There is enough bad news online to keep me up at night so I subscribe to Nice News which reminds me that there are bright lights of humanity glimmering in our world.

i like it cause it helps me stay present and connect with others, with what they’re going through.
i’m always in on what’s going on around the world and also have the chance to learn from amazing professionals.
i do read horrible sad stuff everyday, and that affects my mental health a little bit. but for now, it’s a great job :)

A streaming goldmine for cinephiles, Criterion Channel is the antidote to superhero fatigue. I may not like everything but I always learn something and very often fall in love with cinema all over again.  Some Favorites: In the Mood for Love starring the impossibly beautiful Maggie Cheung; Jean-Luc Godard on the Dick Cavett show; and Everybody Rides the Carousel, a trippy animated film by John and Faith Hubley. The film is based on the psychologist Erik Erikson’s theories of human development from birth to death. The hand painted watercolors are a feast for the eyes. The mostly jazz score features the legends Dizzy Gilespie and Benny Carter. It has some of the best voice acting I’ve ever heard in a film. In fact, I think I’m going to watch it again tonight. (I have to h/t my daughter Mathilda for introducing me to the film.)

Often, illustrated/art books have text that is incidental, but this one is really well written and engaging. Reading about Gus’s journey to create art both inside and outside of “the system” is incredibly informative and inspiring.

Created by PJ Vogt and Sruthi Pinnamaneni, Search Engine is a podcast for the pathologically curious (raises hand). The premise is “No question too big, no question too small.” PJ covers everything from “How sad are the monkeys in the zoo? to “What’s it like to slowly go blind?” to “How do you survive fame?” (full disclosure: I contribute to this one). Funny, thought- provoking, and stealth emotional
