"Among the influential poetry scholars in this period, Charles Altieri comes closest to acknowledging the circumstances by which critics became mute in the face of historical crisis, though he does so, not in discussing critics, but in discussing poetry. In this passage from his powerful 1984 book, Self and Sensibility in Contemporary American Poetry, Altieri reflects on the revolutionary sixties from the vantage point of the Reagan era. In that decade, he writes,

poets felt that intense poetic experience might serve as witness and proof of the power of mind to recover numinous values trampled underfoot by the assumptions of liberal industrial society. Now that the desire to transform society, or even to transform long-standing aspects of American personality, has come to seem to many at best escapist and at worst another of the illusions Americans create to avoid the contradictions in their lives, poets have sought quieter, more distinctly personal and relativistic ways of adjusting to what seem inescapable conditions… Ours is an age that must come to terms with failed expectations and, worse, the guilt of recognizing why we held such ambitious dreams. (36–37)

This passage is exemplary of the refusal to think about the role of capital in political and literary history, for two reasons. One is that, in trying to dismiss left-wing political aspirations as psychological flaws, and approvingly citing a turn to 'quieter, more distinctly personal and relativistic ways of adjusting to what seem inescapable conditions,' Altieri ends up creating the contradiction he thinks this inward turn avoids—a contradiction between the quietude of the inward personal life, rendered as a retreat, and the force required to keep the world away from it. This contradiction has a psychic expression as well, which is the 'guilt' that Altieri, with heartbreaking candor, says attaches to having dreamed of a better world. That guilt, like the wall around a gated community, blocks further political thinking by punishing the political thinker for having dared to imagine or to work for revolutionary change.

In mentioning this guilt, Altieri touches on a powerful structure of feeling in American political life, one that has always posed problems for the left, which congeals in the idea that it is a betrayal to think against the system—a betrayal against one’s friends, one’s community, one’s art. Distantly behind this idea lies the real material threat against workers who choose to strike—the possibility that striking would threaten their family’s security, or bring down violence on them. Transposed into an academic setting, the idea seems to be that, in developing a critical analysis of capitalism, the critic forsakes daily life, the small beauties; he becomes arrogant, unable to see what’s right in front of his nose; or she becomes preachy, solipsistic, hypnotized by abstractions. If one is a critic of poetry, the too-critical critic loses the ability to perform subtle close readings."

Jury Fury

TWELVE ANGRY MEN The Alexandra Theatre, Birmingham, Monday 30th October 2023 Reginald Rose’s classic play from 1955 is doing the rounds again and it’s well worth catching even if, like me, you have seen it before.  Based on Rose’s own experience of serving on a jury, this tense, taut thriller continues to weave its engrossing spell, as a dozen increasingly tetchy males gather in a jury room to…

I would suggest picking a book that sounds interesting and using the footnotes and bibliography to find more to read. I've done that a lot :) a lot of my books have more sticky tabs or w/e in the bibliography than in the text so I don't lose stuff I'm interested in.

Hope this helps!

LIVE FROM NEW YORK

AN UNCENSORED HISTORY OF SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE AS TOLD BY ITS STARS, WRITERS, & GUESTS

by Tom Shales and James Andrew Miller

©2002; 596 pg; Little, Brown

It’s a uniquely difficult task to write a review of a book that’s an oral history told by many disparate voices about a TV show that, when this book was published, was 26 years old. Also, it’s a monster of a book, coming in at nearly 600 pages (!). But it’s such a pleasure to read what luminaries of the comedy world remember about their time on a show that, as Dan Aykroyd put it, was like “the Master’s Program in comedy.” Every single person interviewed for this book, without exception, REVERES the show. And they look back with so much love and gratitude for having had the opportunity to be a part of it, while also recalling hurt feelings, power struggles, experiences of misogyny and racism, 18-hour days (some cocaine-fueled, others not), but still, a time they all remember as the greatest days of their lives.

But it’s also hard because this book contains interview snippets with, like, 150 different people involved in the show who shared their memories. That’s a lot of different, contradictory, FUNNY viewpoints.

