I linked to Atlas Minor a few weeks ago, and I’m linking it again, because it’s oddly reassuring to see someone else in the same headspace. 

In the middle of summer, it may be refreshing (in a weird sort of way) to experience Antarctic expeditions and see how they dealt with the elements. 

In the middle of summer, however, you can sponsor a beehive at Green-Wood Cemetery. I love that the honey is called “The Sweet Hereafter.” 

And for something completely different: IKEA instructions for creating various horror characters, with bonus Han Solo in carbonite.
