Everyone deserves a lil' fireplace to curl up next...
I love these portable, stylish fireplaces for apartments and homes sadly lacking in the fire department….

Everyone seems to agree: Ayn Rand is back, and more relevant than ever.
– She’s Back! - Reason Magazine (via televisionarie & biteofpythias)
