The Jewish Museum in Berlin

The Jewish Museum in Berlin was definitely a meaningful experience for a museologist (and half-Jew) like me. But it sounds like their current exhibit “The Whole Truth” is causing a lot of controversy in more ways than one. To help educate postwar generations who are largely uninformed and have no...

Graceland Too in Holly Springs, Mississippi (Paul MacLeod)

Elvis died August 16, 1977 (or did he???). I’ve been wanting to write about this place for, I don’t know, a few years but I’ll let American Guide tell you about it because I am a lazy procrastinator who actually hasn’t even been to the original Graceland (one day I’ll...

The Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, England

I think this week Kanye and I will tell you about our favorite museums of all time. Okay…I know I haven’t seen every museum in the world, but I’ve been to quite a few in my day, especially when I studied them for a year and a half. So I...

Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences

I was in the middle of writing something fairly interesting, then walked away to do non-internet things and several hours later all I have to say is “ah fuck it, who cares?” Instead I leave you with a picture from the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences. Down in the...

Zair Azgur Museum, Belarus

Zair Azgur Museum, Belarus

Tomorrow might be American Independence Day, but let’s not forget that other countries celebrate their freedoms too. Maybe not with hot dogs and beer and fireworks and loud, drunk people but still…freedom isn’t always annoying-free. Uh…can you tell it is my least favorite holiday? One country we have not yet...
