Good Guys Don’t Rape - C. J. Pascoe, Jocelyn A. Hollander, 2016

If you want to understand why so much of the Epstein coverage feels so weirdly icky and bad faith, this article gets at the main dynamic I’m seeing.

I do think Japanese people are aware of this phenomenon, a sort of Japan-specific Murphy's law. it explains why every depiction of Godzilla targets Tokyo first

when I lived in Tokyo it felt like storms only ever happened on weekends and holidays. which of course were the days I worked the most as an eikaiwa instructor

cooking has a bootstrapping problem for sure. shit gets way easier once you have the right tools and staples

I remember reading in a magazine a million years ago to bring a little bag of coffee beans with you when shopping for a fragrance. you sniff the coffee beans between each fragrance and supposedly it'll reset your sense of smell so you don't get nose-blind

also also, we have a stack of these 6" prep bowls, which I learned about from the restaurant I worked at a decade ago. so ridiculously useful for every little thing: prep work, snacks, sauces, etc.

and they're super easy to shove in the dishwasher between glasses and bowls. last forever too

dishes did get a lot easier when I stopped having so much back pain, lightheadedness, and fatigue. plus after that, attempting to cook at all was no longer an impossibility
