I saw this on a site (might have been Pinterest) last year and made one for my kitty. She loves it. Sometimes she won’t come out even if wet food/kitty treats are offered as an inducement.

I like this idea a lot. I’m a heavy Spotify user and I’m always looking for interesting playlists.

You must be so fun at parties...

Yeah, even a jumbo sized muffin tin well wouldn’t hold as much soup as I can eat.

You could also just lay out a sheet of foil or newspaper or something. Then at least you’d only have to clean the waffle maker and not the counter/table.

I’m excited about this, but at the same time, I don’t know if I can ever see anyone but Megan Follows as Anne. She was so perfect in that role that even now when I reread the books I picture her as Anne.

I have no interest in living in a mansion, having expensive cars, etc. I’d probably pay off my debt, buy a slightly nicer house free and clear (but nothing even approaching a mansion; more like a sweet 3 bedroom), help out my immediate family with their debt/education costs/living arrangements. The rest I would keep…

I just thought of something, and I’m not sure, it seems kind of controversial, but maybe, if some people can’t tolerate milk they themselves should not consume it and let other people do as they please. I know, INSANE, but what do you say? We could at least try it.

I’m just waiting for their YouTube show where they live their charmed white hipster christian lives in front of the camera until his profile on Ashley Madison Grindr gets hacked and they make a tearful joint video about “sin”.

A science teacher in high school told us that the best way to avoid getting shocked was to stomp your feet before you touch the car. I always try to remember to do it when I get out of the car and haven’t been shocked when I do. Not sure of the science behind it.

Oh god, I feel for you. I had an unfortunate and embarrassing incident in school once. My pants got caught on a metal railing and ripped and everyone saw my underwear. Doesn’t seem like a big deal now but to a 10 year old it was extremely humiliating. And to top it off a few weeks later, this little snot in my class…

My friend just had an abortion in North Carolina, which is just a hop skip away from Tennessee. It cost her about $500. To someone who is desperately poor, it might as well be $100k. And that was just the cost for the procedure. You have to take into account travel costs and time off work for people who don’t live…

To be fair, she is a liar, but not in the sense they probably mean. They mean it in the Benghazi/Emails of doom conspiracy sense. I mean it in the “pretends to be a liberal but really isn’t” sense.

I’m looking forward to more of these humorless diatribes against joke memes on the internet. Is this part of the new Gawker thing? “More angry posts about nothing of substance, less angry posts about shit that actually matters”.

Good advice, but be wary of going in the other direction. I know a few people who seem to always assume the absolute cheapest thing is the best value, and it’s not always. Sometimes it is worth it to pay a little more and get something that works better, lasts longer, or what have you. Sometimes things are cheap…

My mom always gave us lots of little presents, which was fun, because you had a lot to open, but it was all cheaper stuff so she didn’t break the bank (she couldn’t because we were poor). We would get pens, markers, coloring books, craft items, toiletries, socks, and things like that. However our dad’s mother would…

I haven’t tried it myself, but apparently some people have been able to make it by pouring the cream into a mason jar, screwing on the lid, and then shaking the bejeezus out of it. I think you have to be careful that you don’t go too far and make butter though.

No to mention that women are actively discouraged from being interested in anything science or tech related practically from infancy. One only needs to look at any toy aisle in any department store to see this. Just look at the toys specifically marketed to girls vs. the ones marketed to boys.

Her point is that even though she didn’t want to get pregnant just yet, she meant to get pregnant eventually, so this baby was planned for in the broadest of senses.

Totally agree with this article. I’m an introvert. I do find the vast majority of social interaction draining and being alone for awhile lets me replenish, but I still crave company and companionship, quite often. And yes, I am shy and reserved with strangers, but if I click with someone and they make me feel accepted…
