It’s still pretty common and it’s not that dumb. Washing machines can break down and flood and dryers emit carbon monoxide and pose a fire hazard. Putting them on the garage floor means they’re on concrete, away from sleeping humans and the dryer vent’s path to the outside air is short as possible.

“I don’t know him.”

A “hot dog” is the tube of meat that goes inside the bread, which could be eaten on a sandwich OR it’s the tube of meat in a bun, with toppings - the definition of a sandwich. Meat between bread plus toppings = sandwich. So it’s all of those things. Or none.

There there are nine dairy free, vegan flavors. There’s a store finder, scoop shop finder, or a link to all the third parties that deliver Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to your house’s (Like Amazon Fresh)

Anyway, here’s an article about Ben & Jerry acknowledging and speaking critically of their own white privilege: https://www.benjerry.com/whats-new/2018/07/ben-jerry-white-privilege

It’s gross and I’m sorry but... I’m glad this happened. I hope the taint keeps her off any blue 2020 ticket. There are leaders who inspire the people and shape the mission, and there are managers who carry out the mission. She’s the latter. I hope she stays in the trenches, doing God’s work because damn, that woman…

The allspice must flow.

All of this is GREAT. I have some notes:

But wouldn’t a smaller piece of glass be denser (and less likely to break)? I guess you’re still dealing a projectile, but at least it’s not shards of glass.

I would assume the batteries degrade over time, as well. Like with a cordless drill - if the battery costs *almost* as much as a new drill, you may as well treat yourself to a new drill.

I’m still really upset with Rowling’ embracing the wildly misinformed re-characterization of Remus Lupin from the film. She did it in support of an HIV charity, but I still can’t forgive her for supporting a hideous stereotype. (David Thewlis, who hadn’t read any of the books, made the decision as an actor to portray…

Conversely, "Die already, you dedicated sack of dust." 

My Explanation™: Rocket is a sentient, sapient being, just like you and me. He’s an adult - old enough to drink, hold down a job, and drive a spaceship (into another spaceship). He’s a person, made out of raccoon, and that’s horrifying.  

Good on you. Bats are awesome. They protect our crops and our dumb asses from horrible diseases by gobbling up the insects who destroy those crops and transmit those diseases. HOORAY BATS!

I miss it terribly, but I like to think I’m done for good (fingers crossed). My relationship with alcohol started when I was about 14 and it was never healthy or productive. It was my anesthetic of choice, against a number of traumas. But there are entire periods of my life that I don’t quite remember because I was…

Use your own judgement on whether food is okay to still eat, rather than the expiration date on the packaging (which is actually the date the item when the item can no longer be sold).

Got my icon right here.

Yes! Because those hostile people are also alcoholics and feel betrayed. I work in a VERY social environment with alcoholics in senior positions. When I decided to get sober (85 days, oof), I did receive a little push-back.

Protein shakes. They still count as a sweet, obviously, but with nutritional benefits. Blood sugar gets a little push and you’ll feel full, which will keep your hands out of the doughnut box.
