Alright, so we've covered the TV Network, the Record Label, The Podcasts, the Video Games, and the Roasting Coffee.
I guess that leaves the bookstore and the toys.

In addition to our cable network, record label, podcasts, and video games...
I roast coffee!
We roast it for ourselves and for businesses around our community.
It's pretty good! Although the beans are getting hard to come by in the midst of ... everything.

@ajroach42 what do you do in your spare time? 😄
@fishidwardrobe watch movies. https://letterboxd.com/ajroach42/
I run a bookstore and cafe in the north GA mountains. We stock all manner of books from all around the planet.

We're a little short on stock right now, post holidays and during slow season, but there's some good stuff up on the website and we'll ship.
If you're ever in or around #ellijay come see us. It's a really neat spot and I'm proud of it.
And then there are the toys!

I make toys! I work with lots of people (like @djsundog and @selfsame and other folks) to design toys and I manufacture them using injection molding in the north GA mountains.
We're using a new kind of plastic to make the toys. It was designed for us by a group out of Atlanta. It's really easy to recycle, is about 25% post consumer recycled itself, and takes paint pretty well (that last bit doesn't sound like much, but it's pretty significant for DIY injection molding. Most of the plastics that are safe to use can't be painted.)
It's also flexible like traditional PVC, but is 100% PVC free. No vinyl, no chlorine.
There's a little more information about PAL here: https://www.mountaintowntoys.com/product/pal-toy-1lb-white/
@ajroach42 I'm halfway around the world but I love following the things you do. Keep it up.
