Just a little (link) love: It’s Thursday Already Edition
September 3, 2015
This time last year: We lost a member of our family
Five years ago: I was a wreck & worried about wearing out PiC
I’m not sure how we’ve arrived here, at Thursday, already. It feels like we just saw friends over the weekend, and then I blinked and then … ?? Was anyone prepared for this to be Thursday?
CAREER + MONEY THINGS
I think of my brain like an axe.
Trading on the Amish name and culture while simultaneously insulting them
FUN THINGS
Harry Potter and Tumblr thoughts
If monkeys can have manners, so can we!
FREE BOOKS by way of the Baen Free Library I feel like a bit of a dunce that I can’t figure out how to get them into my Kindle easily but whatever, I just read the books online and have discovered a few new authors I like.
I won’t pay $60 for leggings but if I would, these would be super fun.
INTERESTING THINGS
I am a temporary antibody-factory for LB and that is a really cool thing.
Racism is alive and well in the Bay Area (by Crystal)
Also specifically, racism in Alameda County
I knew Appalachians were discriminated against but it’s worse than I thought. What can we do about this?
Um, Uber, that’s not a Perpetual Ride. That’s a bus line.
Treat moms like dads in parenting? Or vice versa? I don’t see that happening anytime soon but we don’t stand for the assumption that only I am the parent here either. Instead of relying on school administrators who seem to be operating in the 1950s, though, I have decided to create a shared parents’ email address. As a general rule, I don’t do shared accounts of any sort but this one is for household and family things so that there’s no assumption that just I will be representing the family / kids.
