I can't speak for other states, but California disability services are a joke. I guess it must just be a rumor that California has the 'best' resources to aid the disadvantaged - if this is the 'best' we're all in trouble. The state's…

Dear Google Glass,
In 2015 you gave me hope to broaden my field of vision, but then you quickly discontinued the project and went essentially offline. What caught my attention about this product was that it had a small inconspicuous…

That's right, I'm trying out the most affordable and brilliant idea ever, EveryPlate! I've tried boxes like these before and found that they are hard to accomplish successfully. Like, why would I spend over $200 a week for a messy kitchen?!…
