Condensation // 2

 

Hi! It's very hot over here in LA (and the rest of Cali from what I'm hearing?). Hope wherever you are you are staying cool and have had a good week. Here's what I've been up to.

Reading

The DMV Reviewed Thousands of Hilarious Vanity Plate Applications Last Year. These Are Our Favorites - Los Angeles Magazine, glad to see someone finally looking out for all the MILFs out there (fair warning, it should come as no surprise that some of these plates have naughty words)

Here's the weirdest headline I saw this week:

 

Electioneering

I feel like I should just have a separate section for the election. FiveThirtyEight released their Presidential Election Forecast this week and I've been tormenting myself by playing with this 2020 Electoral Interactive Map

A bipartisan group secretly gathered to game out a contested Trump-Biden election. It wasn’t pretty - Boston Globe*

Just How Far Will Trump Go? - The Atlantic* 

They Want to Break You - Gizmodo

How Suffering Farmers May Determine Trump's Fate - The New Yorker*

*soft paywall 

Listening

its britney......

Okay Allies, Now Let’s Get in Formation! - Fanti

Lilith - Omnibus Project, this episode just hit my sweet spot of things I'm interested in

The score to Black Panther by Ludwig Göransson, please if you haven't already listen to the Song Exploder episode about the Killmonger track

Watching

Beirut explosion: Bride's photoshoot interrupted by massive blast - Global News, I was a little late to this because we were out camping but this is such a heartbreaking event. Here's a good list of places to donate to help if you are able (definitely turn down volume before playing!!!)

let's take a look at, horse - Louie Zong

Playing

Forbidden Sky with Dane! We got it as a wedding present and played it once on our honeymoon and haven't played it since. It's really fun and when you beat the game has a very fun rocket that lights up based on the circuit you made! Very cool.
