Take Advantage of Carnegie Hall's Free Music Education Programs for Kids
If we learned one thing from 1990s classics like Sister Act II: Back in the Habit and Mr. Holland’s Opus, it’s that music education can be life-changing for kids (and, spoiler: their teachers too), but it’s often woefully under-funded. The funding situation hasn’t really improved much, but for close to a year, school… Read...

Earn $25,000 to Serve as a Smoothie Sommelier
Smoothies (and smoothie bowls) may be one step away from baby food, but unlike the stuff in the tiny jars, you get to control what goes in it. (Which probably means ending up with something closer to “Tutti Frutti” than “Turkey Dinner With Vegetables,” but to each their own). Read more... from Lifehacker https://i...

Try Using Dry Curaçao Instead of Sweet Vermouth
It seems I am always out of something. Today I’d planned to make you a bourbon cocktail called “Game Set Match,” but it’s not going to happen. Though I had the requisite bourbon and Cynar (and a lot of each), I was (somehow) completely out of sweet vermouth, which made me sad. (Just wait until I find out who drank it… Read...

The Adult's Guide to Losing Your Virginity
Not all of us lose our virginity at age 16 in the back of an old Camry. If you’re still a virgin later in life, it can feel like you’re the last person on earth who hasn’t had sex. But rest assured, you aren’t alone. According to a recent CDC study, Americans are waiting longer than they used to to have sex for the… Read...

Do This If You Lose Your Child in Public
Every parent has been there (and if you haven’t yet, give it time): Your focus shifts for just a moment. You’re at the store, trying to pick out the right birthday card for your sister. Or you’re digging money out of your wallet to pay for the corn dog at the fair. Your back is only turned for literal seconds, but… Read...

Don't Use LinkedIn to 'Build Your Brand'
Like all social networks in 2021, LinkedIn is regularly swarmed by users trying to go viral or make a splash by pontificating about their career insights. Though it isn’t as toxic as Facebook or Twitter—remaining a much more benign platform existing (mostly) outside of the social media culture wars—a current of… Read...

An Age-By-Age Guide to Kids' Chores
I often lament the fact that no matter how many times I unload the dishwasher, it will inevitably need to be unloaded again—probably later today or tomorrow. Chores are a tedious but unavoidable part of life, and teaching our kids to take ownership of all the little tasks that permeate the day-to-day is a process that… Read...

Do I Need to Replace My Windows 7 Computer Yet?
I never thought I’d hear the phrase “Windows 7" ever again, but a Lifehacker reader recently reminded me that, yes, some people are still using Microsoft’s end-of-life operating system. It’s not that they wouldn’t want to upgrade, I assume, but some people just can’t; they probably tried, were met with an error… Read...

You Should Always Pre-Schedule Your Emails
The thing about email, which once revolutionized work communication but now seems almost obsolete, is that it’s an informal medium subject to formal workplace standards. Unlike a Slack message service, a missive sent via email must be properly formatted, include clear syntax, and be free of typos. That’s why you… Read...

Government agencies have announced changes that allow for “Dreamers”—U.S. residents with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status—to qualify for FHA mortgage loans, as well as a deadline extension on mortgage forbearance for people who already have these loans and are struggling to make payments.

How to View Tonight's Wolf Moon
Tonight we’ll see the rise of the wolf moon, the first full moon of 2021. Oddly enough, peak illumination begins at 2:16 p.m., when the moon is not generally visible. But don’t let the sun ruin the moon’s first big day this year; you can get a good glimpse right around sunset. Read more... from Lifehacker https://...

I'm Obsessed With Air Fried Tofu
Many years ago, I took a break from studying chemistry in Gainesville, Florida to hang out with my brother who was teaching math in Athens, Georgia. It was the late-ish 2000s, Dottie Alexander was still in of Montreal, and Michael Stipe’s vegetarian restaurant, The Grit, was very popular. Read more... from Lifehacker...

We Have to Save Books from the Book People
Some online discourses resurface as if on schedule, like an itch that can never be scratched to satisfaction. I’d like to prescribe a salve for one of Twitter’s most obnoxious perennial obsessions: fulminating about the books we were assigned in high school. I’ve been going online to complain about stuff since the… Read...

Why Your Credit Karma Score Seems Too High
People on Twitter have been commiserating recently about how much higher their free Credit Karma credit scores are compared to the ones lenders actually use, as many have learned that their “excellent” credit is merely good, or worse.
