The Drop
- Cleft Notes. I’ve been playing around with a lot of AI-powered voice notes apps, and this one may be the finest. You simply talk, and the app turns your unordered ideas into perfectly formatted notes– which you can constantly simply toggle back into your records.
- A Gentleman in Moscow Amor Towles’ book is an all-timer, and the program– starring Ewan McGregor as a count living under home arrest in an expensive hotel, I swear, it’s more interesting than it sounds– appears like it holds up quite well. I may even spend for Paramount Plus for this.
- The Anxious Generationby Jonathan Haidt. Bear in mind that Atlantic story about the result of phones and social networks on kids that went mega-viral a number of weeks ago? This is the book variation. I do not constantly like Haidt’s concepts or mindset, however up until now, I’m taking this book simply as a series of discussion beginners about how to be a moms and dad (and a kid, and an individual) in the modern-day world. There’s a lot to chew on here.
- Steve! (martin) a documentary in 2 pieces This doc is three-plus hours long, which is a great deal of time to invest with Steve Martin. It’s Steve Martin!
