What do you think Carlos Ghosn is up to right now?
Back in January 2020 it felt like Carlos Ghosn’s great escape from Japan was going to be one of the top stories of the year, and now nobody cares.
I guess it’s 8am in Lebanon and he’s probably having breakfast.
Carlos Ghosn probably has really mixed feelings about the pandemic, huh?
It’s not like he’d be taking advantage of international travel if it were possible.
Anyway I feel like it’s inevitable that Tony Shalhoub plays him in a movie and I’m looking forward to seeing it.

Literally all the time I see people wearing things I think they shouldn’t. It would be exhausting if I let that bother me.
There was a trend a couple years ago with men wearing crop tops, if we survived that we’ll survive some people wearing masks long after they’re useful.
Although, I dunno, it might be kind of fun if we had a new social norm where you could scold people in public for wearing something tacky

What kind of vegetable would you serve alongside swordfish cooked this way? (This is from Julia Child's The Way to Cook) Image
Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to evaluate the asparagus and the summer squash at the market and pick what looks good.
I’m going to give this a shot: cooksillustrated.com/recipes/11410-…

Apropos of absolutely nothing, one thing I hated about the movie Love, Simon was the implication that the difficulty of coming out was an excuse for behaving extremely inconsiderately to the innocent people around you.
Relatedly, Happiest Season pulled its punch. Kristen Stewart should have run off with Aubrey Plaza and left Mackenzie Davis with her emotionally stunted family.
(Spoiler alert)

A nonsense position.
This account is of course full of retweets of the most annoying #resistance personalities.

You know what's grim? Cauliflower "rice."
Tastes gross, makes your house smell absolutely foul if you heat it at home, not filling, a declaration that low-carb diets are pain and suffering.
It annoys me when the dairy lobby tries to stop people from using terms like "almond milk" but I would absolutely get behind an effort from the rice lobby to stop people from selling cauliflower products as "rice."

YES. If the Feds are going to throw tens of billions of dollars at New York-area commuter railroads, they should condition that funding on NJT and the MTA integrating their operations to through-run trains and better use existing capacity at Penn Station. city-journal.org/penn-station-e…
The money that’s supposed to be used for Penn Station South could pay for a whole lot of rolling stock and electrification upgrades that would enable the railroads to share more operations and spend less time clogging the existing 21(!) tracks at Penn Station.
Penn Station has a tremendous amount of capacity for a through station — it isn’t a terminal, it just gets used like one — but there has been a complete unwillingness to think about how to use that capacity more efficiently.
