Post-election links having (almost) nothing to do with politics:

  • This Fucking Election captures all the catchphrases of these last two brutal years.
  • Tim Schafer’s bizarro life presents him with a semi piled high with cement caskets, and he has the good sense to blog it.
  • We Bleed Design: Very clever interplay between foreground and background imagery; scroll down for the win.
  • Writer’s strike? No problem; Annie Hall with all dialogue stripped out is still a super-hilarious picture.  And while the study of any one Woody Allen credit roll would suffice, The Art of the Title Sequence appreciates a broader style.  Several are better than their films deserve.
  • There’s an ultra delicious burger waiting for me at Hodad’s in Ocean Beach, CA. I must possess it…
  • Chilling on-the-ground images of the town of Chernobyl, which still has a couple hundred residents. Slogging through page after page of empty-shell communist apartment buildings makes the last page of the gallery all the more poignant, as you see snapshots of the town before the disaster–full of happy children.  It’s like a Jerry Bruckheimer opening sequence in reverse!
  • Japan continues to amaze as they deliver Kewpie Mayonnaise, which comes in a plastic bottle (okay) in a plastic bag (WTF?!?)  Frivolous packaging FTL.  And it has MSG.  BTW.  Also, please enjoy hilarious and inventive bento at Wackyfun Food Art Time.
