Of course, ice cream was involved.
President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, hosted a thank you event on Thursday for hundreds of staffers who worked on the reelection campaign that he chose to exit nearly three weeks ago.
Judging by the security tents, the location offered a dose of political nostalgia: The staffers met with Biden at The Queen, a music venue that played a critical role in his successful race for presidency in 2020, when he often spoke to the public from the theater’s stage.
After having dropped out of the race, Biden wanted to show his appreciation for the staff’s work over the past year and their continued efforts in support of Vice President Kamala Harris, who succeeded him as the Democratic nominee. That’s according to a person familiar with the president’s plans who shared details of the events but insisted on anonymity to discuss the arrangements.
The event featured food and, naturally for Biden, his beloved ice cream.
I mean 36% of Americans are lactose intolerant. And the far right, weirdly views dairy consumption as some kind of high status…
I have never met a lactose intolerant person that didnt, upon mentioning it when they inevitably buy something full of lactose, look me dead in the eye and confirm their terrible intolerance before going into a frightening lactose-consuming frenzy that chilled me to my very core.
They know the price they must pay. They laugh at death and spit in the face of genetics. A grim, dangerous people, the lactose intolerant.
I pay the price everyday and I will never stop consuming delicious dairy even as it hurts me so much.
So like, I confirm this.
There are pills these days that are very good at breaking down lactose for you if you take them before eating
Yeah, but most of the lactose intolerant people I know constantly forget to take them, lol.
That just means ice cream is anti-them, not the other way around.
Vegan ice cream can be fantastic, so it’s not just a dairy thing.
I guess, but can is doing a lot of hefty lifting…
Ben & Jerry make amazing ones. That brand that does Avocado ice cream is surprisingly really good (I was very skeptical). Nada Moo Cookies and Cream is pretty good.
Not ice cream, but a lot of the Talenti sorbets are also vegan and very good.
You can make a pretty good homemade version by blending bananas and avocado together and freezing it.
Frozen fruit and fruit juice makes a great creamy fruity ice cream. Add some coconut milk too
The don’t cry over spilled silk at cold stone is sooo good.
Not as much as it used to. There’s some very good vegan ice cream out there. Just expect to pay more and have less selection.
Is that a thing or an exaggeration?
Why White Supremacists Are Chugging Milk (and Why Geneticists Are Alarmed)
Middle Eastern people have been drink milk longer; I guess we have a new master race?
Seriously, these people never cease to disappoint in their weird metrics to prove themselves better than others.
That’s hilarious, because historically in Europe milk drinking was viewed as something peasants did and calling Europeans butter stinkers is one of my more favorite insults.
