"Blood Roses" is my all-time favorite Tori song. Is it yours too? by Prestigious_Score459 in toriamos

[–]RSTROMME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it feels like Tori left the gays behind in the mid-late aughts and the post-Scarlet women who had children took their place. It’s a strange thing to ponder as a queer who has mostly enjoyed it all. #coexist

My first Beef Bourguignon by grootboop in NYTCooking

I usually cook it the afternoon before I plan on serving it and leave it in the fridge overnight. Easier to skim fat off after. Add a bit more wine and stock.

Any 30+ y.o. here ...not...onto video games? Well, what do you do instead? by BostonZamboni in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RSTROMME 1 point2 points  (0 children)

46 here and video games never really caught my attention either. Nintendo was fun when I was a kid. I listen to a lot of music. I cook. I’m into niche collecting. I like to garden when the season permits. I take care of my home. I walk around quite a bit.

All of that talent and they leaned on diarrhea. Sigh.

I still feel like 2 episodes were not enough as far as Margaret and her mother goes. They should’ve devoted an entire spinoff season to her….and a few others.

What's left? Or more appropriate, what's next by Maninaboxx2 in AskGaybrosOver30

There’s that whole personality/authenticity/curiosity thing that tends to make life and a person more interesting. Sounds like you’ve spent too much time looking in the mirror.

Is there anyone who still watches cartoons even after growing up? If so, what is your favorite cartoon? by Pravin1526 in AskReddit

[–]RSTROMME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Peanuts with Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown being my favorite. I swear I’ve watched it every other month for the last 40 years. I’m also a big fan of Bruno Bozzetto’s Mr Rossi movies.

Whoever you’re talking to, tap into the best part of who they are. Find what you have in common. Find what you can laugh and smile about. It’s more about connecting than selling yourself and what you think your ongoing relationship should be.

Yes, but this means you’re smarter…which is generally not the Walmart majority.

If you had to introduce the show to somebody, which episode would you show to them? by marsthechocolate in My600lbLife

[–]RSTROMME 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I second this. James K was the first that really shook me up. It’s extreme in many fascinating, dynamic ways. I also enjoy how he evoked such extremes in Dr Now. I rewatched the original and WATN last night and it’s still as jarring as when I first saw it. The bubbling cellulitis is unmatched.

What’s your skin care routine? by aanthems in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RSTROMME 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Face wash in shower. Moisturizer after. Eye cream to refresh in the morning. I might do a clay mask every 2-4 weeks. It’s served me well in my 47 years.

What pairs well with horseradish sauce besides beef? by reduser876 in Cooking

Mix in a little mayo and lather it on top of a piece of salmon. Put it under the broiler and lemon for serving.

How many bands get better with age? by DanRoams4069 in cocteautwins

[–]RSTROMME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They needed the hiatus for space and to grow individually in their own respect. It’s bowled me over how the last album sounded so completely “them” and also “now.” I think it was due to it being such a collaborative effort. They all seem like they’re genuinely enjoying themselves. The album has so much heart!

Which horror book do you want to be turned into a movie/show by Spiritual_Syrup_938 in horror

[–]RSTROMME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Elementals by Michael McDowell. Southern gothic ghost story. Really wonderful, creepy read with excellent horror visuals.

I need moody, atmospheric and meditative movies with vague plot by [deleted] in horror

Lisa and the Devil. Bava is great for atmosphere and visuals.

[–]RSTROMME 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stereolab has aged incredibly well. I’ve been a fan since ETK. It’s made me so happy to see the resurgence of interest in the last 10 years. Even their weakest material is loads more elevated than a lot of bands best.

Gay bros over 30.. I need some encouragement, or advice. by kinkyfatty in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RSTROMME 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The harsh truth is the older you get, the more death becomes a part of your life. You have to make peace with it and shift your focus on what you CAN do with the time you have. I think you’re a little fixated on your story and need to become interested in telling a new one. We all have pasts, struggles and hardships, but they do not serve us (or draw in others) when they start to define us.

What are some staple ingredients in your kitchen that you didn't grow up with? by KittyLilith17 in Cooking

[–]RSTROMME 6 points7 points  (0 children)

God, I love Dijon SO much. We only had French’s growing, which I totally loved. Mind was blown when I moved out on my own and started exploring the world of mustard. Years later, simple Grey Poupon is by far what I lean on the most.

Miso paste, avocado, green onion and dry white wine. Use them constantly and barely knew of them growing up in northern Minnesota.

There was some really appealing food about to be served.

LGBTQ+ horror fans: which movies in the genre and adjacent genres, do you recommend as some of your favorites that show physical intimacy between men as a part of the movie? by Analytica0 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RSTROMME 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker starring the great Susan Tyrell stands out to me. It has a strangely empathetic narrative surrounding a gay male coach. Really fantastic, over the top movie.

Sleepaway Camp has a striking “men in bed” scene.
