THINGS I CAPTURE THROUGHOUT MY DAY
NOTES_
I loved the documentary Ecstasy of Order, so of course I love this. Also, the Summoning Salt YouTube channel is like whoa.
Also, I had no idea that Jonas Neubauer died. That is tragic.

The way this TRANSFORMATIONAL AND FOUL-SMELLING TECHNOLOGY WORKS is by taking shit particles and BLASTING THEM INTO RAIN CLOUDS, and then SOME STUFF HAPPENS that we ASSUME IS COOL AND SCIENCE BUT ACTUALLY CAN’T EXPLAIN, and then those clouds aggregate a bunch of the airborne shit particles into COHERENT-SEEMING PIECES OF SHIT that are ALL-NEW and NOT JUST THE OLD SHIT REASSEMBLED BUT FASTER.
This is such a fun story about a group of people from around the world who joined forces to try and beat every unbeaten level ever created in Super Mario Maker before the game essentially went offline. I love humans when they do stuff like this.
The Dominican Baseball Factory is possibly the best long form article I’ve ever read. It is both fascinating and, at times, almost unbearably sad.
In their search for the next Dominican star, major league teams pursue what one general manager called a “boatload mentality.” Every year, teams sign about 450 Dominican prospects, most for bonuses around $30,000. Fewer than two-thirds will make it to the lowest minor leagues, and less than 10% will play a day in the majors, according to MLB data.