When SNL premiered on October 11, 1975, I was 16. I saw that first show live. There wasn’t much else to do at that age, television had always been my friend/teacher, and there were only three channels available back then (and sometimes, if you were lucky, a PBS station). I had no idea WHAT this weird new show was about, but I will never forget seeing the very first cold open: John Belushi and Michael O’Donoghue (head writer) do a sketch titled simply, “Wolverines.” If you haven’t seen it, you should, because none of us, nobody, had ever seen anything like it on TV or anywhere else:

undefined

Delightful, strange, and HILARIOUS. The show has changed in many ways since those days, but the premise and the format have basically stayed the same, and well past the publication of this book, up to and including last Saturday’s 47th season opener. This show has been on the air, performed the same way as the first show, for FORTY-SEVEN YEARS straight. Just think about that. How is it possible? This particular oral history strongly suggests that the main reason for its longevity is one man: Lorne Michaels.

Lorne is the rock of SNL. He liked to hire unknowns—potential comedic geniuses who were crushing it in the comedy clubs of Chicago, L.A., and New York, then throw them together in a high-pressure environment and see what resulted. The performers, writers, and writer-performers (almost all performers had to write for themselves and castmates, too) are LEGENDARY. I’m going to give you a PARTIAL list of the comedians who passed through SNL in some capacity at some point in their careers:

John Belushi

Gilda Radner

Dan Aykroyd

Garrett Morris

Chevy Chase

Jane Curtin

Bill Murray

Al Franken

Eddie Murphy

Joe Piscopo

Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Billy Crystal

Martin Short

Christopher Guest

Robert Downey, Jr. (True! For one forgettable season in 1980.)

Anthony Michael Hall

Damon Wayans

Jon Lovitz

Dana Carvey

Dennis Miller

Kevin Nealon

Conan O’Brien

Larry David

Bob Odenkirk

Phil Hartman

Chris Farley

Mike Myers

Adam Sandler

David Spade

Chris Rock

Rob Schneider

Norm Macdonald

Will Ferrell

Jimmy Fallon

Colin Quinn

Tina Fey

Tracy Morgan

Molly Shannon

Maya Rudolph

Chris Kattan

Rachel Dratch

Every person on this list still living at the time gave extensive interviews for this book. There are segments from guest hosts like Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, John Goodman, Lily Tomlin, and Robin Williams. Executives behind the curtain, producers, casting agents, and actual titans of the entertainment industry also contributed excellent background on the “suits” and the power they had (or didn’t!) over the show’s content, personnel, and format.

I mean, that is a mindblowing list, and again, this is only up to roughly 2001! None of these people are still there now, but their influence is everywhere. I feel it every time I watch. I’m a comedy person. I LOVE to laugh. I’m definitely the target audience, so I bought this book when it was first published in hardback, and have hung onto it through several major book downsizes I’ve done over the years. I remember my first read as just an immensely enjoyable experience—an epic dive into all this fascinating background minutiae. And just exactly how do they write and perform these 90 minutes, every Saturday night from 30 Rock, at 11:30pm, live without a net, year after year? The answer to that is in these pages, and it’s a process of extraordinarily hard work done by all these talented people, week after week.

Nobody remembers the name Charles Rocket, but he was a main cast member in the 1980-81 season. He said “fuck” on air, the censors didn’t catch it in time, and the then-executive producer, Jean Doumanian, was fired as a result. She took over from Lorne after the first five, magical, original-cast years. She lasted 10 whole months, and was replaced by the network suit who’d gotten SNL on the air, together with Lorne, in the beginning. His name was Dick Ebersol, and he lasted four years. The show was in a grave decline in the early eighties. Everyone left when Lorne did—all the brilliant, iconoclastic, talented writers who were tuned into the specific tone SNL had maintained for its first five years were gone. Lorne returned in 1985, did the work, and turned the course of the show around. In later years, they kind of had a revolving door policy: you might have quit, you might have been fired, but if you bided your time and did good work somewhere else, you could always ask to come back (even if only for one show).

