"Carter. I will let you in on what isn’t a secret to any housewife who’s bought a cucumber.

It is worthless now because it was worthless before.” - The Mandibles (thank you nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnszynhwden5te0wahhgtn4w3ux7tn0dejszxthwden5te0wdjkuerfwshxummnvekxzun99e3k7mgrcp7e2 L for tirelessly recommending this fascinating, humorous, and highly relevant book).
