In order to avoid it going bad on us, Dave just made an entire package of bacon.

I think I made the right decision.

fishingboatproceeds: You can preorder signed copies of this poster now at DFTBA Records. The incredibly complicated, tri-continental story of this poster will be told in today’s vlogbrothers video, but basically: I wrote a book, then a 16-year-old nerdfighter from the Philippines named Nica was inspired to make artwork depicting Hazel and Augustus, and then a young nerdfighter from Norway named Ashild turned it into a poster and added the quote from TFiOS. So basically this poster captures the strange and wonderful way that tumblr facilitates the making of strange and wonderful things. (All preorders will be signed by me, naturally, due to my signing addiction.)

You may not agree with a woman, but to criticize her appearance — as opposed to her ideas or actions — isn’t doing anyone any favors, least of all you. Insulting a woman’s looks when they have nothing to do with the issue at hand implies a lack of comprehension on your part, an inability to engage in high-level thinking. You may think she’s ugly, but everyone else thinks you’re an idiot.

bookwormbreakfast: notnadia: apsies: motherjones: Guys. Guys. GUYS. Check out this photo. Pete Souza: “This is one of those rare instances where my presence indirectly became a part of this reaction from those pictured in the photograph. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had just accidentally dropped all of her briefing papers onto the Oval Office rug and she, the President and Vice President all reacted in a way that indicated that surely I wouldn’t get a photo of that to embarrass her.” This photo makes me believe in everything. FLAWLESS.

And so begins the “oh shit, I have to fit in a wedding dress soon” portion of break.

Not as awesome as the “How many Pringles can a human consume?” portion.
