Wowza. I asked the Chase PR team for comment on this issue yesterday, but haven’t heard back yet. Stay tuned, y’all. 

I love Seoul, was first introduced to city by my wife. We try and get back about every 5 years so not all of this is recent boots on the ground info.

I’ll be 38 this year, and personal investment couldn’t be more important. I’ve been really bad in the past about not taking care of my self, so self care figures into several below, but lots of areas have seen focus:

Favorite: Wegman’s, hands down. My kid is some weirdo milk snob, and will only drink their store brand and Trader Joe’s (he’ll drink Fairlife but I’m not paying that much for milk), so I have to go there anyway. The other store brand stuff is cheap and good, and I don’t feel bad splurging on the occasionally gourmet…

The problem is that the one type of pan that’s good for almost everything is also the one that’s ridiculously expensive (triple-ply, with either an aluminum or copper core), and everything else has drawbacks. Nonstick is fragile and shouldn’t be used at anything more than medium heat, cast iron’s seasoning can be…

Just say no to this set, at least as far as the frying pans are concerned. The impact-bonded stuff is TERRIBLE. Because the sides don’t heat up (steel doesn’t transfer heat like aluminum does), the food you cook won’t stick to the bottom, but it will stick like crazy to the sides. Either spend a little more and get a…

Thanks for this primer. There is a Korean grocery near me that I visit sometimes. I’ve tried some of the obvious stuff (japchae, bulgogi, kimchee) but I’ve alway been a bit overwhelmed and mystified by the seemingly endless variety of banchan available. All of these little bits of this and that in small packages. It…

During the heatwave in California this year, a buddy introduced me to naengmyun— it easily became one of my favorite dishes and we had it another six to eight times before things cooled off. It can be intimidating (especially when some places serve it with a chunk of ice to help cool it down), but it’s really, really…

A good follow up to this article is “When You Become a Parent to Your Parent”.

Minutes after posting this, I saw these google ads:

As an unroll.me user, I am probably going to delete me account today. I wouldn’t say this is shocking, but seeing that they are doing this so brazenly makes me question just how far they are willing to go.

Oh, I’m sure! I’m sure there’s oversimplification on both sides. However, every article or argument I’ve read from equal pay supporters acknowledges factors like the one Goldin mentioned. So the way I see it, at least, it’s sort of like, yeah, of course there are other factors to consider, that’s what we’ve been…

I agree with you that Americans seem to be behind when it comes to skincare. Recently I started learning more about Korean beauty products and I’ve tried a couple out (including the double cleansing method), and my skin looks so much better than it ever has.