This is a recurring cycle in this show’s history—there’s an upward trend of “oh, everybody watches this show and it’s funny and relevant and irreverent simultaneously” followed by years when the quality declined so much the media started referring to the show as “Saturday Night Dead.” Then the evolution begins anew as changes are made/happen. Cast members and writers come and go (in many cases, fired outright), and so the phoenix rises. Again.

The huge tragedies the show has survived are detailed extensively, and the quotes and interview segments used are very emotional. The death of John Belushi from an overdose at age 33, in 1982, devastated everyone who knew him. His death left an enduring legacy on the 17th floor at 30 Rock, the show’s home since day one—no more drug use at work. At least not openly. And if that seems really weird from a 2021 perspective, I’m telling you—the seventies were different. People quoted in this book who were there for those first five seasons tell of a pervasive smell of weed emanating from the offices. Coke was ubiquitous. Nobody knew Belushi used heroin, and generally, people simply didn’t know such a new and “innocuous” drug like cocaine could, in fact, kill you. And after John died, drugs vanished from the offices, studios, and sets. Gilda Radner’s death of ovarian cancer in 1989 was a similar shock. But it was the accidental overdose of Chris Farley in 1997, from the same drug combination that killed his idol, Belushi, and at the same age of 33, that was maybe more personally devastating to the cast. Farley, Adam Sandler, David Spade, and Chris Rock were an extremely close-knit group who had all come onto the show together and subsequently had become lifelong friends, and they’d also done some of their best work of their careers together. Chris died mid-season, and the heartbreak wouldn’t end there, because five months later, in May of 1998, the world learned that former cast member Phil Hartman, considered the “glue” of the show during his years in the cast, had been shot and killed by his wife, who then shot and killed herself.

The book doesn’t linger on the worst times, however, and there are plenty of wonderful stories and funny anecdotes. The majority of people who worked on the show describe it as exhilarating. It’s a purely joyful thing when a group of highly motivated people produce a finished product that is also a quality product. The barometer of quality with this group is simple: to KILL. To leave the audience laughing. In the earliest days, the prevailing attitude was, “WE think this is funny, and if you don’t, you’re WRONG!” I got the impression that while they loved to make themselves laugh, they were acutely aware that their humor needed to translate to an audience. Everyone ever involved has been so, so good at that, and Lorne, with his incomparable instinct, has always had the final cut.

Notable Quotes:

On Belushi:

Lorne Michaels: “In the beginning, there were two things John didn’t do: he wouldn’t do drag, because it didn’t fit his description of what he should be doing. And he didn’t do pieces that Anne [Beatty, a writer) or Rosie [Shuster, Lorne’s wife and writer] wrote. So somebody would have to say a guy had written it. Yet he was very attached to Gilda and Laraine [Newman, original cast member.]”

On the show’s youthful appeal:

Steve Martin: “When you’re young, you have way fewer taboo topics, and then as you go through life and you have experiences with people getting cancer and dying and all the things you would have made fun of, then you don’t make fun of them anymore. So rebelliousness really is the province of young people—that kind of iconoclasm.”

On writing with drugs:

Tim Kazurinsky (writer, cast): “Having grown up in the sixties, I was kind of done with my drugs by the seventies. And so here it was the eighties, and I particularly hated cocaine. And whenever a new shipment arrived on the floor, I would come in and see everybody grinding their teeth. I came in one day, and pretty much the whole floor was just craving it heavily, and I went, ‘Oh, this is not good. I’m going to write at home.’ Because everybody was running into my office with giant pupils and grinding teeth saying, ‘I’ve got an idea!’ And you know, I’ve always found that cocaine causes constipation of the brain and diarrhea of the mouth. In the time it would take to sit and listen to people’s ideas while they were coked up to the tits, I could get more work done at home.”

On the long hours in enclosed spaces:

Lorne Michaels: “I used to say that you only get so many hours that you can be with someone for a lifetime, and you can kind of use it all up in a very intense four or five years, or you can spread it over a lifetime. Friendship really needs distance and space. Not that we’re overcrowding like rats. But the schedule is built so that after three shows in a row, when people are really getting on each other’s nerves, there’s a hiatus and you get some distance from it, and you appreciate what a good place it is to work.”

