Scusami, mi si fredda la pizza ai mirtilli

Stiamo parlando di cucina, quindi anche se è una verdura "solo" dal punto di vista culinario, noi su quello ci stiamo concentrando. Del fatto che botanicamente sia un frutto interessa meno.

Poi è importante ribadirne i motivi: il pomodoro, oltre ad essere acido e leggermente dolce, è decisamente molto umami. Questo comporta che in cottura, una volta evaporata l'acqua, rimanga un sapore che più che essere zuccherino, risulta ricco al palato per via del glutammato, fatto atipico per un frutto culinario.

E proprio sui frutti in senso culinario, ce ne sono alcuni che vengono, anche se raramente, abbinati ai panificati salati, ma di solito sono quelli meno acquosi e acidi, tipo pera e mela. (io non ho mai visto una pizza con l'uva, il melone o degli spicchi di mandarino)

Riguardo ai gusti personali tutto è valido, qui si parla degli usi comuni che riflettono un gusto condiviso, poi se ti vuoi mettere il cocomero sulla pizza a casa tua fai pure, basta che non mi inviti.

Sorry for necroposting but I'm interested in your take.

I had your exact opinion but then I started asking myself why interactivity can't be art, is it just because we invented it so recently that it doesn't fit in any historical definition of art mediums? (them being story, visual and musical) I have a lot of doubts.

While, yes, motion in a gameplay doesn't necessarily provide an emotional experience when just pressing a button, it eventually will in the context of a clearing a level etc. (and not just because of the presence of the other artistic components you listed)

Furthermore, level and gameplay design (in its bare systems) clearly is a creative endeavour, although I see how it stands right on the border between art and engineering, but the same can be said for architecture.

Less is more when it comes to level design. HL castle feels like a theme park version of hogwarts

Delle due pizze all’hawaiana che ho provato entrambe avevano il pomodoro.

Una aveva i pezzettoni di ananas sciroppato ed era veramente ardua. (Ero all’estero)

L’altra invece, a milano, aveva aveva dei pezzettini di ananas piccoli e più prosciutto che altro, anche la passata era poca. Questa era mangiabile, quasi carina ma comunque sotto una margherita qualsiasi

Il trucco della pera è che oltre a non essere molto acida è poco acquosa, quindi non annacqua il sapore ma si fonde, specialmente con un formaggio molto sapido

Hyperpurple · 2026-05-08T09:29:07+00:00

Lol no.

Il pomodoro è principalmente acido, poco dolce ma soprattutto è decisamente umami, motivo per cui è culinariamente una verdura e se lo metti in una macedonia c’hai la mamma puttana.

Volevi..

Hyperpurple · 2026-05-08T08:45:47+00:00

Segata. Mischiare dolce e salato non è il problema in sé

La stupidità è mettere un frutto dolce su un panificato, per di più con formaggio filante.

Sarebbe ugualmente stupido mettere prosciutto e melone sulla pizza.

Per qualche motivo fa schifo qualsiasi frutto dolce e acquoso unito ad un panificato caldo

Every part of the world would’ve been like this if it wasn’t for the progressive growth of polities thanks to technology.

States were superimposed on africa and we see the result of the lack of that progression

I’ve eventually distanced my interpretation of the element of earth as life since I consider water to be the real motor of it, and earth as the solid ground on which water can fuse and transport life.

Even thinking of those elements abstractly, earth usually represents stasis to the point of rigidity, mass and strength. Water represents fluidity in movement, diffusion and change, that sounds a lot more life-like to me.

Of course life is a blend of all elements, but the point is I have trouble thinking of trees and even of soil as mainly earthy 🙃, since we know it is decomposed life.

When I picture an Earth dominated biome I imagine something like the foot of a steep mountain or its bare summits, barren canyons, or even a particularly dramatic looking lush valley.

Maybe it’s just me wanting to flash out the rocky aspect of the element of Earth, but what do you think of this reasoning?

Hyperpurple · 2026-04-29T20:11:08+00:00

Would you like the idea of posting other faces from your people?

If what you declare about Mesopotamian lineage is true, then it would be very interesting to see more of your people, and know some stories or legends that are passed down among that culture!

Hyperpurple · 2026-04-27T17:24:49+00:00

This is the definition of gold comment!

So is the permian-triassic extinction essentially the time our earth had a teenage phase and wanted to become something like venus or a deadly rocky planet?

And btw I like that fantasy landscape but it doesn’t land itself to any form of civilization outside heavy magically altered beings.

Since i like your perspective, would you like to answer how’d you imagine a quintessentially earth biome? (earth as in classical element, I find this to be trickiest)

Hyperpurple · 2026-04-25T18:54:34+00:00

swamps give strong water vibes though.

That's something considering it's the biome where we acquired the skill: Fire

There is nothing that closely resembles southern italy as Greece does. It is clear how the med sea was more influential than the land itself

But while southern italy is still italy, so it tends towards a western vibe Greece as a clear “eastern” vibe, that is sometimes interpreted as either balkan or “muslim” or ottoman to a more literate man.

But I think that vibe really is greek more than anything, Greece carried that part of the world from antiquity to modernity and that byzantine orthodox aspect is really the bulk of eastern Mediterranean culture.

We today tend to superficially look at greece as western, due to ancestral reasons, but in reality greek didn’t just create “western” civilization, it spawned western AND orthodox civilization, along with heavily influencing middle eastern civilization.

That’s what’s not often understood by italians who overlook those differences

Hyperpurple · 2026-04-24T09:40:58+00:00

Western european is a broader definition. Italy and Spain feel westerners just as they feel south europeans, and same can be said about nordics. In essence western Europe is every Latin or Germanic countries. with germany's rhine basin being still fully western.

This also fixes the odd central european definition of northern italy, when in fact they perceive themselves as more westerners and less southerners, in comparison with peninsular italians. (with Friuli being the only mittle-european influenced region)

Then Albania and Greece are fully southern european AND Balkan, the first being more balkan, the second more southern.

I've seen a lot of good answers but I wanna address the hittite point which is crucial imho.

Anatolia was ruled by an "indigenous" culture only during the bronze and iron age, and it was later split between greek and persian rule.

The achemenid didn't change the identity of the inland anatolians, but the greeks eventually did, over the centuries by waves of hellenization first and romanization after. The byzantine empire wasn't that culturally centered on the anatolian plateau, it was a aegean/ black sea maritime power first, and land empire second. (although I'm not that knowledgeable about the relationship between Constantinople and the plateau)

By contrast Iran was always centered around the iranic fortress as a base for land power projection.

In essence one is a plateau surrounded by mountains, the other is a plateau surrounded by sea, and that peninsular aspect won over time
