No matter how fine, noble, and gifted one may be, he cannot command respect or be appreciated by others if he has not succeeded in realizing his talents and communicating his message to society through the medium of the creative majestic gesture.

I’m very excited to announce that we’ve officially launched Sherpaa.
Who it’s for: Currently it’s for tumblr’s employees. In the near future, we’ll be signing up other NYC-based companies.
Why: When you’re sick or hurt, figuring out exactly who and what you need and when you need it is difficult. You need an accessible, friendly doctor you can call and email 24/7 who will either solve the problem right then and there or guide you to the highest quality, health professionals with the best personalities who will provide exactly the care you need.

The buzzword now is authenticity—If anything, turning ourselves into miniature entrepreneurs only allows commercial values to infiltrate spaces that were previously free of them. All of a sudden, people I thought were my friends are trying to sell me shit.
William Deresiewicz continues his three-pronged attack on the Millennial ethos. This week, entrepreneurship. Read @FranzKafka. (via theamericanscholar)

Spotted on the Upper West Side—looks like the HBO adaptation of The Corrections has started filming.

Can’t we fast-forward a year or two and watch the first season on DVD in one long weekend viewing binge?
