This is completely bonkers and I want an entire documentary just about how they made it
Oh this is just *delightful*: for the opening of his documentary on the history of music on SNL, Questlove produced “a high-speed, six-minute DJ mix of SNL music highlights”. So good you’ll want to watch it way more than just once. [kottke.org]

Every year I buy a bunch of gift cards to local restaurants as gifts for family members. Every year I’m surprised that only like 10-20% of the local restaurants I find have a way to purchase a gift card directly on the website, so for every 15 sites I visit, I’m getting like 1 or 2 gift cards.

Field report from Munich: the Christmas markets are indeed magical 🎄 💫

Just landed in Munich, Santa was there, and the bag handlers (elves, I assume?) put these Santa chocolates in the handle of each one. I’ve never been so delighted in my life.

Listening was very on-brand this year. Everywhere has been my top jam lately. Cake forever. Being Dead was my fave band discovery at SXSW. Loved Texas Hold ‘Em. Taylor remains queen.

2yo is referring to numbers as “countings” 😭
December 2, 2024 at 11:08 PM
The #1 piece of clothing I wish I owned is my HS math team shirt, which was a navy and white polo with a number on the back. The number was the same for everyone, 2^0, because “second to none, we’re number one”. Absolute perfection.

I’ve had a bunch of referral requests/questions lately which is great because I’d love to refer and work with you wonderful people.

Thing is, I can’t refer folks after they’ve applied. If you’re interested, best to reach out before applying! I know every co is different so wanted to PSA :)
