Getting ghosted by skaters is a subculture in itself — there’s a whole poetry account dedicated to it.
They’ll make eye contact with you at a party without actually approaching you, and then DM you three seconds after you leave with “Hey, saw you around.” They’ll invite you over to “just hang” but you’ll just end up watching their skate compilation videos before an underwhelming hook up. They’ll offer you a hit of their Juul before you go home, and then only text you back after they see your Instagram Story days later. They’ll probably brush off the casual ghosting with a “Sorry, I’m bad at texting,” and then ghost you again once you strike up a conversation — only to hit you up several weeks later and ask if you want to come over after their friend’s DIY show.

As the daughter and granddaughter of two artists who are very persnickety about what constitutes as “real art,” I’m reluctant to reveal my love of paint-by-number kits.
Specifically, watching the completion of paint-by-number kits on YouTube. (I suspect talks of extraditing me from the family is now underway.)
Paint-by-number kits are a bygone pastime that first emerged in 1953, invented by Craft Masters to enrapture mid-century craft enthusiasts. While the popularity of these kits have waxed and waned over the years, it appears that it is in the midst of another resurgence — and it’s all being documented on YouTube. Read more…

Space is vast — infinite, even — and mysterious and mesmerizing. And guess what? It’s never been easier to bring all of the amazing things about space right to your phone.
This may seem a bit counterintuitive. After all, space is never-ending, and your phone is, comparatively speaking, quite small. But current phone screens are like mini-HD TVs, and the breadth of WiFi and signal coverage means you can enjoy space from your phone almost anywhere.

Poorly Drawn Cats is a Twitter account dedicated to, as the name suggests, poorly drawn cats. But calling these charming little pictures “poorly drawn” doesn’t seem like a fair description considering how beloved they’ve become by the account’s many followers.
The crude, contour-line drawings created by a Brazilian artist named Heloísa, who started the account in 2016, capture the distinct personalities of cats — not always an easy task. The drawings featured on the account are of cats featured in photos submitted by fans of the account. Read more…
