“Definitively proving” masks “work” to slow the spread of Covid would be unethical. All we can do is rely on what data we do have available, all of which shows that masks seem to be effective at reducing transmission. On the other hand, there is zero downside to you wearing a mask, unless you are one of the very rare…

Wear a mask you fucking clown. I’m surprised a science denier even knows what an app is. Go actually read some scientific literature you imbecile.

The Jones Soda debacle was the first thing I thought about when I saw the headline. I guess it worked as a gimmick to draw attention to their brand, but the actual products were hideous. Even hitting the right flavor notes accurately didn’t change the fact that NOBODY wants a gravy-flavored soda! 

Starred for Peter, Ray and Egon!

I’m glad you said something, because the same thing was bothering me almost subliminally, and now I too am at peace.

I work in stacks maintenance and I want to marry that video.

How about instead we read these stories to our children and have conversations with them about we deem right or wrong about the story.

To be fair that would not be good for long-term storage. No library would ever think about using something like that. Let the worst Sherlock Holmes you will ever see explain: (you might want to be high while watching this)

FIONA SHAW I’M SO IN

This looks like well-dressed oatmeal (no disrespect to K S-T).

I don’t understand why they have to re-make this. The original was perfect.

It's going to take 50 years to undo the past 4.

This was what my mother made us for lunch regularly. Neither of us were particularly picky eaters or anything, but it was an easy thing to get together - some cheese, dried or fresh fruit (sometimes a little of each), some chopped up crunchy stuff (celery, carrot slices), some other vegies we could eat raw like…

I agree! My kid (well, a recent college grad, so no longer a “kid”) and I were just talking about this recently— his favorite childhood meals were what we always referred to as “pick up dinners,” meaning veggies and hummus, sliced cheese, and sometimes some pepperoni or salami, prosciutto, etc., fruit and any small…

This was always my ‘rescue’ dinner for the kids when I worked full time & wouldn’t get home until 5-6pm. Sometimes it included a bit of leftovers from the night before. My (now adult) girls fondly remember them and asked recently about what we called the surprise plates.

Actually, you REALLY need an attorney to draft the agreement and guide you how to properly implement this. It’s really, really easy to do it incorrectly. Or to have the agreement and to implement it in a way that causes penalties.

In-home care is domestic employment, so people receiving pay in exchange for providing care to family members also need to be aware of Unemployment Insurance tax requirements which vary from state to state. Most states have exceptions in certain cases, but it depends on the relationship between the caregiver and the…

For slightly newer, as I’m unsure of what constitutes “Classic” movies, check out Paper Moon and The Last Picture Show.
Night of the Hunter is so damn good though.  

As a teacher, I’m praying for an all virtual return, though I know it won’t happen. I teach in a private school (because I just finished my PhD and couldn’t stand the thought of going through more coursework yet to get my teaching license). Our parents are demanding their kids go back to school. Our classrooms are…
