Took a brain break to watch an old No Reservations episode. It was Lisbon 2 decades ago and featured this native band Dead Combo. Great, mainly instrumental stuff. Bourdain was the best. open.spotify.com/artist/4DbBi...

Totally aligned with Matt on this. The implications of building for car dependence vs car enthusiasm are vastly different.

This duck.com feature that plays YT videos in browser without ads is *chef’s kiss*

Super-lovely new murals at the 42nd + 3rd entrance to the 7! Sharmistha Ray & Dannielle Tegeder’s Hilma’s Ghost (an homage to Hilma af Klint, apparently)

Tried ashwagandha for a few months and didn’t feel any difference unfortunately. Considering trying rhodiola next…

I wonder if this was one or two extremely wealthy women wanting to do the trip. Then their PR teams said: you can’t just go up there without people finding out. Let’s dress this stunt up. Publicize it as feminism and inspiration for humanity so the plebes don’t complain about your fancy daycation.

I had no idea i could die if i go under at the dentists office

What should I read next: Thinking Fast and Slow or A People’s History of the United States? Tech job market is in the toilet so I have lots of time on my hands😭

Black Mirror pitch: POTUS destroys democracy in 90 days. Everyone watches it happen on their phones. The opposition party leaders are 85 years old and post "Hey, stop" once a day. Toiletries are locked behind glass. An evil online bookstore sends Katy Perry into space for feminism. [fin]

People ask how I’m able to read so many books. Here’s what I do. 1. No streaming services except Kanopy. Subscribe to Apple 1 month/year to binge Hacks and Slow Horses. 2. Nonfiction audiobooks at 1.6x speed during cardio 3. Fiction e-books & hard copies for leisure reading 4. Minimal social media

As a young woman, Ruth Asawa (1926-2013) learned to draw while in an internment camp for Japanese-Americans with her family during WW2. She later became a renowned sculptor #WomensArt

Work is underway converting 2 miles of oceanfront roadway in San Francisco into an art filled pedestrian and bike promenade. It officially opens Saturday, April 12, and today it got an official name: Sunset Dunes. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

BREAKING - Supreme Court rules AGAINST Trump SCOTUS orders that government facilitate the return of Kilman Armando Abrego Garcia -- deported to El Salvador on an "administrative error" Now the question is whether the govt will follow SCOTUS's order -- or will Trump defy it?

I support the US garment industry. I don't believe in making life harder for immigrants or erecting blanket tariffs. So how can we reshore some of our US garment manufacturing without xenophobia or protectionism? Here's my view. 🧵

Of course we can move clothing production back to the US. Why do you think we've insisted on locking the minimum wage at $7.25 for all these years? by Mitch McConnell, Mike Johnson, and Donald Trump

Panic setting in for mid-luxury brands, dropping promos left and right. We’re going to lose quite a few of the smaller indie brands if this tariff situation doesn’t abate. #retail

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

It's here! The 2025 Shetland Wool Week hat pattern is now available. The 2025 SWW patron is the Shetland Guild of Spinners, Knitters, Weavers and Dyers - member Rachel Hunter designed this year's hat. Digital download: payhip.com/b/6OjQ8 #Knitting #Shetland #ShetlandWoolWeek

Maybe Democratic Congresspeople should think of proactive drafting, enaction, implementation, and enforcement of guardrails to stop this administration’s lunacy BEFORE they act. This is round 2 w/Trump. You have Project 2025 plans laid out for you. Do your jobs or get out so someone competent can.

Holy crap the market feels apocalyptic, $SQQQ up +13%!

Market response to Trump tariff announcement: Apple down 5%, or about $170 billion That's equal to the entire annual GDP of Ukraine www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

We talk about this on-air a lot. What company is going to spend the $$ to bring production home — knowing that trade policy and tariffs could *reverse* just as the plant is ready to open? @firstadopter.bsky.social @conorsen.bsky.social
