[Regarding foods, I am again one of those indecisive asshats who has a favorite dish in most any style/ethnicity/etc. of Food: with 'proper' Mexican I love Enchiladas, Vietnamese its Pho (with shrimp), Thai its Pad-Thai, Italian its a tie between Chicken Parmigiana and Lasagnia, and so on. In its own right I tend to have a go-to for each style that I use as a personal metric for how I'd rate different restaurants.]

[If you want my 'dream' selection of toppings on a Pizza, its Mozzarella, Parmesan, Ricotta, Feta, Pepperoni, Salami, Meatball-and/or-sausage, Bacon Bits, Katamala Olives, Spinach, Grape Tomatoes, Roasted Garlic, Basil, Oregano, and light garnish of Arugula and Balsamic glaze. If you want my 'dream' soup, look below for images from my seafood-medeley-chowder-cooking adventures of the last two days- yes I made an onion saute that I turned into a Roux-approximate that was used as the main thickening agent for the chowder, and yes it IS creamy and delicious beyond belief.]

[Going back to Roleplay Community Topics... again, I have a hard time picking 'favorites'; especially given how long and how much development has happened with Hriob and my blog here over the many, many years now that we've been... well, mostly active. I've had him go on drunken benders with a now-defunct Tengu blog that has had ramifications to this day, I've had him fall in love for the first time and drive himself nearly to self-destruction with the past versions of the blog over at @gingerhoneycakes over how much he cared for his eventual-fiance, I've had him gain students and discover his gargantuan soft spot for children - especially those in need - thanks to running into Yugo and to a lesser extent Laharl over at @heroesxdemons, and I've delved deeper into his early years - and past lives - thanks to discovering past versions of the blog over at @melodiadraconis and creating a collaborative backstory feedback loop of epic proportions that still is tweaked and expanded on to this day with that close friend.]

Tumblr doesn’t like your asks, bird man. Tumblr does not like telling me about them. Anyway, most of my problems are with the fandom but there may be a gripe or two about the series itself.

(Fandom) Stop the incest ships. Just stop it.

(Fandom) Stop with the sexualization of child-coded characters. I don’t care how old they ‘really’ are or how mature they’re depicted in the fanwork.

(Fandom) Get a more even spread of fanwork love rather than lumping 90% of it on EoSD 15 years later.

(Canon) Get a proper localization and distribution team for international markets, even if it’s volunteer, to allow for consistent sales. I realize that kind of ruins the doujin aspect of it but I’d like to see ZUN actually profit off of his non-Japanese audiences.

A mere 17 won’t help find the silk and cotton grove, it is simply too well-hidden.
