    I’m pretty sure it’s fucking all tapatio lmao. On the better side of store bought, but I live in the tiniest province so availability of basically anything interesting is low and there are like 3 Latin American restaurants I don’t have to take a ferry to another province to visit.

        Cyclable-ness and needing the ocean. Much like a 19th century sick person in a cosmic horror story, I was told the sea air would do me good, and it has. The only weird thing I’ve discovered in the Maritimes has been Newfies, unfortunately.

            I tease out of love, people out here are really friendly. There’s just a tragic lack of Lovecraftian mysteries for me to unravel to give my life meaning and then drive me into all-consuming madness. I was hoping for Azathoth of Green Gables and instead all I got was cheap fish and really good seasonal produce.
