A Blog

kaajoo: World’s Most Beautiful Abandoned Places Italian product manager and web designer Francesco Mugnai recently added a collection of images to his blog touting some of the most beautiful images of abandoned spots and modern ruins that he’d ever seen. The images Mugnai has captured come from empty castles, shuttered power plants, and dilapidated churches around the world. From a sunken yacht in Antarctica to a forever-closed amusement park in Japan, these images all make up a sort of anti-phoenix; rather than rising as new from the ashes, these husks remain preserved in decomposition, forcing viewers to confront the strange beauty of ruination. kaajoo: World’s Most Beautiful Abandoned Places Italian product manager and web designer Francesco Mugnai recently added a collection of images to his blog touting some of the most beautiful images of abandoned spots and modern ruins that he’d ever seen.

loish: the latest in the lois-gets-her-art-stolen chronicles: a chilean publisher has decided to take this artwork, drag it through photoshop hell, and use it as a cover for this book, obviously without permission or compensation of any kind. not only is it copyright infringement but making book covers this ugly should be outlawed too. anyways, i went through this before when i found my art printed on sweaters in south korea. i talked to a few different lawyers at the time, who told me that i needed a lawyer in the actual country that the theft was taking place. sending threatening letters from the netherlands just wasn’t the way to be taken seriously or get things solved. because i never found out who was making those korean sweaters, i decided to give up fighting after they were removed from the korean web-shops - it just wasn’t worth the money i would have to invest in pursuing it. however, this time around i actually do know who the thief is (Puerto de Escape in Chile) and i intend to go after them. however, i need someone who is familiar with chilean law and ideally could hook me up with a lawyer in chile to help me out and give advice. i could also use advice from anyone familiar with these situations and how they can be resolved. if you guys could spread the word and e-mail me at loishh@gmail.com with any information, that would help me SO much! thanks a ton for reading!!

toni-tan: cloud-killed-by-doors: So at the Funwaystuck meetup in Illinois over winter break, there were probably 50+ Homestuck cosplayers crammed into an arcade/bowling ally area on a busy Saturday.  Naturally, there was a lot of mingling between cosplayers and other families that weren’t part of the meet up.  However, while most of the families ignored or avoided the cosplayers, this one tiny girl was completely intrigued with us! It was so cool to see her asking questions and playing with a Karkat  and Jade while her family stood next to her, also smiling and laughing. It was just really cool to see, and sort of showcased to me how amazing the Homestuck fandom really is. I know we get a bit of a bad reputation in the cosplay community, but this was just the perfect example of how amazing some of us really are.
