I run a charity called The Laptop Project that refurbishes tech for people in need.
Thanks to a generous donor and the VERY hard work of three of our volunteers (including a former intern), we were able to send out a batch of *20* laptops to families that had been impacted by the recent storms...

In a rare bit of advanced planning, the #shabbat menu is ready!
- Arroz con polo
- Loaded chicken soup w/pelmeni and small shells
- Zucchini stuffed with beef & rice
- A Moroccan- inspired preserved lemon chicken
- Brownies from a box mix (it can't all be art, people!)
What are you having?

I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Speaking of Transformers, specially Cyclonus, I am currently rereading IDW’s “Phase 1” collections.
It really is amazing how the writers have you rooting in phase 2 for characters who are mass murdering in phase1. Cyclonus is a fantastic example of that. Dude is an utter bastard at first.

This week I learned that 3-D printing is actually THREE hobbies. The first one is 3-D printing, the second one is maintaining your 3-D printer, and the last one is upgrading your 3-D printer.
Technically there is a a fourth hobby, which is talking to everyone you meet about your 3-D printer

With stores branding any item that mixes chocolate and pistachio as “Dubai”, I have to wonder if there is a product in Dubai that is always branded “American”.
My guess? It’s either something really fatty, or anything with pumpkin spice blend.

On the one hand “reading books and collecting books are two different hobbies” is valid.
On the other, “3d printing and 3d printers are two different hobbies” is equally valid
