I know you know I like beading and beads but did you ever spend 5 years making a more or less life sized kitchen out of beads

Colour photo. Art installation, Liza Lou's Kitchen, at the Whitney Museum of American Art, NYC. It's a kitchen made of tiny glass beads, that artist Liza Lou did, taking 5 yrs. to complete, from 1991 - 1996. Installation is approx 7 foot tall, 9 by 9 wide. Shown is a detail of the sink, with beaded wash water, beaded Comet and Joy containers, bead curtains, beaded 'til counter' and all in bright and cheerful colours. on tumblr, hometoursandotherstuff provided photo

Fark headline: Priest from excommunicated Catholic sect claims "A future pope will welcome us back". Wrong answer. It's supposed to be "We'll start our own church, with hookers and blackjack"
(which is a quote by the character Bender in Futurama)

How did asteroids end up looking like chocolates? Or vice versa?

From the Ferrero Rocher web site, their classic hazelnut orbs shown during the manufacturing process as a curtain of chocolate envelops them. The uncoated pieces look somewhat like asteroids.

@brokenbottleboy.bsky.social The font is ended, but the parody lingers on.

A memorial of Mic Wright's deleted bluesky post Look, I think we all know that writing instantly improves once you’ve chosen the right typeface and point size. “This document in Ariel 12pt? Unthinkable.” in various successive fonts.

B&W photograph by Helmut Newton. Date unknown but likely late 1940s.
Shows two women from the waist down. No hands are shown. One woman appears to be pushed against a fence; she's wearing rolled down black stockings and black lace-up pumps, and her dress/skirt is hiked up, exposing parts of both of her thighs. The other woman is wearing sheer stockings and stilettos and a knee length dress.

This made me howl. I can see this happening in Victoria or Vancouver, and I would pop out from behind the bread rack and say, "you KNOW naan means BREAD"

So I'm at a grocery store and a guy looks at me then turns to his wife and says "oh ya we need naan bread". I'm always happy to help.

the sculptor musta had fun with this

On Bay St in Toronto is a sculpted frieze of 'men working'. In this photo it seems as if a top hatted gent is reaching his hand into an industrial worker's pocket. There's another industrial worker shown, and behind the top hatted gent is a phalanx of briefcase carrying men in suits.

The Pride Banner of the Barony of Seagirt, part of the SCA.

SCA loves Pride! The banner of the Barony of Seagirt, Kingdom of An Tir, with a Pride background. "Banner graciously designed by the superhumanly talented Katrin of Seagirt."

Over the chevron Pride banner is a medieval styled orca, with a stylized blue curl of water coming from its blowhole and a red tongue sticking out.

Newton was likely ace/aro, but that aside, I enjoyed this joke:

Sir Isaac Newton in a portrait. Newton was likely aro/ace, but in this meme he says "I like them thicc af...." Someone not shown says "But Sir Newton, we can't write that!" To which he responds, "Then write this ; the greater the mass, the greater the force of attraction."

People die in the middle of things. This is the last magazine that my pOp was reading. He was a huge Manly Wade Wellman fan. This image scanged from isfdb.org; pOp's is faded and quite beat up.
