You posted this a year ago, but too bad, here I am, bustin in here like the koolaid man.

I had one of these for years and LOVED IT. It was the 2 slice toaster, 1 egg poacher, also by West Bend, and apparently they discontinued that model. I actually bought a toaster oven this weekend, because they discontinued it and I

Frozen waffles with yogurt is one of my easy breakfasts I’ve done since childhood. I don’t eat it every day, but I always come back to it. Total bummer. It feels almost healthy, but I guess it's not even a little...

A friend of mine studied abroad in Spain, and also just immediately lost a ton of weight. Said they ate just a ton of fresh food there. Something about anecdata, but there does seem to be something here, doesn’t there?

Oh gosh I didn’t know there were different cursive systems. I learned cursive in the third grade, and was told, in no uncertain terms, that I would have to use it for everything for the rest of my life. Then I went on to fourth grade and largely never used it again. I developed my own signature — mostly real cursive,

The trailer made me think big and beautiful, so that's what I'm going with. My important question: do I need to watch the 2014 one first? Or uh have any background aside from wanting to watch big monsters, plus Millie Bobby Brown?

A game like Wordscapes is my actual bedtime story. Sometimes I’ll also listen to a chill podcast for a little while (LeVar Burton Reads, anyone?) but laying in the dark playing a few rounds of a word game with a screen darkening app and I’m out like a light. I’m sleepy just thinking about it. Just the perfect amount

I’m not sure whether they tweak the randomizer or not, but they don’t need to. There’s a reason people play slot machines. Skinner boxes; random rewards are addictive and do weird things to our lizard brains. The right level of randomness can make it feel like skill instead of luck, and makes it satisfying to win, and

I have some JBuds Airs I got on Black Friday last year for the same price as these. JLabs won’t support them since I don’t have my receipt, but they have a known issue with disconnecting when nothing is playing (“earbuds joined” alert plays every 10-15 seconds after my podcast runs out). I might have to get in on this.

Tyrion having a quiet conversation with his sister from the ground, while she was up on the wall, without any shouting, took me right out of it lol. I also had a feeling he wasn’t going to survive the scene... and then he did.

I was all doom and gloom last week, but this week was really everything I wanted last week’s episode to be. So many of the little reunions that got rushed through with little fanfare got their actual payoffs this week.

My impression is not that he can *see* the future, but that he can see so much, and has so much information, that he can extrapolate at least some of the future. And maybe that he glimpses bits of the future.

Yes! My eyes tend to glaze over during drawn out action scenes. I'm much more invested in the emotional payoffs.

I can’t help but feel that what made the early show so compelling was the slow burn. The show (and the books it was based on) took its sweeeeeeet time, developing characters, planting seeds, delaying payoffs, and hitting us out of left field with “hey you know those characters we’ve been building up for ages? Just

I keep a dog hammock in my back seat. Bully mix of some sort, and she slobbers like a full blooded bulldog. She gets so excited at the dog park she blows bubbles. I've just resigned myself to slobber everywhere until it's time to trade in the car, hahaha

Tired, maybe? I dunno, I’m always suuuuper careful with my CPUs. They’re expensive, and delicate. If I’m not at least a bit anxious while applying thermal grease, I’ve become too complacent, and someone should come slap me to get the adrenaline rushing back in.

I guess the only kind we get here is the kind that ships well :C

I haven’t traveled internationally yet, but I when I went to Maui for a week (the closest I’ve been to out of the country lol, I’m working on it, I have a passport), the regular-ass grocery store the locals shopped at was king. The groceries were still absurdly expensive, like 2-3 times what I pay at home, but it let

It’s so hard to empathize with a car, it’s so easy to be mad at a faceless stranger for being such an asshole. As soon as you put a face to the person behind the wheel, they’re easier to empathize with.

I try to remember that most people — not all people, not always, sometimes people are just assholes and I acknowledge that, but most people — are doing their best. Just like you are.
