Switzerland will be spared.

1970s Rio had insane aura. You had gritty disgusting brutalist commie architecture mixed with colonial areas all immersed in sun, drug running, and a based rightist dictatorship. A truly rare aesthetic, BAP speaks of this.

Watch City of God if you haven’t.

RIP to a legend

[Bobby Weir @BobWeir]

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Bobby Weir. We send him off the way he sent so many of us on our way: with a farewell that isn’t an ending, but a blessing.  A reward for a life worth livin'. https://t.co/2qdBbh80v1

“Breakdown 1975” is such a cool look back at a wild time in America. The country was in perpetual turmoil and it sparked such remarkable film and art. Strong rec. @netflix Merry Christmas Eve 🎁

Good article. Choice quote:

"....those who spend a lifetime delaying gratification may one day find themselves rich in savings but poor in memories, having sacrificed too much joy at the altar of compounding interest.

One of the best interviews I've ever seen...North Korean security official talk about his escape to the South Korea. The part about how and his friend swam for eight straight hours is insane:

Bad writing advice 😄
Always start writing your story on chapter 2… because you’ll want to begin by telling people what the hell’s going on, but these days all books/TV episodes start with action and the consumer is clueless as to the context for ages.

@qhardy Great author

What does everyone think of the new wheel of time TV series?

I still do feel like I'm cheating with Podcasts, though. The physical act of picking up a book is a more decisive action to go into another world, then putting in earplugs.

[Joseph Van Buskirk @jvbcreate]

Podcasts vs Books....Decisions I've been struggling with lately
