Could we, without relentlessly criticising, let people have their pumpkin spice, avocado toast, fandoms, D&D, too-early Halloween decorations and whatever little harmless things in which they've managed to find a tiny, shriveled flower of joy?
@cmconseils Does it include pineapple on pizza ? Because I kinda like it...
@rafseries @cmconseils
I will mute you for the rest of time but enjoy yourself.
@kawunngg @cmconseils And I haven't told you yet about corn on pizzas 🫣
@rafseries @cmconseils
omg. pineapple is worse but now I'm afraid of what else you're coming up with. 😂
@kawunngg @cmconseils In France we're really into goat cheese and honey on pizza but I dont know if that's just us or if everybody does it too

@rafseries
are we still talking about pizza? because it's a delicious topping for Flammekueche / tarte flambée

I recently had vegan potato chips with "goat cheese and caramelized onion" flavor and it was like the best chips I ever had.

@kawunngg I guess goat cheese works just fine with a sweet flavour. And it's so good on pizza 😋
@cmconseils No. Liking fall is racism.
@cmconseils (I pray to the elder gods that this is obvious, but I’m joking.)
@cmconseils late September early October is not too early for Halloween decor (imho) 🎃
Getting out Christmas decorations out in June is WAY beyond my tolerance limit 😹
So in that respect, you do you, but please don’t do Christmas before Halloween please!!! I like seeing pumpkins and colorful leaves before snowfall 😹
🍁🍂🎃🍂🍁
And yes, little harmless things are fine… that’s the point! They’re harmless!😹
@cmconseils
💯
The most confusing haters to me are the anti-emoji crowd. Really can’t stand a yellow head with a smile? 😊
@cmconseils
That reminds me, I really need to try avocado toast
@AndorianSoup @cmconseils I was eating avocado toast before it was cool.
@cmconseils just wait until I start my Xmas music on 11/01!
@heyfluxay @cmconseils I was wondering, as a Brit, why you'd start after Christmas? I get it, I get it.

@cmconseils

I have declared myself to be "basic".

Anytime someone wants to tell me I'm liking things the wrong way, I just smile and say "Yeah, I'm basic".

I also stop listening to whatever they have to say after that.

It is my only superpower.

@cmconseils @jztusk i might just have to adopt that stance

@andrea_smandrea @cmconseils

Welcome to Basicville. It's a pretty chill place.

@cmconseils

I don't mind "too-early Halloween", I prefer it over it "too-early in September Christmas".  

Gotta shake things up.

@cmconseils I'm really curious as to when it was that everyone started collectively referring to pumpkin pie spice as simply "pumpkin spice".
@gcvsa @cmconseils it's just 'pudding spice' in the UK but then only bakers remembered that and now because we have so little cultural memory, we've taken on the US companies' version too.
And some people think it's... Made from pumpkins... 🙄
@cmconseils
I really want to post the photo of Mariah Carey in an x-mas outfit being defrosted here...

@cmconseils @gannet Yes please.

Signed, Hits Up Every Cafe in Autumn to Try Their Pumpkin Spice and Tells No One Because People Get Surprisingly Weirdly Mean About It

@cmconseils Josh Johnson has a hilarious clip on the wholesomeness of white joy in fall.

@cmconseils totally happy with people enjoying spooky season!! Better than, as many have said, banging on about Christmas all year (as a November birthday and SAD-sufferer, it really genuinely hurts)

As long as people are mindful of wildlife and don't cover bushes in fake cobwebs, or buy endless plastic tat they then just throw away and start all over again the next year. This is worse in the US, I found.

Oh and don't ring doorbells if people aren't explicitly up for trick-or-treat, pleeeease

@cmconseils @lothcat LOL I made this for a sweet neighbor years ago. (She had the most adorable sense of humor)
