Dwell Magazine teaches its readership to be at home in the modern world, accompanied by beautifully-shot, if strangely emotionally detached, photos of grandiose homes, elaborate backyards, unconventional furniture and other stuff white people like. Here to push it over the edge of self-parody: Unhappy Hipsters, a Tumblr with captions like the one above that will make you laugh out loud. Who knows how long it will remain active before Dwell steps in to take it down, so enjoy it while it lasts. If you’re so inclined, you can also follow the site on Twitter here for updates when new entries are posted.

The WSJ’s Speakeasy today posted about a previously unreleased Whitney Houston track from 1985. But more striking for me than the unpolished recording from a pop icon-in-the-making is the accompanying photo. Not only is it a bit jarring to see Houston so fresh-faced and young in light of the unfortunate turn her life and career took in the 2000′s, but it’s kind of funny how she’s dressed exactly like a lot of girls today. Place her as is in the East Village, and she wouldn’t even get a second look. Unless she started screaming.
