Is there more than one Edo Museum? I went to the Edo Toyko museum last October, but I didn't wander around the area much.

Yes! :)

The best-known one is probably the Edo Tokyo Museum in Ryōgoku: https://www.edo-tokyo-museum.or.jp/en/

Then there’s the Fukagawa Edo Museum, which replicates an old shitamachi (eastern Tokyo) neighbourhood and focuses on everyday life: https://old-tokyo.info/fukagawa-edo-museum-replica-old-tokyo-village/

Finally there’s the Edo-Tokyo Open-Air Architectural Museum near Musashi-Koganei Station, which replicates several buildings and focuses on architecture. That’s another must-visit. You can see more posts / photos here. (I’ll reblog a few just after this ... )

May I ask how you planted it? Did you have seeds or from a garlic itself??

I don’t know if you can even get garlic seeds per se -- you just break off a clove, especially one that might have a bit of a green tip to it, husk off the papery stuff, and shove it in the ground! :D 

drgaellon replied to your post “Question as an oldster and fandom lurker, since you are an author and...”

I never comment on how bad I think a fic is; I just backspace out of it. It's the fic that's GOOD except for... That's the fic that I want to offer help. And, yes, Sam, I do backspace out of fics for spelling and grammar errors - but generally multiples of them. When I'm spending more time cringing at the errors than I am enjoying the plot, that's a fic I abandon reading.

I mean, I have zero problem with the backspace! I do it myself all the time. I don’t want anyone to think they have to read every fanfic they open, I’m choosy about what I open and then choosier about what I finish. I think that’s the healthiest way possible to interact with fanfic. (Books these days only get fifty pages to impress me before I throw them aside as well :D)

Is the picture from yesterday? It's still pitch dark 10 minutes from the Wis border.

LOL yes it was from yesterday evening. It was still dark out here, too, but the sprouts had grown significantly -- I just didn’t have a good way to light them.

"good morning?" sam, it's 4 am???

Technically morning! :D

Sarasota Florida would welcome you with open arms and the more profanely terrifying the owl the more we would like it.

It’s going on the shortlist, though I don’t think I could survive a Florida summer...

spadesandaces replied to your post “spadesandaces replied to your photo “gameraboy1: Hoot Hoot Ice Cream...”

The outer cape is my hometown, and I can 100% say it would be noticed immediately. Don’t underestimate the local population and how much they see and how quickly news travels. Maybe you can get a concession permit for one of the ocean beaches? I’d rather got to the owl than an ice cream truck!

See, I think the local people would notice, but would they narc? I WONDER!

Well, the fruit tends to be terrible, so there's that. Even if it's cheap, it difficult to get good ones

Huh, I’m sorry to hear that! I’ll say for sure that eggs are better in Japan, but lucky me, I’ve generally had good produce in the US!

everbright-mourning replied to your audio post “So I discovered that recording a choir arrangement with just your own...”

Sounds like a chorus of sirens, honestly.

That... that is a beautiful compliment. May all my music forever compel sailors to their ultimate demise in eternal suffocating darkness.

*cackles madly*

But no, seriously, I appreciate <3

BUT LIKE. I’M NOT WRONG ABOUT THE CREEPY

everbright-mourning replied to your photo “I can already feel my soul leaving my body in self defense.”

...can you make a short story? 10k there and done? It doesn't look like this HAS to be A Bloody Long Novel.

I try. Oh my god do I try but it never works out that way. Hunger Pangs was meant to be a 10k short story. Hahahahahahaaaa

What do you think Russian herb popcorn would taste like? Or Kazakh popcorn? (For reference I just got some dried dill and I'm not afraid to use it - but I don't know what else to put on besides salt.)

Actual popcorn in Kazakhstan is just sugared.

“Russian Herb” popcorn would be salt, parsley, dill.

Pickle popcorn would be dill, garlic powder and vinegar.

Or just dunk it in mayonnaise because why the fuck not.

(There’s a reason Russian cuisine is not internationally famous and that’s because, for the most part, it’s relentlessly practical. You would be, too, if the growing season was four months long. It doesn’t matter how anything tastes, what matters is surviving the winter.)

(That said smetana and tvorog are both amazing and I would die for them.)
