When I think of a crispy topping for mac and cheese, semi burnt dried out pasta is not really what I’m looking for. I always put buttered panko or crushed ritz crackers on top of mine. They get nice and brown and crisp in the oven. (Just pour melted butter on your crumbs, mix, and distribute evenly over your…

You used organic ketchup to clean a mug. Christ.

Homeless people have poor health because they are usually malnourished and suffering from untreated medical problems, which weakens their immune system. Also, they are exposed to hypothermia and extreme heat loss from sleeping in temperatures below 50 degrees. This advice advocates sleeping in a room that is just at…

How is it weird? If you cook meat at home will you refuse to eat the leftovers if they’re more than one day old?

I don’t get this. Surely the chicken wasn’t spoiled. It just wasn’t prepared that day. I’d rather have the grocery store turn it into chicken salad, chicken tenders, etc. and sell it rather than letting perfectly good food go to waste.

I posted this already up above, but:

To be fair, if you actually read the statement from the writer that this article is based on, at no point does he say that Xena will be a lesbian. All he says is that he will be fully exploring her and Gabrielle’s relationship in ways that couldn’t be done in the 1990's. It’s entirely possible that she will be bi. The…

It’s really kinda fucked up that you jumped right from “these characters will be gay in this tv show” to “these characters will be having naked explicit sex scenes”. Not that I, a queer woman, would mind at all having the latter, since our intimacy is so often played for the het male gaze or othered in some way, but…

Yeah I was confused by that one. Wouldn’t a “reverse French braid” be “unbraiding”?

Who cares if it’s “negligible”? The fact is that far more revealing ads air all the time. They are being subjected to an obvious double standard. If they are choosing to use that double standard to as much of their benefit as they can, great, but it doesn’t mean that it’s any less fair or any less damaging to fat…

I probably should have included this in my post, but there’s an intro video to get people started setting up NXT-OS that may be helpful to some people. If you have issues you can also ask questions about the suite at the Rainmeter subreddit. The creator of NXT-OS (as well as a bunch of other knowledgeable people)…

I don’t know about everything else, but it requires Rainmeter 3.2 or higher. It doesn’t seem to use that much RAM or CPU but I have 16 GB of RAM and a 3.4 Ghz quad core processor, so it’s not like I’d notice if it did. ;)

I think it does take a bit of fiddling if I remember correctly. Make sure you go into the settings and set everything up. On the settings panel there should be a General section. Click that, and pick your media player and set the same player for the auto visualizer. Then go back to the main settings panel and click…

Thanks for the feature!

I got this like last week. It seems to be a bit buggy. Several times I’ve hidden a button into the menu only to have it return to the toolbar the next time I open Chrome.

I would literally watch her read the phone book out loud on TV, so yeah, sign me up. She’s just ferociously talented. She deserves much more attention than she gets. She’s pretty much the best thing about Suits.

Yeah, look. I don’t know if what she did was manslaughter, but this is very strange. If this were a case where you had two very depressed people who were both suicidal and they were encouraging and/or helping each other to do it, I could kind of get that, and to me it would be inappropriate to charge one of them with…

I’m not a native southerner, although I do live in the south now. And I’m very skeptical of almost everything that commonly gets listed under “southern pride”.

I too am tired of this debate. The condescension on both sides has been ridiculous. I’m a Bernie supporter, but I don’t automatically assume that women voting for Hillary are voting just because of her gender. But honestly, even if that is one of their reasons for voting for her, I think that’s valid. I just don’t…

I actually made one of these for my cat and a) it really wasn’t that much work, and b) she loves it and stays in it all the freaking time. Your mileage may vary, of course. I do understand the concept of what you’re saying, because I’ve bought any number of fancy cat beds, shelters, and elaborate cat playgrounds and…