On Lorne:

Tracy Morgan: “It’s like Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Whenever Luke was in trouble, Obi-Wan would come out of nowhere. That’s who Lorne Michaels is; he’s Obi-Wan. That’s what I call him. Everybody has their little nicknames for him. Chris Farley used to call him the Chief. Some people just call him boss. And some people call him Daddy. I call him Obi-Wan.”

2021 gave me new perspectives on events discussed in these pages, and it was both more fun and more time-consuming. This time, I could find and watch important moments as they occurred, via YouTube. Wikipedia helped me with individuals’ background details that weren’t familiar to me. I had many laughs and a lot of fun doing extra research. Just before I started reading, Norm Macdonald died of leukemia he’d been fighting for nine years. Nobody knew. Even Conan, arguably the closest to Norm, didn’t know he was sick. Norm got to do the popular “Weekend Update” segment after Kevin Nealon left, and he was able to snag a writer “held in awe” at the show, Jim Downey, to co-write and produce his weekly segment.

Jim and Norm decided to do “Update” with Norm giving a deadpan delivery of fake “news” one-liners as savage as they were funny. Sometimes, the audiences didn’t seem to get it. Other times, the jokes would kill. Hilariously, they started writing O.J. Simpson fake news pieces, containing jokes whose punchline invariably outright called him a murderer. O.J. had been acquitted, but that didn’t make any difference to them. Unfortunately, Don Ohlmeyer, at that time head of NBC west coast programming, was a longtime friend of O.J.’s, and he didn’t think any of it was funny. He waged an all-out assault against Jim and Norm, which eventually resulted in Norm being fired from the show. To paraphrase Norm, Ohlmeyer thought every single joke in “Update” should elicit a strong response, like laughter, cheers, and applause. Jim and Norm didn’t care if a joke didn’t get a laugh. They only cared that the jokes were good, even if most of them flew over the audience’s heads.

Re-reading this book was an immersive and highly enjoyable experience for me. I would recommend it to comedy fans, SNL fans, and fans of the talented comedians who have been a part of this extraordinary TV show. I do wish there was another book, done in the same oral-history style, covering the last 20 years. Still, I loved the experience, and it was good to spend some time with people whose work I love and admire.

Thanks to the heroic work of Catherine Corless, here are the names of the seven hundred and ninety-six children who died in a Tuam mother and baby home run by the Catholic Church in collusion with the government in Ireland, and whose bodies were thrown into a septic tank at the site pictured above. 

This was one mother and baby home. There is evidence to suggest that we can expect similar results from the many other Irish mother and baby homes (and this is without talking about Magdalene Laundries).

I’m not putting any of this under a Read More link. I’m just not.

Snowpiercer Season 2 Episode 2 Review: Smolder to Life

https://ift.tt/3akMH7w

This Snowpiercer review contains spoilers.

Snowpiercer Season 2 Episode 2

A show like Snowpiercer seems tailor-made for the winter. After all, it’s cold outside, so you might as well stay in. Sure, you’re probably still quarantined with your household after a long year, but at least you’re not stuck on a train. At least you’re not stuck on a train rattling around a frozen death world eating canned meat while waiting to become fertilizer (or canned meat yourself). As bad as things might be out here, at least it’s not Snowpiercer-bad these days; there are signs of hope everywhere, with vaccines in our world, and the recurring snowflakes seen every time the train is shown from outside.

Of course, in order to reclaim the world, Snowpiercer and the travelers along for the ride will have to survive Big Alice’s return, their own internal strife, and the machinations of the devious Mr. Wilford (Sean Bean, practically twirling a mustache). That’s making the bold assumption that Melanie’s hypothermia didn’t bring about hallucinations, and that the information found in her snow sample taken outside is accurate. In order to get any real information, they need weather equipment, and that’s the sort of thing that was stored on, you guessed it, Big Alice. The two trains will have to work together, one way or another.

Throughout the first season of Snowpiercer, Daveed Diggs’ Andre Layton was a fish out of water. He was the random tailie wandering into first class, making people uncomfortable and sticking his nose in where it wasn’t wanted to figure out the truth behind the murders in third. He was the train detective as much as he was the leader of a revolution, and while one job made the other possible, it was no less important.

