If we're going to nuclear war, might as well spend money on art to hang over the couch and plane tickets and fancy dinners.
lifeheck: put off calling doctors / banks / anything official to make appointments because you feel anxious about the appointment. this will successfully make you MORE anxious because the thing will be hanging over your head longer! 🎉
Not thrilled with how both Facebook and Twitter have expanded their concept of notifications to include "stuff that has nothing to do with you but we thought you might like anyway"
Just passed a panting dog, and his owner was a dude chatting up some girl, and I almost said, "Me, too, buddy," to the dog before I realized the people might think I was talking about them.

My other favorite podcasts:
* I'm doing the same ad read-through that Leo Laporte does, yet he makes it sound compelling and I'm making it sound like I'm being waterboarded.
* Let's talk over the female hosts and then re-state everything they said.
* WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE But first let me tell you a little bit about Squarespace...
* "I'm convinced you'll like DickPicks2U. I've been using them for years and I'm glad they're now a sponsor of this show. They're totally not creepy and I <3 them
My favorite podcasts:
* The five-minute intro song they had commissioned for the show that stopped being clever about one minute into the first episode.
* "And now the latest tech news" that's three weeks old and 2 hours too long.
* "Here's a rundown of the latest packages released since our last episode"
* "I was on podcast 1 where we talked about podcast 2 in their episode about podcast 3 which lead to an interesting discussion on podcast 4 that was tangentially related to [STACK OVERFLOW]"
Same shit, different damn day. Every. Single. Day.

PSA from the City of New York and its inhabitants to everyone else: Show more
Middle America: loves to say we don't know anything about them and what they need, then tells New Yorkers what's what when they think we all live in an episode of Friends or Law and Order or whatever their media consumption depiction of New York is. Where is the Omaha Register's miles of essays on understanding what drives the "coastal elite" vote or that, maybe, the vast majority of us dismissed as coastal elite are actually a bunch of pissed off, struggling people?
Us: We have too many books
Also us: A local library is having a used book sale and we must liberate all of the good books before they are gone.

There is something gorgeous about Scaramucci's first big move being to get Reince Priebus fired, only to have Priebus replaced with John Kelly, whose first big move is to get Scaramucci fired.
Imagine all the money you could make if you could ever convince any of these people to play poker with you
Don't even talk to me before I've had two cups of milky, sweet tea.
Chaotic Evil Milk Hotel
I think I've come to some kind of peace with this show Will if I just pretend it's not about Shakespeare and is just a CW teen drama about some playwright guy in an alt history show set in a nebulous nowhere time where everyone wears Elizabethan inspired punk clothes. Very Vivienne Westwood, really.
