Remember this scene from the HIT 1995 film Waiting to Exhale?
Well, this week has felt like the flame engulfed car and I feel like Angela Bassett.

“I’d forgotten how painful it can be to write in longhand for long stretches of time. I know it’s not as bad as digging trenches in the Amazon, but still—it’s AGONY. Your neck gets sore from staring down. You get that weird dent in your middle finger and thumb from pressing the pencil too hard. Everything around you starts to smell like old pencil shavings.”

I might be biased because my name happens to start with an “R” but this dude does pretty work/has an eye for interesting fonts and images.

On the weekends my boyfriend likes to wake up early, take my spooning arm while I am still asleep and use my finger to create iPad finger paint portraits. This is our latest “collaboration.”

“Once upon a time in 1969, a young Dutch millionaire by the name of Stanley August Miesegaes gave his acquaintance, vocalist and keyboardist Rick Davies, a “genuine opportunity” to form his own band; he could form the band of his dreams and Miesegaes would pay for it. After placing an ad in Melody Maker…” — Supertramp’s AMAZING Spotify band bio copy.

I am currently procrastinating. I was initially looking up “llama on a skateboard,” when my google image search for “black and white photos of dinosaurs” proved to be unfruitful.
I was stopping dead in my tracks by just typing in “llama”. Nice job internet.

Sabol said the most impressive dunk he ever saw came at the end of Super Bowl XXXVII, when a group of Tampa Bay Buccaneers players carried a bucket as they ran behind Coach Jon Gruden, who was excitedly sprinting down the sideline.
Sabol said the NFL Films cameramen were running alongside the group, too, giving the entire sequence a certain “National Geographic as an antelope is being stalked quality.” Finally the players dropped the liquid on Gruden as he leaped in the air, providing what Sabol said he believed to be one of the few — if not only — “flying dumps” ever recorded.
