I HAVE SO MUCH TO DO BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS. READ THIS AND LET ME MAKE MY LISTS IN PEACE:
– Why, yes, I DO want a hand-switched Kanye West tweet. (BoingBoing)
– I’m pretty sure I only need to give you the headline for this article to induce you to read it: THE LIBRARY PHANTOM RETURNS. (NPR)
– It’s so thoughtful of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds to make out in front of the sign for her sister’s B and B. Also: we should all probably go to that B and B and serenade Robyn Lively with a chorus of “Top That” from Teen Witch, right? (Lainey, YouTube [and you really need to watch that video. You really do.])
– Speaking of fine, fine films: 2011’s biggest film controversies. (Flavorwire)
– Wow, the Aesop store in NYC is COOL. It’s made of newspaper! Well, kind of. (Refinery29)
– On the topic of newspapers, this Los Angeles Times feature — celebrating its photography over the last 130 years — is pretty amazing. (LA Times)
– Food and Wine named the 50 Best Bars in America. 3 down, 47 to go! (Food and Wine)
– I screamed aloud when I read this headline: “Is Selena Gomez really planning a Christmas proposal to Justin Bieber?” I hope to GOD that proposal is, “hey, wanna go see The Muppets?” (Celebitchy)
– The Pantone Color of the Year is “TANGERINE TANGO,” which sounds DELICIOUS. (Time)
– Let’s look inside Chloe Sevigny’s closet. (Fashionista)
– Here are just pictures of books in a variety of offices. I’d take a picture of the books in my office, but my office is a mess right now. (Buzzfeed)
– You obviously want to take a look at this Tumblr. It’s devoted solely to the many ensembles of Clair Huxtable. (Clair Huxtable: Mom Style Icon)
– When Vogue goes out of business, it will be because people can’t stand to buy a magazine that includes a $900,000 gift guide. I MEAN ARE YOU KIDDING ME? GET A GRIP, LADIES. (Jezebel)
– Aw! The gay penguins adopted a chick. (No, seriously.) Mazel tov, penguins! (Time)
