Lidl used to sell this! Pretty chewy and heavy on the smoke flavour, but surprisingly more-ish

"A core assumption of our framework is that the accelerating pace of Instagram posts will ultimately force him to text you back"

From Brian Sozzi:

JP Morgan on oil prices/Strait of Hormuz:

"A core assumption of our framework is that the accelerating pace of oil inventory depletion will ultimately force the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, one way or another. Our base case envisions the Strait reopens in June— anchored on June 1 for simplicity—following a clear and credible announcement ratified and confirmed by both sides, such as a statement from the UN Security Council."

"Personalised" AI-generated stories are inevitably going to be slop, but it's a bit odd to think that enjoying art is pointless if you can't share that experience with someone else (even an online stranger)

Imagine watching a movie and there's no discussion online. Imagine watching a TV show and none of your friends have seen it and want to talk about it. Imagine playing a video game and there's no one who has figured out that puzzle you're stuck on.

Imagine no fanart. Imagine no fanfiction.
None!

Behold: Bourdain & Obama's table, preserved forevermore like Ho Chi Minh himself. Top notch spring rolls, though

Feeling a strange pang of sadness for whoever's multi-year Wing Fest baseball caps ended up in this charity shop

Three different baseball caps for "Wing Fest London" from 2014 to 2019 (plus a 2017 model hiding under one of them)

The original Nick Adams version was Kinkade-level dreck (remember that Andy Thomas painting where he's hanging out with Eisenhower and Nixon?), but I'm fascinated by the Fujimoto-esque angel he's photoshopped into the middle of the sky

This could cause real devastation further down the supply chain

Guys, you're all missing the obvious solution. Instead of moving the oil across the Strait, just move everyone closer (in some space-efficient form) and save on all the delivery faff
