When I woke up Sunday morning, I decided to be a good daddy and take my daughter to the movies. “We’ll see that live action Dora the Explorer movie,” I told my wife. “She’s been asking me to take her.” “Great,” my wife, said. “Keep her out of here for a while. I’ve got so much to […]

Alexandra Savior “Bad Disease” Alexandra Savior belongs to a long tradition of torch singers, but the sound and lyrical concerns of “Bad Disease” place her in the overlap of a Venn diagram of Portishead and Lana Del Rey. I know it can read like a backhanded compliment to say an artist sounds like two others, […]
It’s true: I’ve dragged my feet over writing a guide to what I keep in my “pantry” (I don’t have a pantry) and fridge for 14 years now. I have my reasons, primarily that I’m not sure I know what your kitchen needs. I mean, shouldn’t you stock the stuff you need for what you’ll want to cook and not some arbitrary list from a lady who loves Triscuits? Maybe you don’t love Triscuits! (Sorry you’re so wrong.) The idea of buying a kitchen full of someone else’s groceries is very much against the way I think anyone should shop. I know your kitchen will grow organically, and accurately reflect what you need if you buy things for what you want to cook as you want to cook them. Second, due to the nature of my work here I have an absolutely unusual amount of stuff in my kitchen cabinets and fridge. It’s totally justified for me, while making little sense for others. On the flip side, I live in NYC and have grocery stores and Greenmarkets quite close, but also as a small kitchen with very few cabinets, meaning that not only can I not stock very much at a time, I don’t need to — I can always dash out for vinegar or dried pasta. This is not the way most people shop.
From that initial cold forkful to just the right amount of cheese, we’ve settled it – this is how you should be enjoying your beans
Forget whether the dress was blue or white, or if there was room for Jack on that floating debris – the most heated debates of our generation revolve around food. Does the jam or cream go on a scone first (and how do you pronounce scone)? Does pineapple belong on a pizza? And should your Heinz ketchup be kept in the fridge? (For the record: jam then cream; rhyme it with “gone”; certainly not; and yes, definitely. Glad we cleared that up.)
But few foods have triggered so many lengthy debates as the satisfyingly saucy baked bean. A British icon, the fierce loyalty these delicious legumes stir up is unparalleled. Which is the best bread to put them on? Is it OK to eat them cold? And should they really be touching other food on the plate? We’re here to solve these saucy conundrums once and for all. (Please note: the editor’s decision is final.)

That's why we had to share with you these tiny crochet cat couches created by the crafty people on the subreddit r/crochet.
Sure, you could go and just buy a cat bed without exerting much effort, but they're not as fun or cute as this too cute to handle cat couch.
So, if you're looking for a new crochet project to tackle, this has got to be it!
The couches are shaped with thick foam and polyester filling to really give it that comfy sofa look.
There are a few craft stores online who are offering the crochet patterns if you like.

I was watching his old vlogs he did, from like 4 years ago
it got me thinking
So i was watching one of his streams earlier and someone mentioned how BVB and him have inspired them to start playing guitar, or bass, or whatever and he said something like "you guys say that we inspire you and that amazes me. See, if you really get after this and do a lot with this, you can inspire the next generation, and they inspire the next generation, and so on." and it just got me thinking because like, i wrote a song, yall saw Raise Hell (if you didnt self promo here it is https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/raise-hell-3517406 ) and I really like the whole sound i have planned for it. But see i dont ahve anything to put that sound in it other than my voice and shitty programs that my Chromebook allows but now i really really want to like, start a band or at least start sharing shit ive made.
My dad has a bass guitar in his garage and he said he'd clean it up and let me use it and now i want to do that. I gotta stick with it though.
I randomly get inspiration to write a song or a melody and sometimes ill just start recording and let shit flow and usually it isnt good but like, sometimes it is. Trial and error.
Raise hell was just an awesome thing that came to mind almost fully put together. I had the chorus and the intro playing in my head before they were written.
The rest just pulled together as i was typing the lyrics down.
Im watching this video and he walked up to the stage and its fucking huge. I know what being up on a stage like that feels like, though technically not as a show. It was just hype at the end of a stay away camp week.
Still.
I liked that feeling. It was terrifying as all fucking hell but like as soon as i got my ass over the stage fright and actually danced to the music playing i was losing my fucking mind.
It was so fun and so cool and such an amazing feeling.
I really want to get out there
I want to play music
I want to show off my art
I want to express myself and let other people see it.
I couldnt fucking care less about what people think of me. Honestly. As long as i have those few good friends i know wont leave me, Im good.
I really, really reallly really want to be up on a stage, singing my fucking heart out to a song i wrote and hearing people sing it back to me.
Its not even the self-hype or whatever its called, its just the yearn to share the shit ive made.
I really want that.
I want that so badly.
Now I just gotta figure out how the hell to do that.
Hugh Weber shared a Twitter thread about his 11-year-old's wild ride with the USPS, and it seems to convey a deeper message. Maybe it's a message that the beauty of humanity itself escapes through human beings' vulnerability. Brace yourself, cause this thread has been known to get the feels train rolling.
Man, we love the Scottish Twitter. It's clearly the best Twitter. One can really get a taste for the Scottish culture through their tweets. It's particularly fun to read the tweets out loud. If you really commit to it, you might actually sound Scottish for a hot second. While, of course, you have no idea what you're saying.
Man, you can just feel the energy of the awk being channeled in this quick Twitter thread. Real or not, just picturing this girl trying to live tweet, and then live tweeting herself into an awkward situation, is gold in and of itself.
This video is an oldie but goldie. Joseph Gordon-Levitt turns the tables on the paparazzi that were bombarding him with cameras and questions. It's a curious thing to see how the paparazzi react when being fed a ration of their own medicine. It's almost as if they don't like it, like really don't like it.
While we don't always have the intended answers, we can at least be smart asses about things. Technically correct jokes have the benefit of making the teller feel smart while there's not really any new information needed. These silly puns and clever jokes are technically accurate, so you can't say they're completely wrong.
Graham doesn't play by the rules. Clearly, Graham is busy enjoying life to the fullest. We just need to make sure that Graham doesn't get behind the wheel after knocking back all that Coors.

