The first time I saw a wild bird indoors, at my grandma’s house, I was so excited because I wanted to keep it. The grownups, meanwhile, were in a slight panic. Everybody in the house was in the room with the bird, gawking at it, hotly debating the best way to evict it. And the bird flapped around looking more and more…

It is a well-established fact that starting your day with a salad makes you morally superior to everyone around you in every way, but weekday mornings are simply not the time for rinsing, chopping, and dressing a pile of vegetables.

The average person spends 90,000 hours of their life at the office, and yet only one-third of U.S. employees are engaged in their work and workplace, according to a 2017 Gallup report. Maybe that’s inevitable, but making our work and careers even slightly more satisfying and fulfilling could lead to a major overall…

Great stuff coming to Netflix this month: About a Boy, Billy Elliot, Jaws, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, more Chef’s Table, and the Mexican edition of Nailed It! Great stuff to watch before it leaves: Children of Men, Clerks, The Big Lebowski, The Bourne Ultimatum, and Shaun of the Dead. I think I watched all of these on a…

“What is the most effective psychological ‘trick’ you use?” asks redditor PM_ME_UR_PUPPYDOGS. In a thread that’s still going strong, people are answering. Here are our favorites so far. We’ll start with a devious one from redditor usrnmtkn1:

When you move into a new property, you’re probably just one of many residents who’s lived there over the years. And that means there are some safety (and hygiene) hazards that should be addressed as soon as you’ve moved into a new place.

I’m always appreciative when a calendar app makes it a little easier to schedule events. And in a number of apps, you’ll find that the developer has assumed you’re going to be planning meetings, get-togethers, and other fun hangouts on the hour—or if not, at some time that either ends in a “5" or a “0.”

When we asked you to nominate your choice for the very best work mouse, the Anker Ergonomic Mouse was one of your top three picks. And right now, there’s a coupon to bring it down to just $10.

It should be a crime for any computer to ship with a spinning hard drive. Why manufacturers continue to do so, despite the dropping prices of SSDs, astonishes me. But, of course, you can correct this wrong-doing.

SSDs are more reliable and much, much faster than the traditional (see: antiquated) HDD. Both Crucial’s 2.5"

January, with its focus on Getting Things Done, continues apace and perhaps you’ve recently undertaken, say, a clean out of your dresser drawers. That is a very good start-of-year thing to do! As a result, you might be thinking to yourself that you need some new organizing solutions for small items like socks,…

The 2017 Tax Cuts & Jobs Act changed a number of things about the tax code, including how much some people should withhold from their paychecks. Lifehacker gave a few warnings to adjust your withholdings in 2018 lest you get hit with an under-withholding penalty this tax season, but if you didn’t, there’s less reason…

I live with four other people, three of them cranky children. If I need to get up early, I want to sneak out of the house without anyone else waking up. But if I set a quiet, subtle alarm, then I’ll ignore it, too.

This is one hell of a How I Work. Economist Ben Ho studies things like apologies, trust, and inequality from an economic perspective—the kind of approach that makes a good NPR story.

If you’ve been hoarding those Gymboree gift cards, waiting for the perfect moment to splurge on some new styles for your kids, now is the time to use them up.

Of all the mindless tasks that make up any DIY project—turning screws, hammering nails, measuring things—sanding wood is indisputably the most unpleasant. It takes forever, you get splinters, and your arm feels like it’s going to fall off for days afterwards.

Eggs and cheese are two of my favorite foods, and I spend a lot of time and brain power coming up with ways to combine them. Blending cheese into the eggs, cooking eggs in piles of cheese, and folding eggs around cheese are all cherished practices of mine, and this omelette utilizes all three.
