so imagine you're making ratatouille and you don't like tomatoes. you don't like the taste, the texture, the putting them in water and the peeling them-- ugh! so you say to yourself "lookit, this whole dish is nothing but vegetables, so what does it matter if i leave the tomatoes out?" a seemingly innocuous decision on the surface, but 2 hours or whatever later when you're done cooking, you open the oven to find a complete mess! just a pot full of baked vegetables, none of them congealed or somehow unified. what happened to your beloved ratatouille?! so you take to google and find that the tomatoes are an essential ingredient of ratatouille, as they forma a "sauce" of a certain kind that makes the whole thing work. and so a seemingly innocent decision has destroyed the very foundation of the established order with disturbing ramifications towards the whole. in this essay i will examine how martin luther's 95 theses lead to protestants being more boring than catholics.

Yeah, it kind of sucks not being able to enjoy the stuff I make anymore, but some stuff isn't so bad. Regeneration is pretty neat.

Blood popsicles would be a good idea for the summer, I'll have to remember that. And all blood tastes different, so it's not all bad. Some people are tastier than others and all that.

Designated blood bags - though it's not the same.

It's definitely easier than hunting.

Are you sure? I mean, it can be pretty painful.

Generally that doesn't mean "make yourself a snack for an apex predator".

But I know restraint!
