My mother-in-law is a John Legend person, Callie requested Imagine Dragons, and as soon as my husband got the chance to pick the music he put on the new Phoebe Bridgers which is SUCH a choice.

I bought every apple available at the Union Square farmer's market and we've been doing a week long taste-off - here to tell you that there's a CLEAR winner and it's Snap Dragon!

if an actor doesn't want to talk about politics because he is a little bit or very conservative, you should consider that a cultural victory for the left

Recurring feature of our times (including all the way back to the way Uber rolled out) is that obeying the rules/laws makes you a sucker. Businesses don't, people see that, internalise it, act like selfish assholes. Go ahead, run that red light, we all know no-one is getting punished for it

I believe it is good to be polite to robots not because they have consciousness (they do not) but because it is bad for the soul to let oneself become a vehicle for cruelty, even if directed at inanimate objects.

One half-baked theory I'm playing with is that fascism became inevitable when the basis of class solidarity (broadly construed) among the masses flipped from labor to consumption. We used (as in, a decade ago) to have the Fight for 15, now we have "the price of [fill in the blank]"

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

We bought my kid a Winnie the Pooh Yoto Card when she was 2 and she was utterly uninterested in any Pooh content until last month, and I just found out that based entirely on audio content she thought Christopher Robin was an actual robin (understandable! given owl and rabbit!!!) ❤️

The fact that Zero in Star Trek: Prodigy is played by a scraggly young British man and not a kindly middle aged woman is blowing my mind, not in the “I thought that was weird and moved on” way but in the “it occupies my every thought as I watch the show” way

If a man was at a party with a dozen women and he got so intoxicated that he couldn't function, he'd be about as safe as anyone could be because 99 times out of 100 the women would look after him and see that he got home safely.

LA is HOT. But does it have to be this hot? Did you know shade from a single tree can drop temps by 20° or more? Yet working-class neighborhoods like South LA, East LA, and the Valley get the least tree coverage and bear the brunt of extreme heat. Let's finally cool things down for everyone.

My husband gets on my ass a lot about how much laundry and dishes he does but today I asked him to make pasta and he made half a box for our family of 4 because “it said that was 4 servings“ so my only conclusion is that he has never made pasta before in his entire life?!!??

People are going to clown on this but we need to remember that planning for local context is important: a city with Los Angeles, California’s semi-arid Mediterranean climate only gets sunshine ~300 days a year; so it’s important to make sure you can never ever find shade in the middle of the day.

"Zero of those people have been killed by e-bikes or e-scooters,” said Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso. “Yet here we are at a hearing [on] 21 bills aimed at regulating e-bikes and e-scooters. None are about regulating dangerous driving and only two are about infrastructure.”

Mom tried to give me investing advice last night so I told her I just have stuff in target date funds and index funds which is when I found out all of the individual companies she‘s invested in have tanked but she‘s “made up for it in silver and gold.” exhausting.

If we're going to have a death penalty it should be firing squad. 5 bullets to the head do quick work. There's no kind, compassionate way to kill someone. Let people see what it is that they support.

I heard Choosing Texas the morning of the viral skeet in an outdoor Peloton running class (the class was playing popular songs of the summer; I’d chosen it because I wanted to hear Drop Dead). It’s where I learn about 90% of new music to be honest.

Eric and I went to a dance party for 40ish year olds and the music was deafeningly, painfully loud. We'd both brought our earplugs, and even with them in it was too loud. If we hadn't we would have left.

Allowing the most powerful segment of society to opt out of public services inevitably makes public services worse. This is why the existence of private schools inevitably makes public schools worse. A simple fact that seems hard for many to admit. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/private-sc...
