Hail! This sign was spotted on the window of The Albion Beatnik shop in Oxford, England. It’s based on the original text by Beatrice Warde, This Is A Printing Office.
Got this from the flickr pool of the US National Archives. This was created by the US Information Agency in 1953. Sixty years hence and the message is still so (shamefully) relevant. Our heroes must be restless in their graves.

Indeed, time travel could suck, but I won’t hesitate to go back in time if I could. I’d like to experience once more, or see, the time when my mother was younger and healthier (happier, perhaps) and take a picture of one very beautiful moment and preserve it for eternity. I could think of a thousand other things that I’d want to relive again. I would love to travel through time. Not so much to the future, but to be back? Yeah, anytime.
A compilation of diary entries of cats reflecting on their miserable existence. Sorry cats; with Ze Frank narrating, you only produce hilarity, but I suppose you’re not really eliciting sympathy from “the authorities.”
A compelling and explosive anti-suicide film in which a man fights his inner demon. It’s inspired by the death through suicide of Tanya, Eric Lim’s sister. Eric is the star in this film; he is also an aspiring movie producer.
From the writer and director Stephen Reedy:
You see… our friend’s sister, Tanya Lim, killed herself, leaving behind her savings to her brother and aspiring movie producer Eric. Eric felt the only appropriate use of this tragic gift was to make something both in her honor and to prevent others from falling into the dark place she fell victim to. To shed a ray of strength on people affected by depression.
This gave me chills. I have friends who had been on the verge, but I lacked the emotional capacity to deal with their circumstance. I’m thankful there are people who could help. Thank you for this.
When there’s badness all around, it’s easy to think that humanity’s headed for its final doom. But then, you see a compilation of heartwarming videos of people taking some time to help others, your faith in humanity is once again restored. In case you’re feeling depressed about the not-so-nice things happening around you, or you’re planning to nuke the planet, you need to watch this.

Sometimes, it’s really just paranoia. Don’t allow your fears to rule your life.
