Eye of the Tiger/mouth of the teamster.
Just finished The Swerve, by Stephen Greenblatt. A fascinating entry in the history of ideas that argues the importance of On The Nature of Things by Lucretius is a crucial work to modernity. The book is a little frustrating at times, but ultimately very good.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Mahomes is a guy with a dad bod whom God gave super powers too. Pretty weird if you ask me.

I had an incredibly bleak thought the other day that people are almost certainly using ChatGPT etc to write their marriage vows,
one of the more bleak aspects of ai chatbots is it’s starting to blow up real marriages

You can watch Tampopo on HBO Max, and if you've never seen it before, you should remedy that. Truly a one-of-one movie. Incredibly funny and daring.
Four decades on, Juzo Itami's "Tampopo" remains unsurpassed as a wicked and delicious social commentary on Japanese society told through the lens of food. 👉 ebx.sh/pC51Lw

I hate it when Zohran Mamdani chastises Manhattan synagogues that host events promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories...
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

The Beast in Me on Netflix, starring Matthew Rhys and Claire Danes fucking sucks. Hope this helps.

My Bouie-adjacent take is that Alden Ehrenreich’s performance is very good in an otherwise very bad movie
Bouie's Rogue One gambit was a daring move to distract everyone from seeing that he said Solo should be higher in the list

Shout out to Adobe Acrobat's AI assistant that assumes I'm too dumb to read a nine-page PDF and is constantly asking me if I want it summarized.
