When “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat” débuted on Netflix, viewers fell in love with Samin Nosrat: her disarming grin, her unselfconscious enthusiasm, the way she threw herself so exuberantly into the sensory pleasures of both making and eating food. “What I tried to do with my show is convey this idea that good food around the world is more similar than it is different, and that we, as humans, are more similar than we are different,” Nosrat told @helenr. “That all felt real great in the moment, but the world keeps getting darker.” At the link in our bio, the author and chef discusses fame, veganism, depression, and writing a new cookbook.

The young Swiss photographer @senta.simond shoots her subjects in natural light, but it’s the platonic-erotic bonds of close friendship that give them their particular glow. Her subjects are women she knows, in non-studio settings, and she seeks out plain white backgrounds to position them against. This sense of familiarity and trust is what makes her images so transfixing—they are images that once upon a time might’ve been said to smack of the male gaze. Tap the link in our bio for more.

Bullshit, like paper waste, accumulates in offices with the inevitability of February snow. All day, you get e-mails about “consumer intimacy” (oh, boy); “all hands” (whose hands?); and the new expense-reporting software, which requires that all receipts be mounted on paper, scanned, and uploaded to a server that rejects them, since you failed to pre-file the crucial post-travel form. If you’re lucky, bullshit of this genre consumes only a few hours of your normal workweek. If you’re among the millions of less fortunate Americans, it is the basis of your entire career. At the link in our bio, read Nathan Heller on what one anthropologist calls the “useless jobs that no one wants to talk about.”
