Old people who don't give a fuck
Nobody can deny that these two tiny words have the power to make or break things. Shit and Fuck are usually associated with anger or dismay but here you will find that these two profanities will delight you and even make you want to dance. Really? Yes really! Mauro Gatti an artist and accomplished illustrator originally from Italy now residing in lovely Los Angeles, stated that he wanted to celebrate these common curse words ever since moving. Gatti along with his talented motion designer friend, Stefano made immortal art pieces from the two words, so that you all can celebrate them as well! Mauro Gatti Celebrate shit with a big bright poo! Mauro Gatti Celebrate fuck with a happy erecting condom! Mauro Gatti Now. All together now!
Celebrate life with a big bright poo!

Visualize Your Next Job With Delavis
Delavis is a job discovery community sharing new employment opportunities.
As a creative and positive person, I truly believe everyoneĀ wants to enjoy life to the fullestĀ but in order to achieve this we need to find some form of balance between work and play. Finding the right job at the right time of life, can seem like a difficult task so how do you keep up to date with the latest opportunities.Ā
From time to time, I keep an eye out for interesting job offerings from Startups because they can give a fantastic insight into where a young company is in their journey. If your a Startup you'll know, understanding the path of others has many benefits.Ā
Commonly a job search experience includes encountering jobs that don't quite fit our skill set but maybe more suited to somebody we know such as a friend, family member or colleague. However, unfortunately because of the unattractive way that job sharing is delivered acrossĀ social news feeds, it makes sharing quality jobs an ugly experience.Ā
A standard job preview shared to Facebook.
Fantastic opportunity from David Ricke over @ Atlassian via LinkedIn's standard formatting wall feed preview.Ā
So how do new Startups visually attract talent and influence social engagement? To find out I'mĀ putting together thisĀ groupĀ using Make Shift's linkydink tool and I am inviting you all to joinĀ so we can discuss a better way to on-share jobs in a social environment.
I've listed jobs from some of the most common StartupsĀ but feel free to list any quality job offering. Please note, we understand linkydink doesn't actually allow anyone to upload images, so testing will be purely URL based until the V2 active MVP is announced.Ā
Absolutely anyone can subscribe to the daily digest hereĀ and of course weĀ would love to see link contributions so please feel free to email me @ [email protected]. You can also follow us here on twitter
āMean Kids Become Demonic in Beautiful Anti-Bullying RPG
If youāve ever been teased, it can seem like the human beings making your life miserable are monsters. The developers behind an in-development anti-harassment game are getting literal with that feeling, turning the bullies in Sumoboy into actual demons.

SumoBoy: The Game That Takes Aim at Bullying
a Sydney-based global development studio called TAPRR, and its method has the potential to reach many. The team is making a game called SumoBoy ā on its surface, a fun adventure game about a boy saving a magical world, but dig a little deeper and the game will deliver, the team hopes, a powerful anti-bullying message, with the help of anti-bullying advocates such as spoken-word poet Shane Koyczan, who has written and voiced the gameās narration, and anti-bullying organization Angels Goal.
"The entire team at TAPRR have been victims of bullying and something that is only just starting to happen in video games now is that developers are using games as a tool to send a message; think The Last of Us with a female (Ellie) being the main protagonist," producer Rob Salha told CNET. "We wanted to do the same thing (sending a positive message) and produce not only a fun game but a game that made you think after you had put the controller down."
The game, which has been in development for a year, centres around Oji, an orphan boy who is routinely bullied at school, but nevertheless manages to remain kind and compassionate. One day, he discovers that his mother is the Princess of the Elements, Kesa, from the magical land of Seishin ā and that his homeland is in peril. Kesa has been kidnapped and held prisoner by Kurai Kami, and itās up to Oji to rescue Seishin using his Sumo powers and his Blade of Balance.
Itās a familiar story for video games ā well, it works ā and the style is a rather lavishly coloured isometric world, but itās not, Salha clarified, your standard hack-n-slash, instead being rooted in the teamās own personal experiences of bullying, such as that of the gameās lead designer, Henry Walsh.
"It is stories like these that really fuel us to try to give people a voice, as cliché as that sounds," Salha said. "Also, we know how sensitive bullying is right now and it is a BIG challenge to balance this topic in a video game⦠but it is a challenge we are willing to accept. We know we are going to spark debate and that is a good thing. Even reading some of the comment sections of where our article has been posted, there seems to be a misunderstanding of what bullying actually is."
And thatās what SumoBoy wants to change ā although one could argue that a video game that involves using violence to defeat foes might not be the best way to send that message.
The team, however, has thought of that too.
"Is the gameās message that fighting back is the solution to bullying? In a short answer, no," Salha explained. "Though, through the game, Oji does fight enemies, not a single one of the ābulliesā in the game is actually defeated by fighting. There seems to be a misconception regarding the trailer and the scene of the bullies turning into demons. In the game, Ojiās bullies do not become demons that he then fights. Oji travels to the spirit world in the game and fights evil spirits. Without giving too much away, the monstrous bullies in the trailer are part of an illusion, like a dream sequence."
In fact, Salha, elaborated, not a single one of the gameās boss bullies can be taken down by fighting.
"One enemy, for example, in the Water Realm is a giant catfish spirit, the spirit is creating earthquakes that are threatening a village," he said. "This boss cannot be overcome with violence. It is too big and too powerful. Instead, Oji must find another way, and he learns that the "bully" is actually causing trouble because Kurai Kamiās minions have taken over its nest. This is a metaphor that represents that sometimes bullies arenāt bad people, they are dealing with problems and just lashing out."
And, while Oji is the star of the gameās Kickstarter campaign, the game will have a lot more to offer, with Salha hinting at, but not confirming, cooperative multiplayer.
"We really had to hold ourselves back with our trailer," he said. "We have so much more to say and show, but we wanted to introduce Oji first."
You can support the project and reserve a copy of the game for PC, Mac, Linux and mobile for a minimum pledge of AU$12 on Kickstarter. Head over to the SumoBoy Kickstarter campaign to check it out.

