cranberry turd cart
As far as special holiday showstopping desserts go, one recipe reigns supreme: David Tanis’s cranberry curd tart. It’s not too sweet and gluten-free. Five stars and over 10,500 reviews later, it’s our most popular Thanksgiving dessert.
Cranberry Curd Tart Recipe
If you are a fan of lemon curd or the classic French tarte au citron, you will love this cranberry version To minimize kitchen time, make it in stages, preparing the crust and curd a day or two in advance The finished tart keeps well for a couple of days too

Human sexuality is wild. A yak is emotionally distant in your childhood and then someday you find yourself attracted to RFK Jr.
The women drawn to RFK Jr. see an intoxicating cocktail of romance and danger—whether it's getting attacked by a yak or texting about taking metaphorical bullets for each other.
But to most others, Kennedy is a reckless conspiracy theorist whose appetite for danger will result in a sicker America.

The inexplicable sex appeal of RFK Jr.
How can such ferocious desire be attached to this man? Two memoirs by the women who love him offer some clues.

Obviously my algorithm is tilting things a certain way, but I see almost universal disdain from humans on every platform. Over on Twitter, ppl are still lining up to dunk on the Suno grifter lady like she’s standing under a child’s hoop.
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?
