I am so fatigued by the gender wars and divide. Men, women, transwomen and transmen and non-binary peoples...we all need each other. I won't turn my back on another human being because of how they identify and I will never platform one over the other EVER (unless you're an asshole then fk u)

Best cheesecake I had was served at the Waldorf Astoria in DC. Had that a month ago. But by and large, not a fan although Balls, the Greek spot, makes a good one too. Sweet potato pie is disgusting. Horchata, egg nog, and that other holiday milk based drink, all that sht is gross.

Malfy (Originale but they also have an excellent Limon one but go with original first).

Engine Gin. Comes in a tin can. Serviceable, affordable, highly mixable.

I can suggest at least half a dozen off the top of my head. Just feels like Italian gin makes since in a drink inspired by a North Italian food staple.

Even if I was in Chicago or Alaska, I would wait but I also enjoy being cold.

Lol good. Yes I've been there three times. I love the place. One of my favorite cocktails.

D.L. Chandler @dlchandler123.bsky.social · 1d

I've been here..won't say the name of the place of course. I had them use Italian gin.

Just got a high four figure check for a job I did in late 2024 & I should asked for more since they were late & I delivered the work early but it's a small non profit so I'm gonna chill. I forgot about this. Nice surprise. What should I buy first? Nintendo switch 2 or these Foamposites?

D.L. Chandler @dlchandler123.bsky.social · 1d

Okay so what's y'all PB to J ratio? Mine is 85 percent PB to 15 percent jelly. With a side of plain potato chips.

The thing I hate about, "have the day you voted for" in response to these MAGA idiots is that we also gotta have the day they voted for.

Getting upset at Angel Reese as a grown adult man is very, very, very weird. I don't know what happened to men since COVID, but a lot of us lost the sauce and the plot.
