Yeah, probably, but sadly Ivanka herself is more about how people perceive Ivanka than about Ivanka herself.

I kind of wanted to know if the woman who campaigned against stopping Trump because socialism is dating Senator Pharma, but then I found out she was one of the Fyre Festival guys first celebrity influencers and I figured I already knew everything I needed to.

I’m going to be really interested to see how NYS is going to respond to this, because the affluent suburbs are heavily dependent on huge mortgage interest and SALT deductions, and their wealth is tied up in their houses.

Yes. I do understand exactly what you’re saying. I also understand that the conditions which affect the terms of a warrantee are generally conditions which are not part of the expected use of the item and which will cause damage.

Nestlé bought the company that makes Baci. I only ever got that a few times a year, but I still get a craving every now and then. Think of Nutella as nocciole methadone.

Just. No. Because no restaurant worth its - salt, I guess - would buy pots that can’t be used with salt.

I’m just saying, if whatever those pots are made of is so reactive that you can’t cook with salt without erosion, I don’t want to eat food made in them.

Just, it’s a way-too-rich dip tribute to hot dish. If she left out the weirdly inappropriate rotel and served it with biscuit chunks and tater tots on skewers, I would think it was cute. This baffles me.

Cassava root has a ton of water-soluble vitamins, a ridiculous amount of accessible calories, can be grown in drought conditions with next to no maintenance, and doesn’t need to be stored above ground. The leaves of some of the varieties have to be treated before eating, but they contain a lot of protein (and there…

Hey, the producer of The Apprentice who refused to give up the tapes got expensed from the Inaugural Committee for travel, and then he and his lovely and highly-moral wife (the volubly “faith-based Christian” Roma Downey) got their own religion-friendly programming channel from Fox.

As soon as she had a few teeth in place, mine used to gnaw on marinated mushrooms or artichoke hearts.

You could make a pretty good argument that the Republican is in the White House because they’re conservative. The House the Zucker Built leans hard right.

But he’s probably got someone like Peter Thiel backing him financially, so what does he care?

In a way, it was a very similar time. As soon as Reagan got in (on the back of racist white union members who didn’t realize that when you cut a people-size hole in the social safety net white men can fall through it) there was a flood of MAGA-style racist and sexist and homophobic triumphalism. It wasn’t OK, but the…

Heavy cream and cream cheese with bacon and sausage and cream soup in the velveeta?

I think the biggest problem with doing it that way is that unseasoned pasta needs a lot more salt in the sauce. Of course, maybe their sauce is just that salty...

Not that Paltrow is a vegan or vegetarian (or a particularly mindful eater if her wedding catering is any guide), but there are entire cultures out there which have been making interesting sustainable vegan food for thousands of years. How did she go with bad imitation Denny’s food?

Do you honestly think that would surprise anyone who’s ever eaten at an Olive Garden?

True enough (although not all varieties, and mostly in the leaves, I think). Still, I  suspect the whole grows in a drought thing is pretty going to be pretty key...

Yes. I remember back when I started earning a living as a tipped employee 35 years ago thinking that wasn’t entirely fair.
