usually my days in the office are powered by a frozen TJ's delicacy, but it's a real treat to take yourself out for a sit down meal in the middle of the day. bonus points if you go to an establishment that you would normally reserve for a special occasion--lunchtime crowds on a weekday aren't as formidable. today i had soup and a sandwich, read Letters to Milena, and worked on my knitting for an hour at the counter of an upscale diner.

the perfect low-commitment hang, 1 hour in and out, and brightens up the rest of your afternoon!

This rec is highly specific to my work situation. I rarely take my lunch hour, opting to eat whatever I meal preped at my desk to save money. But I realized I could use my lunch hour to walk to the gym two minutes away and exercise. This breaks up the workday in a pleasant way, surprisingly boosts my productivity, and reclaims time in the evening I'd rather use on creative projects. If your situation allows for it, I recommend it.

thinking of her, always and forever. particular favorites from her oeuvre are the 'silueta' series (selection depicted below), rupestrian sculptures, and body tracks (1982). taken from this world violently and far, far too soon.

in the vein of mj's Internet Archive rec and caardamom's follow-up on the Wayback Machine, i point you towards Ubuweb, which describes itself as "a pirate shadow library consisting of hundreds of thousands of freely downloadable avant-garde artifacts." i usually find myself perusing the short films or dance sections, but there's so much of the avant-garde to explore!

i think i'm a little late on this one because it came out near the end of last year, but got a few friends together to see this at a local indie theater. none of us had any idea what we were getting into, and i think that really worked, so i'm not going to share too much beyond saying that it was zany, funny, and shot beautifully.
