Overprocessed Detroit is pretty, minus 51 parks and all.

Here’s a few good reads from the week.

> Crazy portraits of people being blown by a leaf blower. If you look at nothing else on this list, don’t miss this one.

> While working on Sustainable Sass, I asked Sarah what kind of plugin or layout I needed in order to have a custom menu. She gave me the rundown (way easier than I thought, yet I would have never figured it out) and even wrote up a tutorial on her blog. She also made a few new premade templates that I love. Kind of want me some rainbow sorbet.

> 5 ways you’re accidentally making everyone hate you. Definitely guilty on some of these. I have become quit introverted and I think a lot of people take my lack of enthusiasm or response to what they are saying as snobby and dismissive. On the other hand, I also worry that people hate me when they are non-enthusiastic or responsive.

> The way I am around you. Yes.

> Death of foodstagram? Apparently, some restaurants have begun banning customers from taking photos of food. I do think it is inappropriate to make a scene and have flash emanating from your table, but I don’t see anything wrong with discreetly taking a snapshot of your food for Instagram, as corny as it may be. Free promotion, who gives a shit?

> Basic camera, brilliant pictures.

> I refuse to wear heels. I can relate quite a bit to this. I used to wear heels everyday to work when I was in an office. I’d wear them out, even to school sometimes if I was going somewhere after, because I loved them and my walking skills were top notch. Once I began working from home and went a few months without wearing them regularly, I was like OH HELL NO and invested in some nice flats. I still do wedges when I want some height, though.
