Tried my hand at the uplifting lady quote game today. Figured this was more appropriate for NPR than “Fuck you. Pay me.” which is how Kanye and I both really feel.
.@parksandrecnbc Infinite Jest reference 1&2. Wow.
As if I needed another reason to love Parks & Rec. Boom.
This lone medical glove outside my law firm seems ominous.

A Buzzfeed-style article called the “20 Greatest Moments of Montell Jordan’s This Is How We Do It” video. I’ll start:
1) The floral couch covered in plastic that people are about to “Do It” on at :31.
20 moments might not be enough, actually.
Still on repeat. These kids are going to be huge this summer. (Note: I know nothing about anything.) Their record company needs to move up their release date asap so I can throw money at them and get to obsessing in earnest.

What this movie lacks in coherency, it makes up for in incoherency.
My hilarious friend summarizing our at-home theatrical experience with Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, which in my opinion lacked only an attack kraken or mega-shark or aliens. Actually just aliens. (via fiduciarydoody)
Weird day couple of days on Tumblr. Two beers deep and bored at a bar with my computer, I made this silly picture of Justin Timberlake with some text on it. Thought it was funny, posted, forget it. Woke up the next day and there were something like 7,000 notes. Holy hell? Usually my posts are the functional equivalent of one hand clapping. Since then it’s gone berserk, been promoted on the Tumblr #lol and #fashion pages and is up to something like 54 THOUSAND notes. Tumblr really, really likes JT; I’m not taking any credit.
Anyway, I think this comment I made to Jess about Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is way funnier because THAT MOVIE IS BONKERS, but it only has 5 notes. So I am obviously wrong. Hello new followers!

A gift.

If my interests were Venn diagramed (Maine, tiny houses and gardening), this photo would be the perfect illustration for where they overlap.

We’ve perfected this great pancake, from the stovetop to the oven.
Jess, do you want to make a baby with me this weekend??
I know that getting high and drunk are your priorities, but it’s too obvious.
He knew, unfortunately, that the security he felt was an illusion—the temporary victory of mind over matter. And the flimsy walls of his delusion were susceptible to any number of infringements, except of course what he yearned for most: passion.
On repeat. Highly recommended. Very karaoke-to-your-cat-while-you-make-pasta-to-save-money-even-though-you-would-rather-have-a-steak-friendly.

Putting aside the fact that quoting Snoop Dogg to a brilliant, award-winning author is basically everything that is wrong with Millennials, this short interview with George Saunders on the Paris Review blog is really lovely. It’s not very pull-quotable, but here’s an interesting thought about modern language and valuing both high-brow and low-brow culture:
I find it exciting to think that whatever language the culture produces can be grist for the literary mill - well, and that it would HAVE to be, you know? And that goes for extra-linguistic things too - whatever thought patterns are manifesting out there, have to be interesting to us as writers. Part of “growing” ourselves as writers (there…there’s a mod usage there) is to keep expanding our vision of “what is art” outward to accommodate whatever is…out there, in reality.
Also he talks about Nicki Minaj, which is worth the price of a click alone!
