  • Yes, quite a lot actually!

    I know this is hard to believe for people who only hear stereotypes about our state, but New Jersey has a lot of natural beauty. Northwest NJ and the Delaware Water Gap area have a lot of beautiful forested areas, and the Delaware River is so crisp and clear up there. Great for kayaking and tubing! All along the Delaware in Central NJ there are cute river towns like Frenchtown, Stockton, Lambertville, and Washington's Crossing. These are really cute little downtowns with bars & restaurants, shops, and live entertainment. Plus with Lambertville there's New Hope right across the bridge. We have farmstands with fresh Jersey corn, tomatoes, and peaches all over the place (remember, we're the Garden State!), plus loads of local wineries. The Pine Barrens are beautiful for hiking and biking. Then we've got the shore. I will grant that NJ beaches don't hold a candle to some other places further south along the eastern seaboard (though I will say that the beaches with tags are a pretty good experience), but you don't really go down the shore just for the beaches. You go for the boardwalks, plus the casinos in Atlantic City. We also have Great Adventure, which I think every Jersey kid grows up going to.

    And we have pork roll, the best breakfast meat ever.

    So yeah, come check us out. You might be surprised!

  • Hey different strokes for different folks ¯(ツ)_/¯

    But personally I love her. Tough as nails, hardened but hopeful. Actually a reasonably well written woman in scifi, which in the '90s was pretty rare.

    So of course over the years her uniform became a catsuit (obligatory "fuck you, Rick Berman").

  • By the time NYE rolls around, I'm tired of festivities, not just because my social battery gets deleted, but also because the food served at gatherings really sets off my IBS. This time of year I opt out of as much holiday stuff as I can without upsetting anyone, and I almost never do anything special for the new year.

  • I was curious so i just checked. Assuming the drink is water and there's no dipping sauce or sauces added to the burger, it comes to 760 calories (macros are 44g fat, 63g carbs, 31g protein). That's definitely more than half of my daily calories, but I'm a middle-aged 5'0" lady. Still, that's a huge amount of fat, and surprisingly little protein!
