but whatever, like, this is a chicken blog
ok so in looking back on the period sex post that people are mad about now, i was like “wow, that was a thing i said that was pretty poorly phrased i guess” like, i would never coerce someone to do anything, but i also would hope i would choose partners who are comfortable with my body, (but maybe “freaked out” was a poor choice of words) and also if you don’t think there is like a cultural body-shaming thing going on with period sex then, ???,
BUT ALSO, i remembered that the context of that post was i was joking around with a bunch of boys about having sex with goat’s blood as lube and then i was like “lol or just have period sex” and they WERE ALL INSTANTLY FREAKED OUT. like, that post was in the context of this one.
if any of y’all care maybe later i will post like a more coherent thing about Period Sex Thoughts but also maybe not, i think everyone who just got mad doesn’t actually follow me and probably doesn’t actually care
what, there are a bunch of people getting mad about some pretty poorly phrased post i made about period sex like months ago ???? how did you find that, anyway i’m in an airport in germany about to fly home
Thanks to katydidnot for sending this all the way from Georgia! (More impressed that objects can be sent halfway across the world than by I am by email. Maybe impressed by fibre optic cables though.)
i am pleased that this has successfully reached a destination!
without wifi i read a bunch of instructional zines about herbal remedies and composting (also i read doris too) and i finished wild fermentation and made plans for when i go home (make bread, make mead, ferment apple juice—for apple cider or for vinegar, unsure— bike to the farmer’s market on saturday morning, get enough produce there to can MAYBE, volunteer at ugarden on sunday) i also want to take classes on canning at the botanical garden this summer i think!
i was the slackest boat member, did not tie ropes at any lock or drive boat, but i did cook dinner a couple nights fwiw
i don’t really like this photo of me but it is cool because it is at chateau de haut-barr, a castle built in 1100. to get to this point i had to climb up a billion stairs, and i felt sick so that part was bad, but there were dandelions everywhere and the view was incredible.
CHICKENS! literally dozens of chickens!
nearby where we docked the boat there were two yards connected by a fence with big holes in the fence where chickens went between the two yards. i didn’t get any baby chicken photos but there were a bunch and also adolescent chickens.
i biked here and i saw the chickens then i biked back to get my phone for pictures, then i biked really far away and back and took my sister’s fancy camera and took more pictures. they were all gone when i came back every time but they got interested in someone being around and all slowly approached.
(brown chickens, white chickens, adolescent chickens, small pellet chickens…)
chicken dreamland
at hochfelden my parents went to the market (about a mile away) and i biked really far the whole time they were gone. i came to this point above and i couldn’t figure out what the caution signs were for so i went ahead and went all around the bend. i was really curious what was after it and the answer was a bunch of wildflowers and farms, also pictured.
the best part of the bike ride was the chickens. i took a ton of pictures of them and i’m going to make it a separate post so hold on a second.
have you had tarte flambé yet? (it's an alsacian dish which is basically a crossover between pizza and crepes)
YES, oh man that is what i meant rather than torte. should edit to reflect this
servers are confused that you do not intend to spend literally the whole dinner experience cramming multiple tartes into your gullet: the alsace eating experience
also, shit, look at this. this is the vegetarian option from this restaurant we went to. it was really good. the food in the jar is a spinach thing with crispy onion top, the middle stuff is mushrooms and some kind of egg noodle (maybe potatoey?? unsure) plus a white asparagus and the left stuff has carrots and mushrooms in it and i’m not sure what else. plus there is a pretzel
anyway i don’t remember the names for any of stuff, also i don’t like mushrooms, spinach, or asparagus but this was still delicious which is saying a lot i think.
