Sunday Link Dump

Monday, September 10th, 2012

In which I read all of the internet.

Or, well, the 'Environment' folder in my feed reader.

• TreeHugger: How to DIY Adorable Snail Shell Miniature Gardens. Aww! Look at the cute wee little garden!
• The Guardian: Global food prices set to rise as drought blights US corn harvest, which led to this: World Bank issues hunger warning after droughts in US and Europe; but in the UK...
• The Guardian: Heavy rain causes chaos as summer confirmed as wettest in 100 years
• TreeHugger: How to Store Fresh Tomatoes (video)

Monday Links

Monday, July 30th, 2012

Just a round-up of things I've been reading.

• Süddeutsche: "Pussy Riot"-Anwalt Mark Fejgin: "Putin will seine Macht demonstrieren" (Deutsch): an interview with a lawyer for Pussy Riot
• Think Progress: Bombshell: Koch-Funded Study Finds 'Global Warming is Real', 'On The High End' and 'Essentially All' Due to Carbon Pollution: self-explanatory. Also not very surprising...
• The Spectator: The racism of the respectable. Warning: female genital mutilation and racism
• The Guardian: US evangelical Christians accused of promoting homophobia in Africa. Warning: homophobia (duh), colonialism, Christian supremacy
• Channel 3000:Lake Delton dyed a tourist-pleasing blue

Tuesday Terrific Tinks (Tontinued)

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

As I mentioned yesterday, WordPress hates me and messed up the post I had planned, erasing several links. Lucky for me, the sites are still in my feed reader. So, on with the show.

• Explosm.net, where you can find the Cyanide & Happiness comics
• Tree Hugger, to bring out your hippy side
• Shakesville is a self-described "progressive feminist blog about politics, culture, social justice, cute things, and all that is in between". What really won me over to this site must have been the mixture of the open threads hosted by lovely things such as a broccoli sculpture or a Commodore 64, the daily doses of cute and wonderful expressions such as "the American Family Values Children Christian Liberty Freedom Patriot Association Foundation Organization". If I ever say "multi-hyphenated" or "multi-multihyphenated", it's from there.
• Wasted Food, by Jonathan Bloom.
• Stuff Fundies Like. As an added bonus, the URL looks like "stuff undies like", which would be quite interesting, but much more NSFW.
• Margaret and Helen
• Think Progress, where commie nazi evil murderous race-and-country-betraying socialists gather to plan how to take over the world
• Steampunk Fashion
• The Featured Creature

There are more sites I visit on a regular basis, but I believe these manage to sum up what goes through my mind these days.

Monday Marvelous Mwebsites

Monday, August 1st, 2011

As I haven't done any sort of link dump in a lifetime or so, this particular entry will mostly be to sites instead of specific articles.

• Daylight Atheism is an atheist blog. It's about atheism.
• Friendly Atheist which, of course, I'm sure some would say is an oxymoron, like "gentle mass murderer" or "delicious coconut".
• Informed Comment
• Little Green Footballs
• Skepchick
• Daily Kos

Great. I had several more, but I must have messed up something while using the HTML editor so that, when I switched to the Visual editor, it fucking erased a bunch of links. I can't be bothered to re-add the other ones now.
