Just a little (link) love: White Collar Edition
August 13, 2015
I feel sheepish saying so but I wouldn’t take it amiss if you wanted to nominate me for a FinCon award. Or feel free to nominate Abby and Donna since they’ll actually be attending. I’m told attendance isn’t mandatory but I can never travel in September so maybe this can be a consolation prize. š
It’s been a while since we last watched White Collar. I don’t even know if it’s still on but the first few seasons were entertaining the first time around and darn if Caffrey’s style isn’t dapper as hell.
This time last year: We were closing escrow on the rental property
Five years ago: I was learning how to shop for a smaller family
CAREER + MONEY THINGS
Is it really that upsetting that women demand value for value? If so, I’d like to examine why.
SF real estate just likes to keep ramping up the ridiculous.
Speaking of SF and ridiculous, the economic privilege here is something else too
FUN THINGS
Fae, the fresh-baked baby Congrats to Lauren, Kamel and Gabe!
Another fresh-baked baby, congrats to Kat & Mr. Feather!
Nichelle Nichols will boldly go up into the air in SOFIA, the world’s largest flying observatory
No, apparently robots can’t trust Americans.Ā Sorry we suck, HitchBOT. Seriously, what’s wrong with us that a robot can’t travel without getting decapitated, among other things?
INTERESTING THINGS
Chris Evans on handling his anxiety I wish so hard that I’d seen this when Mom was suffering from anxiety.
Thanks to Nicole and Maggie, now I know Cara Delevingne’s name and I like that she’s not putting up with the BS junket answers.
Babies are hard frakkin work. Saying so doesn’t mean you’re depressed, don’t love your babies or some other weird nonsense.
Jealous dogs + babies are problematic. Learn to deal with it. Don’t set your dog up for failure if you’re expecting a new baby. It’s not ok.
Amy Poehler isn’t perfect but I do like that she doesn’t shrink from being herself.*
*I would like to see more of this with not just socially acceptable thin white women.
I LOVE that we’re talking about women’s unpaid labor in the mainstream finally. I also find the backlash completely unsurprising. Le sigh.
