Edit: Thank you, everyone, for providing such great information! Truly, thank you!

I'm looking to buy someone a set of good cookware. Hopefully, I'll have them to gift in time for Christmas. My kitchen consists of a pot, pan, and a rice cooker (probably all from Big Lots or something), so I'm in over my head here.

In talking to people IRL, I've been told Amazon is not a good place for a quality set - which I believe based on mixed reviews of my recent purchases and my own lack of knowledge on what makes a good set. I was also told to search antique stores and consignment shops for pieces. So, I'm doing that without much luck as, again, I'm just out of my depth and it's possible it will take much longer to find enough pieces to make a complete set (between 5 and 9-ish).

Does anyone have recommendations for what I should look for in a good pot/pan? Or, what are some solid brands that someone who loves to cook would be proud to own?

I'm not sure what is a good budget. Is anywhere between 500 and 1000 USD a good start?

Thanks for any advice you can give.

It's a movie that I watched. That's about all I can say. Well, that and it has Gabe Kaplan who played Mr. Kotter in Welcome Back, Kotter - a show I loved as a child.

Enjoy!

That site allowed musicians to create and upload music and then other musicians could rate, critique, and collaborate on said music. You could even download tunes and I've got SO much great music still on my phone from those artists. And, it was a fun, supportive community.

I apologize for spamming all the Ask Lemmy communities. I can delete if desired. Or, post in a more appropriate community.

But the Supreme Court’s April 12 ruling that they are in the transportation business opens the door for them to take the dispute to court.

That’s because the FAA — in its very first section — exempts from its mandate several types of workers, such as railroad employees and “any other class of workers engaged in foreign or interstate commerce.”

I'm looking for some good reading on how to, eventually, best help be a step parent to my partner's children and NEARLY ALL books are geared toward the woman's perspective as though men don't want to be a strong teacher and develop these kids into healthy adults. Ugh!

Thanks for listening to my rant.

I've got, like, a bit over a week to learn 6 songs before I sit in with a metal band who asked me to sit in. I don't want to take my tablet on stage with me because, IMO, it would look a little too unprofessional for these guys to have their bassist with a tablet on a stand just hanging out. (Maybe in a pinch I could put the tablet on the floor?) Does anyone have an idea for crib notes that are pretty well hidden? In my head I'm thinking something like what marching bands use or a wrist band like an NFL quarterback might use.

Thank you in advance.

Oooh, boy, is this a ride!

Big ole business just itching to get more money from people's grief.. until they're called out in front of enough people online.

I'm so glad we made this trade.

In a Newsweek essay, Amy Cooper says her actions were driven by “panic and vulnerability” and blames the Black man she accosted for the incident.
