Designers Spin Spidey-Worthy Webs From Packing Tape
Packing tape has gotten MacGyver out of many a jam, but he never managed to make an entire home out of the stuff. So he could probably learn something from Viennese/Croatian design collective For Use/Numen. The team uses nothing but packing tape to create huge, self-supporting cocoons that visitors could climb inside and explore. Installed three times in the past year, the next deployment will be next week from June 9–13 at DMY Berlin's International Design Fair, which is now in its 8th year. The installations, which look like the work of horrifyingly large arachnids, grew in scale and scope as the year progressed, first deployed inside a small Croatian gallery, then an abandoned attic during October’s Vienna Design Week. At the last installation inside Odeon, a former stock exchange building in Vienna, the group used nearly 117,000 feet and 100 pounds of tape.

Passive Aggressive Notes
There seems to be a trend towards not confronting our problems. People are, more and more, avoiding conflict and becoming passive aggressive in how they deal with it. Fortunately, sometimes that passive aggressive way of dealing with problems is funny, and sometimes those funny passive aggressive notes people like to leave behind get photographed. Which is your favorite passive aggressive note. The yellow sticky note was kind, the blue tape with the question on it was just asking for somebody named Dave to steal all of their tea and drink it. It’s a pretty big assumption that the person you’re leaving notes to is also a Christian. There’s nothing better than turning religion back on people that try to use it on you. How passive aggressive would you be for a Klondike Bar? The part of me that was a waiter is appalled by this.

Teenagers draw on animation film to highlight plight of child soldiers | Society
Untold Stories by Zoom Animation on YouTube Dili Diey, 25, fled to England from southern Sudan as a boy soldier and now lives in Huddersfield. "Count yourselves lucky to be at peace in Kirklees. Killing someone haunts you for the rest of your life," he tells a group of young people from four Kirklees schools. Diey's harrowing story features in the animated film, Untold Stories, part of a new campaign, Books Not Bullets, to highlight the plight of child soldiers. "Dili's story shocked us," says Janita Rauf, 14. As part of its annual event to mark Holocaust Memorial Day, Kirklees Museums and Galleries, part of Kirklees council, asked children from four schools to come up with a campaign inspired by Richard Oastler, who in the 1830s successfully campaigned for shorter working hours for child workers in Huddersfield's mills.

USDA Inspector General: meat supply routinely tainted with harmful residues
In Meat Wagon, we round up the latest outrages from the meat and livestock industries. Oh, you wanted those burgers without harmful residues! Sorry, the USDA’s meat-inspection service can’t really help you on that score. Next time you’re at an eatery whose sourcing practices you don’t trust, avoid the veal. The report focuses on the USDA’s system for keeping hazardous chemical residues–”veterinary drugs, pesticides, and heavy metals”– out of the meat supply. How is the agency doing at this critical task? The problem is not trivial, as the report makes clear: Residues of drugs, pesticides, and heavy metals differ from microbiological pathogens like E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria Monocytogenes, which the public more readily associates with food safety. In fact … “In some cases, heat may actually break residues down into components that are more harmful to consumers.” Evidently, the problem is worst of all for meat from animals raised on dairy farms.
