Friday Links!
Leading off this week, a terrific story (and photographs): Dallas Is Unwalkable, They Said. So I Tried to Do It in One Day.
A metaphor so many things: Franz Reichelt; The Man That Plunged To His Death From The Eiffel Tower Testing His Homemade Flying Suit.
Amazing: A bonobo tea party: Study shows humans aren't the only species that can pretend.
A reminder that who you vote for has consequences: How a trans woman's removal from a restroom tore the world of competitive pinball apart. Pinball is one of the most welcoming sports for trans players. But after a confrontation at an arcade last fall, pinball’s governing group is struggling to rebuild trust.
Very, very tangled: Are We Tripping? The next billion-dollar blockbuster drug could be a psychedelic. There’s just one problem.
An excellent short video: What the ‘Louvre of the desert’ reveals about the human story.
Let's hope it's a good sign: What Texas Democrats’ Shocking Win Means for the GOP in November.
This is a wonderful read: When the Flames Went Out: Losing home and rebuilding, reluctantly, in the year after Los Angeles’s Eaton Fire.
A terrific, thoughtful piece of journalism: Victims and villains: In Southeast Asia’s scam compounds, workers are being enslaved but the boundary between victim and perpetrator is blurred
From Wally, and it may be a considerably less valuable idea than last week: The 'bullion prerogative' for science fiction authors. I think I've only had DoorDash once (ever): Freedom With a Side of Guilt: How Food Delivery Is Reshaping Mealtime.
