I have some links for you this Thursday!
Summer is always the season that weird braid trends catch on, and I couldn’t be happier about it. I still remember sitting in my kitchen in Bologna trying to figure out how to fishtail braid. It was a struggle but I persevered! Anyway, now I’m struggling with this “alternative braid” tutorial. It’s a great tutorial, and it looks really easy, but I think I need to start on somebody else’s head. Volunteers?
“Guys to for looks, girls go for status” — who here hasn’t heard somebody try to back this statement up with biology? I mean, really. I did not sit down in Dr. Cohen’s 9th grade biology class to discover that red blood cells carry oxygen and men want to bang supermodels. My theory is that both genders go for status, but the easiest way for a woman to get status is through her looks, so men go for good looking women as a side effect. I mean, aesthetics too, I bet. Anyway, Kevin (who wrote this post) is also featured on my press page. He’s a good dude. It’s no wonder these good men want him on their team.
Mari over at Mari’s Notebook (pssst Mari, by the way, I’m certain we have some mutual friends) has compiled a list of her most-worth-it course readings. Seeing as I’m always the person who shows up to class unprepared the one day that the reading was really engaging and informative, I’m keeping this one bookmarked. Also, anybody who recommends [amazon asin=0205830765&text=Style: The Basics of Clarity and Grace] over the awful but more often recommended [amazon asin=0205313426&text=Strunk and White] is good in my book.
Does your summer internship suck? If so, maybe it’s illegal! Seriously, though, a lot of unpaid interns are basically just doing shitty work (that someone should be getting paid for). And we wonder why millennials move back in with their parents.
The other day, I was about to google something on my phone, and my most recent google searches came up as possibilities. It was all
- crochet stitch
- betty Friedan quotes
- hygiene
- jelly drug store nail
- one direction erotic gif
- how to move to Canada
- cost unicycle
- you shut your whore mouth
- fifth of july
If you think that sounds like poetry, you will love Google Poetics.
The post it’s link thursday! appeared first on that girl magazine.
