Godmorgen, jeg håber du har haft en god forlænget weekend. Det har jeg! Nu er der morgenpost:

Til din indre voyeur: 'Paris Views' giver et kig ind gennem parisiske ruder. Det er svært tilfredsstillende (og så er kulisserne med Paris som backdrop også gudesmukke).
"Go to the goddamn grocery and get steak. Yes, the grocery. A little ammonia is not going to kill you, you pussy. You want to be all fancy and grass-fed and environmentally conscious, go ahead, I don’t give a shit, just get a fucking steak. Ribeye is good. And, yes, bone-in. Schmuck. Take the steak home. Get a bigass frying pan and put the shit on the stove, cranking the heat up as far as that fucker will go. Take a shitload of salt—rocksalt, you dumb motherfucker, none of that fine-grained crap here—and toss it around the bottom of the pan. When the pan is hot as all fuck—it should scorch the shit out of your finger if you’re stupid enough to touch it—put the fucking steak on there. You can crack some pepper on the top of the steak as the bottom is searing, but don’t even talk to me about garlic or onion powder or COMPOUND FUCKING BUTTER, asshole. This is steak, all you fucking need is salt and pepper. After a bit (3 minutes for pink, 5 for cooked good), flip that shit over and do the same fucking thing you just did with the other side, i.e. sit on your ass and wait for your motherfucking steak to be ready, you useless assbag. When you’re done, sling that shit on a plate. Beringer’s 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Private Reserve makes an absolutely delightful accompaniment, particularly if you’ve taken care to let it breathe a bit before quaffing. Also, make some fucking potatoes, because that’s what you eat with a fucking steak. God, sometimes I just want to smack the shit out of you."
Måske en af de bedste videoer, jeg længe har set: How to make a perfect cheeseburger. Den er fra Vice-kanalen Munchies, som jeg tidligere har skrevet om - du skylder også dig selv at tjekke Being Frank fra samme kanal, som jeg glæder mig til at se mere til.
Lidt mere VM: Bloomberg Businessweek klar med nyt magasin (og sej GIF til netversionen), hvor de sætter fokus på krigen mellem Adidas og Nike op til turneringen i Brasilien. Læsværdigt.
Hvis du også er træt af, at staten, NSA, Claus Hjort Frederiksen og din mor kigger dig over skulderen, når du sender e-mail, så tjek ProtonMail. Det hører hjemme i Schweiz og dermed lovgivningen i landet, det er nemt at bruge og det er gratis.
Helt igennem brilliant: Mænd der kaster sten med den forkerte hånd. Det ser helt skævt ud.

Da Johannes Kepler, en af verdenshistoriens største astronomer, skulle giftes tilbage i 1611, gjorde han det eneste rigtige: Interviewede 11 kvinder for at finde ud af, hvem af dem, der passede bedst til opgaven.

"Being alone for a long time takes a lot of getting used to. Not needing to even speak for hours – days! – felt extremely strange. And when there’s no-one else around to see what you’re doing, even something like sitting on a chair or switching on a kettle or deciding to go outdoors for a bit all took on an existential kind of enormity."
Jeg er glad for andres selskab, men jeg holder virkerlig også af at være alene. Det bør du også.
Jeg kan love dig for, at jeg har meget på hjerte. Men det kommer jeg ikke til at blande ind i min karriere. Det er ikke professionelt interessant for mig at udtale mig om ting. At jeg selv mener en masse i det private … fair snak. Men den snak kan jeg tage med nogle venner.
