Feeling ellection gloom on this beautiful Friday.

Summer ends tomorrow, and with it go the summer jams.

My daughter is wise.

Sometimes the climate change news is too much to bear and I have to take deep breaths and eat a lot of ice cream and go for a long run and try not to furrow my brow so much that I turn into a giant raisin.

Sometimes I can't even read climate change stories for fear of falling down into the dark pit of environmental gloom that I call The Mean Greens. But I just listened to tonight's episode of Ideas with Tim Flannery, and although it made my heart constrict in parts, it also made me hope. And doodle.

Unless you’re born with outsize character and unfathomable beauty, you spend at least 67% of your adolescence fretting about what you look like. You spend the rest of the time eating Doritos and ogling teen pop stars with remarkably good skin. If you’re of normal constitution, you cry a lot. Covering your jeans in safety pins tells the world you’re a badass. And who would deny a growing creature that small protection against the cruelties of life?

from A Bunch of Pretty Things I Did Not Buy (eBook) by Sarah Lazarovic 

It can be hard to be a mindful consumer, and resist the buying impulse. Sarah Lazarovic tackles the challenge by spending a year drawing the things she did not buy. Her graphic memoir of this experience is one of our Top 10 Reads for this summer! Find out more about the book and read our interview with the author.
