"Remember when we all took a number when we entered the highway, and we can't pass the merge until our number is called?"
You’re standing in a long line at the deli. A guy walks in behind you, shifts to your left to walk next to the line and slides in front of the guy several people ahead of you. An urban planner reminds you that really is the most efficient way of managing a line.

Loudspeaker announcement while grocery shopping: the store will be closing in 30 minutes. You immediately abandon your cart and leave the store, because continuing to shop is cheating.

You're checking out at ALDI, only one register open, long line of shoppers waiting. A second register opens up. No one is allowed to use the open register because that would be cheating.

I have been playing around with some long exposure shots that show some beautiful effects with our orbital motion. City lights are turned into streaks across the earth, and lightning storms form a speckled pattern during these several-minute exposures.

Announcing a profound partnership between National Design Studio and Sec Kennedy, Sec Rollins, CMS Administrator Oz, and FDA Commissioner Makary to bring the new Dietary Guidelines to life in the form of the New Pyramid. Shocking how misleading the one hanging in my second grade classroom was. Even more surprising would have been to tell my younger self one day I’d help redesign it. Eat whole foods, and enjoy realfood.gov @ndstudio @SecKennedy @SecRollins @DrOzCMS @DrMakaryFDA @PressSec @WhiteHouse @RapidResponse47
Today, under the leadership of President Trump, Secretary Kennedy, and Secretary Rollins, we announce the most significant shift in federal nutrition guidance in American history. For the first time, we're calling out the dangers of highly-processed foods and rebuilding a broken system from the ground up with gold-standard science and common sense. National Design Studio is proud to introduce realfood.gov. 🥦

Why is it this shape? It could be any shape (kei truck comes to mind), but they gave it a vacant engine compartment up front, which means a smaller cargo area in the back. Why? Why would you design a whole vehicle from scratch with no engine and make it this shape?

Daylight Savings is Trans Time Imagine the audacity of forcing everyone else to change their clocks to a fake time so that you can feel better about how much daylight you experience. The sun is highest in the sky around noon, not 1pm. The end.

Define "live"
I bet my mortgage Bryan Johnson will live to at least 200. Not because he spends $2,000,000/year biohacking his body. But because he developed the most evidence-based longevity blueprint anyone can follow for free:🧵

I would bet that Walmart has the most shopping carts of any business on the planet. But they haven't figured out how to make them not stick to each other when you just want to pull one out of the stall.

How much money do you think you've spent in your lifetime? Do you think you've spent $1 million (only personal finances, not business)? How old were you, or will you be, when you cross the million mark?

The end of an era. I used @mint for budgeting and finance tracking for nearly a decade, but shifted to @EveryDollar when it launched 9 years ago. The Mint site is closed now, but i was still able to download all my transactions in a single CSV via the button on this page.

One day i'll get around to aggregating all my transactions so i can make some fun charts like lifetime networth, or how much i've ever spent at Kroger, or the all-inclusive cost to operate a vehicle.
