I just had a frozen tamale for lunch. I mean, I nuked it first and put some hot sauce on it. I did not eat it frozen. I am not a total weirdo. It was a pork tamale. I liked it.

I like the ones from Costco. Pretty decent in terms of refrigerated/frozen tamales

Yeah, I got some from the local grocery. Surprisingly good. Crumbly corn meal exterior or whatever it is, with shredded pork inside. I've eaten a lot of legit Mexican food over the years, and for a frozen product, I was all "hey this is pretty dang good". Just saw them walking through frozen foods the other week, and I was "drat, its been a while since I've had a tamale". Not disappointed at all.

Tamales freeze really well. I've had homemade ones from frozen and they're still really good

I spent the last few years talking care of my parents. They both died recently, and I decided to just stay in thier house since it's mine now, while I go thru a lifetime of thier things and do repairs on the house in case I want to sell. I'm alone here. Haven't even seen most of my friends in months.

I eat frozen meals because cooking is too much effort.

Sometimes after a long back breaking day at work, I'll come home to the empty house where I once had a family, and just eat a pizza or burrito or toaster strudel straight from the freezer because I see no point in waiting for it to cook. My main accomplishments most days is turning oxygen into carbon dioxide and food into poo poo, and I can do that just fine regardless of whether it's cooked. I will say the toaster strudel is very good cold. I'll eat a whole box plain and then suck the icing pouches directly into my mouth.

Winter temperatures anyone? I had 7F, -13C this morning.
Thankfully I remembered to load up the wood burning stove last night, and pull in a whole other load of firewood before going to sleep. Got the house all nice and warm again quickly this AM.
Its suppose to be colder tonight.

That is tough, losing family and being isolated. Take care, enjoy some sunshine when you can, and for god's sake use a microwave for even 10 seconds.

drat that sounds rough. Its definitely difficult to break free of the poo poo cycle, especially since its not possible to really be around others. Only thing I can suggest is just to find at least one thing each week that you look forward to doing. I did a few eating challenges over zoom with some of my friends and even though it was really stupid, even that kind of socialization helps a little bit. Hang in there goon.

Bears are a favorite. Don't see them too often, but when I do I get all excited cause they are pretty and neat, and then realize it could probably kill me if it wanted to. Fun stuff.

Seen a couple beautiful coyotes recently, just healthy coats, looking solid.

Also saw two albino turkeys in a flock this last fall. Thought they were geese for a moment.

E: sea turtles too, just doing free diving with my brother. Just followed it as it coasted along. Looks back at us after a bit and pretty much lol'ed at us and shot off like a rocket.
Actually, anything underwater is pretty fascinating.

I work in conservation and am a massive nerd for nature, but someone just asked me what my favourite animal is and I don't have a clue

Like, my favourite animal is my mum's dog but I haven't seen for a year now for play fights on the floor, nor her dog.

I also like Sirocco the Kākāpō, despite him being a sex pest, re: :parrot:

Species wise though, I don't know. Whale sharks are pretty cool I guess? Maybe sunfish?
