Agree. Sinamay is good too, which is what it looks like Markle’s hat/fascinator is made of.

If you show up at a table to get meal orders and your customers’ glasses are empty, it should be obvious to refill them.

Yes! The first question, do you know how much you spend on food? Why yes, I do, 40$ a week, 50$ if I am really being spendy. And that is for every bit of food I eat, I never eat out, and I make all my own meals, I don’t buy frozen dinners or takeout or anything.

That is not correct! Read the original article and the comments. That explains what happened.

Thing is though, you can “delete” those too. All she would have had to do is steal his mail. If he has a locking mailbox instead of an ordinary one, it’s only a little more work to steal and copy the key so she can get the mail before him.

I remember reading Solnit’s book, Men Explain Things to Me, and being blown away by one part in particular, a true story. I don’t remember it perfectly , but it went something like this.

I am so, so pissed right now. I wish I could Hulk-smash something.

Did you bother looking at the map at all? It’s not just Californian cities. There is no state in the country where the minimum wage is enough to rent an apartment and live on.

You realize your pay is way higher than minimum wage in every single state? And that moving costs money. And that it is really hard, even with another person, to afford a 2 bedroom apartment on minimum wage, and that occupancy laws prevent you from sharing with as many people as necessary to make it affordable?

Thank you for slapping these jerks with some numbers. This work your way up stuff is such bs. People don’t think and realize that even if all minimum wage workers work their way up, who the heck is gonna take their places???

You realize minimum wage is far, far below that right? Until we get robots to be waiters and sales associates and cashiers and stockers and do EVERYTHING ELSE minimum wage people do in this country, we are going to have to pay those adults a living wage.

YESSS! My area has this exact problem. There are tons of apartments between the towns (which surround a big city), they offer two car spaces in the garage for every renter, gym and pool and hot tub access 24/7, etc. In towns you can get a small 1 bedroom for $1,000 a month, with no perks. But don’t even try getting a…

So I thought this was a ridiculous claim until I read the linked article. The cart actually hit her!! This article doesn’t make that clear, I would think a metal grocery cart falling from that height would def kill someone, so I thought she jumped out of the way or it just missed her.

I’m honestly worried about this kid. From his description of her diet she is almost certainly malnourished.  

I was reading a great book “Kitchen Counter Cooking School” and in it a pediatrician tells the author’s friend that her kid is both malnourished and overweight and that he has been seeing more and more kids like that.

That’s an interesting anecdote (not being sarcastic), but at least one study that I know of has shown that your tastes are probably “set” in childhood. So if you get a ton of sugar as a kid, that’s what you want. It’s like how people get used to salt in their food, adjust and stop tasting it, add more and more as they…

This is where I think Pollan’s food rules are handy. Even though now it’s more like “don’t eat anything your (or someone’s) great-great grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food”.

Uh, maybe because dolphins are super intelligent, like cats, dogs, primates, parrots, etc, and tuna are dumb as f*ck? If plants were super smart and able to communicate with us and had families we probably wouldn’t eat them either. But they aren’t. And tuna aren’t far above plants as far as brainpower goes. But cats…

This is bullshit. There are very few problems that money can’t solve. Kate Spade, from what I have read, refused to get treatment. Unlike the vast majority of people though she HAD A CHOICE. There are people dying of completely treatable illnesses who want help but can’t PAY for it.

A lot of people don’t realize how incredibly intelligent orcas are, they also don’t realize how small those tanks really are. Think about how small the tank is in comparison to the orca. Think about how many body lengths it is in comparison for example. Would you keep an innocent person in basically solitary…
