I also lived through the ‘80s and used to feel the way you do, but now I appreciate a lot of it (especially compared to the ‘90s!).

Someone on my FB feed said something like “and it won’t kill you like regular ice cream.” Ice cream is not a weapon; eat a normal serving as a sometimes treat and it won’t “kill you.”

Are we THE SAME?? It’s not unlike achieving satiety after a reasonable serving of real, full-fat cheese.

Talenti salted caramel is bonkers. Weirdly enough I’m not into their chocolate, though. I have a thing about texture and flavor, e.g. Haagen-Dazs-type consistency is perfect for vanilla, and the texture and cocoa intensity of Bryers chocolate does the trick.

Homemade coconut milk ice cream is incredibly easy! I can eat anything but love to make it because it’s a different type of craving to me (the way frozen yogurt craving is also ≠ ice cream).

I don’t get it either! If grocers had unlimited freezer space then if someone wants to approach dessert that way, fine. But people like us who go for quality over quantity for satiety now have to sacrifice selection. For instance, I now cannot buy spumoni at my local grocer because they have replaced that brand with…

It’s such an American reaction: instead of enjoying a limited and reasonable amount of the real thing, eat an entire pint of garbage substitute.

I live in a “hot” neighborhood with rapidly changing demographics, and limited grocer space means my local (NYC) Key Foods has reallocated freezer space formerly devoted to the delicious and reasonably-priced San Bernardo ice cream to this fucking Halo garbage.

I was able to camouflage my ADHD/Aspergers for a long time, and now that I’m in my mid-40s it’s either getting more difficult or I no longer give a shit. My meds keep the ADHD under control, but the Aspergers scale issues are causing problems at work because I don’t display the confidence leading conferences with…

I know a DNA reporter, and this person’s coverage is well-researched and regarded without masking very progressive tendencies. I’m hoping the merger will improve Gothamist’s quality, because while their long-form journalism is excellent many of the blog entries have a very “uptalky” tone.

If people truly believed all lives mattered, we wouldn’t need to reiterate the future is female. Perhaps you believe we’ve eradicated gender inequality, but you might want to review the events of the last few weeks (particularly the chilling photo comprising only men signing anti-choice legislation). Those who…

So that’s how you atone for calling those of us who don’t align with your purist notions “morons.”

Congratulations. You’ve achieved the minimum “-ist” level. Any decent person believes all humans are deserving of rights.

Tell me how you positively contribute to your community.

I’m going to pass on your bad advice.

oh look a “humanist!”

You sound like a tough guy!

My friend took lessons with her as a kid, and she confirms Harding would do these impossible jumps without really having to practice. Her mother wore a fake fur coat that smelled like piss, and sometimes she was still drunk from the night before on the days she’d hang out and watch.

This makes me even more bummed out we’re unlikely to have a public option (Medicare option for all) for a long time, if ever. Everyone always jumps to single payer as the go-to solution without considering that universal multi payer systems can not only cover everyone, but also allow those a private insurer if they…

GAHHHHH!!
