I’m throwing an Arrested Development viewing party. The menu will include frozen bananas, corn balls and the Lucille special: vodka on the rocks with a piece of toast. You’re all invited.

And Public Policy Polling polled American voters’ attitudes towards hipsters and found some surprising (and bizarre) info:
- 10% of Americans consider themselves hipsters (15% Democrat, 10% Republican, 3% Independents)
- 50% of voters 18–29 consider themselves hipsters
- 27% of Americans think hipsters should be subject to a special tax
- 33% of Hispanics consider themselves hipsters, versus 6% of whites and 10% of African Americans
- 54% or Hispanics think hipsters make a positive contribution to society, versus 21% of white votes and 13% of African-American voters
- 17% of people in the Northeast identify as hipsters, versus 4% in the Midwest, 9% in the South, and 7% in the West (though there’s a high percentage of people in the South and West who aren’t sure how they identify)

Texas Photographer, Recreates Iconic Women’s Portraits With Her Daughter
By: Ryan Grenoble
When Jaime Moore’s daughter, Emma, turned 5, the Texas mom and photographerset out to commemorate the occasion in pictures. Searching for inspiration online, however, she was dismayed to find the majority of girls at that age dressed up, unrealistically, as fairy-tale princesses. So Jaime decided to raise the bar.
Mom searched for better role models, and together with Emma selected five real women that a girl can actually aspire to be like. Then, they replicated iconic portraits of those figures — Susan B. Anthony, Coco Chanel, Amelia Earhart, Helen Keller and Jane Goodall.
The title of the series, “NOT just a girl,” is meant to be an inspirational message for young women seeking to realize their full potential — beyond vague dreams of Disney princesses.

Hitler’s food tester opens up about screening meals in the ‘Wolf’s Lair’ after 68 years of secrecy
They were feasts of sublime asparagus — laced with fear. And for more than half a century, Margot Woelk kept her secret hidden from the world, even from her husband. Then, a few months after her 95th birthday, she revealed the truth about her wartime role: Adolf Hitler’s food taster.
Woelk, then in her mid-twenties, spent two and a half years as one of 15 young women who sampled Hitler’s food to make sure it wasn’t poisoned before it was served to the Nazi leader in his “Wolf’s Lair,” the heavily guarded command center in what is now Poland, where he spent much of his time in the final years of World War II.
“He was a vegetarian. He never ate any meat during the entire time I was there,” Woelk said of the Nazi leader. “And Hitler was so paranoid that the British would poison him — that’s why he had 15 girls taste the food before he ate it himself.” (AP Photo/Markus Schreiber; AP Photo/US Army Signal Corps from Eva Braun’s album)This is crazy and fascinating
