I’ve never been a fan of the word “tattling.” Maybe because my Northeast Ohio accent really extenuates the hard “a” sound, making the word itself sound almost as annoying as the practice. tAAAttling.

In a perfect world, we’d all own beautiful, huge, cutting boards carved from free-range trees, complete with grooves around the edges to catch any runoff that may occur while carving meats. But hell is empty, the devils are here, and my cutting boards are groove-less.

Now that every person on earth has a podcast, you can find one for any topic or need—in fact you can pick your favorite from a whole roster.

Happy election day! Everybody is hungry for democracy, which means they’re probably hungry for literal food, too. The voting lines this evening will be long and you might need sustenance. Why not order some pizza? You won’t even have to pay for it!

Dungeons & Dragons is as intimidating as it is freeing. On one hand, you have a game that’s only limited by your imagination—and a big book o’ rules, which you’re free to disregard as you see fit.

With two secret (some would say…

Happy Election Day, America. The 2018 midterm elections are here, and if you want to follow along on something a bit more reputable than social media, news orgs are dropping paywalls and allowing people to watch results without cable logins.

But that’s okay—whether you voted early, mailed an absentee ballot, or your neighborhood poll workers ran out of…

For the past several years, Apple has offered Live Listen as a way for hearing-impaired users to turn their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch into a remote microphone that connects to a hearing aid.

You voted. Great! That’s pretty much the base level of participation in a democracy! Which might be why you still feel anxious and relatively powerless. What do you do next? How do you get more politically involved, especially if you don’t have a lot of time or money?

I’m an ISFP, according to a test I took this morning. Or going by the one I took years ago, an INFP who is “turbulent” and may get a different result each time. The Myers-Briggs test is a fun way to spend an hour in self-absorption, but a terrible way to make decisions that affect somebody’s livelihood.

There’s no shortage of things that can go wrong when you’re traveling: You might lose your debit or credit card; your purse could get swiped; your phone could fall down a grate in front of your hostel (yes, this happened to me).

There are so many different ways to be a dick: from being a schoolyard bully, to not mowing your lawn, to using plastic straws, to being a dick on the road. In this episode, we’re going to talk about some of the little ways we can be good to one another, to the environment, and by extension, to ourselves.

If you are physically unable to reach the polls or face extra challenges due to a disability, there are still ways to make sure your vote is counted.
