Jesse, I can't work out how to submit a photoset to goodstuff, but if I could, I'd submit the first three chalk photos of my (currently) penultimate posting. They're kinda cute, if you leave out the last one.

I will try to remember to go back and find it when I get to work...

The repeal of the Equal Pay law in Wisconsin, according to state senator Glen Grothman: Not only is the no disparity in pay between genders, if there was, it wouldn't matter because "you could argue that money is more important for a man."

This [link] Jesse.

At jury duty today, which so far means lots of time for Internet browsing. Whee!

Thanks!

Cashmere, I'm not going to follow that link, because if my head esplodifies I won't be able to work. How did that guy get elected in Wisconsin, anyway?

A cool essay: I’m Christian, unless you’re gay.

An even cooler response (in which a gay teen comes out to his homophobic mother): A Teen’s Brave Response to “I’m Christian, Unless You’re Gay”

This is the most ludicrous thing I've seen linked to Easter (and to car repair) so far this year. Lord have mercy.

Look at this fucking hipster 18th century trephination set: [link]

Trephines are the surgical devices used for trephination, or trepanning. The basic practices and tools have remained largely unchanged for centuries. Among the trephines themselves, with their cylindrical blades, are a large brace to hold the trephines during drilling, two rugines to remove connective tissue from bones, two lenticulars to depress brain material during surgery and a brush to remove fine fragments of bone. The styling of the instruments and their box reflects a long tradition of producing surgical and scientific instruments as finely crafted, gentlemanly possessions.
