I certainly hope Lifehacker authors aren’t always “on.” It would be pretty insufferable to be constantly scolded that everything you were doing were bad for the planet or insensitive to some group, or constantly told how there were a slightly “better” way of doing every little thing you did.

Careful. The average last frost in Chicago is the middle of May. When she did baskets of annuals, Mrs Lizardo never planted them before Memorial Day.

I don’t know what culture requiring such rigorousness you people grew up in but if you must do this, why would you want to eat cold fries?

That’s a REAL good way to get a job.

French restaurant La Maison de la Poutine says that it’s been getting threats from people who think its namesake Canadian dish, poutine, is named after Vladimir Putin.

I think he has business cards that say "weirdly sarcastic about everything."

I think the academy is wrong to do this, but their reasoning is sound. The vast majority of viewers care about best picture and best lead/supporting actor/actress. Maybe best director. Otherwise they just watch to see pretty people in fancy clothes. They don’t care about editing, don’t know why there are two different…

Can’t wait to see the doll invade Ukraine.

You can buy cheesecloth pouches. 20 of them cost less than $10 on Amazon and they come in various sizes. They can be washed and reused, but it doesn’t hurt to throw them away after a few uses because they are cheap.  They are very useful for stuff like this and I find them a lot easier to work with than a tea ball.

It’s a blender, not a food processor. The blades don’t need to be sharp to do the job well as long as it has enough power to prevent jams. My Waring never had very sharp blades, and the blades remove easily anyway.

You can get that from the trailer. This review didn’t really add anything to that.

While you do need to correct moisture content, the problem is that the more you do it, the more you knead, and that makes gluten which makes the crust tough. One way around that is to replace some of the water with apple cider vinegar or vodka. You just need to replace a tablespoon or so in a double crust pie.

They air that way on AMC+. There was only one episode last week on cable AMC and episode 2 aired tonight. 

I'd say an invasion qualifies as a "serious border issue."

I believe Texas and Florida passed laws stating that it is illegal to remind the white people of those states that there are other Americas. It makes them uncomfortable.

That’s the recipe I use. The published version of his Red Beans & Rice is also what I use. It is different than the episode which I also just watched. The online recipe uses a smoked ham hocks and puts the andouille in the stew, not on top. It is really good and I am planning on making it next week.

Because the all time leader in ticket sales worldwide still seems to be Titanic, and the hype machine needs a new leader more often than once every 25 years. That’s why we get meaningful reports like “Alvin and the Chipmunks 6: Still Shrill so Chill, Phil! had the biggest weekend ever for a combination live…

Since we had never seen it, we almost watched it just a few days ago, but decided we would rather watch Encanto again. Had we known it was leaving, we probably would have watched Anastasia. I appreciate that Netflix tells you that a movie is going away soon.  We don’t have Starz.
