I meant to post this a long time ago, but I don’t think I ever did:
Dismal World: Snapshots from the not-so-happy globe, photographs (some famous) of human cruelty from the last 50 years.

Maybe this is a weird thing to post on Christmas eve, but the more I think about it, the more it seems like the perfect thing to post..

This is ridiculous:

“Environmental Protection Agency chief Stephen Johnson announced the decision Wednesday, refusing [California]’s request for a waiver that would have allowed it to cut emissions faster than a new federal plan the president signed into law Wednesday.”

California will sue the federal government over this, which is good to hear. This sounds like it’d be a ridiculous power for the federal government to have (among others). I hope Arnold calls people “girly men” when he gets sufficiently angry.

I saw the documentary Helvetica last week. As you might guess, it’s about the font Helvetica. If you enjoy learning about design and stuff, I recommend it (otherwise you probably won’t like it). Now as I travel, I can’t help but look at all the fonts used in signs. Helvetica is incredibly popular in modern signs, but it’s easy not to notice it. The documentary has a bunch of montages of font footage along with a pretty good soundtrack.
