I quit my job to start this blog. You're welcome, interweb.
Just when you thought that Pomplamoose couldn’t get any better, they go and do this and totally rock out on a whole new level. Holy shit.
Holy moly, this is amazing. Day = made.
P.S.: You can download their cover for free on their website. Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
Beautiful, hmmm? By Elisabeth Lecourt, images from Flavorwire.
Guys. Sesame Street is celebrating its 40th anniversary, and you can go here and vote for your favorite video from the 1980s. Obviously, there’s only one way to vote, and that is for the video above. Other highlights that are great (but should not be voted for cause they’re not as great as Smokey) are:
Missing videos include:
And, no, you guys, I am not sitting at my computer overcome with Sesame Street nostalgia and near tears, but thanks for your concern … Ok, ok, I totally am sitting by my computer overcome with Sesame Street nostalgia and near tears, but this stuff is so good. I will make no apologies for my Sesame Street nostalgia and near-tears-ness and neither should you. Enjoy!

Um. This is genius and hilarious and exactly how I feel about almost every apple I’ve ever dated, ahem, picked up at the grocery store.
Apples these days [epic eye roll accompanied by exasperated groan] … amiright?
Let The River Run, Carly Simon with Ben Taylor
More from the Daytrotter Sessions … I couldn’t choose a favorite, so please listen to this one, too, if you’re so inclined. Don’t worry, I won’t post the other two, but y’all know where to download them, right? Right.
You’re So Vain, Carly Simon with Ben Taylor
You guys: Carly Simon on Daytrotter, with Ben Taylor (that’s right—Ben Taylor, as in her son with James). I’m sorry if you did not grow up in my household (and I realize that many of you did not), and if this is therefore a not big deal, but I am super psyched and I’m sure my mom is, too. Free tracks here.
There are many things I love about this photo of Marc Jacobs styled by François Nars, but none as much as the tattooed portrait of Jacobs as a “Simpsons” character.
I saw this photo when she blogged it and from that point forward have hardly been able to stop thinking about it. He is without flaw.
Several years ago, when I was much younger and way more foolish, I stole a glowing lavender pumpkin from Max Fish and took it to Katz’s Deli for soup and then home to my apartment. It is the only thing that I have ever stolen and, of course, being the amateur thief that I was (am), I told my mom about my new acquisition, and she was motherly and shocked and disappointed and now at Halloween sends me that lavender pumpkin in the mail and I call to thank her and she gives me a lecture about stealing and we laugh and I just got the pumpkin in the mail today and here it is. But, guys, don’t steal—the yamas and commandments and everything else say not to—and definitely don’t steal and then tell your mom cause she’ll never let it go.
Side note: My mom is the best and therefore send these rocking goblets which, as you can see, totally blend right in with my decor. When I thanked her for them, she noted that Chris and Will’s goblets have nothing on mine. I think that she is right, especially since they are bigger and can thusly accommodate more beverage. Game on, boys.
Poker Face (Lady Gaga cover) / Mika
If it isn’t rough
It isn’t funI think Mika just may be my ideal man.
(via deliberatepace)
I’d like to think that when Garrett posted this he thought, ‘What will bring Lindsay back to the blogosphere? Ah, yes, a Lady Gaga cover.’ Good move, my dear, good move.
Roslyn, Bon Iver and St Vincent
Oh. My. Swoon.
