I stumbled on this video for Apple done by Stevie Wonder & Andra Day. And yeah, it's meant to tug at your heart strings... but when I searched for the lyrics, it powerfully resonates today more than ever with the situation our world is in. So while we're all busy doing our thing this December, don't forget to pause and remember the reason for the season. Peace be with you.
SOMEDAY AT CHRISTMAS
Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free
Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas we'll see a land
With no hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
Our world where people care
Someday at Christmas there'll be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
One shining moment, one prayer away
From our world today
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas man will not fail
Hate will be gone and love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmastime
Some of the best sashimi I've had this year - shima aji, saba, tai sea bream with Japanese bottarga, and aji horse mackerel. Man. The chef clearly respects is fish. 🐟 #Ronin

Udon so flavorful my companion asked about what kind of cheese they used. There is no cheese here. Just really good udon from Japan, a very concentrated clam dashi, and miso with a load of chopped up clams. Well done! #Ronin

Well, hello. ❤ Damn ... You're pretty

The Hong Kongers have leveled up the fish ball game, giving more variety (Pork neck!) and basting it in this spicy curry tinged sauce. They also have this fake "sharks fin" soup with a lot of black vinegar which hits the spot when it's cool out. 😍🤘🏼🎉
And as I wait to go home, I pee in front of the prettiest urinal mural ("ural") I've ever seen. Well done, Hong Kong. Sa uulitin!
This is from Arch Jordi Fauli - the Catalan man who's spent 25 years interpreting and building to finish Gaudi's Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. That is true dedication!
This is Jeanne Gang of #StudioGangArchitects in Chicago (next year's guest city), showing one of the most interesting projects this weekend: they're designing an old airport by the waters of Chicago, making it into a space for nature - to be enjoyed by everyone in the dense city. Their inspiration? The paths of migratory birds who fly over the islet. Inspiring and amazing!!!
An artist's dedication...
One of Tokyo’s most unique, beloved coffee experiences is coming to an end: Omotesando Koffee, tucked in a tiny, traditional Japanese house a few blocks from the bustling Omotesando shopping street, will close at the end of the year, the shop confirms to Quartz.

This is Chelsia Lau - this lady designs for Ford. She's does everything from foosball tables, to chairs they've displayed in Milan, to the interiors of a McLaren, to this: an ice cream sandwich. Nuts! 😜

Martí Guixé of Barcelona. He's a product designer and also happens to make things that relate to food. Like this: a solar powered restaurant. Paint a square and that's your restaurant. If you want to smoke, step out do the white square. Open only on sunny days. Tsk. I love this guy too!
