Some assembly required: Recipes that probably look a lot better then they will taste.

IKEA has released a baking book called 'Hembakat är Bäst' ('Homemade is Best'). Not to be confused with that Swedish porn movie by the same name.

It's about FFing time: Marijuana soda hits the market.

Man, I haven't been this thirsty since the invention of marijuana icecream. Well folks, at least I have a medical excuse to drink a few of these suckers a day. You see, when I was young I had to skip the 4th an 5th grade because, as the teacher put it, I was 'waaay too smart' (or was it 'smart-ass'?). Anyway, needless to say it all went downhill from there. Oh the pressure..  Since that day I felt the urge to redeem myself with some Puff The Magic Dragon.

I'm a calm and assertive Superhuman. That's why I love dogs (And they love me back by looking at me with popping eyes while they poop in front of my door). But in most Islamic cultures they are dispised.

And farther East they eat 40,000,000 of them every year (Shoa-huahua anyone?). Some people easily spent 300 bucks on their cat for whatever medical reason, while the same amount could feed a starving child for months. Yet they claim to care about the poor. The most vocal vegetarians seem oblivious to the fact that their furry friends collectively eat millions of small animals a year (not including the grind up meat these veggie owners feed their Fluffy and ChooChoo every day) - And why the fuck do we want to 'Free Willie' anyway?

This then, is essentially a book on why it's so hard to think "straight" about anything. A very funny, enlightening, impossible-to-put-down-book that reaches its magnificent climax in the last chapter. Herzog will NOT satisfy those who are locked into moral absolutes.

From the country that brought you questionable innovations such as Peaceful Military Interventions, Environmentally Unfriendly Bio-feuls, and Retarded Interpretations of Democracy, comes ..a really cool phone

Johns Phone
'John’s phone doesn’t have a screen, digital address book or any other features we got used to on modern cell phones. The only feature it has is voice communication. That’s it. With John’s Phone you are always available. No frills and useless information. John’s Phone keeps things simple'.

This is one of the most unique and imaginitive things I've ever seen. Since rehab.
Press play to be confused for the rest of the day

The Big Caption takes real news pictures and makes them irreverent, funny, NSFW, disturbing and sometimes briljant using just words and typography.



The Coen Brothers made a movie out of Charles Portis' novel. It looks haunted and beautiful
..and The Dude is in it

Huge, no.. GIANT soap bubbles making me all misty eyed

This is what Dali's crap would look like after a hearty meal. Microscope images of insect eggs

They look like works of art or photos documenting the discovery of some strange new tropical plants'. 

Culture is not your friend

Everyone is running around saying “change change change” but on the other hand there is a curious sense in which things have become eerily dreamlike and still, while we just teeter on the edge of the end of history; and the same personalities, the same design elements, everything has looked the same in the galleries for twenty years. There is this eerie suspension..


The real ‘Secret‘ is Terence McKenna’s entire legacy of eliquently spoken words. But only for those who are brave enough to listen to him with an open mind.

Aloe Blacc - I Need A Dollar
You can always count on HBO to make a kick-ass intro. I love this show. The whole thing just feels authentic.

Hey, buddy! C’mere!

Comedy Central listed him as 19th in their show ‘100 Greatest Stand-ups of All Time’. The Guardian once ran a story on Bill Hicks, reporting that “Indeed far from fading away, as most comics tend to do, he was becoming a bigger star with each passing year.



Bill Hicks was never one to mince words, and this 1989 taping at the “Laugh Stop” in Austin, TX. is certainly no exception. In this set, Bill touches on several issues from smoking, to drugs, to religion, to pornography, to musical pop culture.  This was Bill at the height of his career. He was exceedingly vibrant and full of life.  


Thanks to Bill’s friend Kevin Booth, we now have this as a piece of his lasting legacy.
