  • I had a second-hand bread machine that served me very well for several years, until one day when it started vibrating like crazy and threw itself off the counter mid-knead. The whole lid smashed into about seven pieces and the dough went all over the floor. We still refer to it as “the time the bread maker committed suicide.”

    Anyway, that’s how I ended up making all our bread by hand for the next four years or so.




  • People don’t need to engage politically on every single platform they frequent. I’ve blocked a long list of political keywords, because 95% of the political content I see here is about a country I’m not from. Americans can scream at each other to their hearts’ content without my being obligated to participate or even observe.








  • Skunks are common city animals, so it’s a little more surprising to me that you haven’t encountered then before. But for the most part they’re pretty chill little guys, and forage widely – so seeing one in your yard doesn’t mean they’ve taken up residence. They eat grubs mostly (which is great for lawns and gardens).

    As others have said, as long as you’re not getting up in their faces, you shouldn’t have any problems.
