Hello! I got my gift swap package today! Thank you MaryTylerGore! I mentioned I liked stuff from other states, and she delivered. MTG left a note in the package about Eskimo Joe’s, the source of the cups, spices, stickers, and postcard. I learned it is a local fixture with a global following, maybe like the Mystery…
Hey!! I’m not qualified for most of these, and I can’t move to NY or DC, but I thought some of you awesome folks might be interested. In particular, there’s the parenting writer—that one can be done from anywhere in the country (or outside of it, I guess?). I suppose anyone who applies for this must have a thick skin,…
Hello everyone! I had to get a new phone (the old one was probably crushed and plowed into a snowbank yesterday) and I think I want to root it—to get rid of the bloatwear and open up some space. However, the guides to rooting online aren't the clearest sets of instructions... is there anyone in Groupthink with…

Howdy! I'm planning an impromptu research trip, but I'm looking for a place for me and my boyfriend to stay. I thought maybe one of you might do the airbnb thing, or know someone who would rent us their extra room for about 3 nights. I have some cash, but not a lot. Comment, too, if you happen to know of a hostel…
I know this must seem like an odd question, but does anyone here maintain an active LJ page? I like the place—it's great for quieter moments that don't need to be broadcasted to the world. But it would be nice to know a few more people there. I started using it in 2006 at the behest of a friend who has since moved…
I know I'm late to the Draw Something party, but the game sparks one of those unanswerable questions about human nature that I wish I could just plug into Google: "Why do people just write the words?"
Anyone a fan of these guys? Also, what's the procedure for making an image annotate-able?
Hey everyone! I'm putting together a global history course (1500 to present) for next term, and I'd like to hear what kinds of things you'd like to know about if you had the opportunity! So, if you had the whole world post-1500 as your starting point, what places, people, ideas, events, changes, networks, border…
In a discussion with friends, this suggestion came up: "we need more voluntary peasants in the country." It was a suggestion meant to address the looming problems of climate change, wealth inequality, and poverty worldwide. I get the premise. If more people lowered their standard of living in this nation, there…
Here's my kitty Harry in return:
A jackalope!
Well, here's another creature drawing. I'm going to try tagging again, with a few different tags.
Testing out the ability to tag with #groupthink ... and posting some older drawings of mine.
