Something about burning paper incense that makes you feel sooooo rich. Maybe because it’s like you’re literally burning money. Maybe it’s because these are from a company that dates back 800 years. Either way this is a great use of $28.

I'm obsessed with these little paper incense that you fold and leave burning in a dish. It's like a super quick hit of incense, and then it's gone in a couple of minutes. Perfect for bathroom and cooking smells, and also gives you an excuse to set tiny fires.

oldie but a goodie, room refreshers for the incense curious, and it’s fun to burn paper

This goes against the grain of my anxiety riddled brain, but if you find yourself in a bout of unemployment I encourage you to lean in. From what I read, this very platform would not exist were it not for unemployment. Granted I know this perspective sounds like and is a privileged take, but just know I have no idea where next month’s rent is coming from. I find that the psychic terror of not making money creeps in when I’m most idle, so I try to do one or more of these things a day to keep that feeling at bay:
- Walk my dog
- Go to a museum
- Research for creative projects
- Make said creative projects
- Call a friend
- Go to the gym
- Read a book or long form journalism
- Cook
- Clean my house
Eventually I know that the capitalist grind will rear its ugly head, as it always does, but for a brief moment in time it’s nice to just shut the door on its face.

Most New Yorkers loathe midtown, but I’m not one of them. Name another neighborhood where you can find the city’s most iconic institutions (Keens, Grand Central Oyster Bar, NYPL), specialty material stores (B&H Fabric, Toho, Jamali), great baked goods (Culture, Rose Bakery, Cafe D’Avignon) Japanese grocery stores (Dainobu, Katagiri), all your doctor’s offices, restaurants that stand up to their hype (Sugarfish, Lodi) and your corporate basics (Uniqlo, Muji)? Excuse me…I’m waiting. What I love most about midtown is that it’s an area for getting shit done. No lollygaggers allowed!

- For when you need a buffer between you and the world.
- Like wearing a very thin turtleneck and pulling it over half your face.
