washingtonpoststyle: Stephen Colbert interviews Maurice Sendak. This is the greatest interview in the history of “The Colbert Report.” (Go to our actual tumblog if you have trouble watching on the dashboard.) This makes me unbearably happy.

those kids don't seem positive →
Amidst the din of people who think that the apocalypse/rapture came last night on the floor of the House of Representatives, the Hold Steady drop their latest single, a love song about troubled kids, as usual.  There’s something about this one, maybe it’s Craig’s new singing voice, maybe it’s the more positive lyrical outlook, maybe it’s more spectral than that, that...
