Hardboiled eggs are my favorite for easy protein. Sadly eggs are getting more expensive than they used to be, but for a small amount of effort to boil water, I can get something that just requires peel-and-eat for the next few days.

if God wanted me to run he wouldn’t have given me breasts.

To anyone self-conscious about their body, please know that nobody in the gym is judging you for how you look or how much weight you’re moving.

When I had braces as a teenager flossing happened exactly never, so good on you for making the effort.

I always heard that you should floss before brushing, because flossing loosens up stuff that the brush can then clear away.

Completely agreed, from my call center experience.

Another thing Mitt Romney has not done:

This Utah voter would absolutely love to have better, but alas, Republicans tend to be Republicans, and I live in a state where the majority walks into the booth on election day and just hits the “all Republicans” option on the ballot. :/

The problem with Google Authenticator is that if your phone is lost or stolen, you’ve just lost your 2fa verification - their help files claim that when you set it up on the new phone it’ll import all your old accounts, but it actually doesn’t, so you end up locked out of anything you had set up to authenticate with…

What, no KareKano? I’m surprised.

In your opinion? From what you’ve said here you pretty clearly don’t understand what’s involved in making a weighted blanket, so maybe you should look a little more into it before offering your “opinion” to people.

It’s more like a bunch of flat bean bags attached together, because weighted blankets have to have a bunch of small sections to keep the pellets inside evenly distributed. It’s a lot more complicated to make than it sounds.

Uh...I already said that I’ve made a weighted blanket. That’s how I know how very not easy it is.

It’s a pain in the butt, let me tell you. Especially when you’re more than halfway done and have to wrestle this heavy monstrosity around to get it positioned correctly in the machine.

Tied fleece blankets are really easy to make, yes. But saying that a weighted blanket is easy because tied fleece blankets are easy are kind of like saying that a ballgown is easy to make because pj pants are simple to sew.

I’m picturing the tenant I was talking to one time in the lobby of his apartment building who had a dozen bedbugs crawling out from around his shirt collar.

My parents are like that, too - they think 10% is good and will often deduct from the tip for such grievous sins as not refilling drinks within thirty seconds of them being emptied. When my siblings and I go to dinner with them we always surreptitiously leave cash and an apology note on the table.

Shipping is a lot, and so are the pellets that go in the blanket.

I made myself a weighted blanket and the materials alone cost $65. Also sewing them is a little more involved than just the standard tied fleece blanket (especially since tying a fleece blanket doesn’t include actual sewing).
