Fun fact: If the urban legend is true, Paul Leary of the Butthole Surfers got a bunch of money for this incursion.

When I-35 first sliced through Austin, Texas, homes and businesses in the path of construction were forced to relocate. No archive was kept of the lives that the highway upended.
As TxDOT now moves to expand the interstate, photographer Liz Moskowitz records the stories of people being displaced.

Writing letters about how great you are so you can tap dance in front of people so they may let you use their library is hilarious.
Apparently “I am not a sad, insufferable clown and I will not hit on you nor talk to you” is not an acceptable cover letter in and of itself.
Bummer.

I know that I’ve been in big kid land with all this life stuff, but I didn’t know there was a new CE.
I adore the trashy, fun of the original, at least the first season, but that second one was a struggle bus.
I’m morbidly curious about this!

[Review] While this seems like a relatively functional introduction to Cat's Eye, it's hard not to feel like you might be better served with the 80s anime instead.

Mamoru Oshii’s rendering of Ghost In The Shell is 30 today. This is a film that has lived inside me, and its themes are something I have visited, and revisited, through various periods of my work. I had the pleasure to interview the film’s composer Kenji Kawai.

If you have more than 10k followers mutuals should be able to hit a “you’re being weird” button and once it gets to 50 clicks in 24 hours it sends you a pop up like “your friends are concerned. Maybe log off”
