Embedded is your essential guide to what’s good on the internet, written by Kate Lindsay and edited by Nick Catucci. Before we start: I interviewed the cringe king of TikTok, Jake Novak, for GQ! —Kate  In 2019, Twitter users bemoaned a recent poll that revealed that today’s children are more likely to want to become a YouTuber, a job which can be done in one’s living room, than an astronaut, which is done without oxygen.

I was so excited when my friend Maya told me that this year’s Taiga Drama (*)is about Murasaki Shikibu’s life. Since I am doing a re-read of the Tale of Genji, I really wanted to watch the drama— though honestly I was a bit worried about how much I would understand. The story takes place in the Heian period and while there isn’t much 10th-11th century Japanese being used, I was still concerned that my decade-plus absence from Japan would have a negative impact on my ability to follow the story.

The Sun delivers abundant light across all visible wavelengths, providing ample illumination and healthy rays at zero energy cost, even on an overcast day. In comparison, electric light can only be a pale imitation of sunlight. Because of indoor glare and reflections, electric lighting must always be hundreds of times less bright and deliver considerabl… ncG1vNJzZmikmZy1tbDOnKuoqp2Wv7W1zaamqKqVmrGmetKumayskZi4b6%2FOpmapZ6Sdsm64yKCfrWWUpLC1u9Fmb2abopqutbXNoGShnZGhwanF

In Jonathan Swift’s “Gulliver’s Travels,” one of his greatest satirical flourishes was his description of the constant civil wars among the tiny race of Lilliputians. Lilliput had an official religion whose text called for all “true believers” to eat their boiled eggs by first breaking the egg at the “convenient” end.” Whether the convenient end was the big end or the small end of the egg was left for posterity to decide.

Oct. 1 marks the bye week for Lincoln University. The Oaklanders have earned the time off. Through its first four games, Oakland-based Lincoln lost games of 52-7 at Texas A&M Commerce; 42-10 at Western Oregon; 66-7 against Div. II national title hopeful Grand Valley; and 43-6 at St. Thomas (Minn.). All four games were played on the road, as you can see. In fact, Lincoln’s entire schedule sends it on the road, from its closest trips into Oregon and Utah, to Texas, in the Rust Belt, and as far east as West Virginia and New York.

Between the years 550 and 700, something interesting happened. With the fall of Rome, we stopped speaking and using Latin. What’s more, languages shifted and mutated in various parts of the world and by 700 the common person couldn’t speak it, nor did they have anyone in their lives that had any memory of it spoken. It was mostly dead. Yet - one of the secret societies kept this language flourishing.

The full-blooded, bellicose, violent but chivalric rebel is a much-romanticized figure in Punjab folklore. The popularity of the song ‘Arjan Vailly,’ sung by Bhupinder Babbal, has brought this archetype back into popular discourse. Articles quickly (and erroneously) identified ‘Arjan’ as the son of Hari Singh Nalwa. A few days later, a journalist posted a more reliable account online. Arjan Singh was born into a wealthy Virk household in Rurka village of Ludhiana.

Some 60-plus years ago, in a brief, spectacular run, the rock & roll songwriters and music publishers of the Brill Building and 1650 Broadway dominated America’s music industry. The two buildings, and others nearby, constituted a song factory, a rabbit-warren of young, ambitious writers hammering out what they fervently hoped would be a Top 40 hit. Here, nnol the raffish flair of a fading Tin Pan Alley met the urgency of what had not yet been dubbed “youth culture.
