Definitely depends where you are. Lots of big cities, regions, or states will tend to identify as from those places first. Here in Chicago people generally identify as Chicagoan and you'll see many more Chicago flags than American flags. But that's also in part because our flag is the best flag ever.

And yes, I know the solution would be "cook at home!" But that also wastes a lot of freshwater from dish washing

I don't think this is a good point. Just by living you're going to be using resources of some kind, it's simply unavoidable. I would worry less about trying to consume zero resources and more about particularly harmful things, like single-use plastics. Especially since fresh water is not an issue in some places, like where I am.

Honestly, if you're going to a table service restaurant, it might be even better than eating at home. You're not going to get much plastic waste from single use items like you would with fast food, and because of the scale of the operation I could believe that restaurants are creating less waste per meal than individuals cooking at home. Think of a case of chicken breast versus individually packaged ones and the amount of plastic each uses, for example.

But they're performers, performing is their job.

Going to the UK for 10 days in October, very excited for that.

London, Salisbury/Stonehenge, and Liverpool. 10 days total. I've always been a bit of an Anglophile, a big history nerd, and a huge Beatles fan. I can't wait!

Going to the UK in October, looking forward to it!

Minimalism.

It's everywhere from company logos, to fast food interior design, and now the vexillology community swears by minimalist flag designs.

Take the deal, whoops what's that, state felony charges for interfering with their elections!

Hotter take: pronounce it KILL-o-meters and not kill-AH-meters.

Murphy's Oil Soap for hardwood floors! I know OP asked for homemade, but tbh I don't think you're going to make a good homemade soap. Not very easily anyway.