Two young people describe how the coronavirus pandemic and the lockdown have affected their mental health.
A group of citizens under Environment Life, which works towards cleaning up waterfalls and the space around them, in Mumbai and surrounding areas has cleaned up the waterfalls at Kharghar Driving Range.
The clean-up drive, dedicated to martyred Major Kaustubh Rane, and as a mark of respect for all security forces, was titled 'Waterfall Cleanup Drive VII: Kachare se Azadi' and organised on August 15 from 9 am to 12 pm. To support this cause, the group was joined by retired Air Force sergeant Subhashish Sarkar.
During the drive, the group of 45, aged between six and 70, managed to clear about 230 kg waste from the hill and waterfall area. Till now, Environment Life has carried out such drives at 12 locations, clearing seven tons of garbage left behind by tourists and visitors. Out of the total amount of garbage dumped by picnickers at waterfalls in that area, 150 kg is plastic — plates, spoons, water bottles, wafer packets, carry bags, etc.

Singer Sonu Nigam has been trending all through Tuesday, but for all the wrong reasons. A tweet that he posted three years ago suddenly resurfaced on social media drawing online ire. A section of the media even erreonously reported that the singer has been forced to deactivate his Twitter account owing to the cyber onslaught.
The truth is Sonu had deleted his Twitter account long ago, in 2017, after facing massive trolling over tweet comments he had made back then criticising the 'azaan'. He has never been back on the social media microblogging site, though he does have an Instagram account.
Sonu is currently in Dubai, and has not been able to return to India because the lockdown happened. However, the actor posts pictures and videos on Instagram. Sonu's controversial tweets had come around this time in 2017 and a section of the Twiteratti, probably without checking the date, posted screen shots of the old tweets. These screen shots started going viral on Tuesday.
Some of Sonu's fans feel the three-year-old tweet is being resurrected in order to harass the singer in Dubai.
"Wish he hadn't deactivated his account. I fully support him. #WithYouSonuNigam" wrote a fan.

As data security concerns on Facebook and WhatsApp loom large, Twitter is reportedly working on a 'Secret' encrypted messages feature which could make the microblogging platform safer for sensitive communications.
With this feature, Twitter is expected to roll out options about encrypted messaging like starting a secret conversation and viewing both sides of the conversation for encryption keys to verify a secure connection, TechCrunch reported on Monday.
The encrypted Direct Message (DM) option was first spotted inside Twitter for APK that contains codes for unreleased features that companies are testing.
Instant messaging app WhatsApp uses "end-to-end encryption" in all conversations. This can be opted into Messenger.
End-to-end encrypted messages are secured with a lock and only the sender and recipient have the special key needed to unlock and read them.
For added protection, every message sent has its own unique lock and key. No one can intercept the communications.
Last week, WhatsApp co-founder and CEO Jan Koum quit reportedly "after clashing with its parent, Facebook, over the popular messaging service's strategy and Facebook's attempts to use its personal data and weaken its encryption".

Washington: Twitter is reportedly testing a new feature on its Android app that makes messaging secure with end-to-end encryption.
Called 'Secret Conversation', the feature is expected to be available in the conversation info section in direct messaging of the Twitter app on Android, Mashable reports.
As users seek more security, end-to-end encryption has become a new mandate for messaging apps. The technology makes it difficult for snoopers to access or intercept messages which are exchanged between two parties.
NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden had asked Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey for such a feature on the platform a year ago. It remains to be seen when the end-to-end encryption is officially rolled out.
