Is that a pizza? Honestly, it looks more like a thin-crusted coffee/chocolate tart?

It's being sold as "dessert pizza." It's in the crawl at the top.

It should be sold as desert pizza, as in you should only eat it if you’re starving to death in the desert.

Maybe. But Claire Saffitz's attempts to deconstruct various mainstream foods/treats were reasonably fun to watch. Too bad the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen video program broke down so badly because of discriminatory management issues.

Until Elon Musk's various improvements at Twitter, I hadn't seen an online property simultaneously implode and explode in quite so spectacular a fashion as Bon Appétit! And I liked several of their hosts!

It's one of those things that I hadn't heard about, and based on prior history ... I'm just not going to google.

The less you know about either, the less unhappy that knowledge can make you. You have chosen well.

I have seen some people argue in favor of some seriously stupid things on this site, but I think that is most seriously the stupidest.

Every time I see a thread full of people arguing about "combat as war vs combat as sport" I am filled with an overwhelming desire to actually understand what those terms actually need and why so many people seem to care so much about them.

The desire, thankfully, passes quickly.

The "combat as war" crew feel that fighting should only be a life-or-death, dramatic measure of last resort, and that's how it should be represented in play. They see the "combat as sport" crew as lacking a true understanding of stakes and narrative tension.

The "combat as sport" crew feel that fighting should be an opportunity for characters to display their skill and bravado, and do cool things, and that's how it should be represented in play. They see the "combat as war" crew as lacking a true understanding that this is a game and escapist fantasy.
