Five and his little coin toss when trying to decide where to go.....

Before going in the opposite direction anyway....

16, 19, 28!!

16) BOOK RANT: DID YOU KNOW THAT....In 1980, grad student Aaron Lansky founded The Yiddish Book Center, which saves Yiddish books and writing. Over 11,000 stories, memoirs, poems, plays, cookbooks and science manuals are digitized and preserved for future generations. You can read them online (for free!), download them (for free!) or even order printed copies/reprints (for an astonishingly reasonable price)!

19) BOOK THAT YOU CALL YOUR CHILD: It's Gaudy Night and if you don't clap when she enters the room I will blow this entire place up.

28) AN ENDING YOU WISH YOU COULD CHANGE: Why would I want to change the ending of Villette, where M. Paul Emanuel barely makes it home after a dramatic shipwreck and staggers to Lucy's door and through incipient hypothermia still manages to make an unnecessarily convoluted speech in condemnation of Protestant attitudes towards drink, which prevent Lucy from offering him a restorative nip of brandy to stave off his impending death of cold.

Cybertruck blew up outside Trump's hotel in Vegas. Wild footage, I've never seen an EV flat-out detonate like that and I'm thinking that it wasn't the battery.

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

you've heard of "quiet quitting," now I'd like to introduce you to the next level, The French Work Ethic:

Do exactly what you're paid for and nothing more

Absolutely refuse to be available to contact when you're off the clock

Never prioritize work over your own health, wellbeing, or family because that would be insane, it's just a job.

Have a little glass of wine

Take as long as you feel like for lunch

Deeply understand that work doesn't matter

Make sure your boss knows they're always your second priority ❤️

had a dream I went to a hozier concert and mr. hozier stopped singing and pointed to me in the crowd and asked me to go get him some extra crispy tofu and a blueberry shake for after the show and then the crowd passed his debit card to me and when I got it I could see his real legal name was Horace Bob-omb