Layton had to solve the murder, and as he made his way up and down the trail, the tension in his wake was always palpable. Maybe because he was a tailie, maybe because he was a visible figure of authority. Now he’s the authority, and the new train detective, Bess Till (Mickey Sumner) is walking the same beat, sticking her nose in where it doesn’t belong, and making people uncomfortable. Maybe because she’s a former brakeman. Maybe because she’s a visible figure of authority.

Snowpiercer Season 2 Trailer Reveals Sean Bean’s Role

By Alec Bojalad

Either way, it makes for a nice mirroring of the first season, albeit in a more contained fashion. Till has to figure out how maimed Lights (Miranda Edwards) and for what reason, while Layton wrestles with the bigger fish of diplomacy with Big Alice and Mr. Wilford. Both plots, particularly the slapdash way in which Layton and Roche (Mike O’Malley) force Till into taking the job, are satisfying. Layton is used to working in secret, to scheme against schemers as Wilford might say, so their back-and-forth at the meeting is very well done. Sean Bean gets to preen and make big statements for the public, and Daveed Diggs gets to wryly get jabs in and deflate the impact of the more egotistical Wilton with verbal barbs.

It’s a great use of both actors, particularly Sean Bean’s charm and Daveed Diggs’ comic timing. Both men get to show a little bit more life than Jennifer Connelly’s Melanie Cavill ever did, though the character seems a bit more free to be herself now that she’s no longer pretending to be Wilford in an attempt to keep the train running. That sort of stress would be enough to tamp down anyone’s nature, unless they’re a pot-smoking sociopath like Wilford or an idealist like Layton.

One of the clever things about Audrey Nealon’s solid script is that it’s clear Wilford is by no means a fool. He might have his moments, but he’s a vicious man with a capacity for revenge and a flair for the dramatic. Certainly, he might be have underestimated Layton at first, but he’s gotten a measure for the man, and Wilford clearly has friends on the inside (as shown by the mutilation of Lights’ hand into the Wilford W).

Ruth (Alison Wright) probably doesn’t have the capacity to hurt others herself; she’s a true believer in hospitality’s mission, but she was never the hand holding the freeze gun. This mutilation seems to be more the speed of LJ (Annalise Basso) and her new partner in crime, the disgraced former brakeman Oz (Sam Otto). Though they’re a bit too obvious to be used as Wilford cats paws, they’re a pretty useful distraction.

Wilford himself is a pretty useful distraction. Christoph Schrewe’s direction makes it pretty clear that Wilford is a potent demagogue figure; if the adoring crowds he waves to on his walk through Snowpiercer aren’t evidence enough, then true believer Kevin killing himself at Wilford’s request should push that point home pretty neatly. Till’s walk through the train is enough to set that scene; Snowpiercer had a change at the top, but everything else is still up in the air and danger is still around every corner. Snowpiercer was dangerous before the tail turned into Cold War Berlin; it’s no less dangerous now that there are no rules and nothing keeping First and Third away from each other.

Will the good news help? Or will it simply make those who have power, like Wilford, fight harder to keep it? Like Melanie’s snowflakes, it’s all up in the air. The first episode did a good job of capping off the stories of the first season, and “Smolder to Life” is the beginning of the second season in earnest. Like the ash piles of Melanie’s youth, it only takes a spark, and Wilford is playing with matches like an unsupervised toddler. Whether it’s Melanie or Layton at the head, Snowpiercer remains a powder keg waiting to blow, and it’s up to Layton to outmaneuver both Wilford and conspirators on his own train and save humanity.

No pressure!

regarding marlskarx  — Mathilda

In lieu of having a fully comprehensive plan for where marlskarx is going from here i'll just say: it won't be continuing for much longer, not in the way its been run.

