Lazy Sunday: 24 March

I’m on vacation still, so I’m leaving you these things to read in my absence:

  • When I’m hideously rich, all my presents will come from here, so begin currying favor with me right now.
  • I disagree with the fatshaming they’re doing with these ads, I DO agree that soda is really, really bad for you, and not all of them are like that. Your thoughts?
  • North Korea hates Hillary Clinton.
  • I’m not surprised by this, but also unnerved that Google knows all kinds of stuff about me.
  • Kate Moss is reads (kinda NSFW).
  • BEFORE THEY WERE STARS: JD SALINGER AS YOU’VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE.
  • Kids from around the world have neatly organized their favorite things. Please look.
  • How to spot the ax murderer in your book club.
  • If you don’t read Anne Helen Petersen‘s Scandals of Classic Hollywood, you’re doing yourself a disservice.
  • The romantic comic book anthropologist’s blog is back!

So, what are you reading this weekend?

Paring Way, Way Down

I’m pretty fascinated with Graham Hill and his tiny apartment and pared-down life. He wrote about ditching his stuff and getting tiny in the New York Times. His life really appeals to me, but it’s perhaps a little too spartan for me. What do you think?

The Doctor, the Bikini Model, and the Case of the Unchecked Ego

Please raise your hand if you had a professor this brilliant and this delusional in college. If your hand isn’t raised, I assume you either chose to educate yourself or went to one of those places where everyone calls everyone by their first name or something. Related: lady has either great abs or a great Photoshopper.

Prego + Science = Oreos

Surely you’ve seen this by now, but if not, go read it. No one is allowed to make fun of me anymore for not eating things that come in packages.
