The title is the entire post, so I will not spoil it: this post at JulieKraut.com.
You might not download a car, but me? by Adam P Knave.
Halala Mama. This is one of the very few mama blogs I read for pleasure and I cherish it so much. It's funny, real, and it's about her life with her kid rather than being about her kid.
Cinematical. I know, I know, a mainstream movie blog? Hold it right there! There are a TON of amazing women writing about film on this site. It's worth wading through the junk you don't care about to get to the good stuff here. If you like movies, add it to your reader and look for posts by the women, or browse the site and add their feeds individually instead.
Big Fat Deal. I found this blog when I rudely blundered into a BlogHer "room of your own" conversation 15 minutes before the next one started. I had no idea I was in the right place at the wrong time. Mo Pie was hosting, and she was infinitely gracious about my complete lack of clue. I'm so glad I screwed up that day, though, because it got me reading this blog.
The Mystery of Girls' Media. This is the kind of blog I imagined I would pore over for hours when I had a daughter to raise. Once I adjusted my brain to the arrival of my son, I find I'm poring over it anyway, but with a totally different perspective. Give Caitlin some love.
angry asian man. News, culture, tons of music videos, webisode recommendations, and just about everything else you can imagine. Not particularly angry. Usually pretty chill, honestly. At the very least, go check out his blog banner.
thxthxthx: a thank you note a day. On little yellow post-it looking notes and everything. So lovely and inspiring.
It says a lot about the second half of 2009 and the first half of 2010 around here that I originally intended You Should Be Reading These Blogs as a monthly series... and Part the First was published in December 2009.
As we have seemingly emerged from that Suck-fest, however, I present Part the Second in what will hopefully become a monthly series here in the Kingdom. Three blogs I love but have never linked to before, except possibly in my leetle blogroll in the sidebar which I change around all the time.
The Crunk Feminist Collective. Their tagline is "Where Crunk Meets Conscious and Feminism Meets Cool" and is it SO TRUE. If I were to list for you all the amazing pieces of writing I have read over there, I would never finish this post. Get yourself over there.
Where's Lulu? Without this blog, I might never have known about the world's first wheelchair double back flip, or seen a video of a man performing Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" in ASL. Toshio and Caitlin rock and I am so glad they blog.
Ask A Manager is an advice column for all things job-related, but way more fun than you would think. Anyone who writes a post titled there's a high likelihood that your job postings suck is okay in my book. If you have ever had a job, looked for a job, hired someone for a job, or think that you might do any of these things in the future, you should be reading this.
Making Changes... Or Not! on The Glass Dragonfly.
Application for Employment on Clever Girl Goes Blog.
I Won't Believe in Heaven and Hell; No Saints, No Sinners, No Devil as Well on no appropriate behavior.
Iron Man! on Bent Objects.

I have done a ton of link posts since back in the time when I started doing link posts. I have been delinquent, however. There are blogs you should be reading that I have never ever linked to, not once. How could I have deprived you all this time?
Here are three of them.
The Loony Bin. She has more kids than I do, and their life is much more entertaining. So actually, you could just stop reading this blog and read hers. Start with Baby Calls Police, Mom Embarrassed and Baby's First Bug.
The Mormon Child Bride. So. funny. Try ranty rant mcranterson and i'm blonde and never got drunk growing up, which is why i got to marry a return missionary, instead of a convert. And if some more stuff for you guys. and an extra addition. isn't still on the front page when you head over there, make sure you read that too.
Siditty. Insightful, entertaining politics / society / culture blog. I'll let a couple of the post titles speak for themselves: Hugging Is Sinful?-Christians Yall Need To Get Your Folks Off The Stage and Why You Can't Use The N-Word.
Now move on along and read some stuff.
