Like the terrestrial
crust of the earth
which is proportionately
ten times thinner
than an eggshell,
the skin of the soul
is a miracle of mutual
pressures.

One of the most telling pics of the year ... so far.

A dog stands on a table, posing next a basted peak lapel sport coat. The jacket is being displayed on a dress form.

A dog poses on a table. He's surrounded by a tailor's measuring tape.

Every time this tailor posts a photo of their workspace, it looks like their dog is a tailor and he's showing off the garments he made.

AOC talking to RFK Jr. Her facial and hand gesture has the spiritual energy of that Italian hand gesture where you pinch your fingers and wave your hand (the "ma che vuo" gesture).

how it feels to say "sprezzatura"

this morning, mamdani’s team got in touch with me to float a new tax proposal: if your net worth exceeds $5 million and you dress badly, you’ll be hit with a 10% annual levy for “visual pollution.” i would be in charge of deciding if the outfits are bad.

And how good the IM models are at capturing this risk.

Maybe a live trial of the swap margin rules that Dodd-Frank made the banking agencies write back in 2015.

Police investigate bomb threat at suburban home of Pope Leo's brother Police in suburban New Lenox were investigating after a bomb threat at the home of Pope Leo’s brother.

Appalling that Pope Leo's brother John (+ family/neighbours) becomes the target of a death threat because the first U.S.-born Pope preaches a message of peace and love.

Not at all coincidental that this comes immediately after Trump's "I don't like Pope Leo".
