Four Quick Links for Thursday Noonish

A trailer for a documentary called My Octopus Teacher. "A filmmaker forges an unusual friendship with an octopus living in a South African kelp forest." [youtube.com]

Imagined commercials from brands responding to increasingly dire circumstances. "As the US becomes a dictatorship, Subway is here for you. That's right, we're bringing back the $5 Footlong." [twitter.com]

Trump privately knew the pandemic was serious early on but deliberately downplayed it in public, leading to hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths. (Also bad: Bob Woodward knew too and kept it a secret to preserve sales of his eventual book.) [twitter.com]

Congrats to @austinkleon for 15 years of blogging! "This is my home online. It's where you can find me. If you want to know me, knock on the door, and I'll let you in." [austinkleon.com]
