inJust found out the hard way about mixing concrete in a plastic wheelbarrow on a hot day
That 110-degree heat basically turns a plastic wheelbarrow into a slow cooker. People forget the SUN is heating it from above while the chemical reaction in the wet concrete cooks it from below. It's a double whammy. I switched to a steel tray wheelbarrow years ago after a similar meltdown. The metal gets hot, sure, but it won't just give up and split open on you.

inMy sister told me my air fryer chicken was 'sad and dry' and I'm still mad about it
Oh man, that's the worst. I was reading something about how the air fryer basically blasts all the moisture out if you don't add a little oil barrier first. Your old method was basically my method too, and I got the same complaints. That patting dry step is a total game changer, it lets the skin get crispy instead of steamed. Family can be brutal but at least it led to a better recipe.

inSerious question, did anyone else watch shows on their phone for years without realizing how much they were missing?
Honestly read an article about this, how directors frame shots for big screens and phones just can't do it justice.

inMy clipper blade just seized up mid-fade yesterday afternoon
Yeah, that grinding noise is a death sentence for blades. I saw a barber on youtube take apart a seized Wahl blade once, and the metal inside was all chewed up. He said once the bearings go, you're basically polishing a turd trying to fix it. You'll spend more on the parts and your time than a new blade costs. Just toss it and save yourself the headache.

inMy best shot of the Orion Nebula almost got ruined by a neighbor's porch light
Ugh, that's the worst! A light shield is a good idea, but honestly, sometimes you just have to be ready to scrap a whole set of subs and start over.
