Certain beans, too, for me. Mainly the really meaty ones. I like the taste, but once I bite in and that texture hits my tongue, I can’t do it. I have tried so many times.
What’s really weird to me is that I don’t hate bean paste. Like, you offer me a snack with red bean paste? I’m all over it. Not even a second thought.
My first memories are traumatic!
Actually, a number of my childhood memories are the traumatic ones… Fuck.

I feel that last one, so hard.
I had access to extra time and all that for maths, which I have always struggled with learning. I never felt justified in using them, told myself I was just dumb, not trying hard enough to learn.

Hey, good on ya! Getting started can be the hardest part! Don’t worry about it feeling slow, or feeling like you’re not getting far. There’s days where words will flow like water, others where the well feels dry. What matters is that you keep working at it, keep encouraging yourself to go forward.
Don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s easy, especially with personal projects, to let the negativity build up, but we need to be willing to give ourselves a break from it, especially when it’s a skill we might not exercise often!
“Does not get mashed on fermented berries”.
I’ll have you know that when I was lost and low on fuel, I managed to land on an absolute shit hole of a backwater, barely a sentient being in sight, but those berries?
They got me home. Always fly X-Wing. Runs on anything.
Did you use a particular finish on the amaranth, or are you going to let it naturally shift?
It’s all absolutely gorgeous, by the way!
