I made this photo in Yosemite National Park.
The most interesting (to me) new app/social net-ugh-something-work is Artifact. It’s from the guys who created Instagram but it’s like a ‘TikTok for articles/blog posts/news.
I personally would much prefer to read than watch a video, so this is my kind of network.
I fell victim to a phishing scam yesterday and man, I haven’t felt shame like that in a while. Here’s what happened, and how you could avoid it if you weren’t an idiot like me.
Anthony Bourdain in 1999 before he was that chef guy everyone knew, writing ‘Don’t Eat Before Reading This’ in the New Yorker:
“Good food, good eating, is all about blood and organs, cruelty and decay. It’s about sodium-loaded pork fat, stinky triple-cream cheeses, the tender thymus glands and distended livers of young animals.”
I don’t wish to cause the editors at Atlas Obscura any stress, but why is this not titled ‘The God’s Must Be Thirsty (for Red Fanta)’
Islands, they’re always in the last place you look.
Celebrating Wayne Shorter (1933-2023) with his 2018 open letter co-authored with Herbie Hancock:

I’ve locked the two credit cards I fed them. Feel like an idiot.
As Abe Simpson said, and it will happen to yoouuuuu.
One of the little joys of being great at your art is inspiring others to take part in it. So often I am asked how to become a celebrant, that I have finally published my little eight-part guide on how to become a celebrant at the ever-so-smart domain name, becomeacelebrant.au
A letter from a freelancing poet, Edna St. Vincent Millay, to her publisher, Poetry magazine, with the business inspiration we all could take, from Letters of Note.
This line from the late Rich Mullins is my inspiration for writing, but gosh it’s hard sometimes
God spoke to Balaam through his ass, and God’s been speaking through them ever since.
