The Burley Boys from Jesse Brown on Vimeo.

I saw this video on BoingBoing last week (why yes, I do have a google alert set up for the term "feral children"). It answers the age-old question: what would happen if I turned off the television while my kids are zoned out in front of it? My favorite part comes right after the one kid yells, "KILL YOU!!!" It feels like sort of a contemporary homage to the Hubleys' Cockaboody, Moonbird, and Windy Day (but with 100 percent more Spongebob-inspired violence!).

I love it when readers send in art that they've created based on some post I've written (like here). We've been in Pittsburgh for my brother-in-law's wedding all week, and yesterday I found this sketch (she called it a "doodle") in my inbox from Samantha Wedelich at dwelldeep, meant to illustrate this post (although it seems fit to illustrate our entire past week, where this scene was repeated at rehearsal dinners, receptions, and family gatherings night after night). We're back in the routine of home now, and I am so grateful to have this.
