Valentine's window decorations
I have to design and make a Valentine’s Day window display. Does anyone have any nice suggestions or ideas? I’d like to go beyond just the usual hearts and pink and create something elegant and atypical in a lovely way. À la Anthropologie windows :) Pretty ironic for someone who’s never celebrated this holiday, don’t you think? (//’v’//) Oh, and it’s for a...

Diana Wynne Jones obituary →
Renowned children’s fantasy and science-fiction author with a dedicated following NO.  WHAT.  I had no idea (found out as I tried to find an older Howl’s cover).  She was one of my favorites growing up… (…and now still, but I couldn’t think off the top of my head of a grammatically un-awkward way to work it in, although I can understand if your belief is...

NO, why is Picnik closing?
Does anyone know?  I don’t see the reason on their site… I admit I barely used it, but it did come in handy in a pinch.  Online editing… UPDATE: Read a couple articles, learned little.  Here’s one of them.

Another perspective on the whole Bandai thing →
First result on Google.  The first one was pretty random too, but I figured since it was pretty heavily on the company’s side, I might as well link to this one also, which argues against the company (since I read it, and the linked blog post). Either way, the business practices discussed sound kind of messed up.  I wonder how Topless Robot came by that insider (I would guess?) info.

The Joy of Quiet  →
“Internet rescue camps in South Korea and China try to save kids addicted to the screen.” I guess I shouldn’t find this hilarious, but I do, in a kind of dark way. via Carlos on Fb.

Mail a brick to junk mailers using paid postage
Send a brick to junk and bulk mail spammers on their dime using paid postage direct marketing envelope revenge Via my friend Taa on Fb.  I feel a bit bad about it, but at the same time, it’s also hilarious.  It would be nice if doing this really does result in a decrease in junk mail. The page includes a set of illustrated instructions.

Human Merely Being: What does it mean to be Asian... →
voguedissent: It means that you’re bi-cultural: both Asian and American, yet neither at the same time. In Asia, you’re American; in America, you’re Asian. You are also bi-cultural in the sense that you walk a fine line between being a person of color and being a token white. It means that…
