Last weekend we bought our cat a harness so she could take walks outside with us. She always begs to go, but we worry about her getting far and hit by a car or lost. We have been taking her out and just holding her, so we decided to try the harness.
My teenager and their friends are all going on about cursed images, which are nothing new; they've been around for a few years and have even become memes in the process. But I can't get any of them to actually describe what makes them so "cursed."
Season 18 of Family Guy resumed last night with its 16th episode, "Start Me Up," in which we encountered Peter's sweating problem, among other things. In true Family Guy fashion, the show took on a lot of different current events, from pandemics and working from home to fake Kickstarter campaigns.
Everyone is sharing a bunch of great ways to thank their delivery drivers, but I'm on the fence as to what is most helpful--and what's even helpful at all. For example, I'm tipping as generously as I can for online orders for takeout delivery, which go to the drivers, but what about tipping in person? No contact is a must right now, but is leaving cash considered safe? I'm sure cash has more germs than anything! I don't even have any in the house right now.
A new report from the U.S. Department of State on compliance with arms control, nonproliferation and disarmament was obtained by the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday. The report concluded that China may be violating international law by conducting low strength nuclear tests underground in the northwest part of the country.
Don't you just love a good dessert tea? For me, it's more dessert-y if it's hot, but I like them cold as well. Whether you just love your tea or you like desserts with less sugar, dessert teas are a wonderful way to indulge any day of the week.

Last week, news of disparities women face at home, from more chores and work to increased domestic violence, made headlines. Now we also know that women are a third of essential workers and unemployment is rising faster for women.

Weeks ago we celebrated the return of the sound of the frogs, and now it's time to help the frogs and salamanders as they trek to find places to spawn. This is a dangerous journey for many amphibians, but one of the brighter parts of many humans staying home means that there will be fewer humans to run them over or otherwise interfere with this annual pilgrimage to parenthood.
The Grateful Dead has served as inspiration for many a food and beverage, from booze to black bean burgers to even infused treats that definitely fit with the band's focus. But the new Crazy Rooster Brewing company might be the first Grateful Dead inspired business to open during the Coronavirus, which means that they've had to adapt, selling their product via car windows rather than in a pub-like setting where people might expect.
Lots of people are playing BINGO games with their TV and movie binging lately, and it's not only a fun way to enjoy a movie with your housemates (and throw in a few stakes, like winner choosing takeout or loser owing chores!), but it's also a fun way to watch movies and play with people remotely. You can play these while you use services like Netflix Party and stream movies as a family or friends, even if you're not in the same house.
An Australian cross-parliamentary committee has recently identified a “significant risk” that local Indigenous groups were not consulted about a proposed nuclear waste facility to a standard required by international law.

Harilal said, “It's a question of scale. The lasers create the same fireball chemistry that happens in a nuclear explosion, so we can study the chemistry and how it reacts to different environmental conditions. It's small, but the light is good. We can collect it with no problem.”

Many sophisticated laboratory tests have been developed for determining the composition of a material of interest. However, there are times when it is just not possible to bring a sample into the laboratory for testing. One example would be testing contents of shipping containers on the dock. Another would be analyzing a rock on the surface of Mars.
