What it comes down to is: Should beautiful, interesting, entertaining things exist in the world, and should we spend our time making them?

Once on a rush-hour train a very small woman got caught in a crowded spot that was not within arm's reach of anything to hold onto. As the train chugged into motion, I reached my hand out for her to hold onto for stability. We held hands in the air from 96th St. to 72nd St. and never spoke a word
everyone tell me your favorite subway interactions. one time this older dude sat down next to me, called me a snow bunny, and opened his bag to show me that it contained piles of banded cash

“I gave my life to Christ in the Cracker Barrel parking lot” sounds like the filthiest euphemism I have ever heard.

My wife is in Vogue shitting on your AI-generated "art" 💜 www.vogue.com/article/matt...
![Well, everything. The death of art. [Laughs.] A thing that I’ve been struck by in the last year of tech development around art is that what makes us human is making art, even if you’re not a professional artist. This is kind of corny, but I think about cavemen, right? One of the first things we ever did as a species was put our handprints on a wall, and it’s just this drive that has always been there. It’ll always be there. And I think it’s preposterous that these people are suggesting that they develop this technology, and the first thing they want to eliminate is art, so you have more time to…what, email? I don’t know what they think I’m going to do with my fucking day. Most of the population is not artists, but a lot of the population has artistic hobbies, and if you replace that with a computer doing it for you or whatever, it’s just pointless. I think there’s a death drive in these people, almost, and an actual hatred of artists; they are jealous of people with imagination because they don’t have one, and they almost consciously want to eliminate it.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:obalt57atoxc2zooldtuur75/bafkreifnjtvupzmkqg7cggiv2z5nckzpp5yd2sm7h5gg2kq3plbwv2btuy@jpeg)

‘Tinsel’ comes from old French ‘estinceler’ - to sparkle.
‘Bauble’ comes from Old French ‘baubel’ - a child’s toy.
'Mistletoe' is thought to translate literally as 'dung twig'. 'Toe' meant twig in Old English. 'Mistle' derives from a Germanic word which meant 'dung' or 'filth'.
