   A Flight Attendant Tells Us What to Do If You're Seated Next to Someone Smelly on a PlanePardon the self-flattery, but our tolerance for the general public’s debauchery is extremely high. Doesn’t mean we aren’t critical. Quite the opposite. The voice in our head is basically a Supreme Court Justice, assigning guilt or innocence instantaneously to every stranger we see on the streets, on trains, on planes, wherever. Sweatpants in public? Guilty! Walking too slow and too wide? Guilty! Accidentally making eye contact with a stranger while spitting gum into a wrapper? Innocent! Like true gentlemen, we never* vocalize these thoughts. *Unless we’re on a cross country flight sitting next to a stinkbomb. Smell something, say something.

We’ll get to the former at the end of today’s ELEVATOR ride. For now, allow us to take a moment to tether us all to the Earth. Morning pooping. What’s the deal?  Why We Seek Revenge and What to Do InsteadNot all revenge is bad. Not all forgiveness is righteous. Some revenge is helpful. And fun. Like the world is balancing things out for you. Some forgiveness is ignorant, hoping someone or something will change just because you were sovereign enough to pour love over it. The key, then, is knowing what situation calls for what route. Forgive us for being so wise about revenge.  John Cage’s Symphonic Love Letters to the Love of His LifeAs promised, some literature-ish to free your mind. In the form of love letters penned by one of the most prolific music theorists, John Cage. Here’s an appetizer: “Rain finally came + it’s beautifully cool. Wonder how long it will last. It was marvelous because it started suddenly and then was alternately terrific and gentle… I think of you all the time and therefore have little to say that would not embarrass you, for instance my first feeling about the rain was that it was like you.” Time for the full entrée.  The MixerThe rarest trees in the world. Why bells used to be attached to 19th century coffins. The surprising effect of out-of-body experiences. Fantastical Japanese retrofuturism. What taking a walk every morning does for your health. The race to be the tallest building in the world. What country takes the fewest vacation days. The world's richest billionaires in 2024, ranked.
