National Zoo Pamphlet 1978

I don’t think it can be overstated what a profound and immediate effect the 1968 Olympics had on graphic design worldwide, and what a timeless visual language it introduced to the world.
thank you for the link to the full LOC scan! i love that they even used one of the icons as the second "o" of "zoo"
So well done. I just love the subtle-yet-immediately-recognizable distinctions between 'bear' and 'polar bear', or 'swan' and 'goose', 'jaguar' & 'cheetah', etc.

is just a small piece of the evidence that job hunting and work in general is completely broken in 2026. I really don't look forwards to needing a job in 4-6 months.

Phoebe Bridgers - "Best Dressed"
alt text
audio post on youtube: "best dressed" by phoebe bridgers, the secret track on her third LP "lost weekend". the video is a single still photo of bridgers, standing before a glittering cityscape after dusk, with her face illuminated with a ghostly blue light
"In the middle of June
There's a windowless room
Where no light gets through but mine
Where I made my own heart
Out of Frigidaire parts
And I imitate art from outside
It could've been anyone
You could've been anyone
But you were the best dressed, baby
Wearing your sharp white teeth
You didn't mean to scare me, but it's easy
Sorry I was not ready
I was a kid in a sheet
I know I don't get to miss you
But that's what's happening"
----- -----
secret track from the recently-released album "lost weekend", featuring isaac wood (black country, new road; the guest). on the CD, it's hidden in the track 1 pregap; on the LP it's on side D (which should be blank, excitedly mentioned in comment here: https://mltshp.com/p/1RUO6)
i don't think this track is available to purchase anywhere at the moment, so bless the person who digitized this (seemingly the moment the album released). i've been humming this one a lot lately.

Pretty sure this is her 2nd track with Justin K. Broadrick (Godflesh / Jesu) on it...the other one made the record.

selfie of worn-out middle-aged mostly-white dude who is thrilled to be alive. of note is the old denim baseball cap subject is wearing, which has a fire-engine red and mustard yellow rectangular patch with stitched cursive script reading “country music hall”
nothing else, just i’m your pawpaw now and i love this hat (found amongst the “thrifted” stuff hanging in a nook at my favorite coffee shop)
every time i saw it, it reminded me of similar stitched denim caps my maternal grandfather wore in the 80s and 90s (though usually with dekalb, international harvester, or some other farming company on the crown patch)

Strength Card
alt text
The Strength Card. A young woman with pink hair is holding a bowl of rosemary in front of her. She is standing in the doorway leading to her backyard deck. There are several animals sitting, waiting for her: a possum, a red fox, a coyote, and a raccoon.
Another card completed for my upcoming Feral Path Tarot™. This is the Strength card, featuring my friend Gina (@tittygitter) who is now a proud Kiwi. Gina is not a witch. Not is she a tarot reader. But Gina possesses a magick that many of us have lost. This woman can tame almost any wild animal with her voice and demeanor.
I’ve watched video clips of her for years when she lived in a very woodsy part of Oregon. She would walk out to her deck and there would be possums, raccoons, squirrels, foxes—you name it—just sitting there waiting for her. Not fighting. Sitting together like friends.
This one of the deeper meanings of the Strength card. The ability to overcome our wild nature, and even our desires, as seen by the coiled serpent (Kundalini) which corresponds to the Hebrew letter Teth (snake). I chose a spiderweb for the lemniscate (infinity symbol) as spiders have so many connections to the universe, bridging liminal spaces and so many other meanings. I hope you like this very wild departure from the expected look of the Strength card.

Already my favorite deck ever
I don’t even do tarot but when this is finished I’m buying the heck out of it.

Flashback
alt text
Cleaning up my closet. This is not only feels so long ago, but it’s almost like a parallel reality. I’ve made some of my best interactive animations that were slightly incomprehensible, yet poetic, in Flash. It’s almost impossible to let other people enjoy them now. Flash was awful, yet fantastic and nothing has taken up the baton.
(And before you ask: they were very interactive, so exporting them as movies doesn’t work. And yes, I know of workarounds and projects to convert it, but it’s all very limited and unsatisfactory)
It was the best of tools, it was the worst of tools.
All I did was Flash for the first 10 years of my career. I have fond memories.

Farewell Tonka
alt text
A picture of the most handsome brown tabby you could imagine , sitting on a green couch, looking at the camera
RIP Tonka
Tonka was a rescue we took home in May to help heal the hole we had in our hearts after our kitty passed after 19 years with us.
He apparently had a heart condition, and out of nowhere today had an aneurysm, and we had to put him down.
He was big , beautiful , and we didn’t have enough time with him.
I just thought everyone should get a chance to see how goddamn handsome he was.

I'm sorry for your loss. May his memory be a blessing.

You think you can hate technology properly if you just USE it? LOL! ROFL!
Try SUPPORTING it! You'll find your hatred fanned into a white-hot incandescent rage, profanities pouring from your mouth like a dam opening up the sluice-gates, your blood pressure rising to levels that no human should ever have to tolerate. Your soul will be sucked out of your body on a daily basis. You will crave the approach of five o'clock like a dying man in the desert craves a drop of water.
