The True Taco Pizza: El Niño

A lot of gluttonous food posts are uninspired combinations of worn out equations.  Take [x] food and add bacon, then deep fry it, then stack, etc.  Every once in a while though, a true fatty (in size or in spirit)

The World’s Most Reliable News Source: Archived Weekly World News

[image via Fishbowl NY] I was absolutely devastated in 2007 when I found out that Weekly World News was closing up shop. Though it’s not quite the same, there is a bit of respite to be found in the fact

So Much for Neutrality: Zurich vs. Minarets

This poster is part of a Swiss People’s Party (SVP) campaign to ban the building of minarets in Zurich. It would be one thing if they were arguing by contrasting minarets and traditional architecture, but the the foreboding shadows, burqa,

The World’s Biggest Little Place: Miniatur Wunderland

When I found out about Miniatur Wunderland, the world’s largest model railroad, Hamburg, Germany immediately shot to the top of my places to visit list. My love of all things miniature (and all things huge) combined with my compulsion to

Spicy Backlog: ArtPrize

Limited internet access this summer in Morocco helped me rack up quite a list of blips I’ve been meaning to post on spicy.  I’d say it’s about time to clear them out.  Here we go: If only I was in

Harnessing the Power of 1000 Nosy Grandmas: Internet Eyes

I’m pretty sure I’m becoming numb to the advent of Orwellian predictions.  It seems like every time I blow through my RSS feeds I find at least one more scheme, device, or plot to add more little blinking lights to

Flight of the Rustbelt: Vacant Detroit

Having gone to school in Michigan only recently, this is, sadly, the only Detroit I have ever known. Irregardless, even in spite of its turbulence, Detroit is still a beautiful (in an often dystopic kind of way), fun place, if

The Impossible Decision: Last Suppers

“Last Supper” by James Reynolds. Hypothetically, I think my own would be a recreation of my family’s Good Friday feast: tuna salad, egg salad, eggplant parm, a cheese tray, elephant ears, and my grandma’s handmade “smashed” bread. Then again, a
