2. Batman: Under the Red Hood
This week marked the 10th anniversary of this criminally underrated chapter of the Batman franchise. Bonus for fans of Supernatural: Jenson Ackles plays the leading non-Batman role of Jason Todd. You can [watch it on YouTube for $3](.
3. Nagi-Asu: A Lull in the Sea
This [coming-of-age Japanese anime series]( depicts a world split between land and sea civilizations â and the hijinks that ensue when some sea-dwelling middle schoolers have to seek an education on land. It all hits Netflix this weekend.
what to eat
1. Homemade Quesadillas
You donât have to be a whiz in the kitchen to enjoy your favorite restaurant foods. Take [quesadillas](. With nothing but some tortillas, cheese, fresh pepper and expert guidance, youâll have an Applebeeâs-worthy meal.
2. Vegetarian Chicken Sandwich
Next time youâre in Chicagoâs Hyde Park, swing by Black-owned vegan restaurant Canât Believe Itâs Not Meat for this [loaded sandwich](. With crispy breading and cheese to match, this is one cheat meal you wonât regret.Â
3. Belizean Fry Jacks
These [easy breakfast breads]( are native to the Caribbean but are most popular in Belize. Having guests over this weekend? Indulge them by frying up a batch of this starch-heavy snack, topped with fruit and honey.
4. Vegan Lentil Jamaican Patties
This one might take some time, but if youâre in the mood for a new recipe, [this is a great one](. First, get your hands on some plant-based pie dough. Then itâs just a matter of boiling your lentils, preparing your veggies and seasoning. While Jamaican pies are traditionally filled with meat, this is a light and healthy alternative.Â

what to play
1. Buzzed
As you might guess from the name, [this drinking game]( has no reservations about getting you sloshed. Once you draw and read the card, the individuals who fit the promptâs description â whether itâs liking pineapple on pizza or having played a varsity sport â must take a shot. You can also play an [app version](.Â
2. Enormous Outside Jenga
You know how to play, but [at this size]( itâs a whole new game. The blocks arenât big enough that theyâll force you to social distance, but theyâll certainly help you remember to do so while youâre playing on the lawn with your friends. Â
3. $#!% Happens
We all intimately understand the name of this game just from surviving seven months of 2020, but itâs a bit more complex than that. In this [card game](, players have to place a series of awful situations in order from bad to worse, and win points for how well their answers match up to the responses of the expert panel tapped by the gameâs designers. Hey, it could even give you some perspective on this trash year.
what to download
1. 3Fun
Lockdown was really boring, so perhaps itâs no surprise that â at least according to this [threesome-focused dating app]( â thereâs been a surge of interest in online swinging. Despite the name, this app is for all kinds of swinging, not just the tricycle.
2. Triller
This [short-video platform]( actually debuted before TikTok â but was soon overshadowed by the behemoth. Still, with TikTok banned in some countries and on thin ice in others, it could be time to make a switch.Â
