Cream cheese, avocado 🥑 and (a kinda) poached egg. I love when a restaurant realizes that your mood for the entire day depends on their meal, and take that responsibility seriously

The wandering mind at home as depicted in´The Whispering Game’ by Alice Herbst, oil painting and oil pastel on a linen canvas Unusual ability to capture introspective states during ordinary moments, typically on regular days at home. The comfort we afford in our own homes is often taken for granted, yet it still triggers all-consuming realizations

Being hopeful in early-stage startups means sending that hiring email to the same engineer after sending messages 3 different times, 9 (!!!) months ago that are still unanswered, even though he tweets about wanting this job 😶

Bought Sony WF-1000XM3 wireless headphones - silver some time ago because these were supposed to be the best at 'active noise cancellation' - let's just say, they didn't mute the world as much as I'd hoped. Anyway, I lost them and already miss how judgmental they were. Sony headphones app is jam-packed with features, including identifying new moods + location. So every now and then, I'd get a notification like 'we found a new mood, wanna check it out?' and it was always something like 'you like transparent mode, 📍living room' or 'you want active noise cancellation turned off, 📍bedroom' !!!! I mean, I'm occasionally moody, but never that moody 😒 😒

2. (re-reading) Finite and Infinite games | James P. Carse Highly advise reading this original book - instead of the various superficial corporate adaptations of it.
