That’s not my experience, as a Blue Apron customer for many years. Most of the meals seem to require only one pan, or at most two. There’s some prep placement that makes the cooking part go more smoothly (like, putting some of the cut vegetables in a bowl while you’re cooking others) but that seems like more of a

Fondling a woman’s breasts when she is still alive doesn’t seem to be an offense that lands anyone in real trouble, so it’s difficult to believe there is any chance someone would prosecute this jerk for doing it to a dead person.

I’d like to share this comment along with his link, on my Facebook page, if you would permit me to? It is such a contrast. If you’re okay with that I will give credit to you or not, whichever you prefer. 

And then a few years from now, people will be asking, “Why did that kid run from the police, if he was innocent? If he would gave just trusted the system he wouldn’t have gotten shot.”

Which...may be exactly the problem. 

He didn’t spend time behind bars because he was guilty, he was awaiting trial. He was an innocent person stuck in jail. That’s not the way the law is supposed to work.

It sounds like you’ve already got a pretty decent handle on this, and going to therapy seems reasonable. But if you would like to read a book that might also give you a new perspective, this is a great one. It’s called, “You’re Wearing That? Mothers and Daughters in Conversation,” by Deborah Tannen. 

Same. I keep reminding myself about jokes like, “How do you know a vegan is in the room? Because she will tell you,” and I bite my tongue as long as I can. 

That is so infuriating - both the fact that current research shows that isn’t really accurate, and the condescending attitude.

There is also an iPhone app called Official Black Wall Street that will let you know when you’re near a black-owned business, or let you search.

Where did they say “all”? Step down. You are being intentionally obtuse.

That is awesome! My useless remembered detail is sort of similar. We had to type the alphabet forwards and backwards in typing class, and to this day I can recite it backwards with ease. It is actually easier to say backwards because of the way the syllables work out - like at the end, “FEDCBA” is way easier than

I thought my old boss made up the term “shucking” for when I gave him work. Is that actually a term? I’ve never heard anyone else use it.

Something that works for me to slow things down is to try to have new adventures. If I do new things that I haven’t done before, or go places I haven’t seen, especially if I do it over a weekend, it seems to last much longer.

That is such a great costume! I saw him another day dressed as, uh, Liam Neeson.

In the actual preview it has color. (And it was awesome.)

I set my phone to Do Not Disturb automatically from 10 pm - 7 amand it doesn’t keep the Sleep Cycle alarm from sounding. I imagine it would allow other alarm apps, too.

"Save As" .pps will make it open right in the slide show view, when you are sending it to people who you only want to view the slides.

I read something like this this a few years ago, and it is oddly satisfying to put into use. I haven't done it to knock down rates, but I have used it with someone I strongly disagreed with at work. The article I read made me realize I was putting myself in a weak position by constantly arguing my point so I stopped!
