>> One person’s experience of finding a kidney donor. “The obvious place to find a donor is your own family, but that was not really an option for me. My parents were not alive and would have been far too old to help me even if they were. I have no siblings and only three cousins; I hadn’t seen two of them since high school; and the third I see maybe once every two or three years.” (via freakonomics)

>> A shrinking group of actual readers. Will reading become “an increasingly arcane hobby”? “No effort of will is likely to make reading popular again. Children may be browbeaten, but adults resist interference with their pleasures.”

>> Most controversial advertisements in fashion history. (via kottke)
