It's probably been two years since I first read a blog post about unplugged weddings. Most recently, this one from Corey Ann photography crossed my path. Even as a fully-wired child of the internet, I wholeheartedly agree with the idea of an unplugged wedding and I...

What do you think of this launch video?

Do you ever feel pressure to be original? If I can be frank, I'm kind of sick of that word...original. There's so much pressure to summon the muse, to conjure from nothing groundbreaking thoughts and sights. I call BS. If these are examples of plagiarism, then we want...

Seriously. How gorgeous is this cleaver from Seth Gould. Inspiration is everywhere.

Have you ever noticed how powerful the effect of scent is? It's amazing, the memories and feelings a certain scent can elicit. My morning routine would be all together disquieting without the comforting aromatic melange of coffee and nag champa incense. A scent can...

You know what? You're pretty hip. You're what "experts" call an "early adopter" and I think that's pretty cool. That's why we now accept Bitcoin as a way to pay for your custom wedding invitations and stationery. There are all sorts of great reasons to use Bitcoin...

Please go read this and come back and tell me: Do you find this inspirational? Horrifying? Absurd? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this intersection of fashion, art, and body modification.

I intended to simply post a link to this short read, but I think there's some deep irony in that in which I can't abide. The questions were short and the answers nearly as short. And it ended with this: Why are your responses so brief? If I had worked less diligently...
