white americans will be like oh british food is so unseasoned and underspiced and then talk as if taco bell is extremely flavourful. this is true I've seen it happen multiple times.

#red said #and yeah i have had American taco bell. it was fine. not exactly heavily seasoned though is it. #a cheeky nandos would fold these people in half like paper. they'd be those people who think medium is a test of will #it's just that when people talk shit about British food they seem not to have noticed #that our stereotypical national eating habits have for the last 50 years involved less jellied eels and more vindaloo #and now there's a lot to critique on that front too #such as the fact that your traditionally White British Dude approaches curry less as a tasty foodstuff and more as a masculinity challenge #so like. famously British Indian takeaways tend to flatten out flavours and focus on heat when catering to British tastes #idk what The Average Brit cooks at home bc it's obviously different family to family. #fryups are a solid reliable. roasts? but i feel like mostly pasta soup and pies? i mostly do curry bc it's cheap to make it taste good.

I think one of the things about media set in the 80s and 90s that doesn't convey to those who didn't experience them is the solitude. The true loneliness of being awake at the wrong hour, or living far from town.

I used to get off work at 9pm. I'd get in my shitty little car (I miss you, Blue Bomber) and drive straight down main street in my city. Everything was closed by then except the gas stations, even the grocery stores. Sometimes I'd stop at the AM/PM for a fountain drink, but mostly not, because I was going to need that $0.79 later in the week for gas. I'd only stop on the nights I felt the loneliest- me and the convenience store clerk were of the same cloth. We were the last people like us we were going to talk to that day. I don’t remember her name. I'd drive for miles, until the strip malls gave out and became fields, and eventually ran through the citrus orchards that used to dot the Mesa area. When the trees were in bloom you could smell them for a good mile before you got there, even over the constant scent of dust and too-hot blacktop.

Some nights I'd park on an access road in the trees and lay my seat back. Windows open, engine off, no music. There were no voices. No cars going by most of the time. Everyone was safe at home with the last hour of prime time tv for company, getting ready for bed. It wasn’t quiet, but it was solitary. It was alone. Nobody knew where I was-- my mom went to bed at 8pm and left for work at 4am. My sister was in high school, out with friends or at home in her room. We didn't have cell phones. My friends lived in California, Florida, Virginia, Vermont. I sent them letters every few weeks, or maybe caught them in an email over the weekend. Sometimes they even replied the same DAY.

I think that's a thing that's hard to explain to someone who has always had the option of connection at the tip of their fingers. Not in a "kids these days don't know the struggle" way. It's more that you can't explain how it felt to be truly alone with yourself. How solitude was an unspoken companion at all times, a cultural touchstone so ubiquitous it never needed to be named explicitly. When you watch older movies, you see it in the quiet character staring out the window. Sitting in their car. They aren't waiting for someone to come to them. They’re acknowledging that they've been shifted out of the normal way of things just enough that the shared experience of doing things at the same time, but always separately, doesn't apply. That was what we had then, because humans crave connection and shared culture. You might be watching tv alone, but everyone in your town was watching tv then. You might be going to bed by yourself, but the news was over, so it was time to do that. If you didn’t, you'd be out of sync.

I don't have nostalgia for it, not really. It was lonely. But I do think that, too, is a shared experience, and maybe one that we don't have anymore. If you knew what it was to be a person at the wrong time, to be alone, to be in a car in the middle of a town where everyone else was asleep and the last person you were going to talk to that night was the graveyard shift gas station attendant-- if you knew that, I think it never went away. I think you can watch things set in that era now and feel unsettled at the easy connection, the passing communication and how quickly people discard their interactions. Because you can't explain to a culture where anyone is always a message away what it feels like to be the only person in your whole world.

#yeah this is about stranger things #but also the modern cobra kai interpretation of what the 80s were like #and also just the ramblings thoughts of someone who used to work a swing shift back before taco bell was open all night

i love OFF posting while being a multi fandom blog bc i can assume that everyone has a general idea of what submas or pokemon is but at least 50% of submas/pokemon folk don't know what OFF is about or maybe isnt aware of the spinOFF community so its like theres... an abstract world of blocks inhabited by marshmallow people... a giant bird... a ghost-killing baseball player with religious undertones... medical imagery... but then the ghost-killing baseball player gets teleported to the "real world" and eats a buritto at taco bell???

