  1. Threading is getting fragile so I’m backing this out to the main thread: what I thought would be the fifth, sixth, or maybe seventh book of the year turned out to be my eight. Such is the tragic unpredictability of having a full shelf of in-progress and to-read nonsense.

    Eighth book of the year: The Museum of Eterna’s Novel (The First Good Novel) by Macedonio Fernández ( https://www.rochester.edu/College/translation/threepercent/2010/12/01/museum-of-eternas-novel-the-first-good-novel/)

    The Rochester “Three Percent” review closes with a lovely summary.

  2. Made a 16" NY-style pizza last night in the Ooni

    it looks a lot better than it was!

    Large, round peperoni pizza home-fired in a gas ooni koda, well leopard spotted mozza, cupped pepperonis, perfectly charred and shaped crust (ok, the bit around 2 o’clock around is actually burned)under baked bottom on account of experimenting w/ both a pizza-ring and a lower (~550F) launch temperature while fucking up and using too much cheese and sauce

  3. Warms the cockles of my bureaucratic heart to see a team of competent workers swoop in, protect other workers, and prevent losses for debtors (while realizing losses for risk takers): this must be what it feels like to “send in the troops”

  5. Silly nonsense update, i’ve completed the seventy or eighty prologues to The Museum of Eterna’s Novel (The First Good Novel) by Macedonio Fernández and would like to congratulate myself for not posting out of context paragraphs of it this entire time like this one, which it is full of. now to start the novel itself

    three paragraphs of mid prologue boasting, thanking readers of bad posts for staying committed to reading posts while waiting for the first good post to come along, of which this is but one of dozens of prologues, and thanking the bad posters for posting all the bad posts, which keep said readers reading, because this is why they will still be readers who read said first good post

  7. Seventh book: “Good Strategy Bad Strategy: The Difference and Why It Matters” by Richard P. Rumelt.

    Read this one for work and had a few people I’m “doing strategy” at work with read it too. They generally like it a lot so far.

    I’m a big hater of most business (generally: airport) books full of hindsight, anecdote cherry picking and etc. This one has all of those things, but reads more like a memoir, which helps a lot. Anyway, I finished it. Parts were good, even.

    Prayer plant staying up till 3am watching infomercialsThis is "Prayer plant staying up till 3am watching infomercials" by gravely on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.Vimeo

    Last night I captured a time lapse video of about 8 hours of our red and green prayer plants (9:30PM to 5:30AM) finishing their evening stretches and then relaxing into morning, as they do most days.

    I think it turned out kinda neat.
