Cute Cats….

Yeah, I’m making fun of the 10,000 vids of cats doing stuff on youtube. Your cat is no cuter than any other cat. And if you think about it, they’re not really that cute at all. You say playing. They say practicing to capture and kill dinner. ^^ Enjoy.

You tube videos

These are videos where you are in a tube…….

My landscape.  I wanted to explore the idea of the human body as a landscape…..and then my search for content descended into madness.  Enjoy.

Words

I found some interesting text on a forum.  Felt like saving it, so it’s going up here.

I fight like a girl—
I fight like a girl who refuses to be a victim; a girl who’s tired of being ignored and humored and beaten and raped; a girl who’s sick of not being taken seriously. I fight like a girl who’s been pushed too far; a girl who offers and demands respect; a girl who has a lifetime of anger and strength and pride pent up in her girly body. I fight like a girl who doesn’t believe in fear and submission; a girl who knows that this body and this mind are mine; a girl who knows you only have as much power as I grant you. I fight like a girl who will never allow you to take more than I offer… a girl who fights back.

[To Men] There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works. [To Women] Love is grand, divorce is a hundred grand. [To Everyone] Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either. Leave me alone. [To the Clan Members] Don’t be irreplaceable. If you can’t be replaced, you can’t be promoted. [To High Level Players Who Dislike Noobs] Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines. [To Myself] Experience is something you don’t get until just after you need it.[To The Dead] It is hard to understand how a cemetery raised its burial cost and blamed it on the cost of living. Finally [To Us Noobs] Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark, professionals built the Titanic.

Kotowaza

If you know Japanese, and have studied Japanese sayings (kotowaza) then you’ll know that the large text on this poster is a kotowaza.  It’s to let people know that if they don’t conform on their own, society will put them in line.  Sad, but true, individualizm is not looked upon well there.  So, when I decided to make a poster about religious freedom and parents basically railroading their kids into whatever faith they happen to follow, I had no idea what to do.  It wasn’t until I found this picture, instantly thought of that  quote, and put it towards the individual parent (not society) that this concept was born.  It’s a simple, strong visual.  No offence meant towards any religion, but there can’t be faith without doubt first, so I don’t like the idea that many children are raised on it and never given the chance to think about it.  It’s just assumed that they’ll follow it until they die, never questioning it.
