My gardenia bloomed!!!! It smells the way a gardenia would, gorgeous and elegant. There’s a slight creaminess to it.

We got pods people!

Spaghetti Basilico is a friend of the poor. Boil the spaghetti with plenty of salted water, drain the water, spray it with olive oil, sprinkle it with dried basil, and voila! and it's ready to eat. It's delicious. I can eat as much as I want. I shouldn't have done anything else. Salt and olive oil. Just the taste of flour and olive. The basil flavor leaves a nice aftertaste. I don't need the “UMAMI” flavor (=Artificial seasoning UMAMI). Not basil, but SHISO leaves are also good. Shiso leaves might be tastier. But SHISO leaves are easily damaged. スパゲティ・バジリコ。 たっぷり塩入れたお湯を沸かして、スパゲティを茹でてて、湯をしっかり切って、オリーブ油まぶして、乾燥バジルを「これでもか！」ってほどにかけて、できあがり。 うまい��え。 いくらでも食べられる。 余計なことしちゃいけない。 塩とオリーブ油。 小麦粉とオリーブ油の味だけ。 バジルの香りが後味に残っていいねえ。 「旨味」はいらない。 バジルじゃなくて、大葉も美味い。大葉の方が美味いかもしれない。 でも大葉はすぐ傷むからねえ。 #ズパゲッティ #スパゲッティバジリコ #キャンディ ##貧乏メシ #経堂 #麺スタグラム #spaghetti #spaghettibasilico #poorfood #affordable #affordablefood #basil #oliveoil #homecooking #tokyo #japan (Kiyoudou, Setagaya-ku) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqzOEc4Pegv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🍓 - What's your headspace like, if you have one? Does your headspace have any lore to it?

🍇 - Does your system have varying tastes in music, food, etc? If so, what is everyone's favorites?

Yeah we’ve got a headspace!! It’s like if Howl’s Moving Castle was also a spaceship. It’s junky and chaotic and ever changing, but it’s also super homey and comfortable!! I like it a lot

Yeah we’ve got varying tastes!! There’s too many of us to really go into detail so I’ll just give some notable examples. Indy loves strawberry flavored candy but Char hates it, so whenever Char fronts after them hie always spits it out and tries to wash out the taste haha. I really like ohara shiso candy but Kakezu thinks it tastes like soap. Griffin and Walker like breakcore a lot but Bright dislikes it and always says it’s gonna give him a headache bc he’s an old man even though he’s in his 20s :P

perfume thoughts to think:

-i have a soft beautiful floral, Une Fleur de Cassie. but it's not filling the need, so what is the need? (i think it may be prettiness, easy attractiveness)

-speaking of which, is it time to look once more to Serge Lutens de Profundis?

-what is up w the roses once more

-falling for the Francesca Bianchi hype sight unseen (what is the need?)

-i dont like Zoologist Bat 2020 :(

-i do like Zoologist Moth!

-spend some time with Zooligist Hyrax

-what is up with the fruits once again then. will Carner Barcelona uhhh Super Moon? (typing in the basement cafeteria w no internet) satisfy the fruit need? what abt Francesca Bianchi Tyger Tyger? i worry itll be too like Tom Ford Bitter Peach, which is repulsive, like a cheap scented candle. but Keiko Mecheri Peau de Peche is soft, powdery and romantic, kinda like what i feel attracted to rn - revisit. de Profundis has a touch of fruit abt it as well, wish i could find a bigger decant of it anywhere

-Masque Milano Russian Tea truly is redundant alongside Vierges et Toreros

-what is the appeal of Masque Milano, other than that they make 10mls? do i really need to try their amber (Tango) and their green floral (Romanza)?

-do i need to try any green floral, am i over the hyacinth fantasy? is that a viable avenue to seek prettiness? love the concept of daffodils obviously, but not interested in anything sharp or vegetal other than to like frame and set off a rose

-seeing how de Bachmakov isnt being made anymore, i got excited abt shiso leaf again, but i do not need to be looking at fresh-bitter-aromatics, we have vetiver at home. (maybe Aesop Rozu, however, can be my austere green rose?)

-what is the need? something pretty, probably, and i am doubting Kemi again, do i want my vanilla to be more approachable?

-the vanillas. Kemi, El Born, Vanagloria, SdV, something else? something Francesca Bianchi?

-Civet? florals with civet?

unrelated, a p striking person ive never seen before just walked past me into the main cafetetia hall, and i think im articulating to myself that i have in fact two p distinct types when it comes to bxys*

Researchers in Japan have generated a high-quality genome assembly of Perilla frutescens, a plant most often found in Asia and commonly known in Japan as Aka-Shiso and in Great Britain and the U.S. as Beefsteak Plant for its dark magenta leaves. The high-quality genome assembly will allow scientists to harness the plant’s abundance of potentially useful bioactive chemicals, among which are perillaldehyde and rosmarinic acid. Some of P. frutescens’ bioactive chemicals are thought to have medicinal properties. Rosmarinic acid is already widely in use as a supplement, with claims including anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, antifungal, and antibacterial properties, to name a few. Perillaldehyde has shown similar potential for those uses, and there is some medical evidence to back those up, despite the market for phytochemical supplements still being mostly unregulated.

