I can scare myself pretty easily just by going to central Canada on Google Maps.

“Honor demands each one be finished”
NOBUNAGA🇯🇵🏯_夏樹蒼依@japan_nobunaga

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving. Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free. I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these." "They just come with the table, man." They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner. This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat. I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared. "Did we…?" "Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless." Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined. My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude." Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man. I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy. Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived. I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most. Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

Monger is a great way to describe someone who sells something specific.

Coastal people aren’t real. What do you mean you have a preferred model of jet ski?

I have a feeling that people on the east coast chew more gum than any other part of the country. And yes that is a knock because why the fuck are you always chewing gum, are you a pre world war child looking for a treat?

2 biggest growths of my life. Going from precut, prepackaged cold cuts to getting them sliced at the deli. Second biggest growth, actually having them change the thickness of the cold cut without me worrying it’s a bother to them.

I hate how badly I want to be able to pull off a poncho. Deep down I know it will never happen but I think about it a lot.

I don’t use a heat pad when growing veggies from seeds. I want the strongest to survive, I want to have faith in my veggies to make it through any weather of the Chicago summer. I’m raising some tough plants over here.
