I love The Billfold, which is answering the question “Logan, Where Have You Been?”:
Mike: You really needed to earn more money. That was the whole point of getting this other job. It was kind of crazy that you were working a full-time restaurant job and blogging on the side and still struggling to make ends meet. It was unsustainable, plus not very remunerative.
Logan: Yeah, we’ve never talked about how much money we’ve made with the site, but it isn’t enough for two people to work full-time. Maybe it will be one day, but I needed to be making a lot more money now. Maybe there was a way I could have made it work—a more lucrative second job, I’m not sure. But by the new year, I’d decided I needed to step back and find a full-time job.

I think that a huge problem is people who read comics and don’t understand the point of superheroes, which is to be the best version of yourself. You love Captain America? Well, you know what Captain America would never do? Go online anonymously and shit on a girl for having an opinion.
What people really order at Chipotle. Note: Mallory has feelings about this.

Our own Gretchen (not Weiners) on why “fetch” never happened.
Just a nice piece about how important science fiction is:
Brueckner laments that researchers whose work deals with emerging technologies are often unfamiliar with science fiction. “With the development of new biotech and genetic engineering, you see authors like Margaret Atwood writing about dystopian worlds centered on those technologies,” she says. “Authors have explored these exact topics in incredible depth for decades, and I feel reading their writing can be just as important as reading research papers.”
