Both of the responses to this seem to assume that my love of tomatoes comes from Italy or Italian culture. It comes from the American deep south, much closer to where tomatoes actually come from. Adding oil or extra ingredients takes away from the moist, cooling nature of a tomato on a hot summer day. A tomato is bursting with refreshment. All you gotta do is let it out.

East Coast Its isn't any kind of serialized or contiguous, but it is free and great. On the opposite end of the spectrum, here's a free unofficial translation of One Punch Man, which is highly serialized and contiguous.

I'm not a tomato snob. All tomatoes are good tomatoes. A fancy tomato to me is pretty much anything you can't regularly get in any old grocery store. Go into any fancy supermarket or natural grocery store and get any tomato that looks more interesting than your average tomato. I'll get excited about it.

No favorite. All tomatoes are good tomatoes. Raw, sliced, lightly salted, maybe a a little pepper or paprika.

Tbh I'm not really a cheese girl. Give me fancy tomatoes. Fancy tomatoes will hold my attention.

And then he eats your slow old dad with that kid and they sing a little song about it.

I guess piano, because I got a free piano off the streets. I could look up videos and lessons, but I'm kind of self conscious about practicing on a real whole god damn piano in an apartment building with neighbors in every direction. I also just don't like to make a lot of noise. I should price an electronic keyboard I can pair with Bluetooth headphones to practice in perfect silence and privacy sometimes.

Can't replay embarrassing memories from your childhood if most of your childhood is truama fog! jabs head with pointer finger with aggression*

Upwards of 1000mg thc in edibles. Unless I'm on death row in the deep south, they probably can't get gumbo good enough for my last meal >_>

I stab myself once a week for it. It's sort of a ritual.

There is a deep, deep love for Springsteen in Americana and country. Elizabeth Moen does whole Springsteen shows dressed up like him and everything. Anyone who doesn't see the depth in his lyrics isn't looking. And Little Mazarn is probably my favorite band. I prefer their original songs, but awkward banjo girl and Jeff with the singing saw are a religious experience for me.

The beans and rice in many taco bell offerings provide more nutrients than your average fast food burger or deep fried meat. The fiber and vitamins both make you feel better and more full longer. You also get spices and heat, which tend to make people feel full faster and provide some amount of nutrition. And it moves through your body faster, so you're not bloated.

Zero calorie drinks and swap all your meat for beans. I'm not a femboy, but I'm a slim, healthy woman who eats Taco Bell at least once a week. It's the only fast food I eat because it's the only fast food with meaningful seasoning, and I can just go for beans to make it incredibly light. Taco Bell is the only fast food you should be considering when trying to lose weight.

Gonna find out how much crossover there really is between romance languages.

Oh god so many I could ruin this post. Music is my most important processing art, and many of the musicians I listen to are very important to me. So I'll limit myself:

"We took a weekend, drove to Provo.

The snow was white and fluffy.

A weekend in Utah won't fix what's wrong with us

The grey sky was vast and real cryptic above me."

The Mountain Goats ~ The Mess Inside.

Because the work to get better and overcome truama isn't easy or short. I've done a lot of wonderful things with my wife, and we've both come incredibly far from our truamas. But most of the nice things we've done had very little impact on that recovery. To paraphrase a Ray Ramano bit from SNL, you're still gonna be you in Italy.

"I don't fall in love, I plummet." ~Ashley Virginia ~I Don't Fall in Love

"You can't stay everywhere you leave a piece of your heart." ~Little Mazarn ~Vermont

These two go together. I fall in love--with people, places, things, experiences--with abandon. I can be slow to let things in, especially people, because once I do it is quickly a no holds barred environment. It's what the Uhaul key on my necklace means. Because of that, I can't stay everywhere or keep everyone I love. I have to know when and what to let go, when and where to hold on.

Finally I guess I'm gonna wholly belie all notions of brevity with a whole god damn Diane Cluck song:

"Somethin' loosened around my heart

From where it was bound, it fluttered around

This funny motion first mistaken as attack

I realize and step back

With real eyes, I step back

And let it happen

Knitted so snug inside my chest

Iron lungs, ribs as rungs

Those who care to try and climb me

Sometimes say it's hard to find me

Still, in reflex, I would shout

When I began spilling out

Weeping clearly as a blister

"Hey, I'm here, " you almost missed her

And I have so much for you (Na-na-na-na-na-na)

Do you know how I get shy to show you?

I fill up, tender, with a glow (Na-na-na-na-na-na)

Fluff and puff as I try to show you

Display my falling feathers

As they leave me in this weather

The days, they go so quickly

Can't even stop them

Don't even want to"

Diane Cluck ~Heartloose

I usually have to listen to this song twice. It's so short, but so dense. Every bit of it shakes me. I don't have time to enumerate the ways this song applies, appeals, affects, and relates to me. Diane Cluck is so important to me.

You ever heat the Little Mazarn version of that song? Lindsey Verril just breaks me.

I have so many questions for and about bacteria. Can I choose a sort of akashic universal bacterial conscious? I could pick a family or something if I have to be more specific, but I nerd to know about bacteria.

When people and places that should be dirty are clean and kempt. Pirates on the seas should be dirty. Soldiers in the field should be dirty. Cowboys on a cattle drive should be dirty. Swamp cultists should be dirty. I appreciate realistically dirty characters. It distracts me every time when characters are clean and showered with their hair done on day three of being lost in the woods or some shit. It's one of the many things Our Flag Means Death nails. Even Stede gets grimy, because piracy is grimy work.
