LEX: You think plants, like when you eat them, are they screaming? LEVIN: Probably not screaming in the way that we would be screaming. However, there's plenty of data on plants being able to do anticipation and certain kinds of memory.

@joehagansays @tedgioia I would, too. You can read / listen to a bunch of them here -- lib.uidaho.edu/digital/blindf…

This might be my favorite jazz article of all time.

@ericlach I think in general they don't make movies about morning people unless you're like Rocky. And they definitely don't make movies about people reading documents.

@SomersErin @g_e_howard North Dallas Forty is excellent

I would tweet nothing but NYT obituaries if only the NYT didn't already take care of that. Here is another true gem, a graphic designer who created Beatlemania, directed a porn movie, played jazz with Charlie Watts, what a life. nytimes.com/2021/11/16/art…

"punk rock Dorothy Parker" -- this is a good one nytimes.com/2021/11/18/obi…

The New York Times's official Wrens correspondent @HugoLindgren has an important update on the Wrens. nytimes.com/2021/09/20/art…

@kitson i didn't see any of those, but my wife wrote an article or two for Plum so we have some in the house. did you work on that magazine?

@HugoLindgren Walter was as responsible for Plum magazine's look as Milton. Any chance you came across anything from that era? (Circa 2006)

Helped my father in law Walter Bernard collect the last of his things from the building on East 32nd Street that he shared for 50 years with Milton Glaser.

Milton and Gail both passed away last year.

You can find Gail Sheehy's story on the excellent longform resource @TheStacksReader thestacksreader.com/a-fistful-of-d…

And Wall Street hates arts and crafts.

One lesson, I think, is that great journalism is arts and crafts, not industry.

To fund @nymag Clay Felker had played ball with Wall Street, which stacked the deck against him in a way he did not understand.

... but because the issue includes a riveting, deliciously biased account by Gail Sheehy of how Rupert Murdoch swindled Clay Felker out of @nymag

Which Milton Glaser had saved not because he was a huge Bee Gees fan ...

Among the little gems I rescued from the trash bin was this issue of @Rolling Stone from 1977
