Three Things Thursday: The New Look, Detachol, and Bike Lanes
Three things can change your Thursday. One thing can change your world.
Hello,
The feedback from the initial Three Things Thursday was incredible—thank you. So…let’s keep it going.
Here are three things that brought me joy, added value to my life, made me laugh, made me cry, solved a problem, or just made life a little more interesting. Basically–cool stuff worth passing along.
Show – The New Look [Episode link]
I wasn’t expecting to like this show as much as I did. Why? Because it’s about fashion–and if you ask my wife, that’s not exactly my area of interest (or appearance). I buy new clothes every 5–10 years…lately, it’s closer to 10.
But after the first episode, I was hooked. The New Look is so much more than a story about fashion. It’s about history, values, perseverance, hope, entrepreneurship, family, and legacy. It’s beautifully made and unexpectedly emotional. If you love history, drama, or stories of triumph, you’ll enjoy this one.
Tool – Detachol Adhesive Remover
I first came across Detachol Adhesive Remover during my emergency medicine residency at Bellevue Hospital. We used it constantly to remove sticky bandages without tearing skin.
These days, I use it for the everyday annoyances–removing sticker residue or anything with leftover glue (always an issue when trying to peel labels off of things). Just this week, I had to peel off an old parking sticker from my windshield, and it left a mess. A little Detachol on a cotton ball, and within seconds the glass was spotless.
I don’t use it often, but every time I do, it makes me smile. It’s one of those small, underrated tools worth keeping in the house. Hard to find, but this particular brand is made in Ferndale, Michigan–just down the road from where I lived years ago.
Video – Bike Lanes by Casey Neistat
This one’s pure fun. It’s a short video, but it’s vintage Casey Neistat–creative, clever, and laugh-out-loud funny. A reminder that sometimes the simplest ideas, when done well, can make the biggest impact.
Here’s to another week of small joys and simple discoveries.
Always ❤️📚💡
