August 2023 ⁂ All that good stuff
I’m Chad Comello and this is Chadabout, a monthly update about what I've been writing, reading, and doing.

Hey all,
Just trying to enjoy the last chunk of summer while it's here (between the 100° days that is). Shorts and t-shirts, easy walks, leaves and grass, all that good stuff.
On to the links...

1. My recent posts:
Towards a better masculinity - Highlights from a viral article.
A to-do menu - Another way of looking at task lists.
The Ben Folds principle of ignorance - It's OK if you don't know everything.
Journalism is just the art of capturing behavior - According to a serial fabulist...
Quarterback - Thoughts on the Netflix show.
Tools of the moment - Bye bye, Spotify...
2. From the interwebs: Good movies as old books. On the genius editing of Ocean’s Eleven. The many designs of U.S. license plates. Steven Soderbergh's sweet shirt shop.
3. Quote: “Mix merry laughter with earnest labor. Always have some as yet unfinished, but not too urgent job waiting just outside your door. Then you will never know ennui. To ‘kill time’ is murder in the first degree.” - W.W. Keen, via Matthew Algeo's The President Is A Sick Man
