“Life is like a sewer: what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.”

I knew it Marx is the six-fingered man

Cat buses are more efficient

Exactly. This is just like when I got fired from my bus router after putting up a sign calling it “The Epstein Express” and decorating it with the work of famed cartoonist Benita Epstein. Can’t believe the parents were so uptight

I saw an interview with an economist years ago where he said that if we just followed the accepted rules of rounding (1-4 rounds to 0, 5-10 rounds to 10) then it would work out about the same. In reality I’m sure companies would just pocket the extra money

It was for the Gallatin school within NYU, too, which has always prided itself on producing activists

For those who do not remember The Fabulous Baker Boys

Thanks for catching that

Though do it before the end of the month! (Edit: the 26th) Amazon is taking that option away

That’s only an issue if you assume they’ll be treated with any humanity

You can see how much of an impact NIH has in your state here: NIH in your state

I am definitely not an expert and probably a poster child for “a little knowledge is a dangerous thing” but after hearing about cafestol and kahweol and reading articles like this, I figured better safe than sorry since I tend toward borderline high.

Compared to machine drip for sure, but it can pull out a lot of different flavors than you’d get from espresso (whether you want those flavors is another issue). My friend turned me on to the 4:6 method if you’re curious about methodology. I wouldn’t argue that it’s better or worse than espresso or drip (okay maybe drip 😂) but it’s giving me the flavors I want out of coffee right now.

For old man reasons: coffee oils can raise cholesterol in some people and using a paper filter lowers the oil levels

I can quit anytime I want (as long as it’s not in the morning or that lull in the afternoon when I get kinda tired)

Just the microwave. That’s where any coffee nerd cred vanishes. It still tastes great though! 😂

It’s surprisingly easy to make (but with a ton of room for finesse I am learning). You do need a coffee grinder to take advantage of maximum bean freshness, though, but taste difference is huge

Thanks! I like the triangle as a name for it. I went to Japan this summer and it took me forever to figure out they call pour over/the triangle “drip,” (which is what I think of as machine coffee). Gotta standardize these names!

Love me some oat milk!

I have fallen off my yogurt intake. A good reason to pick it up again
