sometimes though, the thought that i have no idea where i will be in a month gets a little overwhelming. sometimes, the urge to pick up and move to an unknown city wells up inside of me. sometimes, i just want my closest friends to pick up and move to me. sometimes, i just want adventure 24/7. sometimes, i think adventure must get tiring and i want a routine where i can meet friends for coffee...

Jeff Mangum has teased us with solo shows for long enough. Neutral Milk Hotel are actually, no-bullshit reuniting and heading out on tour in 2013— 15 years after their last shows together. The schedule can be found here. Only a handful have been announced so far, but apparently there is “more to come.”
Excuse me. I’m going to party like it’s 1998.
AHHHHHHHH

Yes, Healthful Fast Food Is Possible. But Edible? →
“In recent years, the fast-food industry has started to heed these new demands. Billions of dollars have been invested in more healthful fast-food options, and the financial incentives justify these expenditures. About half of all the money spent on food in the United States is for meals eaten outside the home. And last year McDonald’s earned $5.5 billion in profits on $88 billion in sales....

The Road (and Rail) to Justice →
“But public transit services often ignore the needs of the actual public. It’s been a long time since the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the Freedom Rides. These days people rarely think of convenient, effective public transportation—mobility for all—as a vital part of an integrated social justice agenda.”
An interesting and important read. (credit: @flatteryoconnor - thanks!)

Are You Content with Weaknesses? →

Frank Ocean Can Fly →
Drugs are the record’s dominant (and tragic) motif, but the true concern of “Channel Orange” is the inextricable mingling of love and loneliness, the attachment and disillusionment and euphoria and addiction and pain that result from losing yourself in something or someone else. As Ocean put it to me, “We’re talking about substances, but we forget how intoxicating things that aren’t tangible,...

Wes Anderson’s Worlds by Michael Chabon →
“For my next trick,” says Joseph Cornell, or Vladimir Nabokov, or Wes Anderson, “I have put the world into a box.” And when he opens the box, you see something dark and glittering, an orderly mess of shards, refuse, bits of junk and feather and butterfly wing, tokens and totems of memory, maps of exile, documentation of loss. And you say, leaning in, “The world!”
