Trying to find the name of a particular bike shop on Google Maps just now, I stumbled across WYNC’s map of halted development projects. Whoa. Take a look. This is like being handing a photo project.

Two of my friends have exciting news today.

First, photographer, Brooklynite and all around good person Eliz Weinberg has been included in this years PDN 30. That’s amazing!

Second, heterosexual life partner and cartoonist Josh Kramer is included in not one but two comics anthologies, available here. Buy that shit. And Josh, send them to me for free for, um, review. Here’s Josh and me working out the details of my order.

What’s new with me? Only thatI haven’t been late to work all week. Tell that to your nearest HR representative. Oh, and they opened a Dunkin Donuts right next door. It’s the little things, folks.

I just saw Alec Soth’s Last Days of W for the first time. If you haven’t, you’d better go take a look. It’s my favorite flavor of photography.
