But it’s not stale? It’s not dry? I mean, it’s not as good as fresh, but for mass-produced sandwich bread, even of a decent quality, it’s not significant enough of a difference for me to sacrifice it staying fresh longer.

I’m certain it’s a climate thing. I don’t really have a problem with bread getting hard or stale in the refrigerator. If I left bread in a bag on the counter, I’d have maybe 24 hours until mold grew. In a bread box? Maybe longer, but it would still start molding pretty quickly.

I got a positive with the Clearblue digital the day after I should have gotten my period. They just suggest you take it when you first get up to pee in the morning, since it’s more concentrated then.

Navy was rescuing people from rooftops in Beaumont yesterday.

The Obamas still live around the corner. I imagine it helps.

Was the driver the one to bring this to light? I hope so. I hope these shitheels learn that they’re not going to find quarter for their racist good-ol’-boy bullshit just because they’re talking to a white person. And I hope white people expose these encounters, because it’s the only way they can even begin to fix some…

Charles Shaw sucks. The many $5-7 Spanish wine offerings at Trader Joe’s, though - hell yes.

It’s also excellent for splitting with a significant other on a weeknight when you don’t want to kill a whole bottle.

Even just hearing about this movie when I was 6 years old fucked me up - I overheard my parents talking about it in detail and it was the first step in several years of nightmares about nuclear annihilation.

That’s a really fun Kinja glitch - refreshing the page makes starring work again, but it seems staying on a page for a while means it starts doing that at some point.

My dad had a copy of the graphic novel that I read when I was 7 or 8 (in 1984 or 85) that was pretty much responsible for my sense of existential dread in my 80s childhood.

Just looked that one up - motion picture debut of William Daniels and Estelle Parsons? Damn, I’m intrigued.

I know that Bezos was willing to run Amazon at a loss for years to try to get deeply entrenched, while the guy running WF is an asshole Ayn Randian who violated securities law by posting in internet communities to say competitor Wild Oats was overvalued when WF was trying to acquire it (to try to lower the price). My…

I got better at head once I stopped trying to do what Dan Savage called the “Winged Victory” blowjobs (no hands). I’ve had three different men in the last few years (all fairly experienced) tell me I give the best head they’ve ever had (and I definitely use my hands). Develop your instincts and your strengths, and…

I also think you sometimes see, with people who are trying to be “white allies,” that maybe they actually *do* do some things (let’s say, they do all of them once), and then find, whoops, racism hasn’t been solved yet! You can work and work and work and work at this, and it can feel like it’s for nothing, because it’s…

I will say that I wouldn’t think Obama would have rushed down to Texas, because he was smart enough to know that, five minutes after a serious natural disaster, nobody needs to be dealing with Secret Service and staging and photo ops. He would have focused on what was going on, however, and he probably wouldn’t be…

I feel like Tangerine Dream’s soundtrack was a hair’s breadth less jarring but, yeah, no argument from me otherwise.

That Marcia Belsky tweet has had me cackling all day. I keep singing it in my head and then laughing out loud. I was honestly worried it was going to pop into my head during a meeting.

Damn it, this seems like the sort of thing that should be at AFI Silver. But as others note, it’s not going anywhere particularly predictable.
