@katy-l-wood put this in the tags, "#deciding what to eat for dinner #EVERY NIGHT #what should I cook? #babe what do you want for dinner? #I love food #but when I have to ask that question #I suddenly forget every food I like #and it never ends #personal"
My partner and I have this problem! It doesn't help that neither of us are good enough cooks to decide something on the spur of the moment that we'll both enjoy, so we have to plan a week's worth of dinners before we get groceries.
One thing that helps us is having a spreadsheet of dinner options. It includes where the recipe is, what type of protein it has, and what cooking method it uses. (We should probably add how long it takes, but we haven't gotten around to that.) This lets us look for slow cooker recipes or a way to use up the package of ground beef in the freezer.
This isn't perfect -- we still spend a lot of time staring at the spreadsheet, trying to find something that we're in the mood for and haven't done two of the last three weeks. However, it helps a lot with the "I suddenly forgot every food I like" problem!
My most popular tweet right now is about welcoming intersex, nb, and ace/aro people into pride. Let’s get it going on here, too.

The way the days are blending together right now is not helping me remember to post regularly. I really do have a poem for every day of April, honest!
We left off with the importance of the name you give yourself. La Sirena y el Pescador, by Elisa Chavez, looks at the power taken by those who claim to speak for you, particularly when you cannot speak directly for yourself.
Not all differences in translation are that problematic though. Matsuo Basho's Frog Haiku has many different translations into English because parts of it do not have equivalent words. The various translators use different methods to evoke the tone and "feel" of the original poem.
That leads us to the ultimate in poetry style disputes: Haiku vs. Limericks! (Don't worry, we'll get to sonnets later in the month.)
I’m pretty sure I’m going to fail my saving throw on Minority Monsters again. They’re just so adorable! I already have the hardcover edition, but the softcover is going to have some updated sections. It also helps fund an audiobook version, and I know people who could use that.
If you missed out on the hardcover Minority Monsters, consider backing this Kickstarter to get the softcover edition! How can you resist Queen Ravishment the polyamorous dragon and all the others??

Reblog if you’re polyamorous or support healthy polyamorous relationships!
Also, remember to vote your whole ballot and to vote in non-presidential elections. The Senate is at least as responsible for two of the last three conservative Supreme Court Justices as Trump.
I am begging you to fucking vote. On November 3rd, early, and in all your local elections to come.
I’m not sure I’d want to do that to Mothman.
Are you kidding? I’d let my sister slap me if we could split the $1.5 million! I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t seriously injure me, and we could both do a lot with $750,000.
I'm continuing on with more monster poetry for National Poetry Month. Sometimes you need to drag the terrible voices in your head out so you can really get to know them. my therapist says make friends with your monsters by José Olivarez
