Just a little (link) love: You’re Welcome! edition
August 30, 2018
Have you ever been in YAPFB’s position feeling like taking a job was a mistake?
Beauty pioneer Madam C.J. Walker is best known as America’s first female millionaire. But she was also a radical activist who rallied for change far beyond the shampoo bowl. (I want to be like her when I grow up)
Mr. Tako’s cautions to investors makes me feel a little like nothing I do will be right so just do something.
Mrs. Steward on work uniforms. I am developing a very uh … shabby chic(?) uniform? I own one pair of jeans that are showing their age, a very comfy pair of athletic type pants and three pairs of leggings in variable quality and thicknesses. Most of the time the jeans and athletic pants are rotated all week, but I started rotating the black leggings with a longer top plus my super comfy cardigan. What do you wear to work and play?
What’s your perfect life?
Frogdancer’s visit to North Korea (reported here) and GQ’s reporting of the Otto Warmbier hostage story coalesced in a weird way for me.
Hattip to Zero2Fire for this link. Marc Benioff actively wielding his power as a CEO to do something retroactively and then proactively good for society.
Thanks for the link!
You’re welcome!
Aww, thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome!
Well, I got up early to do some writing before heading off to work and fell down the rabbit hole of the article about Otto Warmbier that you posted. It was fascinating. The likelihood of the poor guy attempting suicide is one that is heavily believed in the world outside the US.
It was a fascinating article. On our tour, with the same company that he went on, we had a guy who continually tried to walk around on his own and our guides were always looking for him and shadowing him. It’s pretty selfish – those guides would lose their jobs if anything bad happened.
I have to leap into the shower, dress and dash for the train now. I’ll read the other links you posted on the weekend.
Thanks for the nod my way.

Oops, sorry about that! š But you’re welcome (for the link)!
The article on erasure just makes me so angry. I’m so tired of the patriarchy.
I hear you.
