Here's a sampling of what I got into this past weekend, after a wonderful but intense-for-my-introvert-self week:
- This reddit post will remind you of all of the songs you forgot you know.
- This YouTube video is from a 1000-person cover of "Learn to Fly" by the foo Fighters. Its one of the happiest videos I've seen in a while.
Here are other videos from the same event - the quality live was really something, though I'm sure the official track was heavily mastered:
- Everyone:
- Singers:
- Drummers

In the category of things that are unfortunate:
- Hitchbot, a hitch-hiking robot that was peacefully traveling the world, was destroyed
- This opinion piece gets into some of the difficult demographics that my generation is confronting:
We can’t completely undo the financial obstacles younger Americans face, such as their weak earnings. But we can start to put in place policies that will ease their burden. First and foremost would be to get the nation’s economy onto a stronger growth trajectory. That’s a daunting challenge that would require revamping federal outlays to emphasize areas like education, infrastructure and research and development. Spending more on these areas would require higher taxes on my generation, which is getting a lot more from government than we are paying into it.
