This is the most interesting episode of This American Life I’ve heard in a while. Two nurses who try to report an incompetent doctor end up charged with harassment in a truly epic display of small town politics.

You could lose yourself for hours in this site, which collects great examples of infographics from around the Web. Plus, you can make a graphic to compare your Twitter habits to celebrities. (Apparently, Conan O’Brien is much more interesting than I am.)

“So, my unsolicited advice to women in the workplace is this. When faced with sexism, or ageism, or lookism, or even really aggressive Buddhism, ask yourself the following question: “Is this person in between me and what I want to do?” If the answer is no, ignore it and move on. Your energy is better used doing your work and outpacing people that way. Then, when you’re in charge, don’t hire the people who were jerky to you.”
