also, read the onion, because they win it today
TO READ:
- Hillary and Meryl and best friends and i will sleep happily for the rest of my days, Refinery29
- on the internet, Ryry cannot be smoted. not even by racist hackers, BuzzFeed
- with criticism, we’re still not sure about Lena Dunham (love, hate, love to hate, hate to love?) Vulture
- just say “mani pixie dream” anything and see how many think pieces are launched, Grantland
- along with lovely Reb, we wrote a recap for MKG. here’s last week’s
- if you know an introvert, or want to know an introvert, this graphic might help
- when you’re blinded by vodka, the only antidote is whiskey, natch
- i don’t watch “Community” but i do watch “Go On” and Flavorwire wrote a piece on both
- and now we know where some of new york media will be partying this holiday season, Awl. who wants to crash that BBC party with me?
- Loop lady Lauren P wrote about moms being super awful. just don’t read the comments, XOJane
- uh-oh, it looks like Instagram and Twitter are on a break. whatever will we do??? BuzzFeed
- rooftop farms, amirite? or rather, why aren’t there more of them, GOOD
- i always knew Tony Danza and i would be great friends - he also loves to clean, NYMag
- definitely don’t read MTV’s explanation of “millenials” if you want to remain unembarrassed
- newspapers really aren’t having a good season. the Long Island Press is going monthly
- nate silver is not a fan of Politico. no sir, not at all, Raw Story

- if that’s not enough, Self has a slideshow of Insanity workouts you can do for yourself (without the DVDs, that is)
- just sit down, shut the door (or vice versa) and read this piece on Bill Murray. seriously though, i love him!
- and in case you missed it, there was a GQ piece about Mr. Murray before too
- ladies of new york, stop feeling bad about your “second bag”. The Cut proves that everybody does it
- i randomly met Luther Lowe on a work trip to Vegas and of course we had a friend in common. now he’s in a BuzzFeed article about Google Reader

shockinglya lot like the old MySpace. we all still listen to Smashmouth right? BuzzFeed

- Kinfolk mag has a holiday playlist
- and so does Brooklyn mag
- poor Dave Brubeck passed away. let’s watch this great video of him

- the evian roller babies commercial: cute or creepy?
- bastion of music that it is, All Songs chose their top 50 albums of the year. even though there are still three weeks of releases left
- a Charles Bradley cover of “I’ll Slip Away,” because sometimes i like to support Florida folk
- sometimes, PSAs are magic. like when they tell you all the “dumb ways to die,” Atlantic
- i don’t care how long you’ve been together, please never break news to me in a song, Daily News
TO BUY ME:
- “The Elements of Style” comes in an illustrated version. we have no excuse for bad written form
- i’m going to LA in February and need to start dressing like Opening Ceremony’s Jenny Le, Refiner29
- this little vinyl case from Madewell is pretty necessary for giftgiving, to yourself at least
- a sea animals print please!
- a pictogram like this one Hemingway’s friends made him as a get well. seriously, guys, you’re slacking, The Vault
- everything in this home is beautiful and i want it. all of it, Brooklyn Mag
- let’s make these sazerac cookies and give them to each other as gifts. then retire to new orleans, Tasting Table
- “you are the cheese to my macaroni” seems as lovely a vow as i’ve ever heard. especially when it’s on a pillow, Paper Source
- these NYC best dressed ladies on Daily Candy’s list have some pretty nice stuff. choose from their wardrobe with me in mind
- for the kitchen, no one should be without a mortar and pestle
- and also a food thermometer please, so i don’t undercook a meat and kill us all
- all three bottles of the “best american whiskey” will do nicely to see me into 2013, grubstreet
- nearly all of the things on BuzzFeed’s list of pointless gifts. actually, nah, throw ‘em all in!
