Friday The 13th Tattoo Flash Day at Underground Art, Memphis Tennessee So it's that time of year again, Friday the 13th is upon us. This Friday, December 13th 2019 I'll be doing any tattoo on this sheet from $60-$120 depending on size and color.

HALF LIFE IS BACK AFTER 13 YEARS So one of my all-time favorite game franchises is coming back after a 13 year hiatus. The amount of hours I've invested in the Black Mesa Research Facility I almost feel as though I was once an employee there.

i literally can’t stop thinking about this video and i lose it every time

[zamzamafterzina]

Lmfao

[noneeyewithleftyork]

okay everything about this video is absolute gold:

the fact that the guy argues via the puppet the entire time

the music

“let’s discuss the contradiction”

the overuse of the word “camera”

the way the puppet goes from trying to placate the guy to actively arguing against the guy and like turning it around on the guy

“youre consciously making a conscious choice”

the fact that by the end the puppet is basically screaming and the music is just. so loud.

“YOURE BREAKING THE CAMERA” as the video abruptly ends

for anyone who wants to see more stuff like this, you can probably find clips of it on YouTube. it came from a show called “Wonder Showzen” and it’s responsible for these gems, too:

“I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.”

– Vincent Van Gogh. Artwork by Ian Anastas.

This piece is not meant to romanticize suicide or trivialize mental illness. In the artist’s own words “Van Gogh, and really anyone who struggles with mental illness, thrive and create in spite of their illness and not as a result of it. I admire Van Gogh for this reason. He strove forward to realize his vision while his very thoughts and perceptions betrayed him. This would take unimaginable courage. I am not trying to romanticize his illness in this image. I am trying to show my admiration for him as a person. Mental illness is a very real thing and I believe it should be openly discussed. I also believe we should make art about it. Those who suffer and struggle with it, and strive forward for the sake of themselves, their families, their passions, those individuals I will gladly romanticize as heroes.”

Why is everyone so quick to judge drug addicts ? Do you have any idea how depressed or sad you have to be to rely on drugs everyday to take away your pain?

[bobbyrotten]

RIGHT?
