- The End of Empathy.
- Stealing Books in the Age of Self-Publishing. *sigh*
- Why Do the Poor Make Such Poor Decisions? Despite the inflammatory title, a decent article.

Things of Note:
You guys. It actually happened. I finally unearthed my craft table from the mountain of wedding stuff and random piles that it’s been living under for basically the past year!!! I can now do fun artsy crafty things again! Like, I dunno, screen printing. You remember that shop I used to have? Yeah. I also want to play around with watercolors and hand-lettering some more.
Of course, I managed to clean my office right before I’ll be leaving town for a week, but hey- it’ll be waiting when I get back.
What did you accomplish over this past weekend?
