place that does coffee beans by weight near me selling beans for half the price of the other place.
I got some Brazilian dark roast, but its way too dark for espresso. If I can find a decent bean at this place I'll be making decent coffee at bargain prices

🎼🎵*Uranium fever has gone and got me down,
Uranium fever is spreading all around,
With a Gieger counter in my hand,
I'm going out to stake me some guv'ment land,
Uranium fever has gone and got me down. 🎶
That's a real song!!
All the songs on the Fallout radio are real! There's so many amazing ones!

Civilisation and Personality are definitely my favs, and I always sing along to Undecided by Ella Fitzgerald. All of them (the radio songs) are just so good!
TV and movie review.
Dark Winds, tv series on SBS.
This is the only fiction series I have ever seen based on Native American people and their lives. There may have been other series.
If just for that this series is worth watching. But it's also really well written, well acted and has a good story. The scenery is beautiful too.

Children of Heaven. 1997, Iran.
I cried the whole way through. This movie depicts the intense inner life of children. They feel everything so deeply. Inspired I think by The Bicycle Thief but this is from the point of view of children.
