…Other than salt and pepper
For me it’s cumin. It’s one of the few spices I buy in bulk and actually use up my supply.
In the winter it may lean towards cardamom thanks to copious amounts of chia.

Good stuff. I usually add some kind of oil or fat to a bowl and add kernels to pop in the microwave or I do it on the stove with a pot. Would love to get an actual popper though. And hell yeah. We know you have good taste in food, but what kind of movies are you partial to?
oh so i had a friend who was a filmmaker in high school, actually got a few films published (I am known in the cinema world by my uncredited forearm that was on one of the scenes, also was behind the camera for half of a short but again uncredited. high school, right?), and we got into Weird Shit. like we had an Ed Wood marathon night (which is the only time we ever stopped a film because it was too bad). If you can tell it’s a labor of love, i’m in no matter the genre. For some silly reason I still haven’t seen Silence of the Lambs so that’s up next. If it has Sam Rockwell, LaKeith Stanfeld, Steve Buscemi, Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Carey Grant, Jennifer Coolidge, Judy Greer, or Audrey Hepburn you don’t have to tell me anything more I’m in. If it has just one shot that looks like great art, i’m in. If it’s so stupid we can MST3K it ourselves, I’m in. I love the medium.
Hell yeah, sounds like a plan. Cool that you got into that btw! I tried coming out with a horror series a while back, but it uh… Led to complications lol
Oh yeah, it definitely hard to: keep on track, keep everyone’s feelings safe, keep everyone alive, and not go broke, all at the same time. If you don’t mind sharing, what complications did you run into? Do you plan on trying again? What was the project going to be and what’d it turn into? are you still in touch with the cast and crew?
The closest thing we ever made as a series, we all got assigned a project to either give a presentation or make a film for chemistry class. Okay all but two of us. So the group got together, and we planned out a series of “educational filmstrips” that would probably vaguely remind you of “Look Around You” if we’d not been trying to push the envelope of propriety and intentionally making it bad: bad camera angles, bad mic placement, bad lighting, the oldest super 8 film we could find, everything to make it seem filmstrippy. We had to show them in class so we couldn’t be too risqué, but we stomped across the line a few times. We aired a few of them privately (the episodes we made just for fun because those members of the group had a different Chem teacher) and those episodes were intentionally more awful. Fun, but awful. Bad enough that when it got to my episode, the finale, the teacher was sick of them, left the classroom while it aired, and gave me a B for completion (I should have gotten less for completely ignoring the rubric and ripping off Dr Strangelove)
I have to say, making something intentionally bad teaches you a lot about how to make something good. Doesn’t mean you’ll absorb it all, but you do pick up a bit. Couldn’t have done any of it without the friend who was director when it came time to do film tho, he was the one who knew what he was doing. The rest of us were just there to have fun and support our bestie.