#shoutoud to the submas and off weilding people i see u guys #for those who dont know taco bell batter is from Play Ball u should play it literally the fangame ever

Of course I'm thinking about Philly (and the crazy luxury apartment I had there I wish was mine + the Trader Joe snacks on my virgin european stomach) today

#personal #23/3/2023 is a year ago today that I visited Philadelphia #despite despite...i had the best stay and left with really good eyebrows :) Loved the neighborhoods they reminded me of home #and got a copy of Zinn's super socialist historic lense of America in a bookstore called the Wooden Shoe or something. that was rad #And I had fun with my friend who's been the funniest and most considerate tour guide. who I'd still like to think of as friend #philadelphia #travel #*That's not the Taco Bell bell in chocolate btw. as contrary to popular belief

Submission Guidelines – Taco Bell Quarterly

Taco Bell Quarterly seeks literary/creative essays, short stories, fiction/prose, poems, comics, art, one act plays, fever dreams, multimedia, stupid status updates, criticisms, manifestos, recipes and anything else that explore any and all elements of Taco Bell. Or not. Shoehorn a chalupa in your short story. Maybe we’ll love it. An elegy for the discontinued menu items? Fine. An experimental essay about marine biology and the XXL Grilled Stuft Burrito? Awesome. Review the new Beefy Fritos Burrito and how it reminds you of the time your grandma died? We want it. Something that introduces us to inventive form, dynamic language, and strong voice. Or perhaps it does none of the above. We’re not judgey and pretentious. We’re the Taco Bell fucking Quarterly. We lean towards pieces that are queer and center their pain/joy in a Taco Bell.

#sure why the hell not #taco bell #taco bell and thc go hand in hand #who hasn't written taco bell fanfiction in some form even in a dialogue

i keep forgetting the Japanese restaurant that was open till 3am shut down permanently a while ago

they were one of the best places to get reasonably priced incredible tasting food. u could get 3 entrees for like twenty bucks and now if i want curry i either have to make it or buy it before 9

#sometimes all u want is Golden Curry with katsudon #i will have it ☝🏾 but akskskaka i wish there were more places open past 9pm. i Really wish there were places open past midnight #what is a nightlife when the only thing open past midnight is a gas station‚ taco bell and jack in the box 😔 #and maybe this one Mexican spot around here depending on the day #but back in my hometown u had options okay 😭 there r ppl who prefer working night shifts. there r ppl who stay up late. etc

the thing about making taco bell a huge part of your personality is that every time you hang out with someone they will start to crave taco bell just from the power of your presence alone. so every time you are with a friend they’ll suggest you go to taco bell because they don’t really go unless they’re with you and they assume you’ll always want taco bell. which is true except when you eat so much fucking taco bell you don’t know anything else and you’re getting desperate for some variety any variety.

#this is a safe space right? i can admit i need a break from taco bell?? #it’s all my gf ever wants to eat ever but the thing is i only have myself to blame i was the one who introduced her…..i’ve created a monster

i think i also use ocs more in selfship cuz in real life i’m not the most interesting person in the world? so i would much rather follow the life of someone more interesting? i don’t often think to make Me But Cooler, i usually default to Cooler Person Than Me ig lol

#i really don’t mean this to be self-deprecating either. having a relatively normal life is not a bad thing #im like that ‘s/o to trans girls who work at taco bell’ post if you know the one i’m talking abt #like i’m just here chillin. #i also just like to create cool characters lol. that’s probably more to do with it #i have a big imagination #tea time!

When I see a naturally skinny person eat literally whatever they want or preach intuitive eating I hope they fall down a flight of stairs

#not even to injure them just so they’re embarrassed #like… it just makes me so mad because it’s literally just their metabolism and genetics so why are they telling me how to live #and also those tiktok girls who are skinny as fuck and then show them eating like five Taco Bell tacos and twenty nuggets and four burgers.. #makes me so fucking angry I could literally scream

there's something unbelievably funny about Jadus spreading his arms and bellowing revel in the power of the Dark Council when you know he doesn't even attend their meetings in the first place

#marr: why didn't you attend the meeting #jadus: read at 11:59 #marr: this is a vocal conversation #original you can LEAVE king #HIT DA BRICKS!! #fuck da emperar..fuck da dark council...fuck da war.. #swtor #ooc #it's hilarious that people fall for his scary persona and think he's the ultimate evil bad guy sith dictator but he's actually the asshole #who hates the entire system and skips class to go fuck off to taco bell bc he's too smart for the regular curriculum #actually what makes this even funnier. he also walked out of the war