“Dochira ga Yugamu?” by Shiso-P / Translation

ドチラガ歪ム？ / Dochira ga Yugamu? / Which One's Distorted?

Music, Lyrics, Arrangement: Ponz (Shiso-P) Vocals: KAITO

意地悪な手探りには成功したけど 互いが互いに映るだけでシナプスは笑う

I’ve managed to succeed at our mean-spirited fumbles But my synapses laugh just seeing us reflected in each other

灯台の照らす先ばかりが可愛くて 地面で二足歩行できたかも怪しい

I’m charmed only by the place that the lighthouse illuminates I don’t even know if I’ve managed to walk on the ground with two feet

五感を制した気分でいて 順番に人質にかけちゃって 折角用意した物差しも無駄だし

I’ve been feeling like I mastered all five senses One by one, I've been offering them up as hostages Even the standards I’ve prepared so carefully are useless, you know

最初で最後のボクの手のひらは キミの優しさで壊れて 掠めるたび擬似的背徳 呼吸が負ける

The only palms I’ve got Crumble at the tenderness of yours With every brush of our hands, it feels like mock immorality And my breath surrenders

追い詰めた角で覆い被さって 真偽の程を探る目に 何故か君は口元緩める ドチラガ歪ム？

Chasing you into corners, I loom over you And at the look in my eyes asking for the truth, You crack a smile, for some reason Which one’s distorted?

隠すものも与えられる何かも無くて 凹凸の無い全てにいつしか辟易していく

With nothing to hide and nothing to receive, I continue to get fed up with all that is smooth and even

舞台の幕はもう降りていて 無理矢理こじ開けようとしちゃって パズルを終えたキミが残した真実

The curtain’s already fallen on the stage And we’ve tried to lift it up by force You’ve left behind the truth after finishing the puzzle

最初で最期のボクの指先は キミの強さにへし折れて 撫で合うたび散らばる感覚 歯と歯が軋む

The only fingertips that I’ve got Break under the strength of yours Every time we caress each other, sensations scatter And teeth grate against teeth

最低を滲ますボクを許して 超えない声にウンザリ ボクのキミはすぐ虚像になる ドチラガ歪ム？

Forgive me for showing you my worst I’m fed up of this voice that won’t get through The you belonging to me quickly becomes a false image Which one of us is distorted?

体温は嘘に慣れちゃって ただ流れる液を貪って 焦がれた心はどちらなんだい？ Distortion

With a body temperature used to lies, We’re lapping up the liquid that’s just flowing Whose heart is it that has burned? Distortion

最初で最後のボクの手のひらは キミの優しさで壊れて 掠めるたび擬似的背徳 呼吸が負ける

The only palms that I’ve got Crumble at the tenderness of yours At every brush of our hands, I feel a mock immorality And my breath surrenders

追い詰めた角で覆い被さって 真偽の程を探る目に 何故か君は口元緩める ドチラガ歪ム？

Chasing you into corners, I loom over you And at the look in my eyes asking for the truth, You crack a smile, for some reason Which one’s distorted?

Translator's Notes: This was an incredibly difficult translation because of how vague the lyrics are, both in terms of lyrical content and linguistic structure. There are barely any pronouns in the verses other than the choruses, so my choice of pronouns in the translation could be entirely wrong, for all I know. And as to what these lyrics actually mean...who knows! I doubt Shiso-P is interested in explaining things...because this feels like a song that isn't meant to be explained. It's just a gorgeous song with brilliant instrumentation, fantastic vocals and some mysterious lyrics. And that’s enough for me!

Homemade oil soba noodles with maitake mushrooms and shiso leaves. Almost like a YouTube “ファビオ飯" peperoncino. The noodles were Chinese noodles made of medium-strength flour for Sanuki udon noodles, and I wanted to slurp them up, so I served them in a bowl and ate them with chopsticks. The noodles were not good. 舞茸と大葉の自家製油そば。 殆ど作り方は、「ファビオ飯」のペペロンチーノ。 麺が、讃岐うどん用中力粉の中華麺なんで、啜りたくて、ドンブリに盛って箸で食った。 麺がいまいち。 硬い。 踏んじゃダメだね。 #自家製麺 #油そば #ファビオ飯 #noodles #homemadepasta #homecooking #経堂 #tokyo #japan #麺スタグラム #製麺したい (Kiyoudou, Setagaya-ku) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmhlNGtSp3F/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
