Same-sex marriage is an abomination before God, but breast implants are perfectly acceptable, and boost a girl's confidence, as well (provided they're free?).
Happy birthday to my favourite rabble-rouser, fellow Canadian Naomi Klein. I recently finished The Shock Doctrine, and it shouldn't have held any (or very many) surprises, but, not infrequently, it made me ill. It was epiphanic. Read it if you haven't already (and No Logo, too - and I know, it links to Amazon in the UK, but I really liked Penguin's cover).
Another fabulous find courtesy of Boing Boing, Strange Maps collects fascinating, bizarre, and simply beautiful maps of all kinds (generally less conventionally mappy, though). These are two recent maps that caught my eye (books and beers, baby).
I don't really know much about Lisa Hannigan (she's Irish, she writes lovely songs), but this video is almost inexpressibly moving. And who made those pop-up books? I want one for my (future) children (Thank you, Fabulist!).
