Larson tackles nature. The story an indignant worm father tells his ingrate worm son about: (1) his dinner, (2) a (maybe) human-beautiful fleshy pink female idiot.

Wait for the rhythm change for the real magic.

This is the best book. If you do not think so by the time you can read, find me, you're doing it wrong. For now, to your reader:

Rootabaga Country is in the Heartland, so don't be afraid to drawl. Many of the lady voices bend like feathers in the wind. Many of the men are rusty and orange like old tractors, and all of the children are as plucky and upright as young cornstalks must be I imagine.

Abandoned furniture is usually pretty moving, but what's remarkable is some of these have quietly happy endings.

For those who like lint on their concrete.

Animation that tickles your ability to recognize and classify things with the relentlessness of a medieval torture device. The result is minorly transcendent, especially the last movement, so hang in there.

The music's good, too.

Some of the best popular science to come out of the 1970s I imagine. If you saw it somewhere as a kid, it might taste a little on the spooky side.

Google photographed everything, it was bound to catch a few interesting shots. Hobson fished out a few, and nudged their contours. A human perspective on a machine's on human impressions on the world.

Joy in four parts, from a German friend. What Anne Carson is to prose, these dancers are to acting.

I cannot even begin to express how happy I am that this is a dance fad.

Erato covers Robyn with empty yogurt containers. Impressive feat of coordination, and the song's pretty interesting, as verse.

It also happens to be the musical equivalent of a cup of hot chocolate with miniature marshmallows, and maybe a finger of peppermint schnapps.
