    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.)…

    Although I’ve had a difficult time transitioning to a post-grad life over the last few months, I’ve had some really sweet moments this week that make me excited about my fledgling career and how many opportunities there are to grow. I’ve also had some frustrating moments this week where I’ve wondered what I’ve gotten myself…

This guy is the most prolific editor on Wikipedia, and has made more than 1.5 million edits across the website. 3.…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. The secret to great driving songs. 2. This story about a New England magazine that has managed to stay in business for 80 years makes me believe in the future of journalism. 3. After reading about it and how it’ll stream Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest movie, I think…

    I’ve had this quote from Ira Glass saved for awhile, but one of my closest friends, Valerie, sent it to me this week — a very trying week for me — and it is so incredibly profound to me now that I’m trying my very best to remember it. Nobody tells this to people who…

  • Link Party: 7/6-7/10

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. I love Diane Keaton, and this New Yorker profile from the 1970s is fantastic. 2. Why babies in medieval art look like ugly old men. 3. I say it every week on Twitter, but Rachel McAdams as Ani Bezzerides is truly the best part of this season of True…

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. A fascinating mini-profile on Louis Sarno, a musicologist that lives amongst the Bayaka in the Central African Republic. 2. It’s okay to run through The Six with your woes and then cry about it, Drake. 3. What the new Twitter Highlights tells us about Twitter and ourselves. 4.…

    This week was not a good one for me, creatively or academically. But I’m bouncing back, and will have more posts next week. But here’s what I  was able to read: 1. I like to think that this profile of The New Yorker query proofreader Mary Norris is a projection of my future. 2. Ruth Bader…

  • Link Party: 1/12-1/16

    Weird, weird, weird week. But here’s what I read: 1. A fascinating article about whether or not homelessness in Sim City is a bug or a feature. 2. With the help of her friends, Joan Traub Ades helps student musicians in the Manhattan School of Music find outfits for performances. 3. The working life of Gwyned Filling, the poster…
