Thanks for the questions! I just did maple, so:
cinnamon – if you had to live in a time period different than the present, which would you choose and where?
Oh, jeez. Can I change my gender in this scenario? If not, can I index it to “whenever and wherever it sucked least to be a woman”? Which might just be when and where I am now… or now, but in Sweden or something. If I could be a man – and also not Jewish – maybe Vienna in the 1890s? Or the Italian Renaissance, I’m kind of feeling that today. I’d have to be noble or middle-class, though. And I’d have to do something about my sense of smell…
amber – share an unpopular opinion that you may have.
Isn’t that basically all I do on this site? An unpopular opinion that I haven’t already shared to death… um. Hawaiian pizza is delicious? Yes, you heard it here, I’m a pineapple on pizza person. OK, that’s probably too bland, as unpopular opinions go. Uh… I don’t know if this is unpopular around here, but it’s probably a little odd: I think the world should be united under a single government that guarantees everyone certain rights, then divided into progressively smaller administrative regions, based on things like natural geographic boundaries and crop-growing conditions, which would decide local matters for themselves. There would be completely free movement across these local boundaries. They wouldn’t divide existing communities, but otherwise they wouldn’t take things like ethnicity into account, except inasmuch as official business would be conducted in the native languages of all groups with a sufficient concentration in the region. Yeah, I’m a secret utopian.
