That one time when The Dossier was your weekend playlist.

HARDY!

(thank you)

I LAUGHED OUT LOUD: Inspidered.

THEN I SCOFFED OUT LOUD: But you may have any entirely different take than me. 

CELEBRITY D.I.Y. OF THE WEEK: Michael Cera released a lo-fi indie-folk-rock album this week. It’s pretty much what you were expecting/hoping for.

SPARKLES!

DAYUM NATURE! YOU ARE SCARE-EE: Don’t go into the water. Also, gah!

HONESTLY: A lot of people who are having kids really can’t afford to be having them. This is meant as an observation and not to be misconstrued as some kind of argument against having kids. Please read that again.

GENIUS: You’re welcome. This is one of the cooler things I’ve run across. What a way to let your fans know where you’re coming from. And it is all tied into this. I’d take that. Tumblr version here.

BOOOOOO: I very much do not like this attempt to shield people from their own stupidity.

ONCE UPON A TIME:

(thank you)

SINGLE SERVE TUMBLR OF THE WEEK: Angry Birds.  No, not that kind. Then there’s this.

ETHNOCENTRIC BASTARD: I try really hard not to be one. I do make the effort. Mostly.

FASTEN YOUR BELT SEAT:

CHEEKY LITTLE MICROBIOMES: They’re making us do stuff. 

EXTRA CRISPY? The unwelcome side effect of alternative energy. Yeah, they’re probably going to have to work on this. And it’s not an isolated case. It might be an uncomfortable transition.

NOOOOOOOES: Experiencing these things in real life is on my Bucket List (NY Times link, so you might run into a pay-wall there). Yes, I have a bucket list. But only as of yesterday because of this story. And because I’m serious about seeing these things. Speaking of third rate The Postal Service rip-offs.

PERSPECTIVE: Crickey. If you’re apt to worry about asteroids and related space debris wreaking havoc on our little blue sphere, don’t even think of looking at this photograph. 

SKY CANDY: 

Asperatus clouds. I don’t know about you but there’s a lot you can think you’re seeing going on there.

THE ASPARAGUS STANK: Come for the science behind the smell. Stay for gems like  “humble chamber pot into a bower of aromatic perfume”. 

WE ARE EATING OURSELVES TO DEATH: Consequences.

SPEAKING OF CONSEQUENCES: Woe is thee. About as bad as it can get while being completely perfect.

INCOMING!
