Oscar Winner Hattie McDaniel’s legacy and yet to be realized dreams
In its 94-year-long history, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has bestowed an Oscar, one the industry’s most coveted acting awards, to just 10 Black women. This year, actor Angela Bassett could become the 11th name on that short list, continuing a legacy that began with trailblazing performer and Hollywood legend Hattie McDaniel in 1940.
Bassett is nominated for Best Supporting Actress, the same category in which McDaniel won for her role in the 1939 adaptation of Gone with the Wind. McDaniel’s story has become synonymous with a long, complicated battle in Hollywood for equitable consideration and proper respect for the careers of Black performers. It’s a pursuit that represents a reality yet to be seen, often glossed over by the victorious, hope-inspiring moments, like McDaniel’s Oscar win.

People only just realized that the dishwasher top rack adjusts so you can fit everything in – it’s left many mind-blown
A LITTLE-known feature of dishwashers has left many people shocked after they learned the top racks are adjustable.
A TikTok video featuring the simple adjustment shows how you can maximize the appliance’s usefulness while saving time and space.
A TikToker has revealed a secret that could save dishwasher owners time, space, and money[/caption]
“I was today years old when I found out,” the highly-viewed video by @bankingtiktok begins, with a text overlay on a full dish rack.
“That the top level of dishwashers could go down,” the video continues.
The TikToker proceeds to lower the top dish rack via side levers so that the contents do not hit the roof of the appliance once the drawer is pushed in.
The video then pans over to show the TikToker’s stunned face.

This little-known hack comes amidst another shocking revelation about dishwashers.
According to a hot take from appliance repair pro Renae on TikTok, folks are regularly using Tide pods all wrong.
The appliance professional shares a hot take on her TikTok that changed the game for both Tide pod fans and dishwasher users.
Her recent video about dishwasher detergent pods has racked up over a million views.
“If you’re going to use pods in your dishwasher, do they go into the dispenser or not?” she asks.
“And the answer is: They do not.”
She goes on to explain that those with a dishwasher that has a spot specifically labeled ‘for pods’ are safe to use them in the soap dispenser.
For the rest of us, that could be a costly mistake.
The sticky substance that is used for cleaning from the gel pod, she explains, can get caught in the machine’s inner workings, causing it to fall into disrepair.
“I have had to replace dispensers on dishwashers because people put pods in them too often and it gunked them up and they would no longer open,” she said in the video.
Her recommendation is to put them in the bottom of the dishwasher.
Avoid any “exposed heating elements” she cautioned.
She also presented a secret hack for the safest soap dispensing: “You can do what I do and put (Tide pods) in the silverware caddy.”
Commenters shared their shock after learning they’ve been washing their dishes wrong for years.

“Started using them in the silverware caddy BECAUSE of you & it works BETTER,” wrote another.

I Refused To Play “Boy Games,” Until I Realized I Was Missing Out
I remember, quite vividly, when Halo first came out–though I suspect it might be for an entirely different reason than you.
Prior to the release of Halo: Combat Evolved, I had the luxury of never once considering how my gender impacted my favorite hobby, which is both beautiful and hilarious in retrospect. I, quite simply, played video games. That’s how it should be, right?
I played everything from Harvest Moon and Banjo-Kazooie to MediEvil and Diablo. I longed more than anything to be like Tifa Lockhart and Lara Croft and slept in Pokemon pajamas under a Pokemon comforter in my Pokemon-themed room. As far as I was concerned, I loved video games not just as much as the next person, but even more so. However, around the time Halo came out was also when I learned there was a secret gaming hierarchy–and my position on it was significantly lower than I would have presumed.
