Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and But— Gentlemen Marry Brunettes by Anita Loos

#these were so funny!#I loved them!#the illustrations by Ralph Barton are amazing too!#getting a cartoonist to illustrate these books was a perfect choice #I highly recommend these books #I will warn that there is racism like in pretty much all stuff from the 20’s but there was a lot less than I was expecting #gentlemen prefer blondes #but gentlemen marry brunettes #anita loos #ralph barton

What are you reading rn, why are you reading it, and what format are you reading it in (physical book, ereader, on your phone etc)

#I’m reading #But Gentlemen Marry Brunettes #because it’s the sequel to Gentleman Prefer Blondes which I really enjoyed #and I’m reading an ebook that is just photocopies of all the pages because nobodies made #a proper ebook yet even though it’s in the public domain

A daily game that challenges our understanding of human cultures. Ten objects. 5,000 years of human history. Guess where and when each artif

An interesting game where you are presented with 10 artifacts from the MET. You have to place where the artifact is from and what time period it is from. Each artifact scores up to 10,000 points, and you lose points the further away your guess is and how far off in time you are. You can only play once a day. Thanks to @baebeylik for showing this to me.

Today I scored really well. Yesterday ... not so much.
