Happy Thursday. It’s indeed an extremely happy Thursday for me, as Susannah and I got engaged. It’s a bigger topic then should go into this silly newsletter, but all I’ll say for now is that I am sublimely happy and that I didn’t realize that this sort of happiness, that persists through everything, could be so tangible. I’m a lucky person.
Onto the recommendations.
1/ On the 10th anniversary of Girls, Lena Dunham wrote about female friendship, identity and feeling seen.
2/ I’ve been on a real productivity kick lately. Like a making lists all the time, thinking about how to best batch and use my time, watching minimalist videos set to lofi beats, kind of kick. I know it won’t last, but for now I really enjoy it. One of the key inspirations is this random French dude on tiktok. He goes by @thomreads and I like his simple, short content.
3/ I found this article on choking under pressure to provide a lot of useful, practical tips for performing at your best.
That’s all for this week. Feel free to share this newsletter with anyone you think may enjoy. Have a great Thursday.
