Blogs

This is going to be one of the longest, most monstrously big posts ever because I really, really like finding interesting blogs.
I have tried to categorize them but we shall see how that goes. I will also try to write a little introductory line or two that might be wrong/uninformative.

Category I: I don’t know them, they don’t seem famous, I don’t know how I found most of them

Aunty Christ: Besides having the best name ever, Aunty Christ is really smart and fun to read. I found her while looking for the owner of a comment on the Oregonian website that I really, really liked.
Please Stop Tickling Me: Where I found Aunty Christ. I haven't read this one much but have kept it under the assumption that I knew what I was doing when bookmarking it.
My Sad Alter Ego: My Sad Alter Ego is a doctor, and is also bipolar. It's really interesting to read someone who is both a doctor and a patient.
Still Drinking: My favorite is the story about the insane sparrow, "No Freaking Way." I don't subscribe to his views on sex and gender. I'm going to try and limit caveats for any of these blogs. There are others but if I say them all it'll be a waste of time.
Dynamoaf: I found these guys searching for the phrase "fuck twitter."
Superfucksuck and another blog by the same guy, Rapex_In: Guy reminds me of Holden Caulfield.
Little Lambs Eat Ivy: Found this one on Feministing, haven't read a lot but looks good. I think she's in Harvard.
Hobolawstudent: Found on Aunty Christ. Again, haven't read a lot, looks good. Law student who may be cleaning up her online image so I don't know how long this one will be around.
Josh Blog: Concentrated, beautiful. Need to read this one more.

Category II: Thematic (This may be a stupid category but I don't care)

Post Secret: Postcard secrets
Strange Maps: Self explanatory
Passive Aggressive Notes: Self explanatory. Fun but reading it too much can leave a bad taste in the mouth. The comments are stupid.
Why Women Hate Men and its sister blog, Psychotic Letters from Men:Fun subject matter and the author of these blogs is a glorious human being.
Case in point: "While many men feel women adopt impossible-to-meet standards for their dating candidates, Philipe has effectively trumped women by listing a set of ridiculous standards that are not only stringent, but have absolutley nothing to do with a relationship whatsoever. It's like selecting a car based on the mating habits of Brazilian tree sloths."
Wooster Collective: "A celebration of street art."
A Commonplace Blog: Books. I haven't read a lot but I'm very sure it's good.
Hanzi Smatter: Every entry is a case study on why you shouldn't get a kanji tattoo unless you can read it.
Lifehacker: Fun, nerdy, interesting, but never tell yourself you'll be more efficient for reading it. It's efficiency porn. You will just waste time basking in your imagined efficiency. Or at least, that's how it happens with me.
Feministing: Fun to read, interesting. I read a comment once complaining that the main message of one of the posts was "bad feminist, no cookie." While I love this site/blog/thing I can agree that's the downside.

III: I Would Willingly Live In Their Basement and Consume Their Leftover Table Scraps Just to be Around Them (but not in a creepy way! “LOL”)

Don Hertzfeldt, animator
Ryan North, author of Dinosaur Comics
John Campbell, author of pictures for sad children
Additionally: John Campbell's Twitter, the only Twitter that I am sure is worthwhile reading. But I won't read it on my phone. For god's sake.
