Pulp, sacrilege, eeriness and absurdity. Elsewhere: Ocular Canticle - art and photography I find fascinating, though not always beautiful. Needle's Eye - Despite the fact that we need another fashion blog like we need another hole in the ozone.

On hiatus here, but posting regularly at Uranium Geraniums. A little raunchier and more garish but essentially the same. Come join me there :-)

Hey, where can I get one of those themes where EVERY post I make, even if it's a reblog of someone else's work, redirects to MY tumblr page, where you cannot view a larger version or be linked back to a credited source? I need this kind of tumblr, because I'm a shithead.

MODERN LIVING IS A SERIES OF FLOUNDERING STRUGGLES AGAINST IMPOSSIBLY STRONG CURRENTS, SUBMERGING OUR BETTER NATURES BENEATH FRENZIED WAVES OF OPPRESSION AND DISILLUSIONMENT. EVEN WHEN WE MANAGE, SO INFREQUENTLY, TO STAY AFLOAT, THE CLAMOR OF FOOLISH VOICES, THE TUMULTUOUS HOWLS OF THE WEAK, AND THE MONOTONOUS DRONE OF THE POWERS THAT BE ARE ALL BOUND UP TOGETHER IN A UNIFIED, UNCEASING TONE THAT BEATS UPON THE EARDRUMS EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY, EVEN IN SLUMBER.

AND THAT’S WHY I DRINK JULIUS KESSLER’S FINE AMERICAN WHISKEY. IT’S “SMOOTH AS SILK” AND TASTES GREAT BEFORE OR AFTER NOON!

DO BE DO BE DOOOOO.

LA LA LA.

Keepers at the Zoo at Chessington World of Adventures Resort were delighted to welcome their latest arrival - a pink toed tarantula. The youngster - the first ever baby tarantula bred at the Surrey resort - was born this week after spending the last eight weeks in an egg sac with around 200 siblings - and was the first to emerge, just in time for National Insect Week (25 June-1 July 2012).
