Wholesome internet stalking

(I use the word "stalking" in jest. I am amused because usually when one has cause to "stalk" a user's post history, it's because there's some drama or dirt that turns up. I always feel awkward and a bit vulnerable when I reflect on how people can peruse your post history at will, but I find the wholesomeness of this subverts the anxiety I usually feel at this prospect. It's scary that we can quickly find enough to summarise a person's online presence, but "generally very appreciative of simple things and beautiful sights" is a lovely thing to be, and makes me wonder how I would come across at a glance. Good, I hope — because it turns out that it is possible to have positive conversations with internet strangers)

Ironic that you should mention dirt and drama in one's post history when you're the same person who posted this:

What is your favourite autumn soup?

I've cooked this! Successfully! Multiple times! Some even with homegrown Hokkaido pumpkins. And it was delicious. So proud ;)

I'm not looking for any trouble, buddy.

Hmmm, I guess I never really thought to divide my soups by season.

You're not gonna eat pumpkin soup in the summer!? Gazpacho in winter, God forbid!?

Pardon my French, but you've lost your marbles.