I'm very thankful to the comrades who have helped me come to the conclusion not to shut things down but to utterly reassess everything. fundamentally, the (anti)press is not new, there have always been small presses that oppose liberal hegemony in publishing. But the (anti)press has done nothing but reproduce these structures it has claimed to oppose. The anti-press was helpful in beginning to organize poets around a leftist framework, until it was noticed that there was no coherent ideological structure supporting the whole. 

marlskarx made a crucial error in its aim as a “publisher of the queer left,” as if this is a grounded position of some sort. left and queer being too broad of terms around which to organize. 

I’m very thankful for the poets who decided to publish with me because it meant that we had, at some level, ideological overlap, but these labels are too disparate to constitute actual principles of revolutionary literature.

Piotr K. Gwiazda: “poets are acutely aware of the limits of their own ability to oppose the actions of their government or to challenge the economic structures that they themselves, as poets, to some degree help perpetuate. No matter how skillfully and eloquently they express their protest against the status quo, they can do very little, as poets, to change the status quo” (19).

And Lu Xun: “I suppose writers in this revolutionary place like to claim that literature plays a big part in revolution and can be used, for instance, to propagandize, encourage..., and accomplish revolution.” “For revolution we need revolutionaries, revolutionary literature can wait, for only when revolutionaries start writing can there be revolutionary literature” 

So the question, I think, largely becomes: what the fuck is the point of shit like marlskarx. What role can it play in actual revolution. Publishing poets who may otherwise not be published, while admirable, is not inherently revolutionary, for the structures we sought to destroy are only re-encoded in liberal fashion. 

It’s unpopular to say things like this because you want your poetry to matter in a revolutionary sense, and i think it can, but there is organizing that needs to take priority at the moment. In Lu Xun’s formulation there is first a literature of complaint, then silence and action.

As Juliana Spahr put it “when literature is instrumentalized by the government as the good form of protest and then used to suppress more militant dissent, it is not autonomous,” that literature always has market pressures, whether from the market or patrons (or patreon) (16-17).

Gwiazda and Bonney both invoke Baraka as using poetry to attempt to promote revolution by verbal means, and Gwiazda goes further and says that the belief that poetic expression will help bring about large scale social & political change through “bearing witness to the suffering” that “poetry can be political inspiration" while “an enabling mythmaking... it is not political activism” (86).

And again, this is not to say poetry doesn't have a place in the revolution; I do think poetry has the capacity to help raise revolutionary consciousness, but that this can only be achieved through militant poetics.

Poems as a means through which to understand the moment, the way capital occupies that moment; documents showing us where and when to strike (Nealon 25; Bonney 65). Anyway, this has moved outside its original goal.

I have a paper on Bonney I've been writing that more articulately (maybe) covers these points in greater detail, which I’d be happy to send you, but this is just to say: marlskarx was an attempt to move in this direction and it, in its current state, failed.

Further analysis and organization will help render the definite future for marlskarx. I’ll continue going with the next few scheduled publications unless you’d like to withdraw, and its reconstitution will be more principled and grounded in a stronger organization.

Actor Kevin Nealon Lists His Pacific Palisades Home … Again

Christopher Polk/Getty Images

Actor Kevin Nealon is still looking to step away from his stately home in Pacific Palisades. He recently put it back on the market for just one dollar shy of $5 million.

Nealon and his wife, actress Susan Yeagley, have changed the price and taken the luxurious, Georgian Colonial-style home on and off the market almost 10 times since initially putting it up for sale in 2016. Listing prices have ranged from $5.45 million to $4.7 million.

The showbiz couple bought the well-situated property in 2010 for $3.45 million.

It’s located in the El Medio Bluffs neighborhood of Pacific Palisades, within walking distance of a scenic section of Sunset Boulevard and the shops and restaurants of the new Palisades Village. The Village recently held an opening gala with Nealon serving as Master of Ceremonies.

And as lovely as it is to live there, it looks as if Nealon and Yeagley are more eager than ever to sell their seven bedroom, 5.5 bath, three-story home.

Built in 2010, the home has elegant finishes, including marble and solid white oak flooring, double and triple crown molding, coffered ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling multipaned windows with transoms, to let in lots of light.

One of the highlights on the main floor is the white kitchen with custom cabinetry, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, private butler’s pantry, a 12-foot center island, and an 8-foot peninsula. The kitchen opens to a large family room with a fireplace.

