1. OCCUPY: The internet works its collective magic once again with the pepper spray meme. Watch the California cop nonchalantly spray his way through famous works of art in this Wired gallery.
2. SIGH: One of these things is not like the other. Time Magazine has different covers by region. Apparently Americans are VERY concerned with anxiety.
3. TELEVISION: Emily Nussbaum is now writing for The New Yorker, and this essay on 2 Broke Girls and Whitney is evidence that they chose well.
4. AWWW: Australian ad for marriage equality featuring hunky Australian men. You will tear up, and that’s a promise.
5. RACE: Jay Smooth from Ill Doctrine conducts a Ted Talk about conversations about race. Maybe we’ve all been approaching it a little bit wrong.
6. CONNECT: Forget 6 degrees of separation, science now suggests we average only 4.74 degrees from any Facebook using stranger. Yes, that qualifier is a little irritating, but the NYT piece is still worth a read.
