Intricate and impermanent

 

 

 

The murals of Suzan Drummen are astoundingly gorgeous.  Go look!

Livid

This article on civil forfeiture will make you wonder what sort of country we live in. And make you livid. One has to wonder how they thought incentivizing this sort of shit would end well.

A thousand times this

Why society still needs feminism.


I honestly cannot understand women who do not call themselves feminists.  Not a bitchy thing or a pity thing, just a complete non-compute in my mind.  

So tired

Hilarious advice on getting babies to sleep.

Nicely obsessive

Hogwarts made out of legos.  Wowee.

Not even there yet

The Honest Toddler is my favorite twitter feed these days.  Find it at @HonestToddler

Unfit

This NPR piece on disability benefits is really enlightening.

Celestial

A really lovely article on beauty.

Beginnings

This photo looks like the beginning of a story I would want to hear.

Found via A Disaster in Domestication.

Natty dresser

I'm a fan of a well-written obit and this one is amazing. 

I also have a serious soft spot for obits featuring photos of the elderly deceased from when they were young.

Tugs at your heart

Senior dogs across America makes my heart melt a bit.  Dogs are made of awesome and old dogs are the bestest.

Cause its true

WTF Plus makes me laugh.

Intricate

Beatrice Coron - you could lose yourself in her pieces.

Berate

I have tried so many apps to capture my to do lists.  I love making lists.  I love crossing stuff off.  There are about a bazillion apps out there to help me with this.  Carrot, however, adds humor and judgement.  If I neglect my to do list for too long, the app starts berating me.  If I kick ass and get a bunch of stuff done, I get little funny rewards. 

 



 

 

Striking

This fox graffiti art is amazing.

Transformation

A few weeks ago in a fit of winter blues, I took myself off to the Franklin Park Conservatory to see Aurora Robson's exhibit and bask in plants and warmth.  She transforms waste into beautiful organic sculptures - somewhat Chihuly-like but better in its own way.  It was stunning. 

Last mile

Problems

Fantastic response to the over-used and under-thought phrase first world problems.

Singing in the dead of night

This search on Tumblr yielded such pretty results. 

Hats

This article on Dr. Seuss' hats made me happy.
