JAYNE’S RECOMMENDED LINKS
1. Reductress: Women’s News. Feminized.
The only website of its kind that makes successful, hilarious, and culturally significant satire out of the news, features, and general frivolity often found within the pages of women’s lifestyle magazines. Brilliant.
2. The Riveter: Riveting Storytelling by Women
Focusing on long-form journalism and personal narratives by women, for EVERYONE, The Riveter is truly changing the face of the predominantly male journalism industry. Huzzah!
3. Th-Ink.co.uk: The Official Blog for Things & Ink
Things & Ink is the only magazine I know of that’s dedicated to female tattoo culture: meaning no random centerfolds of half-naked tattooed chicks which seem to explicitly shout, “Hey, uh, we’re kind of a dude’s magazine. Sorry.” The blog is the heart of Editor-in-Chief, Alice Snape’s vision and is absolutely brimming with articles of interests to tattoo aficionados, collectors (such as myself), and the simply curious.
TATIANA’S RECOMMENDED LINKS
1. 10 Movies This Child of the ’80s Wants Her Kids to Learn From
This is a list of the 10 movies that one “child of the 80s” wants her kid to see. While I might fall under “babies of the 80s” (new band name!), I think this is a great list not just of classic, feel-good 80s movies, but one that really does have some great lessons that I wish I’d learned as an angsty teen. And, it’s kind of the perfect list of kicking off an 80s Movie Marathon with your best boo.
2. Countries of the World Quiz
This is a fun, timed geography quiz and it’s a great way for you to be reminded of how ignorant you really are. Yay!
3. 13 Kickass Literary Power Couples
A list of awesome literary couples! Yay! Ok, so Jayne and I may not be a couple in the romantic sense of the word, but I like to think we’ll someday join this lot of badasses.
Till next time on the Week in Review,
Party on, dudes!
