– A nobody’s guide to the Oscars by Neil Gaiman
(via The Syllabi: Reading the Oscars)
“How would you want to be eaten? If you were definitely going to be eaten.” “I’d like to be eaten at a big meal, by lots of people. I’d have been roasted, maybe, or stewed. Lots of people would be there, friends, and they’d enjoy me over wine and good conversation and it’d be fun. At the end of the night the host would hug everyone as they left, and...

Missing-E feature request
Can you make it so that when I click Tumblr’s ridiculous ‘I agree to keep using what we dumbly refer to as a hack’ dialog it actually remembers my choice like it should? Because apparently Tumblr apparently can’t handle that tiny bit of functionality itself. Also, irony.

Sure, you could add another ricochet to the echo chamber, or you could take a stand and be the brave, lone voice of resistance, the first writer to finally question the authenticity of this trend from a fundamental perspective. Maybe no teens are texting. Maybe there are no teens. Write an article about that.

TWEETUMBLUP IN TORONTO! Saturday, June 16
torontup:
Come to Toronto! See Toronto stuff! Meet Toronto people! Drink Toronto drinks! Stare at Canadians! They probably won’t have a gun. If you’re already from Toronto or Canada, some of this stuff won’t be as exciting. I’m sorry.
There are two Jays games that weekend, and NXNE is on, so there should be plenty to do if you’re easily bored.
There’s a farm in the middle of the city. There’s...

Chronicle

My only real criticism is...

'Jon' by George Saunders →
I want to possess all the articulate I can, because otherwise there we will be, in non-designer clothes, no longer even on TrendSetters & TasteMakers gum cards with our photos on them, and I will turn to her and say, Honey, uh, honey, there is a certain feeling but I cannot name it and cannot cite a precedent-type feeling, but trust me, dearest, wow, do I ever feel it for you, right now. And...
Windows to the unconscious
A few nights ago I dreamt I was walking on an empty, infinite plane with a phone with no credit. Shane kept texting me inane details from his life and I couldn’t text him back to tell him to stop. This went on and on as I walked over the infinite, flat plane. It was very annoying.
