My Stellar faves
Lately, I’ve been spending more time on my Stellar and Twitter accounts than on Tumblr. Both services offer more frictionless content consumption than Tumblr, and I don’t have too much time these days to write anything insightful anyway.
Now if Stellar adds support for Tumblr likes, it would truly be a good overview of my favorite things from around the Internet.

An Open Letter to All the Politicians Talking About Whether or Not Supreme Court Nominee Elena Kagan Is a Lesbian
And frankly, President Obama, I’m looking at you, too. I’m hoping that you’re a brilliant strategist, and that nominating a liberal lesbian to the Supreme Court is part of your master plan to get gays equal rights in the long run. Just like I’m trusting that Damon Lindelof and Cartlon Cuse will answer all eleven trillion unanswered question in the LOST finale. But if you don’t do anything, Mr. President—if you don’t repeal DADT or DOMA while in office—I swear to god, I am never going to have an explicit sex dream about you and your wife again. Because I can only be so patient.
The kind of rant that can only be found on a tumblelog. So good.

Fuck Yeah! Hipster Kitty!
Hipster Kitty watched American Idol before America existed.
I liked Hipster Kitty before Tumblr existed. Then I lol’d when I realized I was listening to MPP while posting this.
EMs and IFRAMEs
Those funky IE-only
<iframe>attributes we were injecting in themes have been adjusted to be 100% valid XHTML. Same for the Submit, Ask, and Answer forms.We also switched the Rich Text Editor to use
<em>and<strong>tags instead of<i>s and<b>s.
OMFG THIS. I’ve been using the plain text/HTML editor solely because of the rich text editor’s insistence on using the semantically-ignorant <i> and <b>.
DREAMS DO COME TRUE.
HEY, NEW FOLLOWERS! xhotin, all-that-glitters-is-gold :) Thanks so much for following!
I just watched this episode again yesterday! Chuck’s father was such a great antagonist.
Also, I think it’s adorable how the Pushing Daisies tumblelog is named Heck Yeah Pushing Daisies.

Tumblr Reblogs Graph
A deceptively simple bookmarklet by Michele that helps you visualize reblog trees on Tumblr posts.
It works best on posts with between ten and a hundred reblogs—fewer and it’s not very interesting; more and it’s just a mess. Clicking on a tumblelog name in the graph re-centers it to your selected tumblelog.
Really, really impressive.
