favorite ways of eating potatoes (i want potatoes)

hard to pick a single favorite but my usual go to when i'm cooking potatoes for myself is to cut em into wedges (or just big chunks if the potatoes are small), douse them in olive oil, salt, and whatever herbs or spices i feel like, and then roast them hot in the oven until they're soft and golden. usually takes like 20-30 minutes at 425f flipping them over once or twice, i find. any potato would work but gold potatoes are usually what's in my pantry. although if i can get purple potatoes at the farmers market i use those bc they're fun. it's a dirt simple way to prepare potatoes but they're super good, the tastiness to effort ratio is super high, and you can cook something else on the other half of the sheet pan at the same time too so you get a whole dinner with only one dirty pan

YOU MADE AN OPERA AS VINES VIDEO?? oh i need to watch that. I was just thinking about making a video like that today

I didn't make one, but 9 Opera as Vines videos!! (except YouTube took down two of them for "promoting harmful or dangerous content", and I have been too afraid to reupload them since; I don't remember whether or not that Tosca Vine is in one of the taken-down ones). Here are the ones still standing:

(the video above, I made in collaboration with my dear friend @infinitelytheheartexpands, who also gave me lots of suggestions for opera Vines later on.)

(the video above was initially part of a sort-of collab with another Tumblr user who also made some Opera as Vines videos, which is why it's shorter.)

Enjoy!

Tag Game: 9 People You'd Like to Get to Know Better

thank you, @saints-who-never-existed!

last song:

the sea shanty from billy budd! i've had the opera on my mind a lot of late. can't explain why.

currently watching:

rather than any of the moderately dull youtube videos i watch i will say that i am watching the terror every thursday with two friends. we are watching the final episode tomorrow! (and then doing a mini terror camp!)

three ships:

would it be cheating to say all three possible arrangements of terror's lieutenants? because that's really the only way that i engage with the Shipping Goggles in relation to the terror. also i guess hodgson, fitzjames, and fairholme? that one really did just start as a joke but i think all three of them would have said yes if the other two had been more serious. and, finally, dundy and fitzjames i guess.

favourite colour

purple!

currently consuming

nothing at present. i am going to get an Interesting Sandwich before rehearsal perhaps, though.

first ship

hms pinafore. sorry.

relationship status

in the dry dock

last film

1776, i believe. i'm going through media that turns me into the rat from horrible histories.

currently working on

later parts of it hurts to pray to god, and also learning lines for my upcoming production of hoffmann. we have changed the perfectly serviceable recitative to dialogue, in a move pleasing to everybody except for me.

[shredsandpatches]

@infinitelytheheartexpands sent me this link (in which I am VERY interested what with that guy I like being in it and Hot Faust Summer being eternal) and I think tumblr is gonna spoil it but I was not prepared for what I saw when I clicked on it.

(this is today if any of you have access to Italian tv/radio stations, which I, alas, do not, and am also at work, but I definitely want to see it despite one esoterically hilarious staging decision)
