I’ve got a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other. The devil side is Gawker. Those damned Gawker articles. They are compelling, but they are almost always about the worst things that happen.  Gawker: Always compelling, rarely uplifting.

If you’re not following Dangerous Minds, you really, really should. This alone should be enough of a reason to do so.
