JR is a French street artist who became famous for posting photographs of everyday people around cities of the world - from Paris, to the favelas of Rio, and the crumbling buildings of Shanghai.

Who do you write like? →
Possibly the most awesome procastination tool the internet has produced in a long time.. Check which famous writer you write like by entering in a couple of paragraphs of text. Apparently, I write like Vladimir Nabokov, the Russian author of Lolita (which, incidentally, I’ve never read) and H. P.

– Simone de Beauvoir, La Cérémonie des Adieux Un petit peu nihiliste, peut-être, mais c’est vrai - à la fin, je ne suis rien si je n’ai aimé personne et si je n’ai pas essayé pour quelque chose.

The most amazing flickr group ever! →
Almost as exquisite as the Moleskinerie group, this Flickr set is dedicated solely to delightful little drawings of “What I Wore Today”. Some of them are just beautiful to look at, others are an inspiration for future laundry/party/dressup days.

So you wanna tear the night apart? →

hmmm: Neil Gaiman on gendered literature →
