(Since there are virtually no bakeries left in amerikkka, just about all of the bread you can buy is either injected full of chemical preservatives or stale.) I noticed the plastic pepper mill on the table was proudly festooned with a logo that proclaimed “NON GMO.” Much of South East Asia was… ## [Por que ND tem sono que parece de outra espécie](https://nomeadornd.substack.com/p/por-que-nd-tem-sono-que-parece-de-outra-especie) _2026-08-19 · João Carlos Leitão · O Nomeador ND_ Dormir tarde mesmo exausto, acordar às 3h com uma ideia ótima, apagar às 15h numa reunião.

If you can call this living. My 1966 Simca 1500. Purrs like a kitten. A dead one. Much of the… ## [A Lot of People Will Hate This One.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/a-lot-of-people-will-hate-this-one.html) _2026-08-18 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ I often think of myself as a can of soup. Or a French mustard. Or an Italian olive oil or balsamic vinegar. You can go to any grocery store and find about 259 others that look just like me. 259 others that have roughly the same ingredients, provenance and heritage. 259 others that do roughly everything I do roughly as well as I do it. That’s the world most of us face every day.

(And Us.)](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/the-irrelevancing-of-ad-industry-and-us.html) _2026-08-17 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Last week, you couldn’t spit without hitting about 97,000 posts on LinkedIn and the bought-and-paid-for trade press about last week’s most important advertising topic. Or the most important topic according to all those easily shiny-objected out of noticing what’s really happening in the world.

It looked a little strange, slightly washed out, but without thinking too much about it, I went to a local restaurant and bought a roast chicken with it. And two sides. If you threw out everything that comes your way that looks off, the entire ad industry, every relationship you’ve ever had, and the world economy… ## [Browse ThreatCrush Modules (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/RYqfOUR8x3bs) _2026-08-14 · **Sponsored**_ Install community-built security modules to extend real-time threat intelligence and monitoring ## [There’s a Test for That.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/theres-test-for-that.html) _2026-08-13 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Over the last couple of weeks, WPP’s stock has risen considerably. Its share price, which was down in the low-teens six months ago, is now in the mid-to-high twenties. Its market-cap, which had plummeted to about $3 billion from a high of about $16 billion has climbed to almost $6 billion. Much of that rebounding comes after WPP’s latest earnings report which financial people regard as… ## [Existe profissão certa pra TDAH?

Sparkle has been walked. She’s had an hour in the dog park with various canine friends. Especially Graham. I’ve done two walks me-self. One of two miles in the dog park. Another of two miles along the beach. It’s about 200 degrees out and I’m schvitzed. I have two posts written for next week, and can’t relax until I get a third. That’s the rule.

Even fewer can actually explain it so it’s memorable and sexy. I also realized that journalism had started doing a better job explaining processes and… ## [Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria](https://drsarahsecorjones.substack.com/p/rejection-sensitive-dysphoria) _2026-08-10 · Dr. Sarah · Neurodivergent Women, Rewritten Hormones, Health, Longevity_ when critique feels like a threat, and what to do next ## [Damn You.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/damn-you.html) _2026-08-10 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ As we head into the midterm elections, I can’t help but thinking there is too much lee-way in the world. Without getting into politics, there are somethings that are just wrong. Wrong enough so you should be excluded from “people-facing” roles for ever. A senatorial candidate with a Nazi tattoo. OUT. A designer who said he loved Hitler and told Jewish women that they should have been gassed.

