21 songs I've been listening to all day

Thanks to Spotify I have discovered a lot of talented musicians who have fallen into undeserved near-obscurity. I'd never heard of MAVICA, Olivia Dean, or Small Million until their names and songs appeared on Discover Weekly. Let's start the playlist with Apollo (New Love). Some Googling revealed that Tommy Ashby is a Scottish singer-songwriter that has a PhD in psychoacoustics, whatever that means. Enjoy!

It's Beautiful, But Also Could Explode

Ah, Taal Lake. Admirable, breathtaking, a perfect postcard of tranquility. And then you remember. Oh right, there's a volcano inside the lake, inside an island, inside another body of water.

Why Walking is Basically Magic

I like walking. It's really convenient and no fancy equipment is required. You can do it anywhere, anytime. It's also good for my heart and can somehow untangle the chaotic mess that is my brain. It's meditative, allowing my thoughts to flow freely and my anxieties to melt away. Whether it's a short stroll through your neighborhood or a long vigorous hike in the countryside, this TED-Ed video explains why walking is lauded as a cure for everything from boredom to slightly-too-tight jeans.
