    Here’s what I read last week: 1. I will really, really miss The Toast. 2. Bill Cunningham was a rare gem and I was very sorry to hear of his death. Because I really, really think you should know about him, here are two articles. 3. The present and future of the Washington Post, courtesy of…

    I have an uneasy relationship with summer. I love that I shift to a more laid-back way of life, and that I can take more time to explore. I hate the heat and how it stifles both my body and creativity, making me feel incredibly unproductive. I’ve lived in Southern California my entire life, and every summer is…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. The zen of the Buzzfeed Tasty video. 2. Hillary Clinton, “superpredators” and the deep roots of mass incarceration in the United States. 3. Lost in Trumplandia. (This is very, very good.) 4. The most important sentence on this article about Instagram’s switch to an algorithmic feed: “Our current…

    I spent an extra-long weekend in Seattle last week, so I didn’t have much time to read on the Internet / compile a roundup before I left on Thursday. That means that this week you get double the links, which also means double the partying. Here’s what I’ve read lately: 1. Kinfolk and the hipster aesthetic. 2.…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. This article about Tumblr teens was wild at every turn. 2. I’ve never been a huge fan of Buzzfeed’s content (besides a really great podcast called Another Round), but I’ve always found their business strategies and virality fascinating. Read this interview with Buzzfeed’s publisher and you’ll see what…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. A deeper and comparative look at Humans of New York. (For the record, I’ve never been a big fan of HONY.) 2. The Tetris effect is exactly why I can’t play puzzle games on my phone anymore. 3. Dorms for grownups, in the vein of coworking. (This sounds uncomfortable.)…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. Read this profile of Ina Garten ASAP. 2. This article about hair as a gender marker and what it does as a gender marker was really fascinating. (The New Republic had a lot of good stuff this week and I don’t traditionally link more than once to the same publication,…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. I loved this essay about annotating Alice in Wonderland and the contemporary connection of Genius. This is the kind of literary analysis content I’m here for. 2. The influence of Kanye West’s “808s and Heartbreak” on the rap world of 2015. 3. A French history of fancy frames. 4.…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. I follow Anne Helen Petersen on Twitter, and was not surprised that this profile on Alison Brie was so well-written and so thoughtful. A must-read. (Also, I like how Buzzfeed is stepping up its design game.) 2. This is a great article that explains the history and methodology…

    I’d like to know where July went. Please tell me. Anyway, here’s what I read this week: 1. iTunes is the worst re: metadata. 2. You all are sleeping on the Arctic Monkeys, but the South Americans are not. This article also has some interesting things to say about South America infrastructure and the power of…
