“If I cook nicer meals at home, we’ll eat out less,” I told myself. And at first, we did. But then 24-month parmesan and Serious Eats recipes became the norm. And then, of course, you need better wine. You can’t have a great meal and cheap wine. Read more

IDK how y’all decide which old articles get placed atop the home pages of each site, but this one needs to see the light again.

I’ve been commenting on Lifehacker articles for like 8 years straight and they never once offered me a job. One comment and Layf Haker wants me? Read more

None of these hakes worked for me. I now have holes in my cardboard box, a burnt tongue encased in plastic, and Sara has a restraining order against my robot. Read more

I’ve heard they’ll let just about anyone write here now. Read more

I mean, I completely get where they’re coming from, they want to offer ad-free software that doesn’t collect/sell data. If you want a service like that, you should be willing to pay for it. I think Evernote could have gone about this whole process a little better, but I also think it’s important to pay for the… Read more

I liked Blue Apron but loved HelloFresh. And you are so spot on with the “What’s for dinner?” question. I feel like it happens so often it’s like voter fatigue.

Holy. Crap.
I’ve been using filters and labels in order to organize things. Skipping the inbox and other tools have been my “go-to’s” and I’ve had a difficult time keeping up with my inbox because of the division between Inbox and All Mail.

This is one reason the "smog" of racism continues . Because some people are either uncomfortable acknowledging what most black people experience, or… Read more

My wife was pregnant with our first of many progeny and she asked me "what are you going to get me for mother's day?" My sharp wittedness, extensive education and logic generated the response "Nothing, you're not a mother yet." Now it was a true statement but a very very wrong answer and one that I have lived with… Read more
