Feeling joyful, let me grab my headscarf!
My mom may not have saved any (now vintage) clothes for her three daughters…but she held onto the comics she read as a little girl. I’m pretty familiar with Millie’s Many Moods(!).

monders said: did your old candy bf find you again?
In the middle of stuffing myself with all the treats I’ve received today, Mondee reminded me about my forgotten “candy boyfriend” from my days at XM. As in, the man who refilled the snack machines every week and would leave piles of presents on my desk when I wasn’t looking (am I that obvious?).
Honestly, is that not the most romantic thing you’ve ever heard? Even sweeter, he started to figure out what I liked (Peanut Butter Cups, Swedish fish) and disliked (anything with black licorice) and would cherry-pick only the best for me.
*Swoon*
Renovated fountain at the short hills mall. Childhood memories of trying to throw a penny into the top. #shorthillsmall
glad to see the fountain back on-line….
Thank god they didn’t try to get rid of it all together.
One day my penny will make it in…

From Nwk’s terrific gallery of vintage photos John Foster has collected from garage sales.
“When I look for images, I look for something that makes you almost uncomfortable in your own skin—something that makes you observe more intently,” Foster says. “That’s when I know I have something that’s more than just a snapshot.”
This shot, which looks straight out of a horror film, definitely qualifies.

Wait a minute, that’s not the right way to do the Bunny Dip.
One of the vintage postcards I picked up from an antiques shop in Austin this past weekend. The back of this one from 1947 reads:
Hello Pal
Don’t know if you care for this kind of card or not. They just got them in.
Having nice summer weather here, but need rain badly as it is hard on the fruit trees.
Best wishes,

Hello Pal.
Today in Updates:
Very happy to announce that I work here now (trust me, this was a tough one to keep to myself for the past few weeks). I’m beyond thrilled to join the Tumblr team as their resident Communications girl. Drop me a line and say hello!
It’s amazing how much six years feels like just yesterday and a lifetime ago, simultaneously.
In 2011, we were a whopping 25 people (which, coincidentally is the median age of both David and I at that time); an entire company that could fit (sort of) comfortably into one small conference room, count ¾ of its female employees on six feet, and offsite together in one house.
Now, we’re hundreds of people across multiple offices, about to go through an acquisition (again!) and I’m certainly no longer 26. So, while I wouldn’t change the last six years for anything, I know in my heart that it’s time for me to move on to the next adventure.
It’s impossible to sum up six plus years in one sappy tumblr post, so here are some of the greatest hits:
Thank you, Tumblr, for an incredible six years. It’s been a dream.
(One last time) Fuck Yeah!

I don’t think I have anything to add that would be 1/1,000,000th as impactful as the stories women have been sharing this week. But please count me as one man standing with you in this fight.
Today I made a $1 million donation to Planned Parenthood. I urge more men to speak up and contribute. Women don’t get pregnant alone, and we owe them much more than our silent support in the political fight ahead.
If you can, please donate here. Either way, you can take action across the country, online or in person.
