this quote from Carl Jung hits so hard.
“The world is full of people suffering from the effects of their own unlived life. They become bitter, critical, or rigid, not because the world is cruel to them, but because they have betrayed their own inner possibilities. The artist who never makes art becomes cynical about those who do. The lover who never risks loving mocks romance. The thinker who never commits to a philosophy sneers at belief itself. And yet, all of them suffer, because deep down they know: the life they mock is the life they were meant to live.”

New Tesla Megapack factory in Houston
🇺🇸 TESLA HIRING FOR $200M MEGAFACTORY OUTSIDE HOUSTON
Tesla is bringing clean energy muscle to Brookshire, Texas, and they’re hiring like crazy.
41 jobs are open now, from welders to engineers, all stamped with one word: “Megafactory.”
The site will mirror Tesla’s California Megafactory that cranks out 10,000 utility-scale Megapacks per year.
They’re leasing 2 massive buildings, investing over $200M in automation, robotics, and advanced manufacturing tech.
By 2028, they’ll employ at least 1,500 people in the region and must stay at that level for a decade.
Brookshire’s getting transformed from logistics corridor to clean energy hotspot.

I’m thrilled to be rejoining @RedNinetyFour on Substack. Like my work for Red94.net, I will be focusing on the business side of the @HoustonRockets. My first piece contains my thoughts on @ToyotaCenter and the #Fertitta family’s RE strategy:

Love this story where Badalamenti & Lynch discover that
the MIDI notation of Laura Palmer's Theme actually resembles twin peaks.
"I showed David the photo and told him what it was, and he just started shouting, ‘It’s cosmic! It’s cosmic! It’s cosmic!’"

Amazon was supposed to kill the strip mall. Instead, it's never been stronger.

1/Here's something a lot of people I talk to don't understand about Japanese urbanism, and why Japanese cities are so special.

I am a Democrat.
I support most progressive policies.
I will be voting for President Trump.
Please watch and share my speech below to understand why.

Houston has bad weather, no natural beauty, and little history. But that’s a feature, not a bug. It means government has to be responsive to the people to create a place people and businesses want to locate. It must be efficient with taxpayer money and consider tradeoffs. It must create an ecosystem that leads to a high quality of life for its residents. Lose this focus and the city fails. There is no presumption that residents must acquiesce to the city; the city must work for the residents. Turns out there’s great demand for this concept: the city has gone from the from the 45th largest in the US to the 4th largest in 100 years. It's a simple concept but one I find wanting in many legacy cities with more natural advantages.

Listened last night. Like, REALLY listened all the way through undistracted, not just had it on in the background. First time in a while. Goddamn what a staggering piece of work.

very happy to see this, not only because it's v good and the album is a stone classic, but because we live in strange times when hyper-obscure 90s bands are going million-streams viral and nobody under 40 seems to talk about one of the decade's most acclaimed psych/noise-pop acts

Alongside Pitchfork we used to have Skyscraper, Punk Planet, Tiny Mix Tapes, Blastitude, Chunklet, Arthur, Magnet, Dusted, the Aquarius Records newsletter, Fake Jazz, Heartattack, and dozens of blogs. Loved some, hated some, but it was all a living and thriving ecosystem.

Back in the 90s, I would spend hours with 2 VHS 📼 recorders setup and edit highlight packages of games... I never thought I would be sharing them on my phone with the world 25 years later. Enjoy this package I made of Game 7 of the NBA Finals - Rockets v Knicks