You don’t have the pressure on you that the third batter has, in this case Danilo Garibay, who was in spitting distance of a .300 season, and already, with more than twenty games left, had knocked in over one-hundred runs. You also don’t have the weight of batting clean-up like Salome Rojas had. Salome, Hector said, often shaking his head at… ## [Wow Writing.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/wow-writing.html) _2026-08-06 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ I read this last week in The Economist: If you care about passé things like art, literature, craft, beauty and wit, this would be a hard article to ignore. Also if you’re from New York and you love it as so many New Yorkers do. Even if they’ve re-locaterized two-hours north to the Gingham Coast, where an outfit of Lilly Pulitzer is considered resolutely OG. Then if you make it to the first… ## [Low and Slow:](https://drsarahsecorjones.substack.com/p/low-and-slow) _2026-08-05 · Dr. Sarah · Neurodivergent Women, Rewritten Hormones, Health, Longevity_ The Only Sauna Protocol Your Nervous System Will Thank You For ## [What Would HBR Say?](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/what-would-hbr-say.html) _2026-08-05 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ When I worked on Mercedes-Benz in the middle-90s, the brand, at least to my eyes had been shaken to the core by the advent of Japanese “super-luxury” competitors. Seemingly overnight, Mercedes no longer had the high-end of the car market to pretty much to themselves. All of a sudden they were being eaten alive by Infiniti, Acura and mostly mostly mostly Lexus. Because of vagaries of currency… ## [nd.Genossenschaft | Logistisch notwendig, inhaltlich folgerichtig](https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1201721.nd-genossenschaft-logistisch-notwendig-inhaltlich-folgerichtig.html) _2026-08-04 · Lola Zeller · nd: nd-Commune_ Damit alle am Wochenende Zeitung lesen können, erscheint »nd.Die Woche« schon am Freitag. ## [Disinformation X 2.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/disinformation.html) _2026-08-04 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Disinformation has a Soviet ring to it. With a sprinkling of Kafka. Wrapped in corporate PR. And shrouded in military-industrial complex. Such is the prevalence of disinformation today—in every walk of life—and the success of disinformation today, that we seldom even hear the word anymore. People are too busy being “transparent” and “authentic.” That said, Google Ngram disagrees with me. (Ngram is… ## [Diff. Er. Ent.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/08/diff-er-ent.html) _2026-08-03 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Does work like this matter anymore? Almost forty years ago, I developed a test. A test of people. (As my daughters might say, I’m a judgey sonofa.) Around that time, even though I was young, often clients and others would ask me if I would talk to their niece or nephew, or a friend of a cousin’s tennis coach, because they wanted to get a job in advertising. When I started in 1993 or so teaching a… ## [What the Sauna Actually Does to Your Nervous System](https://drsarahsecorjones.substack.com/p/what-the-sauna-actually-does-to-your) _2026-08-02 · Dr. Sarah · Neurodivergent Women, Rewritten Hormones, Health, Longevity_ Beth walked into my office, and told me she started the sauna because someone told her it would calm her nervous system down. ## [Live with Dr. Sarah Q&A for Paid Members](https://drsarahsecorjones.substack.com/p/live-with-dr-sarah-q-and-a-for-paid) _2026-08-01 · Dr. Sarah · Neurodivergent Women, Rewritten Hormones, Health, Longevity_ A recording from Dr. Sarah's live video ## [AI News Summaries & Audio (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/aZ8q4QhxVvR9) _2026-08-01 · **Sponsored**_ Tap an article for an AI summary and an audio briefing. ## [Guia completo pra negociar acomodações no trabalho brasileiro](https://nomeadornd.substack.com/p/guia-completo-pra-negociar-acomodacoes-no-trabalho-brasileiro) _2026-08-01 · João Carlos Leitão · O Nomeador ND_ Passo a passo pra pedir o que você precisa no trabalho sem precisar contar tudo sobre você.

While most manufacturers compete over increasingly familiar variations of fast primes, standard zooms, and conventional macro lenses, Laowa tends to wander into the strange, neglected corners of optical design. This is the company that gave us the unusually long 24mm Probe \[…\] ## [Boney Tenant.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/07/boney-tenant.html) _2026-07-31 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Every once in a while, you read something or stumble across a story that is so profound that you feel obliged to check if it were written by Sophocles or Plutarch. This story here from Wednesday’s “Wall Street Journal” is an example of what I mean. You can read it here. I was never much of a Tony Bennett fan until 2001 when my father died. Around that time there was New York’s last jazz station… ## [Worms Matter.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/07/worms-matter.html) _2026-07-30 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ Words matter, about 2,000 pundits a day pompousicate on LinkedIn. Words matter, says every client in every meeting. Words matter, say hack-assed creative directors, without every bothering to read the words. Words matter, as another billboard goes up that hasn’t a soupçon of stopping power, charm or wit. Or even coherence. Words matter.

You shouldn’t cite someone’s words but ignore their intent. I recoil when I see Ogilvy, the entity, co-opting the words of their founder when there’s… ## [Nathan Smith Minot ND: Technology-Driven Farming for a More Productive Future](https://nathansmithminotnd.substack.com/p/nathan-smith-minot-nd-technology) _2026-07-29 · Nathan Smith Minot ND · Nathan Smith Minot ND_ Agriculture has always adapted to meet society’s needs, but today’s transformation is happening faster than ever. ## [P+S Technik Introduces Hexamo Mount for Leitz Hektor Lenses on Arri Alexa](https://thecinelens.com/2026/07/28/ps-technik-introduces-hexamo-mount-for-leitz-hektor-lenses-on-arri-alexa/) _2026-07-28 · Matthew Duclos · The Cine Lens_ P+S Technik has introduced the Hexamo Mount, a mounting system that makes Leitz Hektor prime lenses compatible with Arri Alexa cameras.

Still I woke up around four in the morning every morning to try to get lost as well as I could. The hotel we were staying in had been a bank. It was on a plaza across from Humboldt University and not far from the location of the nazi’s notorious book burnings, the first of which flamed in May, 1933, just a… ## [Worms.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/07/worms.html) _2026-07-27 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ One of my first big bosses, a recent inductee to the Art Directors Club Hall of Fame, was John C. Jay, who steered the creative department at Bloomingdale’s in-house agency in the early 1980s. Later, John helped make Wieden & Kennedy great and Nike as hot as they ever were. John had an amazing array of talents. But perhaps more than anything, he could spot a trend long before anyone else.

Assuming you can still read, you can find it here. Chouinard’s essay starts like this: Over 50 years ago, my wife, Malinda, and I bought a chef’s knife of carbon steel that we still use. It could be passed down to several generations. Compare that to the junk stainless steel ones that might… ## [Sketchy.](https://adaged.blogspot.com/2026/07/sketchy.html) _2026-07-23 · george tannenbaum · Ad Aged_ One of the great joys of my life in a life that, despite my lugubrious mien has many, is abebooks.com . Though abe sold itself to amazon back in 2008, and I despise amazon and its non-tax-paying owner, trillionaire jeff bezos, I still shop there. That’s the beauty of today’s monopolies. Standard Oil could sell their petroleum only once.
