Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

@leucrotta I did finally find a decent sushi place down here, and the pho scene is just as good as everybody told me it would be. We also found some _really_ good dive-bar barbeque.

@001zlnv @xinjinmeng @JulieSqveakaroo See above -- it's an unusual crossbreed of Parmesan and Cheddar.

@xinjinmeng @JulieSqveakaroo Valid question. :) It's a somewhat odd Parmesan-Cheddar hybrid, not a blend but something with traits of both. It's surprisingly good, very sharp and crumbly, lots of little tyrosine crystals.

@Aradia Strange but good. Boring in places but a nice, relaxed kind of boring. LOTS of eye candy, including both costumes and floats. And there was a fox wedding float! We got pics AND a medallion throw of it! ^____^

@typhlosion Purples and blues, because I'm partly colorblind and they, as the color "blurple," confound me. :)

@Soreth All of them. All fish. Except, due to a bewildering quirk of semantics and hypno-organic translation, the Babelfish.

Wait, what?

@leucrotta You're not cleared for that.

(It's a joke, implying a much more interesting and dangerous life than I've actually had. :> )

@JulieSqveakaroo

1. Trader Joe's "Unexpected Cheddar"
2. extremely sharp Cheddar
3. Manchego
4. very aged Gouda
5. French Munster (i.e. not American Muenster)

Ahh, what the hell. I'm in a good mood and protected by the cover of night. ​

Ask me anything, even the awkward stuff. The only rules are:

1) If it's awkward, I reserve the right to answer in DMs.
2) If it's REALLY awkward, I reserve the right to lie! (I will caption such replies.)
3) Nothing deliberately cruel.
4) I end the queue when I feel like it.
5) PLEASE no inquiries pertaining to the Central Asian steel industry between 1997 & 2001. THIS IS FOR YOUR SAFETY AS WELL AS MINE.

@Leucrotta Hmm, this could work for Cibo Matto, too...

@spacewastrel@yiff.life Oh my god. Best of luck to all of you. *HUG* Do please keep us posted.

@Phorm I had a crew of 3-4 Backyard Friends who I could see through my window when I lived at Transliminal. Sometimes they'd come as close as the tree branch right outside my window and they'd let me watch them for 20-30 minutes. I miss them. They reminded me a lot of me and gave me a lot of comfort in my final days there. I hope they've had good little lives.

Also, I really gotta get back to the Audubon Zoo and take photos of the horde of fat, happy, clean, healthy raccoons they've got there. Peg and I keep joking that we should check with our friend who works there and see if we can donate to a mechanical puzzle fund for 'em. :)

@hummingrain Beeeen there. *hug*

@Phorm And a bunch of people who love you, and a devastating intellect and imagination. And a hug from a filthy trash panda. *HUG*

@JulieSqveakaroo Dang, roo! If I ever need recruits for a skyscraper heist, I know who to call!

@JulieSqveakaroo Oh, that's pretty good. I might wanna get a chorus together in time for Krewe of Rex for that one. :D

ok folks this is all hands memetic emergency

i need something devastatingly cruel to yell at stands of trump-flag waves at a mardi gras parade. kindly avoid stuff that would only feel like a burn to a trump hater. it has be to be concise and it has to BURN

ty all ♥️

@hystericempress lol that describes my ex's old circle of Bellevue libertarian trekkie filker nerds perfectly

@typhlosion Yup! I've shut down a LOT of arguments with right-wingers with that one. :D
