Depending on how old they are, chances are you’ve developed a proper rejoinder to nearly every situation. Yet there are some moments you’re not…

I have been trying to get better at avoiding pantry redundancy. I rarely buy two of the same exact product, but I will buy multiple items that are in the same category, for the sake of variety. I’ll buy Duke’s mayo when I already have Hellman’s, or bucatini even though I already have spaghetti, or tortilla chips when…

When you’re heading camping, to the beach, or on vacation, you want convenience. You also want to eat off clean dishes. Packing a bottle of dish soap when you travel anywhere is a hazard because it could spill, leaving you with a mess and a lack of necessary suds. (You could try the plastic wrap hack here, but even…

It’s pretty hard to break into a locked iPhone without without knowing the passcode. But what if your iPhone is stolen while you’re using it? You can make a few changes to protect your iOS data from thieves, but most of those tricks won’t work if your phone is already unlocked. But if you own an Apple Watch, you can…

If you’re in the habit of visiting r/aww for cute pet videos, or r/todayilearned to have your mind blown, the upcoming Reddit blackout might put a wrench in your plans. On June 12-14, thousands of subreddits have committed to going dark to protest a Reddit company decision.

The forces of Good and Evil are really battling it out this week for cultural supremacy.

On the dark side, there’s the rise of Baby Gronk, a 10 year-old athlete/internet star. Embodying both…

So you’d be forgiven for making like a lazy college student and turning to artificial intelligence to help you out,…

I don’t claim to be a great authority on bagels. I wasn’t even aware they existed until I moved from Aberdeen, Mississippi to Los Angeles at the tender age of six.

To a greater or lesser degree, every job has its boring or frustrating moments, but if you find yourself consistently…

But now that much of the United States has been covered…

A college degree is no guarantee of a high-paying job, but it can certainly help, as can trade skills that enable you to jump into into a field like plumbing or electrical. But what can you do if you have a high school (or equivalent) degree and no specific skills, experience, or certifications? How can you make a…
