Do you have any headcanons when it comes to ships? (Like what different ships do with eachother and stuff..if that makes sense.. I seriously hope it does-)
Oh definitely
Greaseball and Rusty slow dance every weekend. They're extremely sappy (it makes everyone else sick).
Ashley and Buffy plan huge summer cookouts for the whole yard. Biggest power couple in the world.
Dinah and Hashimoto are probably the most healthy, perfect relationship in the world. They're the one couple that never fights or anything.
CB isn't very good at romance, so Dustin plans all their dates and outings. They do simple stuff, usually just a nice dinner or picnic.
Brandi and Coco are very on-and-off. Their first meeting was very sexually charged, they're still working on the romance part.
Rocco (rocky 2) and Carrie are goofballs to the max- Their relationship literally came from one massive prank to trick the yard into thinking they were dating, and it morphed into them actually dating.

This essay from American Prospect:
For the past few days, I’ve been fortunate to spend an extended weekend in this lovely, historic hilltop town. Looking out to the north, your eyes see two sights. One is the endless miles of vineyards that produce the world-famous Sancerre wines, for which the climate here in the Loire Valley is perfectly suited. The other distinctive sight are the plumes from two neighboring nuclear power plants. And the two sights are related.
For eons, the two-week grape harvest in Sancerre has started in early October. As recently as 2013, a relatively cool year, the harvest began on October 2.
This year, the Sancerre wine harvest started the first week in September. At this rate of accelerated warming from global climate disruption, the magnificent wine production of the Loire Valley will be gone in another few decades.
Walk around Sancerre and nothing has changed. The annual harvest festival is in full swing. But everything has changed.
Yesterday, the Times reported that Spain’s largest olive oil producing province, Jaén, accounting for one-fifth of the world’s output, is almost out of business because of extreme drought, another casualty of global climate change. The climate crisis is on us, right now.
What does this have to do with those nearby nuclear towers? Decades ago, when the near-catastrophic accident at Three Mile Island happened, followed by the meltdown at Chernobyl and then Fukushima, most environmentalists were firmly in the no-nukes camp. But the French went in another direction.
The socialized national power company, Électricité de France, made a big bet on safe nuclear power plants as the best transitional fuel to an all-renewable future. As a result, French electricity today is 71 percent nuclear, 21 percent renewables, and just 8 percent fossil fuels. It generates almost zero carbon. Germany, meanwhile, closed all but three of its nuclear power plants and built 31 new coal-fired plants. Its electric power sector is 24 percent run on coal.
In a world where the best is the enemy of the good, the French got it right. But climate change is accelerating at such a pace that even if all nations do everything right, we may have missed the rendezvous to a sustainable future.
One other observation, perhaps influenced by some fine local wine and observations of French trains, farming, markets, planning, and public systems: Much of Europe, despite political turmoil, works.
So much of what is destroying the planet originates in the toxic policies, whether financial or environmental, of the good old USA. France can do a lot right, but if the U.S. does so much that is wrong, we still share the same planet. Biden’s steps toward better climate policy are a bare beginning of what’s needed.
I wish I had an uplifting punch line other than "Pass the Sancerre."

A Big Breasted Wine
A Big Breasted Wine
If you want the snobbery taken out of wine tasting, bring me along.
Last night, my partner and I went to one of these wine events at one of Missoula’s local taphouses, Cambie. They’re renovating their kitchen in their newest location because Missoulian’s have been experiencing good food, finally, (to go along with their local craft beers) and they want more. Cambie’s owners decided to hold a…

Ava's Wine and Cheese
Aotearoa New Zealand produces some really beautiful wines, especially crisp and tangy or floral and ripe-fruit-y (think peach!) whites. Thus, the bottle I brought to my girl from France was a Rhône Valley Crozes-Hermitage, a full-bodied red with notes of berries and spice. Ava announced on Tuesday that she would take care of dinner, and produced this tasty Wine and Cheese. The cheeses, if not French, were really very good, and paired beautifully with the wine.
She picked a "French Style" Brie, slightly firm with a deep strong flavour, spicy, nutty and gorgeously crumbly Aged Cheddar, and a a nice Feta, both fresh and salty, which she sprinkled with sage, marjoram and thyme. She liberally sprinkled Tamari Almonds onto the cheeses, and served them with Crackers, crusty Rustic Baguette, butter, and Dressed Lettuce --the Balsamic Vinegar in the dressing bringing a touch of sweetness to the whole meal!
The hardest part was opening the bottle as New Zealand wine doesn't come with cork stoppers, and we did not have a corkscrew. Luckily, the concierge uncovered a tiny Swiss knife in the lost and found, and we managed with the miniature corkscrew! (Do not try to push the cork in, as was her first suggestion; there's no better way to ruin a good beverage!)
Ava's Wine and Cheese worked really well because of the variety of cheeses, and how well each paired with the wine, and it was a tour de force, given we're not staying here very long! She pairs so wonderfully with me, eh?
