That’s basically how my grandmother used to kick my ass at tennis

From an amateur fencer: look how the dominant fighter barely does any flourishes--it's all to the point flow

I've been thinking about the backlash Marie Kondo got and I think part of it was not just that she was saying "buy less shit" she was explicitly say "only buy what actually makes you happy" and in a nation of conspicuous consumption it pissed people off.

Noooo

James is good folks. If you’re looking for a freelance editor, you’d be lucky to work with him…and if you’re hiring, snap him up!

That’s awful. I’m so sorry.

Book cover to Moon Over Brendle by Jeff Noon. The illustration shows a tower with a large moon behind it.

Just finished reading an ebook advance proof of Moon over Brendle by Jeff Noon (via Netgally). It's a glorious slice of fantasy.

Set in 1968, 11 year old Joe Sutter is enjoying a summer before going to secondary school, in a world very similar to ours with one distinct & colourful difference.

It’s SO good. I love that Watson gets the respect she deserves, and when Holmes is shitty to her she calls him on it and he apologizes and tries to do better. I hate all the “arrogant asshole” Holmes versions (House very much included).

This discourse rolls around every six months and I'm always happy to chime in: ELEMENTARY is a great TV show qua TV show and best modern interpretation of Holmes, including that one you're thinking of, which was more of one dude's intermittent hobby, which also somehow turned into CRIME DR. WHO.

And curly! But in an elegant way.

Happy birthday! Also 36 is a delightful number, it’s a square of squares, it’s divisible by 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, and 18, what’s not to love?

Wanted to show you this post in English because it’s so good and we truly are a global village

we can't have a single fucking tit in this house

I will die on the hill that U.S. culture suffered a grievous and potentially mortal injury when we retired the concept of "selling out"

He was a terrible, incompetent mayor but *at least he wanted to help people*, a trait that I now miss very much

3 Years After a Landmark Law, Some Pregnant Workers Still Don’t Get Basic Accommodations

Businesses like Amazon are going to keep doing whatever they can get away with and that's why people should keep suing them and why there should be punitive damages | no paywall

Smartwatches already exist!

'People will think you're creepy and recoil from you, but at least the glasses look good and are great at shading your eyes from the sun' is quite the juxtaposition.

It’s a sad day when you find yourself nostalgic for Rob Ford, but here I am

A lot of our big “we’re gonna hold big tech accountable” bills actually hand them + the government unprecedented power to track, censor, and deplatform internet users—and would require us to link our identities to everything we do online, meaning no more privacy. Greatly reducing opposition to them

I said it before and I'll say it again:

Giving a pack of Epstein associates a comprehensive list of all children in the country with home address and school listed, sortable by various traits that indicate vulnerability to exploitation, is the literal diametric opposite of keeping kids safe.

Should you really trust health advice from an AI chatbot? - Betteridge’s Law No.

But I still think a GOVERNMENT OF ONTARIO RV that is usable by everyone is a good idea b/c it would give the illusion the entire government is working together for the betterment of Ontarians, as well as evidence of when officials were in a town.

It's very Doug Ford vibes. I'm sorry but it is!

Waiting for an MRI in Ontario can take anywhere up to eight months and Doug Ford spent 29 MRI machines on a jet so he could be more comfy on his one-hour flight to Ottawa once a year.

Starvation is now an "aesthetic." YouTube video by Ashley Viola

This is an excellent breakdown of the current, terrifying, thin aesthetic. And it discusses the fact that unfortunately we don't have the luxury of not commenting on bodies when people are visibly malnourished. www.youtube.com/watch?v=urCl...
