unironically, i’m pretty against the idea of space and exploring the cosmos. no need for us to be up there.

Do you have to be Catholic to make good tacos?

A few years ago I read a Sephardic Jewish children’s book, and it led me down the rabbit hole of Sephardic cuisine. I was gratified to find that there is also Mexican Jewish cuisine.

you probably don’t need to be catholic but maybe you need to have stepped into a catholic mass at some point for your cousins first communion or a quinceañera

fascinating, thanks for sharing @Taliesin_Merlin . i’m not surprised (mexico’s current president is jewish, after all), but i am interested in learning more.

one of the cool things about growing older is learning just how nuanced things actually are. what was once simply mexican food to my honkey ass is now broken down to oaxacan, sonoran, mexico city style (probably a real word for this), etc….

I made chorizo y papas tacos last night and they were great

I’m… ethnically catholic? My mum (Mexican/Irish/Russian) was raised Catholic but did not pass that on. She took us to a protestant church

When I put something in the oven and the instructions say to turn the dish midway cooking I almost always never do.

Along similar lines, I almost never pre-heat the oven.

I work in a library. Sometimes I come across materials I find so distasteful that I question whether or not it should be in our collection.

the library director at the library I was at intern at last year, had a policy of letting the staff flag problematic material to get rid off or make only available upon request. She only started that after finding an extremely homophobic book.

The library I work at has a similar policy. Anyone who uses the library is able to flag materials for reconsideration. I’m on the fence about whether to submit stuff myself. Ultimately, the books I was looking at today are simply offensive and distasteful to me, but don’t rise to the level of violating the principles behind things like The Library Bill of Rights
