  • The sopranos. Easily one of the best shows ever made. I catch new things every time I watch. David Chase is genius.

    MASH. Just comforting background noise from my childhood really.

    OG Simpsons. Seasons 3 to tenish. Some of the best writing ever.

    Futurama, preferring the older seasons, but the later ones are still good.

    I’ve recently started watching Hill Street Blues. Most of which is available on you tube if anyone’s interested. Really been enjoying it.













  • I have the same exact model and I love them! They’re light, a lot of earbuds try to pack too much. I know it seems silly when we’re talking grams, but it does make a difference. Well made case. I’ve had mine for 18 months and they’re still holding up.

    I also got tip replacements made out of earplug material, they do more than the noise cancellation ever did. I typically don’t turn on the noise cancellation as I can’t tell the difference and it only serves to drain the battery.

    Definitely recommend. And yes the buttons are big and easily mashed. I too live in a cold climate, and they held up just fine. At -30f, which isn’t far off from -40

    Edit: also the earplug material traps a lot more body heat!






  • It’s a balancing act with no clear one size answer. Can’t fix stupid, nor can you teach wisdom. There’s definitely situations where I’d want someone older in charge, cooler heads and all that.

    I think when you see a rigid seniority system in place, it’s usually a stand in for a more equitable solution. Sometimes the argument over who gets precedent isn’t worth the trouble, and it’s easier to just say fuck it and go by seniority. Less fair than some methods, fairer than a lot though too.


  • Rice vinegar makes a great condiment. It’s much sweeter and less pungent than most other vinegars. If you’re making a sandwich right, it’s half salad. Dress those greens with some rice vinegar!

    Slice up some cucumber, some onion, dress it in rice vinegar and stick it in the fridge overnight. Great on salad, on toast, anything really. I’ve even diced it up good into a relish and put it(cold) on pizza.
