A Thing Or Two We’re Doing Besides Cleaning Up
The incense, outdoor furniture, and femme sandals conversation you didn’t know your Monday needed, this week on our Thingies episode with guest Collier Meyerson. If you could use a new podcast that’s gripping—but not true crime!—Collier’s Love Thy Neighbor might be precisely what you’re after, and if you’re in the market for a new books, we have many ideas on that front, too.

Refining my rag-rug Etsy search to “1960s and 1970s Turkish kilim rag rugs.” Achieving tremendous results.
Requesting more food content like this food content—the “Ask Digestivo” installments especially.
Learning about ancient abortion meds (and the murky origins of the Hippocratic oath).
Sourcing books that take place in a specific locale with just a zipcode search. Thrilled to unearth that Indian-American Muslim teen romance set near my hometown, tell you what!!

Urging you to snatch up tickets to POTUS now because all the buzz is going to make them hard to come by. (Also: Rachel Dratch and Vanessa Williams on one stage?!)
Mourning the loss of one of Abbot Kinney’s last interesting spots but appreciating that at least this means they’re now online.
Remembering how incredible this interview is and that I should probably make a habit of rereading it regularly.
Getting answers to a question I’ve been asking for yeeeeeears.
Asking you to stick with me while I pitch you on something highly specific: A minimal briefcase is the ideal diaper bag. It’s the only shape that’s not awkward to slide under a stroller, and it pops easily into any tote. Bonus: A travel potty fits perfectly if you’re at that stage of life. Okay, I’m done. (Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, etc.)
