Me personally, I had a pumpkin beer. I don't get the hate for pumpkin beer or coffee, it's a good seasonal flavor.

Women like it. Feminine = bad.
It literally does not go deeper than this
I will give two additional reasons:
- I can't drink 15 of them
- It's mashed in your face nonstop for months
I blame both on capitalism.
Always seemed to me that pumpkin spice lattes were associated with Starbucks and the customer base that it entailed.
The average chud’s dislike of starbucks (and its customer base) is at least 80% due to distaste for femininity. The other 20% is because they don’t explicitly say “merry Christmas” on all their stuff during the holidays
I'm sure that's a big part of it. I've just always associated it with narcissistic yuppies that don't think twice about paying $6 for bean water, also that they would have separate locations almost right on top of each other.
Haven't had a pumpkin beer in a while, but i made plans to listen to a Call of Cthulhu reading on vinyl that I picked up on tour with a comrade, and carve pumpkins during + roast the seeds.
I will eat homemade roasted pumpkin seeds until my jaws are sore and my guts are torn up from shells, goddamn do I love pumpkin seats.
Picking up reading cozy gay novels. Kigu onesies. Evening herbal tea.

Any you'd recommend? :hyperflush:
Maurice! It's a cute gay romance written in 1914. The author was afraid of it being seen so he released it after his death in 1970.
CW: dated attitudes though.
Where I live it doesn't officially cool off until around Halloween.
That seems like an odd way to celebrate to me, but you do you!
Having my phone out at work playing "Mao's Red Book" audiobook
I did some stargazing last night with my small reflector telescope. This year has been the first year I've really gotten into stargazing in general, and it's made me hyper-aware of things like seasonal changes and the phases of the moon.
It's been really cool actually noticing the nights getting longer on a day by day basis and the visible constellations changing in tune. The Pleiades cluster is starting to rise at a reasonable time now. It's so beautiful and obvious to just the unaided eye that I'm really shocked I had never noticed it before actively seeking it out.
Nice! That's really cool. In my line of work I am also rather aware of the changing of the sunset/sunrise as the year shifts. This time of year has gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, too.
Groceries and laundry :yea:
But today I was knee deep in a river. Glad I went for a degree that give me an excuse to go outdoorsWent to a baseball game, had a couple of beers in the autumn chill and enjoyed the fact that the team I root for finally got rid of their shitty, racist name and logo.
Been experimenting with pumpkin spice in Chai. I guess that counts?
Can't drink beer, even if that sounds good. Beer + stress = no good times for Crohnies :kitsuragi-depress:
Sorry to hear that comrade :meow-hug:
But pumpkin chai sounds delicious!
:left-unity-3:
Yeah, it was. I've been trying to get down milk tea by mixing spices as of late. Weirdly, pumpkin spice goes well with cardamom, turmeric, nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon.
I got some pumpkin spice oat creamer for my iced coffee.
YES I SAID PUMPKIN SPICE COME OUT YOU COWARD.
🎶 Come out, come out ye black and tans, come out and drink nice coffee like a man 🎶
Happy start of spring to all comrades in the southern hemisphere!
