Eggplant is the veggie that defines the line between those I like and those I don’t.

Recently went to Cava for the second time. The first time was years ago, shortly after they bought out Zoë’s. We weren’t impressed then, but decided to give them one more chance. All in all, the pita wraps my Mom & I had were tasty and did NOT skimp on ingredients, so that was a solid win...

I’m late to the chimichurri party, having only had it for the first time within the past 4 years or so. A good one can be a great pairing with beef, no question!

Apparently, the existence of drinking fountains in the UK waxes & wanes: https://theconversation.com/the-curious-history-of-londons-public-drinking-water-fountains-207453...

That is horrific! Especially since I have been seeing articles and CLE (continuing legal education) courses talking about using AI programs in your legal practice, even as I see increasing numbers of my colleagues getting sanctioned for citing nonexistent legal precedents. To be clear, that’s...

I very briefly had a mohawk my freshman year of college. Like, 10 minutes. I hadn’t managed to find a barber near campus (I had no car), and the high-top fade I got shortly before checking into the dorms was starting to look unruly. So I got out my clippers and started doing some...

As I recall, our ancestors survived a population bottleneck with something like only 10k individuals. The nukes thing would complicate matters, though…

I’ve lo I’ve looked into such hats. They range from $50-200, depending on a variety of factors.

Every problem is ALSO an opportunity. Check out Logan’s Run and Soylent Green for “modest proposals”!
