My name is Lauren Buckley.
I'm the daughter of the daughter of a farmer's daughter. I was raised in Wisconsin. Educated in Minnesota. I seem to be on a never ending tour of the Midwest via clients and companies. Opinionated since 1983. Sarcastic since somewhere around there.

These are my diggings into the registry of design, op-ed, digital and diction related imagination piques.

You may not agree with a woman, but to criticize her appearance—as opposed to her ideas or actions—isn’t doing anyone any favors, least of all you. Insulting a woman’s looks when they have nothing to do with the issue at hand implies a lack of comprehension on your part, an inability to engage in high-level thinking. You may think she’s ugly, but everyone else thinks you’re an idiot.

The Tangential: “Millennials Are Poor Schlubs Living On Breast Milk (Still?),” Says Underpaid Boomer Columnist Who Doesn’t Like Twitter »

thetangential:

I have read all the articles and I have these requests:

Stop talking about how my generation is pathetic because some of us live at home after college. The economy crashed because generations before us were greedy and irresponsible with money, not because we spent too much time as…

I love fresh perspectives.

A month ago, when I featured this photograph by Mitch Dobrowner, I didn’t make the connection that I’d already come across Dobrowner’s work at the Look3 Festival in my hometown of Charlottesville, Virginia. It was this past summer at a nighttime slide show featuring the work of a couple dozen or so photographers in an outdoor pavilion. Dobrowner’s work was among the first up. I was with my sister and we were both wowed. His photographs featured at Look3 were from a series he did on storms, and they immediately popped to mind as I was listening just now to tomorrow’s interview with New York Times environmental reporter Justin Gillis. It’s all about climate change and extreme weather. Behold, the power of the skies.
