Orly Minazad is a freelance writer and regrets it every day of her life. She moved to the States from Iran in 1991 with her family seeking better opportunities only to waste them earning a Masters in Professional Writing degree from USC which no longer exists, cost a lot of money, and for which she has nothing to show. No, she is not bitter at all. Why do you ask? Oh, you didn’t, ok. She lives with her husband and son in Los Angeles where she spends the day loading and unloading the dishwasher.

It’s the end of an era. Netflix is shutting down its DVD rentals that I had no idea still existed. (AP)

I present to you, Jon Hamm reacting at a Bad Bunny concert.

With all the back-to-back shootings of innocent kids in America today, I’m relieved this toddler made it out alive after accidentally getting through the White House fence. (WUSA9)

This article about “elite couple breeding to save mankind” is behind a paywall, but I got the gist of it from their photo. (The Telegraph)

This looks like something I would make and force my family to eat while I sneak in actual Snickers bar.

The 4 Ingredient Dessert you need to go and make! It tastes like a Snickers bar, but so much healthier and so so yum! I always need something sweet after dinner…. yep every night! Do you?? Well this is perfect for those cravings. Since you all loved my Hazelnut Chocolate Bark I shared last time, I had to make another. These barks are not only delish but they’re easy to make and great for meal prep. Chop up into smaller pieces, however size you like and keep in the fridge or freezer. Then grab a piece when you feel like it 🥰 I have both recipes on my website lovelies, the link in my Bio takes you straight there xxx #chocolatebark #chocolate #snickers #chocolatebarks #healthy #healthysnickers #healthyrecipes #plantbased #vegan #easyrecipe #easyrecipes #4ingredients #dessert #healthydessert

Coachella livestream links and other info for those of us who have FOMO because we have to be at home with our kids. (Deadline)

Speaking of Coachella, check out these ridiculous art installations I’m also missing out on. (My Modern Met)

Final note on Coachella, Frank Ocean should have been replaced with the all time best geriatric rappers, The Northern Boys. (The Antagonist)

No one covers the Royals and their drama like our very own Laura J. Burns. (The Antagonist)

Here’s a new term for babies I wish I’d never learned.

Beef is an absolutely incredible show and I don’t want to take anything away from the cast and crew, but we still have to talk about David Choe. (Pajiba)

An adaptation of Judy Blume’s Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret starring Rachel McAdams and Kathy Bates is out April 28 and is written and directed by someone I actually know and love, Kelly Fremon Craig. It’s getting incredible reviews and I will take my son so he learns about periods. (The Hollywood Reporter)

This is Cannelloni Enchilada. Not Cannoli Enchilada like I immediately read, but it still looks very very delicious. (Thrillist)

Same vibes when my son gifts me an empty toilet paper roll he painted at school.

You had me at “Sorry, sluts.” Heads to up to anyone in Michigan who wants to live with their partner before marriage. (Vice)

A 10 minute video on ChatGPT and why and how they’re taking over. (IGN)

As someone still angry at white man Jake Gyllenhaal for being cast as Prince of Persia, I enjoyed watching him struggle on Hot Ones.

Meanwhile, the actual “Prince of Persia,” the exiled son of the last king of Iran, Reza Shah Pahlavi, paid a visit to Israel to help relations between the two countries and got very mixed reactions. Either way, big news for my Persian Jews. (Iran International).

This is a MouthPad, a Bluetooth mouse worn in the mouth meant to allow quadriplegics to control their electronic devices. Now I will never say anything snarky about tech bros again. Well played, nerds. (Core77)

Best and worst movies to watch when you’re high. Don’t say I never share anything useful on here. (AV Club)

And on that note, Happy 4/20. Here are some stoner food recipes to enjoy while you watch. (High Times)

Or this.
