Holy crap I don't know about you peeps but I am tuckered out this week. When I'm tired like I am now and a little bit in the dumps, it's easy to feel like I'm getting behind.  That's some grade A, grassfed, bullshit.

I once said to my friend Kevin something like, "There's never enough time", to which he replied, "There's always the exact amount of time that there is". 😮

I think that sticks with me because it goes contrary to how I feel most of the time. But there's just the dang amount of time that there is. Period. This hooplah that we're running out of it is like a damn thief and will take everything from you if you let it. Back off time bandit!

Case in point: peep what some MIT students did with a Saturday at midnight. Time well spent. They turned a whole-ass building into a giant playable Tetris game. Nobody asked them. Nobody paid them. They just MADE the time for some joyfully stupid game-playing nonsense. This is how you kick the time bandit in his time-nuts.

I'm glad I could squeeze out a newsletter to you all this week. I've had some really nice responses to some of the emails recently and it's been really sweet. Seriously.

A little note to say that this newsletter is how Wimp grows. We're not advertising because I've never met an ad that made me feel good. So we're doing this instead. If that hits home for you, then share this ish!

Also, if any of you have questions for me or Liam, or questions you'd like answered from our 3000 people in the newsletter, then by all means, ask away! We'll start putting those questions in the email.

Lastly Bekele is on sale, 15% off until we are out. Go get a bag!

A Teach / Music class but make it magic.
Dude. Why couldn't my classrooms be like this?! I'm talking to you Mr. Bittinger! I might have stuck with music if it had been cool like this. @music4all_matteo_scapin lets kids sprinkle tokens onto a music-reading turntable robot thing and boom, you have a tiny symphony. Watch with sound or you just won't get it at all.

A Bouquet / Flowers, but links?
Sharing links is boring AF. Never again, your favorite URLs, get a pretty shareable page that is an instant gift instead of a bookmark dump. This is the weird internet I crave.

A Doorbell / The Dutch built a doorbell for fish.
This is the most perfectly boring shit I've seen in a long time. Live cam on a canal lock in Utrecht? Of course that's what we should do. When you spot a fish trying to swim upstream, press the bell, and then a real-ass human locke keeper opens it up to let it through.

A Mailbox / Postcards from strangers, on purpose.
Postcrossing (not to be confused with cross dressing) pairs you with a random person somewhere in the world, you mail them a postcard, eventually, somebody else mails one to you. That's the whole thing. Working since 2004. No app, no ads, no algo. The slowest social network on the planet, and probably the best.

A Tiny / An art gallery the size of a brick.
@owenjohn found a missing brick on Brick Lane in Shoreditch and slotted a tiny working gallery into the gap. Real paintings, real lights, all scaled down. He runs @tinyartshow — micro installations dropped into the cracks of the city. This is what the internet was supposed to be. I hope he doesn't have to pay rent for this shit.

Light Roast

A light, smooth Ethiopian roast that tastes like blueberries and milk chocolate had a baby. Chemical-free decaf process, organic farm, and named after the farmer who rebuilt the whole thing from wildfire ash.

*We don't name coffees after people lightly. This one earned it.
