The problem with many of these so-called personality tests that I've seen is that they have no shades of gray. Whether I'm an introvert or an extrovert, for example, depends on the circumstances e.g., who I'm with and how well I know them, whether I'm in a familiar environment or an unfamiliar one, whether I'm in my comfort zone professionally or whether I'm learning new content from experts in other fields, and a million other factors. Most of the time when I've seen questions on these "tests" my answer would be, "Well, it depends . . . ."

I thought this was quite interesting, but of course it doesn't account for tastes in music, either. I mean, I know it was looking at "popular" music, but there's a lot of music from the 2000s that i like a lot--but in different genres, such as folk, jazz, Americana, and so-called "contemporary classical" music. So when I took the quiz, there was no music presented by Gabriel Kahane, Rhiannon Giddens, Becca Stevens, and numerous others I listen to all the time, but who are "popular" to a smaller --but enthusiastic-- group of listeners. Even though I'm "old" I still seek out new music.

It's so hard to see the "before" pictures but so gratifying when you see what happens when someone loves and cares for them.

I vote abomination.

My husband and I will play that game--play just the first chord of a favorite song and then stop the music. He's super good at it--he has a music background--but I'm pretty good too! It really is amazing how fast the brain can recognize music.

Tuna casserole can be sooooo delicious--if you use good ingredients. If you combine a bunch of over-salty canned stuff and blop it in a dish and bake it until it vulcanizes, it will be disgusting. And of course my mom's recipe (that I now make) was the best! :)

What a great idea!

Wow! These are great! I love to do embroidery and have never seen designs like this.

This made me crack up: "Even if my house is destroyed, even if I go into bankruptcyIf the cat is happy, there’s no problemSacrifices for love know no limit"

I found this story historically fascinating and horrifying. As a special education teacher, I've been interested in this "hidden history" of how people with cognitive and other disabilities were treated through the decades. It may astonish you to know that as recently as a few years ago, North Carolina was paying reparations to people who had been sterilized: https://ncadmin.nc.gov/about-doa/special-programs/welcome-office-justice-sterilization-victimsSo this isn't a story from long, long ago!

You all might enjoy the Feb. 20, 2019 episode of the podcast "Imaginary Worlds" which is entitled "The Man Behind the Sword" about Robert Howard and the carton of Conan. This is a great podcast in general for people who like SF and fantasy.

Poor thing! I hope it liked its new home.

This is so lovely. It is nice to read kind comments from people!

I lived in Atlanta for 19 years—and worked down the street from this building—and never heard of this place! Thanks for this story.
