Hey, friend, fun fact on the pickle situation with your sister: botulism spores struggle VERY hard to grow in a highly acidic environment, so as long as she follows recipes and/or uses a little too much vinegar in her brine, the likelihood of the spores growing enough to produce botulinum toxin is very, very low. Botulism in and of itself (spores) is nontoxic! Its everywhere! However, it *becomes* toxic when it settles and grows in an anerobic environment (such as a poorly canned jar of low-acid food!) and produces its potent toxin. Sincerely: a home canner who loves making pickles for my pickle obsessed roommate. Its green beans this week!

[@soyjoyy]

Oh yeah, people have been pickling stuff for centuries, in Asia and Central-Eastern Europe for instance. I don't understand where all of these botulism fears come from. Use vinegar or sugar, depending on whether it's savory or sweet.

[@Ohforgodssakethatsme]

@@soyjoyy Fun Fact- if you use an old pickling or canning recipe (but don't if you have a choice), you need to add more acid because the produce we grow today has a lower natural acid content than back in the old days.

So Carrie (not sure how it was spelled in the book) was the 20th most popular baby name in America in 1880 and Josh is from Joshua which is a biblical name that’s been around in one variation or another for millennia. Both could definitely have existed in the time frame of the book. I have a feeling this is maybe like “the Tiffany problem” where Tiffany is a name from the 12th century but it sounds too modern to us today so no one uses it in historical fiction because readers will go, hmm that doesn’t seem like an accurate name for that time period, even though it totally is!

I was probably 11 when I read my first romance novel. I forgot to pack a book for the roadtrip I was on, so when we stopped at a pharmacy for snacks, I just picked a novel based on the cover (pretty lady in pretty historical dress) and $5 price, only to discover it was a bodice ripper while trapped in a cramped van with my family for >6 hours a day. Too embarrassed to tell my parents so I could beg for another book, I had to endure an entire vacation with only a spicy romance to read, in a time before children had portable electronics, in close quarters with my parents. 😭 I skipped past some pages so fast, I’m surprised the pages weren’t torn out.

In my experience (on AO3 and also just like as a woman) desirability is considered such a virtue that it can overlook a lot of crimes. That’s why cheating is typically the one and only romance book nonnegotiable. Like, murder, SA, kidnapping, theft, abuse, etc can be forgiven if spun in some sort of obsessive “He just desires me so much” light. And that says so much about our society because I see that same virtue of desirability leading actual women I know to make such awful decisions. And that struggle definitely reflects in women’s literature.
