"Small pueblo Mexico (and even big city Mexico) can feel lawless and free like 1996 Atlanta" - I was talking to someone yesterday, asserting that the narrative that the U.S. is the "land of the free" falls apart completely after spending a week in Mexico. Mexico could teach the U.S. about freedom 100 times over, and still have enough left over to watch a bunch of eagles fly around with martial music playing in the background.
But this doesn't really get to the point of your article, which is that cookies are expensive. Or at least that is what my tiny brain is taking away. And you are right, cookies are expensive, while instead they should be a human right like water and aguacates para hoy.
As an aside, "just a bank job without the sex appeal of counting money" is a damn fine turn of phrase. Do you mind if I have it tattooed on my right forearm?
Water and Aguacates para hoy are about $2 each so nothing is free really. But the lack of regulating every breath you take is nice. You're on your own if your neighbor is painting cars in front of your living room though (current situation of toxicity) and no enforceable noise ordinance but hey, I've heard Betty Davis Eyes 5 times today from my neighbor's house for no reason.
Also the "Piso" tax from the Mafia is everywhere. In the US they call it the tax man, just someone stopping by for a payment so they don't kill you dampens the fun a wee bit for the cottage industry proprietor. I know you're Pollyanna Lite, but still. lawless means they don't investigate the dog with the machete in his back (this week in Cancun) or your missing daughter. (all the time Jalisco) But I like people not being up my ass all the time. It also means I can't get a decent meal, pizza made in less than 2 hours or a cup of coffee because no one is up anyone's ass. Feel free to tattoo that also. :-)
A lot to unpack here with cookies and freedom sharing the same train car. But yes indeed, we were talking about this the other day about how you can walk down to the sidewalk and sell something from your tree (if you've got a tree that grows stuff people like to eat) [we have mangos] without a big hassle while in the grand old US selling a cigarette without sanction can be fatal. Ask Frank Sinatra next time he sings about New York.
Also (maybe not exactly related but it was in one of the photos), I heard that Perron is pretty good stuff. I bought a bulto of it one day and my doggies said okay. But then again, they're dogs and they just want to chow down.
Lawless and free to get hit by a bus, that's what I say.
Perron is generally the best of the worst. Kibble isn't something I serve to "my dogs" historically but I haven't the choice with so many. HOWEVER despite it being full of cereals and byproducts I've seen worse. Anything made by the MARS company is pedigree is with discard from candy bars! Lordy lordy. And yes you can sell things but just don't do TOO well or the Mafia shall be at your door. I see them visit the beer store...and some of the busier taco places but the key is to look poor and sell tacos three x a week and water 3x a week and tamales the other days. But in reality your grandkids are running weed. you wanna pay now or later? hahahahahaha. Shell game mirage tag. And frankly, good for them.
Really? I can buy weed and pay later. Alright. As for Perron, well, I gave it a try but we're back to Dog Chow. The guys seem to like everything, though. :)
It’s true, the kibble game is mostly cereal. I mostly use the crockpot and everything is hearty soup with kibble in it. I do my best but some months are lean and we skip the fancier bits. But compared to what a lot of these dogs get, as you well know. It’s a smorgasbord

No that’s too much to tattoo. My arms aren’t that long.
