B.J.S. Cahill (Bernard Joseph Stanislaus Cahill, 1866-1944), cartographer and architect, was the inventor of the octahedral “Butterfly Map” (published 1909; patented 1913) His Butterfly World Map, like Buckminster Fuller’s later Dymaxion Map of 1943 and 1954, enabled all continents to be uninterrupted, and with reasonable fidelity to a globe.

“Spread and participate in culture. Remix, reuse, use, abuse. Make sure no one controls your mind. Create new systems and technology that circumvent the corruption. Start a religion. Start your own nation, or buy one. Buy a bus. Crush it to pieces.“
— Peter Sunde (via kevintwohy)

“Perhaps 50% of our friends and relatives would tell you in all honest conviction that my drinking drove Zelda insane — the other half would assure you that her insanity drove me to drink. Neither judgement would mean anything… these two classes (of friends and relatives) would be equally unanimous in saying that each of us would be well rid of the other — in full face of the irony that we have never been so desperately in love with each other in our lives. Liquor on my breath is sweet to her. I cherish her most extravagant hallucinations.“

- F. Scott Fitzgerald in a letter to Zelda’s Dr.

I think I’ve posted this before.  I love this quote, and seems appropriate today if you have found your other half.

“The Dutch are bicycle fanatics. Almost half of daily travel in the Netherlands is by bicycle, while the country’s bike fleet comfortably outnumbers  its 16 million people. Devotees of the national obsession have taken  the next logical step by launching what is likely the first bicycle  school bus.”

I’m fairly certain this photo was taken in Nijmegen, where I used to live…makes me miss the Netherlands.
