My Top 5 Artists (Week Ending 2010-5-30)
Becky Cloonan for Demo 2.03. Love her sketches at the back of each issue.
The Quite Sketchy collective, because the ego needs to be stroked too. I think we might need a few more members though. If you’re interested, message either of us.
Barbara Canepa. There’s too many great French artists that speak only French. I can’t read that!
Ashley Wood. Still dislike the panels he...

I couldn’t find any good images of Demo 2.03 on the internet beside the cover, but damn. Damn, damn, damn. Volume One Love Story is a fantastic issue. It’s almost to cute, but only almost because it’s never sickeningly sweet. I admit that the storytelling is one of those that feels custom-made just for me as the love story of Marlo is told through post-its. Post-its! Lots of...

The new Scott Pilgrim Vs The World trailer, it made me squee even more. And it seems it got a pretty early Swedish cinema release! Fuck yeah! I hope that’s true, because then I’ma gonna see this on my birthday.

I’m going to spin records the entire day — Warren Zevon and Mr Bad Example right now — and probably not do anything else. Because everything else is crap crap crap. The moodiness is taking it’s toll.

Skip this if you don’t want to hear speculation of spoilers for the lastest Dr Who episode (5.9).
When Rory disappeared the box stayed behind. THE BOX STAYED BEHIND. And it’s not about the TARDIS because then Amy who was in the there too should have been unaffected.
Also, Amy’s “there we are again” when it’s only her and “I thought I saw someone...

idsploder asked: The alligators are organizing. Chainsaw breath and milkshoes. Where is the planetary rocking chair?

Hasenpfeffer loincloth.
The world turns out like this: I will not do any more work on the last drawing as I’m a huge fuckup. Saved the wrong file, which I discovered too late so now that one I posted is the largest on in existence — and I like to work in at least four times that size. Otherwise it’s useless for everything but the crappy Internets.
The weekend started out pretty crappy and now it just keeps...

Swiss Cheese and Bullets: How to sell magazines →
Threat Quality Press have a great post by an ex-Borderite on why the way we sell magazines is pretty stupid. It raises some interesting issues about the ghettoisation of magazines in shops (for example, why aren’t sci-fi mags kept with the sci-fi books, instead of next to the knitting mags?),…
I like this. The biggest problem I think is the way they’re line up in most places....

This week's recommendation: wockerjabby →
I thought and thought and wondered which category to choose, but in the end I decided to use the science. Because Rabi is pretty damn hardcore about that.
I studied a lot in school. I studied hard in high school and at Harvard and in...
– Josh Lyman to Amy Gardner, “H. Con-172,” The West Wing
Oh, only one of the most adorable “I like you” speeches ever. Made more adorable by the fact that I have the exact same problem as Mr. Lyman.
(via dooeypig)
I’ve been thinking about this since Gwyn posted it. I wasn’t really that...

I’m home now and not too sure about how I feel about that.
Late Night Spaced Watch as two people had missed the show’s existance. We’ve seen almost everything. Season two, episode four now. Still as excellent as ever.

Roger Funk says “hello” to the Internets.
On the photo book
Tommy asked and I can’t be bothered to open Gmail right now so I take it here. (Besides, cheap Friday content!)
No, it’s not done. Still at work on it, the first version turned out to be a bit too eclectic. Need to refine and limit the theme a bit, only have people photos. Shuffle about the pages. I also got a few other design ideas, but we’ll talk about that sometime soon at...

Roadtrip tomorrow to see some friends over the weekend. I will do the alcohol, so there might be drunk postings! Weekend fun for you guys. Collect em all. Now I need to find lost and lots of songs about the road to listen to (bad puns are also accepted).

10 things I don't get
John Meyer, everything about
Maths, how it work
Lost, the greatness of
Bland beer, drinking instead of those that taste great
Exploration of space, why it sort of devolved after we went to the moon
The heat, what’s so great about sweating because of
The ocean, the appeal of
The Mekons, why not more people listen to
Dan Brown, who gave a publishing deal to
People, how to say hi to

About the tl;dr — when used sincerely
I don’t like it. Blogs are, mostly, about communication. If you can’t be arsed to read a few paragraphs, why the fuck do you bother to follow?
tl;dr is the equivalent of “books? nah, i read one in school ten years ago. it was boring.” I don’t want to come off as judgemental but it is stupidity put on a pedistal. Ok, I lied, I did actually want to sound as an arrogant...

Wait, why *are* you awake so early? I mean other than to watch cartoons and drink vodka and oj, is there another reason?
I did watch cartoons. Some of them were worthless. Others just downright bizarre, and I’m no stranger to that. When I grew up, Swedish television hade som bugfucking...
It’s 10 AM, I’m awake, and I have no clue what to do now. It’s two hours too late for listening to Chisel’s 8 AM All Day, there’s a light outside and birds are tweeting. Seriously, what happens?!

Making of
quitesketchy:
This is what will be “A crime-infested alley in a seedy neighbourhood.” Yes, I’m obviously a rather huge Middleman fan. You have to deal with that.
First I doodle about in Paint Tool Sai and create a grey background. Preferably with some textures in it so I used a brush instead of the fill tool.

So I made this just now. Really need to stop holding the pen so damn...
idsploder replied to your post: On things that make me bored; a list
There is no shame in loving Hudson Hawk. It’s a great story about a guy who just wants a goddamn cappuccino.
And it teaches us the importance of airbags and sprinkler systems.
