Just a little (link) love: Conquering that wall edition

I’m entertained by Nicole’s car-buying guide.
Facebook is evil and so are their partner companies, as employers
Speaking of evil, it’s time to dump Google Chrome, too. They’re tracking all our data.
Angela’s thoughts (two posts!) on slowing down for FI.
My favorite theory on parenting so far – Sarah’s Grand Unified Theory of Parenting
One Frugal Girl and I remain anonymous for many similar reasons.
This is a thoroughly depressing article because I live in California and we’re close enough to the coast that we may have to worry about this soon, but it’s an important read. Also the LA Times made a game: Can you save your town? This will be as successful as my attempts at Oregon Trail, I’m sure.
What Does Division of Labor Look Like In Your Household? How feminist are we really? I anticipate feeling like this a bit when JB starts kindergarten. I don’t know WHY because PiC frequently takes the lead on child-education meetings: he calls into the parent-teacher meetings, he makes time to attend the voluntary events, he does more than his fair share of parent-teacher facetime. There’s no reason for me to think that he wouldn’t do the same for elementary school. But I suspect that I’m going to still feel responsible/unwarranted guilt just because that’s how I’m geared and because elementary school will be closer to me than daycare is to him.
LOOK at that baby go!

Haha I totally meant to write just an intro on my blog not a whole second post ๐
They both deserved a little love! ๐
Great links this week (as usual)!
Our division of labor isn’t very feminist and I’m not sure how to go about remedying this. This isn’t to say T actually has more free time than I do. I don’t think he does. It’s just the specific chores/things we do are very traditional in many cases.
My take is that if the division, traditional or not, works for you both then that’s feminist. Because my interpretation is that it needs to be something that both parties are happy with, not just the male half.