The spacious master bedroom has a fireplace (the home has three fireplaces) and opens up to a large deck with a built-in daybed and kitchenette.

There is what some people would consider a basement level, although it has direct outdoor access and plenty of windows. Down here, you’ll find three bedrooms (one of which is being used as a gym), as well as a spacious game room/family room, with its own dining area and kitchenette.

Nealon, 64, spent nine seasons on “Saturday Night Live” and has appeared in numerous movies. He’s also had an active small-screen career, starring on “Weeds” and “Man With a Plan.”

This week’s food waste solution may just be the coolest we’ve heard yet—tires. The wheels on the bus (and your car) are typically constructed with a natural and synthetic rubber blend that includes materials like carbon black. Carbon black is necessary to redirect heat from the tire, reinforcing and stabilizing it, but the chemical can cause health issues for those working with it, and the gathering and transport of petroleum products (like its derivative carbon black) can negatively impact the environment. Ohio State University researchers have found a replacement material that not only solves these concerns, but also addresses the food waste problem. Enter porous eggshells and heat-tolerant tomato skins. Reddish-brown is the new (carbon) black.

“Not My Mother’s Yoga” | The New York Times In this heartfelt meditation, contributor Sasha Brown-Worsham remembers her deceased mother, a Sanskrit-chanting, linen wearing yogi who delighted and embarrassed the teenaged Brown-Worsham in equal measure. Before her beloved mother was diagnosed with cancer, she remembers weekly ashram trips, breathing exercises, and sandalwood-scented hugs. For the seven years after her mother’s death, Brown-Worsham, a runner, “couldn’t touch yoga,” but at the age of 24, she discovered Baron Baptiste’s studio. The athletic flow in 98-degree heat was nothing like the yoga once practiced by her mother, and yet the transformative daily classes allowed her to find connection to her dear mom all the same.

“Hong Kong’s Skyline Farmers” | The New Yorker Thirty-nine storeys up, at the top of the Bank of America Tower in Hong Kong’s business district, is an incredible view: rows of growing bok choy, butter lettuce, and mustard leaf. (The skyline isn’t too bad either.) The rooftop farm was created by Rooftop Republic, a company determined to combat the issues associated with Hong Kong’s massive food import industry. The city imports 90% of its food, leading to a number of food safety and contamination concerns, on top of negative environmental impacts. Rooftop Republic’s crops, along with urban farming classes and programs, offer city-dwelling eaters the chance to in some way contribute to the growing of their own clean, safe, and fresh food.

“The Secret to Happiness? Simplify” | Outside Just in time for spring cleaning, Outside’s editors muse on the life-changing magic of: tidying up camping equipment, digital detoxing, soup for lunch, and donning a signature uniform à la Steve Jobs. Each editor provides an inspired solution for simplifying, from streamlining one’s closet to one’s gym routine, and the happiness that will surely follow. Christopher Keyes’ experiences as a disciple of KonMari are hilarious, while we need no evidence to agree with Nicole Centeno’s claim that soup is a “foolproof one-pot wonder.” (There’s a recipe for Kale and Lentil Soup if you need convincing. Or you could swing by the Hot Bar and allow us to plead our case.)

“How Lemonade Helped Paris Fend Off Plague And Other Surprising ‘Food Fights’” | NPR The Salt Lemonade isn’t just the citrus drink that Béyonce serves up like no other. It was also, quite possibly, an accidental pest-repellent in 17th century Paris, suggests food writer Tom Nealon in his new book Food Fights and Culture Wars. NPR highlights the new release, which traces the often patchy history of food and societal conflict. Lemonade, he find, may have even prevented conflict. While other French cities were ravaged by the Bubonic Plague in the late 1600s, Paris was spared. Nealon wonders if the natural pest-killing properties of lemon peels ubiquitous to Paris at the time may have played a role in preventing the disease outbreak. Another point for lemonade?

Plus, here’s what we’re up to this weekend IRL: The third annual Winter Stations has returned to Toronto’s waterfront between Woodbine and Victoria Park, with six lifeguard stands being transformed into public art installations open to the public.
