Indoor smoking bans. Those of you on the younger side have no idea how pervasive it was to go out to a restaurant, a bar, even a flight and be bombarded with second hand smoke. It was awful. So glad it is gone.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

it costs me 81 bucks a month not to be on substack. Anyone who chooses substack in 2026 does it only for money. And then they don’t make money. But nazis get 10 percent.

running explicitly against repetitive ads feels like an untapped vein. I was getting my car serviced the other day and listening to broadcast TV for the first time in months, and it had the same 3 ads on over and over and over, it was annoying as hell

The insane thing about this is that Iowa hosts arguably the biggest cycling event in the country and is a Mecca for U.S. cycling. It brings literally billions into Iowa.

Here’s the full hour with Joey Votto and Alex Bregman. Joey said midway through that it felt like a masters-level course on hitting. If you want to understand how modern hitters think — and handle otherworldly stuff — this is a great place to start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaOgM2NVEx4

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

It shows you how bad the Vivek thing is. Staffer for one of the slimiest guys in congress, who literally made jokes about Dems pols getting murdered in Minnesota, gets the fully story and issues an abject apology.

We all know the "Viggo broke his toe" story but what's another movie fact you're personally compelled to bring up every time without prompting? For me, it's the fact that Robin Tunney is wearing a wig in The Craft because of having just shaved her head to save her job filming Empire Records.

Hungarian art historian, Barki, was watching ‘Stuart Little’ in 2009 when he spotted the painting ‘Sleeping Lady with Black Vase’ by Bereny, hanging on set. A set designer had bought the painting for $500. The artwork vanished after a 1928 exhibition in Budapest and was presumed lost after WWII ❤️

Because four of the Justices have book contracts with a party's corporate parent, the Supreme Court LACKS A QUORUM to hear BMG v. Vetter, and one of the worst copyright decisions in recent memory is affirmed by default. It's just one bad look after another. www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docke...

Vogt pinching for a guy with a 900 ops in the post season all freaking series is really maddening. Fry shouldn't be pinching for Halpin, he should be pinching for Rocchio.

I have an MBA. And I would argue that the most valuable things I learned were... that I didn't want to go the traditional path of an MBA grad because it seemed ridiculous. I agree there's not much value there.
