Long Reads from the C train. Some good ones here.

People I’d Like to Hang Out With

The Legend of Chris Kyle, by Michael J. Mooney — Profile of the deadliest sniper in U.S. history. Incredible story that I might have missed.
Roger Ebert: The Essential Man by Chris Jones— If you haven’t you should.
Kim Gordon Sounds Off, by Lizzy Goodman— “There is nothing desperate about Kim Gordon.”
Is Giving the Secret to Getting Ahead? by Susan Dominus— Adam Grant is really good at life.
In Conversation With Mike Brodie, by Barbara Davidson— Guy born in 1985 takes a few years off to travel around America with a camera, now just wants to be a train engineer. The Youngs still do things that aren’t blogging!

Other

Travels in the New Psychedelic Bazaar, by Vanessa Grigoriadis— Boys on the Internet are playing with new synthetic drugs.
FanBased: Inside Lil B’s Ecstatic Cult, by Carrie Battan— I don’t listen to or get Lil B, and now I know why? I don’t know, his fans are weird and fiercely loyal and it’s interesting.
What if the Tsarnaevs Had Been the “Boston Shooters”? by John Cassidy— I thought about this in the aftermath. What is it about bombs that make a terrorist, whereas people who use guns to shoot innocent people are just “lone” and “deranged”?
Allen Iverson, NBA Icon, Struggles With Life After Basketball by Kent Babb— Mo money, mo problems/gradually then suddenly.
The King of Oontz Oontz Oontz by Jessica Pressler— A fun, short profile of “world’s hottest DJ” Avicii. I like imagining the pitch for this.
Weird Twitter: The Oral History, by John Herrman and Katie Notopoulos— My feelings on “weird Twitter” are mixed, but here’s an oral history.
“Hey Foxy!” Inside the Oil Boom’s Amazing Bachelor Boom, by Maya Rao— As one learns in college, things get weird when there’s a lot of men around.

Boston

Another tough, emotional day, not without a few frustrated walks around the office and zoned-out stares. But also a reminder of what a privilege it is to work in a newsroom and help readers find whatever answers we can provide, when we can provide them, however incomplete.

life:

Yogi Berra takes issue with the umpire’s “safe” call after Robinson’s electrifying steal of home in Game 1 of the 1955 World Series. Six decades after it was taken, this picture reminds us of what an intense competitor Berra, like Robinson, really was. Today, he’s often regarded a cuddly old ambassador for baseball. But back then, when the game was on the line, Yogi Berra was a warrior.

“It’s from a commencement speech by David Foster Wallace.”

Come back to me, I had something for this.

Mon, 25 Mar 2013 20:34:15 -0400

sterlingarcherdraperpryce:

Oh, hello there, Sterling Archer Draper Prycer! I know what you’re here for; you came here for hilarity, and indeed, you’ve been most patient. Alas, “Karen,” (alias legally required), the funny lady who authors this tumblr, was the victim of a horrific kidnapping, robbery and rape last month. I know, I know, it’s a bummer: http://www.wdsu.com/news/local-news/new-orleans/3-accused-in-Garden-District-rape-plead-not-guilty-Wednesday/-/9853400/19204428/-/dtm423z/-/index.html

But as always when shit gets traumatic, good people step up. This has happened in these two demonstrable ways:

1. Friends have started a fundraiser for her recovery and aftermath costs that’s doing pretty well by initial standards, but actually needs more to allow her just to break even. (Did you know that being forcibly raped by strangers is super expensive? Neither did we! HIV/STD prophylaxis, medical co-pays for 1 millionish appointments, relocation costs when your home becomes a crime scene, etc; and on top of everything, it turns out Stabler and Benson are fictional, and thus of no use). If you want to kick a few bucks her way so that she doesn’t become a cautionary tale about how getting raped = debt, that would rock: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/support-nola-s-most-badass-assault-survivor

2. Here’s an exclusive picture of Pam the Archer crew drew just for her. The note with it said, “The thought behind the picture was to keep fighting as she recovers. To not let anything stop her. That’s how I feel about Pam. Whatever terrible things happen to her, she gets back up eventually, stronger than ever.” It rocked our freaking world, and we hope it rocks yours too. Special props to Amber Nash, voice of Pam, who sent a “holy shitsnacks!” short to “Karen” to show her support for her blog and her triumph over some serious shit[snacks].

Despite all this, “Karen” will be churning out new content imminently and giving you better mashups than ever. In the meantime, if you are inclined to toss some love her way via comment or fundraiser contribution, please step forward for the good karma you so richly deserve. That link again is: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/support-nola-s-most-badass-assault-survivor

And that’s all you’ll hear about that or anything non-SAPD-related; this tumblr is here for your mashup amusement, and we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming shortly — and permanently. Life goes on. Thanks for reading.

<3 SAPD
