Fascinating connection between GLP-induced impulse control and buying art. The top 10% by income of consumers account for 50% of spending. The use of GLPs is undoubtedly higher in that high income group. What other impulses might be muted?
'Unputdownable' is not new - it's a very old English term (apparently originated in the 1830s) that is familiar to Brits. I've been using it for years :)
When I was a book editor at AMZN it was the go-to adjective of a colleague of mine to champion their favorite books. I got a little triggered seeing it here today.
If someone does end up making a Real Simple style Substack, I’d be their first subscriber. Half of my Reddit searching is how to take care of/fix up/clean the secondhand purchases I make…
I feel lucky because I used to go to random tailors for hemming and things like that and then when I moved to Brooklyn I ended up needing a dress altered that was layers of mesh and boning and the first tailor I went to ended up creating magic and we’ve been friends ever since. He’s done some crazy work for me. I leave feeling like all of my pieces are 1 of 1
I guess the news paper business is no longer. The WSJ and NYTs and print media in general are now morphing into media entertainment enterprises. I appreciate the evolve or die reality but the world needs a free press, delivering news and facts. I guess it also needs a populace with the attention span to read and care.
I need Martha stewards housekeeper to start a substack
Would read the hell out of that

I saw some anecdotal reporting that partners at VC funds on GLP1s were taking on less risky investments. I wish there were a deeper dive into that
Yes I think David Ulevitch once commented on this
Can confirm!
I still get real simple in print lol. Really soothes the brain.
Real Simple and Diet Coke on a plane…. Hits
I also love print on a plane.
love a holiday letter, thanks for powering thru

Emily that’s a sign to put that director hat back on sooner than later. Also Hugh King is an epic name.
You are my sign

We’ll use a trigger warning next time sorry Brad 🙏🏼

Emilia Petraca does “repair month” where she covers a lot of how to make minor fixes. Might scratch part of that itch
She's so thorough, I look forward to that series every year
My tailor has become a close confidant because of this and something Liana Satenstein wrote that shifted how I view the clothing I own
Can you be completely honest with me... how many tailors did it take to find this one?

Of course… his name is Hussey he’s in prospect heights! https://maps.app.goo.gl/6t6XFtfbfV6QKe1bA?g_st=ic
Yes I love it!!
I need diagrams and visuals though
Agreed and now I have an idea…
PLEASE interview the older gentlemen in Chinatown! 😍
The WSJ didn't coin "unputdownable" -- Raymond Chandler did, in 1947.

I see, I’m sorry. I was wrong!
Shira Gill writes the Life Edit. It's more steeped in minimalism than Martha, but it does help me collect myself in a similar way.
