    I love researching for work on , because it often turns up delightful ephemera, like this tape that was played in KMart in Oct. 1989. I'm grooving to the synthy stuff as I type.

    The best thing you will read on the internet today is this guy and a his fellow subway riders “coming together as New Yorkers to make a plan” to rescue a black cat who wandered on to the M train. The story will melt your frozen heart.

    It’s also surprising that more patients don’t insist on control of their surgeries.

    In film, we take the idea of auteurs for granted; it’s surprising that more writers don’t insist on control of the design of their own books. This is from Judith Schalansky’s “Inventory of Losses,” which is like if Sebald and Anne Carson’s books fell in love & had a book baby
