"I Buy Books Without Reading Them". [Book Riot]
"Operation London Bridge: the secret plan for the days after the Queen’s death".
"From Seaspeak to Singlish: celebrating other kinds of English".
"How the Internet Is Saving Culture, Not Killing It".
"Towards a True Children’s Cinema: on 'My Neighbor Totoro'". "My Neighbor Totoro is a genuine children’s film, attuned to child psychology. Satsuki and Mei move and speak like children: they run and romp, giggle and yell. The sibling dynamic is sensitively rendered: Satsuki is eager to impress her parents but sometimes succumbs to silliness, while Mei is Satsuki’s shadow and echo (with an independent streak). But perhaps most uniquely, My Neighbor Totoro follows children’s goals and concerns. Its protagonists aren’t given a mission or a call to adventure-in the absence of a larger drama, they create their own, as children in stable environments do. They play."
"Giphy launches library of more than 2,000 GIFs to teach you sign language".
"I Have Traveled Here From the Present to Warn You About Global Warming". [McSweeney's]
"I Googled ‘Intersectionality,’ So Now I’m Totally Woke". [McSweeney's]
"Lists: Product Reviews for Cat Owners". [McSweeney's]
"Despair is Not a Strategy: 15 principles of hope".
"Rabbit hole in farmer's field leads to 'mystery caves'".
"Resistance 101: Basics of Community Organizing for SF/F Creators & Consumers, Volume One: Protest Tips and Tricks". [Sam J. Miller at Uncanny Magazine]
"Ignorant jerks abusing ‘the poor will always be with you’ will always be with you". [Fred Clark/Slacktivist]
"How to talk to your non-tech friends about Net Neutrality".
"Sorry Snowflakes, Fighting Is Political". [Sarah Kurchak at the Fightland blog]
"Unbuilt Los Angeles: the city that might have been - in pictures".
"Experience: I accidentally bought a giant pig: I was told she was six months old, had come from a breeder and wouldn’t grow any bigger than a very large cat".
"Fireproof human skulls for your gas fireplace, barbeque or fire-pit". [Boing Boing]
Has anyone tried the Lucky Iron Fish for supplementing dietary iron? It looks neat. "One Lucky Iron Fish can provide you with up to 90% of your recommended daily intake of iron. It's safe for the whole family to use, and is reusable for up to 5 years. Simply boil the Fish in any liquid or broth based meals to enrich your food and drinking water with iron."
