I thought I'd use Solarpunk Action Week as an excuse to start reducing our diet's reliance on the top four of the ten staple crops--maize, rice, wheat, potatoes, cassava, soybeans, sweet potatoes, yams, sorghum, and plantain--that humanity is overly reliant upon.

I cooked up some amaranth to go with a lentil-tomato-feta salad and braised collard greens. The little pile of nutty amaranth was viewed initially with skepticism, but the ultimate verdict was two thumbs up.

In the future, I'll try to set aside one or two days a week where we eat amaranth or quinoa instead of rice, wheat, potatoes, or even sweet potatoes as our carb.

Double edged sword of inspiring my upcoming short campaign off in stars and time is that. I have to NOT TALK ABOUT THE GAME. Because that'd kinda spoil. What I'm doing.

Staying quiet abt the thing I'm crazy about. One of the guys noticed my pattern of loosely basing campaigns off games I like. This is the Odile cutscene. We know the one.

In other news I highly recommend doing campaigns where you just grab a handful of your favorite things and throw things you like about them together like a stew. You can make some good stew.

Listen I’m enjoying East of Eden for all the Biblical allusion and its meditation on trauma, grief, and the impact trauma has on communities

But I think Steinbeck’s misogyny and racism is so overwhelming that it’s almost impossible to take his other comments on society seriously

Because if he’s so blind to his own internal prejudice- how much can I possibly trust his judgment on biblical interpretation and the truth of American community consciousness during the 19th-20th century?

Anyway, for commentary on the life in the American West, and the impact war, famine, and diversity had on creating the collective identity of the American people, during the 19th and 20th centuries, seek authors like:

Gertrude Stein, Willa Cather, Edith Warton, Zora Neel Hurston, Rebecca Harding Davis, Alice Walker, Susan Glaspell, Marianne Moore, Sandra Cisneros, Elizabeth Cook-Lynn, Joy Harjo, N. Scott Momaday, Lanston Hughes,

(and SO MANY MORE)

All of these authors deal with the subjects (to various degrees) of class vs individualism, American emergent Identity issues, industrialism, tradition vs modernism, and multiculturalism in the West in ways that are much more nuanced than anything Steinbeck ever wrote.

Some of them wrote with clear Christian overtones- some with indigenous religiosity and recrimination of internalize colonialist attitude existing within pop-christian thought, and some of them are pure modernist empiricists. And I love the diversity of thought extant within these works- much more interesting than painting with broad generalization and assuming all of American history to revolve around the same conceptual points modern evangelist's decree.

We are a nation built on diversity- of people, of thought, and of place. I'll accept no other definition of what it means to be USamerican.

At this point, I'm pretty sure Steinbeck was just projecting his own hatred of women, and processing his divorce, throughout the entirety of East of Eden- like the book gets so close to interesting biblical allusion overlay onto familial interdependent dynamic and mediation on the nature of evil - but then his work devolves into racism and misogyny diminishing the impact of these really interesting themes.

BOOO!

Why do I have to read this. I hate the so-called Literary Canon.

So sick of the fact that I have to read the work of every white American man ever- for the purpose of my degree program's culminative exam- yet many of the women authors, indigenous authors, or multiethnic authors will not be on my exam.

IDK bro- I'm feeling a type of way about it today.

Yooooo the 4.7 livestream was one of their best. Shocking as hell for a non archon quest patch

I fear I did not, in fact, eat that classics exam

Me: [was just complaining to N about how, on Worst Cooks, there's always at least one woman who's head over heels in love with the Professional Guy Chef]

Me: "No one is ever in love with Chef Anne!! Because she's 'mean' 😮‍💨"

Season 15 of Worst Cooks: [has an excitable blonde lady from Ohio who's Chef Anne's "biggest fan" and hopes that her breakfast being good will lead to her "maybe eating breakfast with Chef Anne one day"]

Me: .....alright

Hey let’s share our little personal cooking quirks/tricks! :D

Next time you make rice, try pouring an egg yolk on top of it before eating, add butter, and ground sumac if you have some :) (you can and in fact should go nuts on the butter and sumac. the yolk too in theory but one doesn’t always have too many eggs to spare)

Also I always mix my chocolate spread (like nutella etc) with almond spread, on toast/bread!

I add jam/syrup and pieces of banana in (bircher)muesli (my go-to is carrot jam. you should check it out too if you’ve never heard of it!)

not my dad not liking moral orel season 3 🤭🤭🤭that's so embarrassing for him (<- he's not wrong for feeling that way but i think it's like 60% because he doesn't like it when art gets weird and that's so so tragic for him)
