Batman Only Works in Black...and Sometimes Very, Very Dark Grey

What do Batman, the Ninja Turtles, and some 2002 NBA All Stars have in common? They all have Lego Mini figures and they're all in this trailer:

Calling it right now. Best film of 2014.

K.K. Slider is Up All Night to Get Lucky

It's been a little while! Here's the latest weird music thing I've come across: a K.K. Slider cover of a Daft Punk song, "Get Lucky." Since everything Daft Punk does is electronic anyway, K.K.'s vocals work nicely.



Aww, I want that Animal Crossing 3DS XL soooo much!

Probably the Most Inspirational Music Video Ever

No computer graphics in this video! Commander Chris Hadfield recorded this music video in space to mark his departure from the International Space Station. Everything this man does is amazing.



Some lyrics changed from the original David Bowie version, so he doesn't die at the end. That would not be good.

Also, JJ Abrams was onto something. Space IS shiny.

I Made This #4: What to do when you have too many mugs

I have a little problem. I have a ton of oversized mugs! They don't really fit in the cupboard anymore. And then, for my birthday, a friend bought me the biggest mug I've ever seen and I joked about how you could use it as a flower pot. But after I said it I thought, wait, I WILL make this a flower pot! And then I did.

And you can too! The project won't set you back more than $20, so if you have some mugs or ceramics or whatever that you want to repurpose, read on! The key issue is drainage.

Book of Mormon/Death Note Mashup Works Unexpectedly Well

If you are familiar with the basic plot of Death Note this is awesome. I guess there are some similarities between Light Yagami and Mormon missionaries... okay not really. It might be fair to say they both set out to do something that would "blow God's mind" as the song says; just, Light does it by killing lots and lots of people.

Letters to an Absent Father

The artist from my previous post reminded me of a mini comic series that was popular a couple of years back. Every Pokémon fan has wondered at some point where the heck Ash's dad is hiding. Then Maré Odomo made a surprisingly touching comic series on the topic. His comic is available for sale here, but it's not too hard to find them all on the internets if you know what you're looking for. Still, those stickers that come with the book are soooo cute!

Too tired to name this post.
