Good options for vegetables or herbs to start from seed in zone 7a? I've only had success with marigolds and thai basil from seed, and I'm working on a more limited budget this year, so I'm trying to do more seeds rather than starter plants. Also considering trying peas this year.

Peas and beans! Great recommendation. Did a little looking and they can grow in five gallon buckets, which should be perfect. Wish I could do more viney plants like melons but my space is extremely tight. I'm going to start my lettuce and carrots earlier this year so they have a chance to do something before it gets real hot out. Temps here are generally pretty nice, though I did lose an entire batch of black swallowtail caterpillars to the heat two years ago. Those little buggers can't take much above 85F.

Reddit enables unhinged people to be awful. I never had anything as bad as your issue happen, but I did have a user who I once disagreed with continue to follow me around and message me for years after that minor disagreement, claiming that I made them suicidal. I eventually got sick of them and blocked them, but it was bizarre. People like that shouldn't have access to social media sites.