SumoBoy: A Video Game Against Bullying
SumoBoy: A Video Game AgainstĀ Bullying
I pride myself on being hysterical. According to me, Iām funny all the time. Perhaps if you ask other people they would say differently. I used that humor as a way to cope with getting bullied in school. Unfortunately it is a common danger all children face, and itās only getting more violent.
I have a cousin who is in her teens; she, as far as I know, has never dealt with any major bullying.ā¦

Hey so, another Kickstarter here which I feel needs some love (so LONG POST, sorry); this is SumoBoy by TAPRR.Ā SumoBoy is in development for the Mac, Windows and Linnux with goals to get onto the PS4 if the goal of $400, 000 is met (itās initial stretch goal is $100, 000).Ā
Now I know it sounds expensive (it really is, looking at whoās involved and the graphics) but it holds a very important message; SumoBoy is apart of the Anti-Bullying movement.
Inspired by the emotions associated with bullying and the anti-bullying movement, SumoBoy aims to encourage players into finding their voice and standing up for themselves and others.
Set in a world inspired by Japanese mythology and folklore, you play as Oji, a young orphan boy who lives at an orphanage and endures bullying from the other children on a daily basis. But his life is turned upside-down when he discovers who his parents are; his long lost mother is Kesa, Princess of the Elements from the world of Spirits, Seishin (which means Soul), and his (sadly deceased) father is Otokoyama (literally Man Mountain), her Sumo Wrestler guardian.
Kesa appears to young Oji in a dream and asks her son to save Seishin from the evil shapeshifting spirit from the void known as Kurai Kami (I believe this means ādark, gloomy, to be ignorant, to be a stranger, sombreā and āgodā). Kurai Kami captured Kesa when Oji was a little baby and while Kesa has done her best to stop the evil spirit from getting his hands on the powerful elements, her power is waning and now Oji must rescue the elements from Kurai Kamiās grasp.
Oji must now travel through each elemental realm of Seishin and set things right. Can our young hero defeat the ultimate bully and heal the emotional and physical damage down to the Seishin? Can he help the poor spirits discover their true strength (as well as himself, being the heir to the elements) and can he convince others from damaging others? Only we can help him!
Inspired by games such as old school Legend of Zelda, Bastion and Diablo III, SumoBoy has two important weapons to help you during your journey into the game. First up, being the son of a famous Sumo wrestler, Oji can use Sumo skills inspired by real Sumo moves to help him progress through the game. These earth-moving skills can do things like defeat your enemies, help solve puzzles or break glass floors. Oji is also armed with a mystical sword known as the Hitoshi (which can translate as āhumanityā, āvirtue, benevolence, charity, man and kernelāā¦yeah I googled this oneā¦). Hitoshi has two modes; Hitoshi can be a weapon of destruction or it can dissolve your opponentās fears and win it to your cause. Boss battles are promised to be unique with combo moves tailored to each opponent and you will need to pay attention to your enemy in order to defeat it.
Now Iām not asking you to fund this (you donāt have to if you donāt want to) but I am asking you to at least spread the word of SumoBoy; the game currently has 33 days to raise a minimum of $100, 000 and it has an important message behind it. As someone who knows what it feels like to be bullied, this one is kinda important to me and I want to spread itās message around the internet.
