• New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art releases 375,000 digital works for remix and re-use online via Creative Commons
• Sex and Gender in the Victorian Era This is a good thing to remember: people in the past were just as complicated and confusing as people are now.
• The ‘untranslatable’ emotions you never knew you had
• What communicating only in emoji taught me about language in the digital age
• The Joy (And Fear) Of Making ‘Kindred’ Into A Graphic Novel
• The best obituary about a lungfish you’ll ever read.
• Ursula K. LeGuin turning down the opportunity to blurb an anthology: “Gentlemen, I just don’t belong here.”
• Why does the United States still let 12-year-olds get married? This is a really good question. (content warning: child rape is one of the topics covered.)
• I Was a Twelve Year Old Priestess in the Occult, or so I Was Made to Believe (content warning: child abuse)
• Ann Leckie on tea. Mmmm, tea.
• Usonia the Beautiful The thing I found most interesting about this was the land ownership scheme: it’s essentially Georgist, but it’s not clear that they knew it was Georgist.

This is so real it hurts:

“I have accidentally watered virtually every person and object in Pelican Town.”
