| Most heavy arms out of planned Syria buffer zone: monitor Posted: 09 Oct 2018 02:15 AM PDT  Jihadists and Turkish-backed rebels have withdrawn most heavy weapons from territory around Syria's last major opposition stronghold ahead of a Wednesday deadline, a monitor said. The weapons pullback is the first major test of a truce deal brokered by government-backed Russia and rebel-backer Turkey last month to avoid what the United Nations warned would be the appalling humanitarian consequences of a major government offensive. Under the agreement, all rebel groups have a Wednesday deadline to withdraw all their heavy weaponry from a 15- to 20-kilometre (nine- to 12-mile) buffer zone along the front line in Idlib province and adjacent areas of the northwest.

| Thank you r/relationships for giving me the drama fix I crave Posted: 09 Oct 2018 02:14 PM PDT  This is Ode To... , a weekly column where we share the stuff we're really into in hopes that you'll be really into it, too. Who doesn't love internet drama? I, for one, live for it. Watching someone get ratio'd on Twitter fills me with glee. If someone posts screenshots, I'll meticulously go through every shred of each snarky text. When I scroll past an argument on Facebook, I can't help but dive into the thread and digest every single comment. SEE ALSO: Staten Harry is the internet's cutest lip-sync star Lurking around internet drama satisfies me more than any Hulu original ever could. When I need to get away from the real world, I turn to vitriolic threads for entertainment. On especially rough days, when I finally tire of bingeing beloved trash shows like Gossip Girl, I venture into the crème de la crème of drama: Reddit's r/relationships. Everyone on r/relationships has a bone to pick: no matter how stable you think your relationship is, it wouldn't stand a chance against this subreddit. Some posters genuinely want advice, from asking for support through grief to admitting to a drug problem to a partner. But if you're looking for the messiest of messy, sort r/relationships by controversial and buckle up. Sure, your partner might forget to wash the dishes, or they may play too much Fortnite. But at least they aren't nearly as bad as the OPs of r/relationship's controversial tab. Here are just a few gems from these insecure, overbearing dumpster fires. Exhibit A: The man who feels insecure about his girlfriend's height. Sorry your girlfriend is too good for you, pal! Sometimes you can joyfully watch an OP get torn to shreds in the comments, like this woman who won't stand up against her hateful family. She even goes as far as dismissing their blatant racism as being "very conservative." Hard yikes, right? There are examples that make you want to scream, "Get out!! Get out now!" One woman's boyfriend, feels threatened that all of his partner's family members are male. It's bizarre how deep-set his insecurity runs. Apparently, he's worried that OP has been "masculinized due to being raised by a dad," and that by spending time with her family, she'll be "masculinized even more." What does that even mean? The subreddit's infamy has even crossed over to Twitter, where accounts like @redditships screenshot and tweet hilariously unfortunate posts. Me [19F] with my boyfriend [19M] of 1 year, how can I make him stop using twitch memes in every day conversation? pic.twitter.com/1ek46xQ971 — relationships.txt (@redditships) September 25, 2018 How to break it to my large headed (23F) girlfriend that I don't want her wearing my (30M) t-shirts anymore because she stretches out the head-hole. pic.twitter.com/ELDLkomuj4 — relationships.txt (@redditships) October 9, 2018 It was even a short lived meme. /r/relationships In vain I [28M] have struggled. It will not do. I told her [20F] I love her, most ardently, and she rejects me.

Should I kidnap her and take her to my underground candlelit lair? — ✍️ (@neonacropolis) July 23, 2018 Let's just take a moment to appreciate r/relationships for blessing us with clueless, horrifying, and endlessly entertaining stories of the internet's worst romantic partners.

| COOKING ON DEADLINE: Cauliflower Tots Posted: 08 Oct 2018 07:03 AM PDT  There is no question that cauliflower has been having a long, popular moment. I was already a cauliflower fan, even a cauliflower lover, mostly favoring sliced and broken chunks of cauliflower tossed with a generous amount of olive oil, sprinkled with a liberal amount of salt, and roasted to a deep caramelized brown in a fairly high oven. My family can eat a baking sheet of that before dinner even hits the table.

| Indiana Democrat touts support of Trump in bid to keep seat Posted: 09 Oct 2018 06:35 AM PDT  For incumbent Democratic Senator Joe Donnelly, that reflected the fact that he will need the president's supporters to win reelection in a state that overwhelmingly supported Trump two years ago. Donnelly, a first-term senator, is trying to stave off a challenge from Republican businessman Mike Braun, and in doing so, keep alive Democratic hopes of taking control of the U.S. Senate after the Nov 6. Democrats need a net gain of two Senate seats to take a majority in the upper chamber, which would allow them to more effectively counter Trump's agenda.
