My family attended a Quaker meeting in Frederick, Maryland when I was growing up, and many of its members were closely associated with a food co-op there. We would volunteer to run the register or stock shelves and do other admin jobs. I remember the strange smell of bulk food items like spices and grains mixing together. I remember the "weird" items that were like items you'd get in regular grocery stores, but were weird because instead of chocolate the candy bars were made with carob. I remember that the co-op was a strong component of the identity of the people who worked, volunteered, and shopped there, including the Quakers and my family.

Adapt this recipe to make it vegetarian and in a rice cooker:

Ignore the chicken part (unless you want to make chicken)
In a rice cooker (at least 6c), in this order add:
- Sliced butter (or non-dairy fat)
- Turmeric and cumin
- We also add Aleppo pepper and urfa biber for extra seasoning
- Broth and rice (we use brown), salt and pepper
- I add a can of chick peas
Cook like you would rice (just turn it on)

The Necks - long, deeply improvisational "drone" jazz from Australia, start with "Hanging Gardens"
John Zorn & Masada - klezmer-influenced, razor-sharp virtuosic sax
Miles Davis - later electric period, "On the Corner", "Bitches Brew", also "In a Silent Way" one of my absolute faves
Ellington, Roach, Mingus - "Money Jungle", a one-off, so aging Duke could play around with a post-bop trio
Andrew Hill - Monk-esque pianist/composer, check out "Point of Departure"
John Coltrane - "My Favorite Things", "Giant Steps", and "A Love Supreme", all in the pantheon
Steve Reid - "Nova": hard to find but wicked
Bill Evans - sublime pianist, anything from him
Michael Naura Quartet - vibraphones, "Call": one of my absolute all-time favorite records
Don Cherry - trumpeter, "Brown Rice"

I'm frustrated about keyboards dot text

I've yet to find a keyboard with which I'm really happy. Going back a few years, I started with a generic Model M-like tank of a keyboard, with buckling spring keys. I eventually became unsatisfied with the typing noise (it was distracting to me and my office-mate) and its sheer size. A large part of the footprint of the keyboard was its plastic border, which served no function. It also wasted space with its numeric keypad, which I never used. The problem with keyboard footprint is, while I try to keep my hands on the keyboard as much as possible, when I reach for the mouse or trackpad I don't want to swing my hand and arm too far to the right -- too slow, too much of a context switch, and too painful in the long run. Having to move past a numeric keypad was a pain.

Speaking of pain, I also worried about the position of my hands, so for my next keyboard I bought an ergonomic wireless model by Microsoft. It solved the footprint problem by having the numeric
