Despite its release in 2018, the upbeat falsetto and synths in this song feel a lot like Williamsburg circa 2012, and the only part you really want to listen to is the chorus. But “Waiting on the Warmth” a great anthem on a zero-degree Friday. Play it out loud in your office and everyone will be like, “RIIIIGHT?”

Have you noticed how instagrammable books are lately? Well, I did, and I wrote about it for New York Magazine. The piece, which went up yesterday, is all about how online bookselling has impacted book cover design, leaving us in a weird hybrid spot where the world looks like instagram and instagram looks like the world. There’s a surprise positive twist at the end too– read it! (And also like tweet it out and stuff if you’re so inclined.)

Meanwhile, the Ringer has named a trend that you’ve probably noticed anecdotally: it’s not a party unless there’s an instagram wall. More and more, people are adding photo setups and hashtags to their house parties to create a codified online footprint of their hosting abilities. So what do you do with those mylar curtains afterward? Attempt to recycle? Save them for the next go-round? Carefully assess whether they spark joy? Maybe a party wall photo-a-day selfie project.

In my article I almost got NYMag to link directly to publishers’ websites instead of Amazon. I was foiled, as you’ll see, but want to take this opportunity to direct you to some great books that you can order directly from publishers. Black Leopard, Red Wolf, out next week from Riverhead. Talent and An Orchestra of Minorities from Little, Brown. Hark from Simon & Schuster. And on and on for truly ever. Read books, guys!
