CAREER + MONEY THINGS
Can you be a good leader if you’re hard-working and trustworthy, but not innovative? and other answers to career type questions.
Now I want a Birkin bag. Not for the reasons you’d think. Well, ok, you know me so maybe for exactly the reasons you’d think.
FUN THINGS
Magical cherry blossom tree! Neat, I’d like this for LB. But maybe after ze stops licking everything.
Dogs with tongues sticking out just a little cracks me up. Thanks to Vicky Hay!
Star Wars tsumtsums! I don’t do collectibles but they’re adorable!
Anyone want to move into the SHN Orpheum Theater with me next March?
INTERESTING THINGS
Not good: a new resistance to the last antibiotic that works on livestock and people
Also not good: MI state officials failed to comply with federal law and poisoned the residents of Flint, why aren’t they being held personally responsible? This wasn’t an accident, it was a conscious decision to use a different water source, to lie about test results, and ruin lives forever:
Lead poisoning is irreversible. Pediatricians such as Hanna-Attisha fear the Flint children who tested with elevated levels will suffer lifelong consequences.
“If you were to put something in a population to keep them down for generation and generations to come, it would be lead,” Hanna-Attisha said. “It’s a well-known, potent neurotoxin. There’s tons of evidence on what lead does to a child, and it is one of the most damning things that you can do to a population. It drops your IQ, it affects your behavior, it’s been linked to criminality, it has multigenerational impacts. There is no safe level of lead in a child.”
How Elementary beats Moffat’s Sherlock. I wasn’t expecting to be convinced, but I’d also only seen a few episodes of Elementary.
Physics teachers grade girls more harshly than boys on the same answers, way to go, teachers.
It’s not often I agree with most of what anyone has to say about marriage and how it works: …Which brings us to the most important factor of all in building a great marriage: You must foster a spirit of generosity. That means that when one partner gets lazy and starts taking advantage of the other partner’s generosity (WHICH IS INEVITABLE), the partner who feels taken for granted MUST SPEAK UP, and she must have faith that her spouse WILL WANT to fix the problem…
Humans can’t have all the fun

I saw the Birkin article too.
AND I WANT THAT TREE. For Baby Bun of course.

Is BB old enough to enjoy it yet?

Oh and I also wanted to say I’m a huge Elementary fan for exactly that article’s reasons. It is the modern-day Sherlock, but I love Sherlock too.

I keep forgetting to check to see if it’s on Netflix or anything. Good reminder!
