Dance for me, tiny naked bus driver!
I made you a tiny naked bus driver! That spins!
(I was at this very useful artists’ reference site, and turns out I simply cannot look at sequential images without itching to cut them together into an animated .gif file).
Anyway, who thought “seated nude with arms in robot position” was going to be wildly helpful to anyone?
Have a good weekend! Or, you know, you could hang around here and watch the tiny naked robot-arm-chair guy go ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round…

Not exactly “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf”
Uncle B says, “what are you going to post about tonight?” And I’m, like, “pff! I dunno. I’ve posted Kim Jong-il twice. Maybe I’ll just make it Kim Jong-il Week!”
So there you have it. That’s where posts come from.
It’s the Holidays. I’m going to be a complete waste of skin from now until after the New Year.
That’s my solemn promise to you.

Barack O’Baby
Hoo boy! Did this article ever get on my tits.
“I took a different path. And as Michelle reminds me, ‘You volunteered for this thing’.”
Poor baby.
That’s a weird tic. Is that a weird tic? Talking so much about how Michelle fusses at him? I guess the other presidents mentioned their wives a lot, but Michelle always plays the part of the Presidential Scolder in Chief.
She must be riding up on him like somebody else’s thong.
Oh, but the best is right at the end. When asked if he considered not running again, he said “no”:
“Not because our quality of life might not be better if I were not president. Not because Michelle is so enamoured with me being president. But because we both think that what we’re doing is really important for a lot of people”
Seriously. His quality of life. Really, he’s gritting his teeth and enduring the fleet of jets and the military escort and the staff and the house and the golf and the dinners and the little tune they play just for him when he walks into a room. And he’s doing it for us.
God, what a time to have a rotten Republican field.

Faceplant the Fox
Flipping through the Telegraph this morning, I ran across this great sequence of photos by wildlife photographer Richard Peters. It’s a fox pouncing on a mouse under the snow.
I thought it cried out to be stitched together into an animation. Click the picture to see the animated version. I think you’ll agree with me.
That, no. On second thought, it didn’t cry out to be an animation at all.
Good weekend, everyone!

Night of the nekkid lady
Tonight was the last night of my life drawing class. Sorry for the bad cellphone pic, but this is as close as you’re getting to this sucker.
Eh. It’s okay if you stand back here and squint. I was seated in a tough spot, with an unfortunate compositional hand/tit convergence, but there was no room to move my setup once I saw the pose.
Moar practice. I’ve already signed up for the next series in the new year.
Anyhoo. Late. Gotta run.

Um, what?
Sometimes I get an image stuck in my head and I can’t rest until I put it on paper (or electrons, as the case may be). It’s like an itch.
Of course, that usually means it’s somebody else’s picture I’ve seen before and I’m stealing it.

Butt-crack daisy
I’m going to be the #1 Google hit for “butt-crack daisy” or my name isn’t Seraphina Terwilliger Weasel. (Original photo is a Man Ray).
I’m not yet. Feh. Google used spider me in really fast, back in the day.
Interesting…when I did a search of “butt-crack daisy” (only when it’s punctuated exactly like that), a notice appears at the bottom of the search listings: In response to a legal request submitted to Google, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read more about the request at ChillingEffects.org.
At the link: Child Pornography Complaint to Google. The cease-and-desist or legal threat you requested is not yet available. (Child pornography butt-crack daisy. Oh, let’s not dwell on that, ‘K?)
That Chilling Effects site is interesting, though. From my quick trawl, it looks like they’re gathering cease-and-desist letters and linking them up to FAQs. Cool.
Anyway, I just can’t deal with politics at the moment. Sorry. Between the presidential hoo-ha in the States and all the crap about Greece and the Euro, current events at the moment is like a great hooting of spider monkeys.

No. No, no, no.
I can’t possibly vote for Newt. His face is too small. That little pinched face all scrunched up in the middle of that big head. Oh, no.
Also, Newt Gingrich. When he was a thing, my shirts had shoulder pads. I am not going back to that place.
Also, “Newt.” Jesus. Dude’s name is Newton Leroy.
Newton Leroy. Willard Mitt. Barack Hussein. Criminy buckets, what’s gone screwy with American politics?
How about — Vote for Herman Cain. He doesn’t even have a middle name.

Twinkle on, you crazy minions!
Okay, because I love you guys, and because I sold you short last night, I made you a toy to play with. Yes I did!
I made two new emoticons for use in the comments, the twinkle and the down-twinkle. Apparently, when hippies congregate in large groups and struggle to make decisions, they wiggle their fingers at each other to signal approval or disapproval. No lie.
Here, I’ll let this young lady explain.
I didn’t actually call the emoticons twinkle and down-twinkle, because I’d have to tinker with the WP code (something I wouldn’t mind doing, except I’d have to REdo it every time I patched WordPress), I piggy-backed two existing built-in emoticons instead.
To invoke the twinkle, type the word “shock” with a colon on either side, or make a ‘shock’ face with an 8 followed by a capital O.
To invoke the down-twinkle, type the word “eek” with a colon on either side, or make an ‘eek’ face with a : followed by a lowercase o.
There ya go, wingnuts! Happy disapproving of stuff!

We are all Meghan McCain
I love making fun of Meghan McCain. It’s so pleasantly guilt-free.
Normally, I would feel kind of sorry for anyone so badly and publicly used. Meghan’s friends in the media only love her because she is Republican and deliciously stupid. It is a signal characteristic of stupid people that they are too stupid to realize they’re stupid (really. There’s been science and stuff).
But Meghan pushes herself out there hard, and then is too stupid to realize it makes her a public figure. Fair game. Ripe for the ridiculing.
If you didn’t read Red State’s hilarious McCain parody, there are bits of it left here. Unfortunately, the context is a take-down letter from her lawyer.
This law blog has a most enjoyable (read: bitchy) post on why Meghan’s complaint is bogus and what to do about it.
Short answer: MOAR RIDICULE!
