We’re coconuts over Coconut Records!

Could we love Jason Schwartzman more? Not possible. His new Coconut Records album, “Davy” is out now and yes, we’re already obsessed. Get yer taste by streaming the entire album here. Let me say this my friends, Coconut Records is the perfect soundtrack to this new day of post-haste, Obama administration style.

Bad Santa

Photographer extraordinaire Sarah Yates has put together a great collection of disappointed munchkins. This makes me laugh in the same vein of seeing parents yell at their kids in public. Oh the joys of awkwardness. Is Curb Your Enthusiasm back on yet?

All the wrong people have self-esteem

Laurie Rosenwald’s new book is a clever piece of goodness. “All the wrong people have self-esteem. An innappropriate book for young ladies or, frankly, anybody else.” If you’ve ever felt you don’t deserve bottled water, this book is for you. If you’re a vegetarian but eat meat, this book is for you. Let’s face it, chances are, if you’re reading this, then this book is for you.

Hacer – to make or create or drink lots of cerveza

It’s been an incredible week and the hits keep a comin’. Tomorrow night, we’ll be cruising out to Hacer, an event centered around creativity and community. It’s a joint venture between our pals at Sezio and Jedidiah Clothing. The loft space is a must-see and Zack assures me mucho tacos, pinatas, cervezas and live screen printing. Best of all, it’s a benefit for Gabriel House.

Bring your own bike lane

Start cruisin’ with your own bike lane. Love this idea but not sure it’ll make it out of concept mode, what with the lasers and all. [via Gadget Lab]
