Pimp pimp pimp

Today I am pimping out two Lithuanian blogs for ye.

The first one is called DIY-shirt and the name's pretty self-explanatory. The owner of the blog looked like female-Jesus for three days. I saw it with my own eyes.

The second one is 1979. This time it's a lad and he posts numbers and pictures. It's pretty interesting, but I wish he'd update more often.

The Art of Music

Ah, this update's all Flickr again! Ah well, it's got good shizz and I am forcing it all on to you :D This time I dug up some groups that contain flyers, posters and everything music-related.

Stripper Polaroids

And right underneath this photo, there's a comment that explains it all to us:
"This photo came from a collection of over 400 Polaroid photos of strippers trying out for dancing jobs at a So. Cal club. They were taken from the late 1960's thru the early 1970's. I bought the entire collection for $10."

Everything was stylish back then, even the strippers. Of course, there are some pictures that I wouldn't have included in the collection, but then it'd be too perfect and thus - no fun. So, come forth, the Stripper Polaroids @ Flickr.

Supernatural Lifeforms

It's Summer! Just look how good today's date looks in This Day in Type. It's a neat site, they've got a different looking type for every day. You can also submit something of your own.

Also, if you're nosy and like to read other people's confessions, you should got to Penance.us where people write their sins (in 7 main categories). You can add your own too.

Today's entry's got a little something to do with the outter planets as well. See Planet Detrus. I'm not a fan of flash sites, but this one I couldn't imagine done in HTML.

Finally, the last link leads to Felix Heinen's posters. I would really like to see them in full size.

I've got things to show

I was told to update :D Luckily I had a few things ready :)

So, the person who told me to update is named Agne and Agne once got a link from Agniya and it was a Flickr gallery of a theatre squat in London. It's quite amazing with 30+ people living in it.

Also, I had my art project's presentation on the 11th. It's for the art's exam, the creative part. I did a calendar of 2008 and the reason I am bringing this up is because I've found a really neat calendar out there. Mine was Zodiac signs travelling througth the months, but this one blew me away. I never imagined that you can get this original with a simple calendar.

Another nifty thing is The Baby Name Wizard. 1900 was the year when my name reached its popularity peak :D

The last one in April

I've been a lazy updater. Well, there are exams to study for, but that would be a lame excuse because I don't study as much as I should and I do have time for updates now and then. Ah well, spice ay life. Let's see what Vesta brings (I hope I'll make it til 12am, otherwise the subject line will be a lie).

I wish I could participate in something as cool as the Y Conference. I'd draw 100 teacups with a green marker or run out of ideas after 10 random drawings and my piece wouldn't be included in the website. But it would still be fun!

Another fun thing is Eat Poo U Cat. A friend named Milda showed it to me and I registered. It's kind of like Explodingdog.com in a way, but you can not only submit sentences, you can also draw stuff and even guess what's drawn. Make sure you go there.

Then I saw Print Gocco - another thing that I probably will never have but want to very badly. Bah. :<

But let's not think about it anymore. It's spring andLove is in the air, on the ground or anywhere else you'd like it to be.

Oh, I would like to write for a little longer, but there's not much time left for me. May 1st Reboot is starting in 5 minutes. Don't miss it!

The Little Ones

I was about to say that I don't know how come I haven't posted about them earlier, but I'd lie, because I do know why; had only two kinda-okay songs and didn't think much of them. But, a few days ago, I had the chance to listen to their self-released album 'Sing Song'(2006) and loved it. Some people call The Little Ones one of the happiest indie bands around, others call them summery-sounding - which means practically the same thing - and I couldn't agree more.

Genre: Indie

Tracks to download
The Little Ones - Oh, MJ!
The Little Ones - Lovers Who Uncover
The Little Ones - Lovers Who Uncover (Crystal Castles remix) - I can't decide which one I like more: this or the original.

The Cool Hunter

I've read an article about cool-hunts and there was a link to a not-working site bellow, so I googled 'cool-hunter' and found this site. I know that you might not like the 'mainstreamness' of the thing, but I've found some nice things in there and I would like to share them with you.


I like packaging, especially when it's good.


Shoo Biz is about... shoes? And the way people sell them. Also, some more shoes for you to costumise.


How come kids get the best looking clothes, things and even bookshops?


This one might be my favourite because I happen to be a footie addict and want to have a room like that.


Street style! Inspiration-Nation! Street Stalker! Street Stalker! Street Stalker!


My dream bag.


If you're not too sure whether you want your tattoo to be visible 24/7, you should consider this.

This update starts with something awesomely cool, it starts with a Magnetic fluid art installation that everyone should see. A nice person, who's also known as Turbo, gave me this link along with my birthday greeting :)

And then, we shall laugh our arses off with the im in ur base jokes. I can't even pick a favourite! If you want more, you should go here and here for Fresh Spam.

I love the internets :D
