Elsewhere in the office, someone has modified a sign to say “Goat closet.” (In a bit of a letdown, it only holds coats.)

Nothing five bandaids won’t fix.

I love this Tumblr so much. My favorite ever, I think, and I love “Animals Talking in Caps” a LOT.

Mitt Romney being Mitt Romney.

To an almost unbelievable degree.

Good lord, a mixed-race person who is president of the United States just endorsed gay marriage several years after passing health care reform. Do you know how many of those things were inconceivable 5 years ago? You can be happy about this without having to be happy about everything else the man or the country does. Tomorrow morning we should certainly go back to being unhappy about drones and torture and global warming and everything else, but for today, let’s not pretend this was inevitable. This moment is a reasonably big deal. It’s a good thing, and it didn’t have to happen, but it did. The fact of its happening can be good without saying anything about the goodness of the person doing it. There’s still a ways to go, but this had to happen before we got there, and now it has. Hooray. Have a small drink.

We work in the dark—we do what we can—we give what we have.

We work in the dark—we do what we can—we give what we have.

Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen.

The people of Mexico were lined up along the streets to see the Pope. This little guy thought otherwise.

I blame it on the kids today lacking in classic cartoon knowledge.

Just yesterday I was talking to a kid (sadly, kid = “someone under 30” these days) who had recently resolved a seemingly intractable problem in her life and I was like, “What’s gonna be your piano now?” which she did not get. I was all, “We always have a piano hanging over our head, and when we somehow get rid of the current piano we find ourselves a new one,” and she looked at me as if I were crazy. I dunno, maybe I am, but admit it, you just looked up at your own piano.

newsweek:

Here’s this week’s cover, on newsstands and the iPad tomorrow morning. And the summary of the corresponding story:

In an age where women are dominating - in the workplace, at school, at home - why are they seeking to be dominated in their love lives? Recent media portrayals have shown that a rising number of modern women fantasize about being overpowered, while studies are turning out statistics that bewilder feminists. New shows like HBO’s Girls and books like Fifty Shades of Grey are showcasing the often hidden desire for powerlessness. But why? Katie Roiphe examines the submissive yet empowered female in Newsweek. “It is perhaps inconvenient for feminism that the erotic imagination does not submit to politics, or even changing demographics,” she writes.

We haven’t seen the cover story yet, but color us intrigued! Let’s hear your pre-thoughts, tumblr.

Are you guys fucking kidding with this cover? Just wondering.

We are ugly, but we have the music.
