It would seem that the newly Comcast-owned Daily Candy is wasting no time in towing its parent company’s arch-conservative line, if only subconsciously. From this morning’s, erm, “people-watching” guide:

North Philadelphia
Norris & Frankford: Looking for a different kind of Pride Parade? Spend ten weekend minutes at this intersection and watch straight men riding tandem bicycles together, giving out smiles and honks for anyone brave enough to yell the obvious.

Penn Treaty Park: Come nightfall, Kensington couples whisper sweet nothings in each others’ ears as crack dealers and clients lovingly do the same.

Liberty Lands Park: Whether pushing a stroller holding an unnervingly attractive child or walking a freakishly ugly dog, hot moms gather here. Watch dudes flirt as husbands spy with one eye from a nearby McCondo (and do graphic design with the other).

I’m kind of thinking that Daily Candy and Comcast should bet each other one dollar at the Union League to see if they could take a NoLibs homo drug addict off the street (good luck finding one, trust us, we’ve looked) and see if he could trade places with Meredith Lindemon and see if we could settle this nature/nurture debate once and for all.
