Hello folks of the internet,
A reminder the first section in all posts is cheesecakelover bitching so feel free to skip to 'Onto the Cheesecake review'.
This CoVID environment just sucks. You see I am trying to not be a social recluse all the time, as being a recluse all the time really takes a toll on my mental state. CoVID makes it hard (especially since it was politicized God I hate politics). Hot Take: People who post political news on social media believe that the world needs to change, not them, because they are more perfect than the world. Reason I argue this is three fold. First, most political news that folks post is along the lines of 'how bad is the other side doing', since that is mainly what elicits a stronger emotional response (cough cough Negativity Bias) and because it shows everyone that they "could never do such an abhorrent action or say such cruel words" (lol). Second, the effects of 'your presidential vote' on 'your life' are incredibly overblown, given the slowest moving machine known as the federal government and its interaction with state governments. Voting would be much more effective to your life at the state and local level and the national media doesn't give two shits about that. Since you think your presidential vote means something, you feel like you have some form of control over its outcome and thus your life. Its a major stretch and a major escape from looking at yourself. Just to hone in on this point, for all of my privileged democratic friends what the fuck has changed in your life these past four years? Nothing. If you really want your presidential vote to mean something, abolish state governments, and make votes ranked choice to remove the two party system. The first will never happen the second requires a significant movement at the state and local levels. Finally, all of you fucks contributing to the divisiveness of this nation by picking sides. Thus (just like rabid sports fans) you group yourself with the highs and lows of your team, no matter what really is the logical route to go. As humans we naturally do that but its unhealthy and once again removes you from looking at yourself to blame for when your team loses. #endrant
I want to see more good news (shoutout to Good News Network link here). Since this blog isn't going to change how people post on social media, I'm probably just going to delete Facebook. Thank God for Linkedin's unwritten rules.
Onto the Cheesecake review
After working a decent week, swiping a bunch on Bumble (Libe Barer I wasn't planning on cheating on you, but you are cheating on me so its fair), messages on my dating site, and reading about discerning my vocation (speaking of playing on teams), I realized I needed Cheesecake. So I went to the googles and found Florida's Key Lime Pie Company (link here) like a normal human being who is looking for a Cheesecake place because its the same difference. This Key Lime pie place so happened to have vanilla bean Cheesecake so I went and go it. I walked in with my mask on and this was the first time in Cocoa Beach where I had to stand at the door and wait to be given hand sanitizer. The owner seem suspicious of me and asked where I was from. I don't know what I did to arise suspicious. I mean I got long hair flowing hair and look like a young Sylvestor Stallone (ladies holla), maybe the cute lady working there was his daughter and he thought I was going to flirt my way into her life.
Anyways the Cheesecakes they had were in a fridge that made them a bit chilled. So I got it to go (along with a Key Lime Pie slice since they are a Key Lime pie company; it was meh but I don't have any sort of deep loving relationship with Key lime pie as I do with Cheesecake). When I got home I took the Cheesecake out and placed it on a plate to let it warm up a little. I took a bit and tbh it was pretty standard. You could taste the vanilla in it and the base was pretty smooth. But thecrust was non-existent and its consistency really felt like it was store bought. If they enhanced the crust I think I would like it more. But for now I group it with the average Cheesecake's of the world.
Overall Score: 7.8/10
P.S. Swiping on Tinder is more entertaining than swiping on Bumble. Take it from a pro.
