yendi1. Here's a great profile of pickpocket/magician Apollo Robbins in The New Yorker. I was hooked from the opening anecdote.
2. Here's the Pixar-developed page for Monsters U. No, not the movie. The university in the movie. It's kind of brilliant (yes, I posted it to FB, but it's worth posting in all the places).
3. Popehat's wherein a right-libertarian sticks a toe in left-libertarianism and finds that the water is fine is one of the more interesting things I've read from someone whose politics I generally don't agree with (noting that I'm neither a right-libertarian nor a left-libertarian, but am generally more partial towards the latter).
4. This post on Tumblr starts in familiar territory (does anyone not see the abusiveness in Beauty and the Beast?), but then moves on to Love, Actually, and then makes its real point in the final paragraph about the difference between wanting to not deal with something, and wanting others to also not deal with it. Also, it uses the sentence, "Not a creature was stirring, not even the dudebros."
5. Finally,haikujaguar's long-awaited (by me, at least) Three Jaguars strip starts today! Yay!
