Last week, we admitted to accidentally ordering an ungodly amount of soap. Immediately heard from one of you Dear Riders. “Yo, I also over-ordered soap at one point. You can put extra bars (so long as they’re wrapped in a paper towel or cloth bag) in your drawers to make your clothes smell fresher.” Good looking out. And a great reminder as we head into the Weekend. No matter how specific your problems, you’re not alone.   What to Watch Watched Mountainhead (Max, is it HBO again?) last week. It’s a tech executive satire at its finest. Just off-center of modern reality. Steve Carell is always good. Ramy Youssef adds the perfect balance. And Jason Schwartzman is darkly hilarious. The Unholy Trinity. Giddy up. (Theaters) The Life of Chuck. From the minds of Stephen King and Mike Flanagan. (Theaters) Absolution. Liam Neeson doing what he does. (Theaters) Echo Valley. Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney. (AppleTV+) Fubar, season two. (Netflix) Underdogs. Hold on to your binoculars. (Nat Geo) The U.S. Open. (NBC,USA)   Your Data’s Out There. So Are the People Who Want It. [Partner]  Every 22 seconds, someone gets hit with identity theft. Why? Because your personal info—birthdate, home address, phone number—is floating around online. And it doesn’t take much more for scammers to open accounts in your name. Here is the fix: Incogni scrubs your data from background-check sites, sketchy forums, and random ecommerce platforms. Just send them the links—Incogni handles the rest.  Use code ELEVATOR for 55% off an annual plan and start erasing your digital footprint before it costs you.   LEARN MORE   What to Eat & Drink A good burger can solve most problems. Cooked right, subtly stacked with basics, and slathered with a housemade sauce, of course. We had one earlier this week after a long day of work, and it would be an exaggeration to say it was a meditative experience, eating that thing in our hotel room. But not by much. If you’re doing chicken cutlets, do Stanley Tucci’s. Or just cook a whole bird🔺 over an open flame. Have a spicy smash burger. And enjoy the peace of devouring it. Give pork brisket a shot. Pair it up with a twice baked potato. Brunch it up with huevos rancheros. Sip on the Briny Beast cocktail. It’s always a good time to reach for a Kölsch. But especially now.   What to Do We’re heading home after a work trip this week. Our wife found a new rug while we were away. She texted us a photo with the caption, “Fun fact: the burgundy in the rug is basically identical to our striped chairs.” Gonna be a helluva homecoming. Build an outdoor pallet bar. Whip up a batch of mouthwash based mosquito repellent. Make sure your private info isn’t floating around the internet.* Clean up the body hair, the right way. Just relax with a good book. Or consider making a pilgrimage to one of these breweries.   News With Just the Facts. Find Unbiased Reporting at 1440. [Partner]  Be the smartest person in the room by reading 1440!
