Just found out the average pair of jeans uses over 1,800 gallons of water to make, which I read in a book on textile production last week.

Can we talk about the guy on the 8:05 bus who brought a full keyboard to practice on

People get so mad about small public annoyances but miss the quiet focus around them. It's like we're trained to notice the loudest thing in the room. There's a whole other layer of calm happening if you just look for it.

Tried a 'no mow' patch with clover in my yard this spring

Wait, how do you even spot a ground-nesting bee?

Just found out the 'Friends' fountain intro took over 100 tries to film

Honestly, that seems like a pretty normal amount of takes for something that tricky.

This old welder in a Galveston shipyard told me something I still think about

Wait, what if you're working with something that fights back though? I had a teacher who always said "let the tool do the work" but on super gunked up or rusted metal, that feels wrong. Sometimes you gotta lean into it and fight a little at the start to break through. Letting the tool glide only works once the surface is ready.

Hot take: I thought the harbor in Astoria was just a muddy mess until I saw the pilings up close.

Have you ever seen those plastic lobster traps after just one season? I pulled an old one up off the bottom of Casco Bay last year and it was like a solid block of mussels and seaweed, you could barely see the wire. It's wild how fast a surface becomes a home.
