Snackwell's Devils Food Cookies will be viewed by future anthropologists as a core, fundamental piece of "90's Aunt Culture." What is "90's Aunt Culture" you may ask? See below for some of the most common examples....
Snackwell's Devils Food Cookies (1992-2022): Fudgy chocolate cookies and a layer of marshmallow, covered in chocolate. As was the style in the 90's, they were fat-free and marketed as a healthier dessert, despite their high sugar content.

NY is having a bad flu season. More hospitalizations last week than any week on record.

Health authorities are encouraging everyone aged 6mo+ to get the flu vax (it's not too late).

Find a provider here: on.nyc.gov/getvaccinated. You can filter for sites where there's no cost for the uninsured.

We were talking the other day about the decline of intercity bus in New England but it’s nationwide. In cities you need trains for capacity, at longer distances you need trains for speed, but I do think the liberal focus on rail has hurt intercity buses for the distances & OD pairs they work for.
I've been looking through old state transit reports recently, and was astounded at the fact that in 1976 Washington's intercity bus network carried 30 million passengers, half as many as every transit agency in the state at that time. Spokane had nearly 40 daily one way trips to different cities.

Hope we can all find something in life we love as much as Brigitte Bardot loved getting convicted and fined for inciting racial hatred by a French court.

My new year's resolution this year, as every year, is to be a more available, supportive friend as well as an increasingly looming, formidable enemy.

My favourite thing about the Bakerloop London Buses is that they have the Bakerloo line Moquette pattern on their seats.

서울일러스트페어에서 너무 재미난 책을 발견해서 기록해본다

김병진 작가님의 서울 100경

서울(605.2km²)을 100개(6.052km²)로 나눠 공간을 그린 그림인데, 사고방식이 신기하고 접근이 구체적이라서 흥미로웠다

아니 누가 서울 좀 그려보겠다고
체계적 표준추출법을 참고해 서울 지도에 격자선을 그려 평균적인 서울의 모습을 추출하냐구 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

그렇게 도출해낸 '평균적 서울'이 어떻게 나뉘던 상관치 않고 얄짤없이 잘라서 '그려진' 모습이 재미있었다.

Fascinating 2008 paper on "Redefining fire safety in Swedish high-rise buildings" speaks to risk-informed design of single exit stair high-rise buildings in Sweden, featuring the Turning Torso (54 storeys, residential/offices) and the Kista Science Tower (31 storeys, offices)
