I highly recommend following Messy Nessy Chic. I always find something new and interesting in her posts, especially her weekly “13 Things I Found on the Internet Today” series. Her art, travel, and culture posts remind me a bit of Maria Popova’s popular blog BrainPickings, which is part book review, part documentation of Popova’s intellectual journey; in her words, it “is my one-woman labor of love — a subjective lens on what matters in the world and why. Mostly, it’s a record of my own becoming as a person — intellectually, creatively, spiritually — and an inquiry into how to live and what it means to lead a good life.” One of my favorite posts, which I had open in a browser tab for over a year, is E.B. White’s Beautiful Letter to a Man Who Had Lost Faith in Humanity.
And I present the bonus mohawk, made for and modeled by Moose, who loves to dress up and is still wearing it 45 minutes after our photoshoot ended.
Little Golden Notebook 
I have just checked them out – great recommendations. Moose is clearly born to model. I’d be tempted to call ?him/her Strawberry Moose for the day.

I will add Strawberry Moose to his list of nicknames, which include Moosie, Moo Moo, Moosecaboose, and McMoodle! 😀

Good. Clearly he didn’t have enough names already…

Never enough names! The more, the better – it’s my weird way of showing love. 😛

I do the same. No pet ever has just the one variation on their name. Makes me wonder how I ended up with just ‘Gill’:-)

My real name is Mandy, which isn’t short for anything (not Amanda, not Samantha). But my parents didn’t let that them; because I was the youngest & smallest, I got Midget, Midge, Smidget, Smidge, and (unrelated to everything except my teddy bear, Bear Brown) Talulah Brown. Maybe I should’ve used some of those instead of madgeface, a college-era nickname.

Thanks for the share – I am a big BrainPickings appreciator, and will check MN out. Strange – I once lived with a black lab named Moose(!). I found myself calling him “Moosio” after a while. Happy Friday.

Happy Friday to you too! I might end up adding Moosio to his list of names now too – the more nicknames, the better!
