Friday Links

1. The most nostalgic combination of words possible: 1991 California Raisins commercial for the library (via Austin Kleon).

2. I need to print this out so I can remember what’s actually helpful for people going through something (don’t put the burden on them! I speak from experience but I still forget!): A poster titled "9 things to say instead of 'Let me know what you need' " The 9 things are: 1. "I'm running errands later - can I grab you something?" 2. "I made extra food. Can I drop some off tomorrow?" 3. "Want company? Or just someone to sit with?" 4. "Can I take specific things off your plate this week?" 5. "No pressure to reply — I'm just thinking of you." 6. "I'm free this weekend if you want quiet company or help getting stuff done. 7. "I know calls can be draining want me to text instead?" 8. "I'm grabbing coffee later. Can I drop one at your door?" 9. "You don't have to say anything. I'm not going anywhere."

 

3. I’m probably painting the hallway this weekend but what if I took a boat ride in a laundry basket instead? And I were a goose?
