So many bad design trends and decisions in one framing shot
Yes, the obvious intoxication/incoherence is probably more important but:
*barn door over empty bookcase
*everything is beige
*terrible horse art
*beige stone accent wall, with mounted TV (NO!)
*ubiquitous HGTV carriage light fixture
*fake beams
*divorced dad mega mansion vibe
why does a bookcase need a barn door? it does not. barn doors should be used incredibly sparingly, like when there's utterly no room for swing or, far more rarely than people realize, there's a coherent aesthetic at play.
the only thing missing from this tableau is a Joanna Gaines "modern farmhouse" sign that said

1/ I'm sorry but this piece has several data/categorization flaws that need to be called out.
2/ Deep in the source credits comes this: "Axios created five groups of publishers based on assessments of their news bias, in consultation with news bias ranking service NewsGuard." But NewsGuard specifically categorizes us as "left-leaning", not "far left" Image
3/ I mean, I'd quibble with the one ding Newsguard gave us but if Axios is going to use their sorting methodology, then you don't get to arbitrarily reassign us to "far left" just because it better fits your bullet points thesis.

Scoop: The FBI searched the house of a Giuliani associate yesterday. by @dfriedman33 and @russchoma motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
"Rudy Giuliani is a loose cannon, rolling around the Oval Office with another loose cannon, namely the president, and chaos is developing," --Rep. Garamendi motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
Biggest week in Rudy we've had for awhile: motherjones.com/mojo-wire/2021…

Haven't read this piece yet but I'm using it as an excuse to remind/introduce you to this 80stastic song about Cézanne by The Special Guests
Who made it into the mission of this music promoter who was (is?) attempting to track down the music of old college bands and digitize them: wsj.com/articles/SB100…
Columbia! I hear I was listening to them at Carleton. That's kind of amazing, given the tech/comms of the day.

Well this is going to take me down a Regency era publication rabbit hole
He’s a jerk, but at least he’s a reader!
Ah, I forgot, he reveals himself to be not such a jerk.

We should go back to barn raising ethos. Like if a few friends showed up to help me get some household/garden chore done, I’d happily do same.

If you’ve worked out an enduring, rotating labor exchange, tell me how you arranged?
Coming out of isolation means that getting together to help somebody clear out their basement sound like a blast 😹
I think it would work like Lise's: ~4 or 5 households (do they all need to be friends already?) that rotate a designated chunk of time (~4 hrs, every second Sunday?). Person getting the labor provides food (or maybe its a potluck?) and for sure drinks.

Ted Talk-ification is officially a disease. Don't even care if this is parody. It's become a pox on society that enables or demands others become psychopathic extrovert power pointers.

That still scams investors, among others.
Like: Ted Talks are what gave us Theranos. Fight me.
Would it shock you to later learn that Ted Talks is the new Dianetics? Not me!

Also audiences of rich white people digesting the oft-practiced routines of nice scholars...idk it's just become gross.
