    I designed and printed a poster about how much I missed Texas. Since there were a lot of homesick Texans stranded above the Mason-Dixon Line, I printed 49 more.

    These posters, like everything else in the gift shop, are pay-what-you-want.

    But can you really put a price on how much you yearn for a pound of crawfish and a can of Lone Star when all you can get up here are clams and Brooklyn beer?

    Yeah, I hope so. With shipping and handling, too.

    These particular posters are only on a limited run of 50, but if you’re looking for a poster that’s more Texas-neutral for those who live outside Houston and/or still live in Texas, it’s coming.

    Yeehaw.

    A lot of help went into getting these posters to where they are, not only physically in a box in my room, but also digitally on Pinterest where I’ll be looking for people to sue. Big thanks to Dave O’Connell (who wasn’t born in Texas but got there as fast as he could) who got these printed like a pro, because he is a pro, my roommates copyrapper and coffeebites who know exactly what I’m talking about and Tom for having friends on the internet and ordered an official Texas flag. Hardcore, bro.

                  Introducing More Useful Pins

                  When you find something you love on Pinterest, sometimes you want to learn more so you can act on baking those cookies, streaming that movie, or buying that couch. That’s why we’re taking a first step toward making pins more useful. We’re also making it easier to pin no matter where you are.

                  Here’s how:

                  Pins with more information

                  To start off, we worked with some popular websites to show more information on some pins, so you can do more of what you love. You might see:

                  -Product pins for things like clothes and furniture with pricing, availability, and where to buy (updated every day!)

                  -Recipe pins from your favorite bloggers and websites that include cook time, ingredients, and servings

                  -Movie pins with content ratings, cast members, and more

                  From your feed, you can tell when a pin has more information by the icon that appears below the picture. We’ll also update all of your old pins so they’re more useful, too. For an example, check out this board or just pin from any of these popular places.

                  For clothes, furniture, gifts and products:

                  Anthropologie, Asos, BHLDN, eBay, Etsy, Free People, Home Depot, Modcloth, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Overstock, REI, Sephora, Shopify shops, Shop Terrain, Sony, Target, Urban Outfitters, Walmart, Wayfair, Zulily

                  For mouth-watering recipes:

                  Pinning from mobile apps

                  We’re also making the Pin It button available in mobile apps, so you can pin on wherever you are! Take a look at these apps to get started:

                  Behance, Brit+Co, Etsy, Fotopedia, Jetsetter, Modcloth, Snapguide, TED, The North Face, and Zulily

                  You can only see these new pins in the new look. To get the new look, click the Get it now button on top of your home feed. This is just the beginning and we hope to make all pins more useful in the coming months. What types of pins would you like to see improved? Travel pins? Design pins? Pins of adorable puppies? Let us know in the comments.

                  Happy pinning (from everywhere)!

                    Dear Yahoo,

                    It seems like you kind of understand how much tumblr means to us, but in case we haven’t made it clear:

                    Screw this up and many of us will leave. And you can bet your sweet wagon cakes that we will make it our mission in life to let the internet know how monumentally you’ve failed. It ain’t for nothing that we’ve all been in a tizzy for the past week. Tumblr is home to millions of users that feel like it’s the one place that they can be themselves. Tread carefully— if you mess it up, you’ll be answering to all of us.

                    Sincerely,
                    The Users
