You may not realize it, but those are ALL THE SAME SNAKE…
Get to know Craig and his BFF in the premiere of Sanjay & Craig Saturday morning at 10:30am/9:30c only on Nick!
infomercial kitten.
why is no-one willing to sell him a special kitten straw for $19.95
thanks obama
It’s Alumni Monday! My, little doxies, what big teeth you have! That’s Badass alum Charlie Parker (right) and his new forever sister Wren, cuddled up for a snooze and showing off their ferocious teeth. You can almost hear their snoring through the computer. Way to go, Charlie Parker!
After trying to capture a long exposure image of the stars while camping, Chris McCaw accidentally forgot to close the shutter before sunrise. The result was an image so overexposed that the film was physically changed.
Since then, Chris has perfected the process and compiled his work into a fantastic book.
Accidental Overexposed Images Become inspiration

Black Hole Powered Jets Plow Into Galaxy
This composite image of a galaxy illustrates how the intense gravity of a supermassive black hole can be tapped to generate immense power. The image contains X-ray data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), optical light obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (gold) and radio waves from the NSF’s Very Large Array (pink).
This multi-wavelength view shows 4C+29.30, a galaxy located some 850 million light years from Earth. The radio emission comes from two jets of particles that are speeding at millions of miles per hour away from a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy. The estimated mass of the black hole is about 100 million times the mass of our Sun. The ends of the jets show larger areas of radio emission located outside the galaxy.
The X-ray data show a different aspect of this galaxy, tracing the location of hot gas. The bright X-rays in the center of the image mark a pool of million-degree gas around the black hole. Some of this material may eventually be consumed by the black hole, and the magnetized, whirlpool of gas near the black hole could in turn, trigger more output to the radio jet.
Most of the low-energy X-rays from the vicinity of the black hole are absorbed by dust and gas, probably in the shape of a giant doughnut around the black hole. This doughnut, or torus blocks all the optical light produced near the black hole, so astronomers refer to this type of source as a hidden or buried black hole. The optical light seen in the image is from the stars in the galaxy.
I don’t particularly like the way I look. Women don’t seem to find me attractive. I work out, sort of, but it doesn’t seem to make any actual difference to my appearance. I’m bulgy, and hairy in weird places, and I’m balding up top. I’m scrawny yet flabby. I’m like a tall, well-disciplined, expertly conditioned, highly toned chunk of flab. Like, most guys work out and they look better at the end of it. I exercise like 6 days a week and I still look like shit. My biceps look like turds no matter how much I curl. I can see my abs, but it isn’t worth the view; they’re lumpy and kind of shaped funny. My forearms look like a badger’s ass. I have a pale-green, mottled red complexion. Yep, I’m ugly.
If I wasn’t bipolar, I might wonder if I was anorexic or body-dysmorphic or something. I am bipolar though, so I know this accounts for how I see myself. I hate what I see, but that’s because I hate everything I see. I eat. I don’t starve myself. Sometimes I think I should starve myself, but then I think “…nah.” I have to be very careful what I eat so that it doesn’t fuck with my meds, but I eat a healthy amount of it, whatever it is.
I get so depressed sometimes that it’s difficult to move, or think. I can’t feel my hands or my feet some days. I get shooting pains in my eyeballs and ringing in my ears. Sometimes I hallucinate, and it’s never pretty. I manage to avoid manic episodes when I’m awake, but they come out in my dreams. I have dreams so real that I have to keep journals to sort them from things that actually happened.
I’m ugly, and crazy, and I hate my life. Ain’t I fun to be around? Don’t mind me, I’m just bitching. Tomorrow I’ll wake up and slog through this same shit again. One foot in front of the other. I might be depressed as hell, but I’m also stubborn as fuck and I have a mean evil nasty vicious streak that keeps me plodding forward, looking for damage to do. If I’M going to suffer, then by God somebody else is going to suffer.
Settlements and City Strategies by olalekan jeyifous
This series contains abstracted planimetric drawings and eerily-serene cityscapes that suggest the changing contours of urban settlements. They represent an idea of a degenerate futurism, yet one might find similar typologies and scenes in places such as the favelas of Brazil and North Africa, and in overpopulated cities such as Lagos, Mexico City, and Mumbai. Though outputted digitally, the drawings possess a textured and painterly quality as a result of combining hand-drawn sketches, industrial textures, surfaces of deteriorated paper, and digital architectural models.
A constant interplay between digital and analog processes is important in my work, resulting in a highly layered set of documents. The drawings presented here started out as digital images that were outputted, sketched and drawn over, and scanned back into the computer in order to be retraced, textured, and layered
