pancakes & french toast

This week is a Billy Joel song… and (SOMEHOW) it’s only Monday

Congrats!!

I’m now making tea 🫖

You’re in luck (if you still wanna reschedule):

This is where it went… you should email them now!

@boldandbodacious.bsky.social you had the same reaction as my (very smart & kind) bestie when I confusingly said the same thing! We need to convince them to put a sample {cookie} table right outside!

The Latina in Governor Gavin Newsom’s social media team Governor Gavin Newsom has cracked the social media code.

It’s led by Camille Zapata! @camillezapata.bsky.social

Oh I meant it as a fact from the piece! It really was well done. Did not mean it as a dunk on you — thx for posting it!

the data we need!

would actually like to see this chart

Finally, insurance works!

Thank you!

where’s a good place (or book) to learn more, concerning the latter

and rent control has always been a desired outcome of renting — it was even on Seinfeld! somehow (be it media, critics or campaigns) so many so called ‘normal’ services that gov. provided in the 20th century are suddenly being labeled as ‘radical’ today.

I don’t believe those things are really ‘radical’ though — America had those things in the (fairly recent) past.

Even the Great Depression had *federally funded* soup kitchens. Thx (partly) to the dissolution of the Robinson-Patman Act it just became price-prohibitive to be a grocer w/o a monopoly

When we were a proper company, cartoon characters didn’t just vote. They threw their hats in the ring.

In Medieval European cities and towns, people regularly bought cooked food (often pies, stews, or roasted meat) from cookshops. Many people had no oven at home. The modern media we get our ideas about medieval life from doesn't include these, so most people don't realise.

You’re doing the best you can do.

This is cool knowledge! Also, they were doing this in Italy as late as the 1970’s (fam who did studyabroad said their host family (and the other families they met) once a week would drive with bread in the trunk to be baked — the locals even offered a taste test b/c everyone had a different recipe)

“Check the racks for your packs, the seats for your treats, and check the floors before you open the doors and party hearty but don’t get too tipsy in Poughkeepsie” Five stars, no notes

anyway, are babies the ones purchasing cute milk containers with their credit cards?

can’t help but see how limiting happiness in one’s/other’s lives to appease a performative sense of buying/being seen as an adult, while not actually acting as one (with learned responsibility & compassion), has led the world to so act so un-adult-like in so many ways

*another’s life

Perhaps that’s an oversimplification, but it’s a starting point to think about what’s possible & how any person can help another’s be a little better

If there’s info to help, why not share! CA/EU guidelines help! It really is frustrating we have an entire carve-out for something that can be so necessary to function properly. I just kind of think about how smoking/water Req. are different in other counties & perhaps worldwide it all balances out

it’s not perfect, but www.consumerlab.com independently tests a bunch of supplements (among other things). the EU also regulates vitamins as food, so you could take a peek at brands manufactured there

There needs to be an ‘infrastructure month’ where we talk about all the infrastructure that makes or breaks the real infrastructure that keeps everything afloat
