Useful Read/Unread Bookshelf

Love this creative bookshelf designed by the typography and design loving people at Mebrureoral that would definitely encourage me to finish all of my unread books.

(via escapekit)

Where is the shelf that says “honestly I will probably never read this but it seemed like a good idea at the time”?

I am ashamed to be part of the 80%. Maybe if I ride my bike enough I’ll be sufficiently hungry to finish a whole pie.

Quora answer to: What are some peculiarities of American culture which are not easily understood by foreigners?

Jaap, you tricked me into going back for a second-chance look at Quora. Including the feminism tag.

What a goddamned fucking worthless cesspool of self-important dumb THAT was. Is there some hidden part of the site where the actual feminists have interesting conversations?

I’m kind of sad that my Internet existence has been reduced to 140 character quips and reblogging pretty pictures, but all the prefab serious discussion forums seem terrible and I don’t have the energy to drive my own blog anymore.

I’ve had better luck with more “specialized” tags like “third-wave feminism”. But Quora is still far from a space that’s free of mansplaining.

Maybe it just needs a critical mass of feminists willing to ~~deliver righteous smackdowns~~ engage in a progressive dialectic? A “quorum” if you will?

Any open site needs a critical mass of smackdowns if it’s going to maintain reasonable feminist discourse. But assembling a critical mass while conforming to what appears to be an existing cultural expectation that one should treat questions like “why is telling someone to dress modestly different from telling people to lock their doors?” as though they are deserving of a serious answer rather than an insta-ban… what a hassle.

I’ve been enthused about delivering Feminist 101 smackdowns in the past and maybe I will feel that way again someday, but right now I’d rather amputate my own leg with a ballpoint pen.

In other news, Seattle is now coming up on its third day of being enveloped in a thick, all-encompassing fog.

Which sounds kind of fun and romantic at first, but let me tell you, it gets old quickly and moves on to creepy shortly after that.

It would still be fun and romantic if it weren’t for the AIR POLLUTION THAT MAKES MY EYEBALLS SAD. It’s like I’m living in Los Angeles again.

Little Rabbit Foo-Foo has a shame.

One of my first memories of elementary school is of feeling super horrible about this song, because I got into the story enough to experience the guilt and shame of the good fairy’s reprimand, which only got worse as Bunny Foo-Foo inexplicably continued with the bad behavior. Then something awful happened to an adorable bunny.

Why would you want to bop mice on the head anyway.
