MadPax – Attractive backpacks and bags that look like they’re covered with spikes.

Bedtime Stories for Children You Hate – A collection of short stories with titles like, “Your Upstairs Neighbor Kills People” and “No, It Isn’t Just the Wind.” (The Kindle version is currently free.)

Goths Up Trees – Goths. Trees. Up. (via Cat)

Aliens on Ice – This needs a world tour, stat. Includes video.

Digital Meltd0wn – Blog which aims to “introduce the readers to music that is out of print, commercially unavailable, released under a creative commons license, or with approval by the featured artist.” They have lots of interesting categories, like Horror Soundtrack, H.P. Lovecraft, and Avant-garage.

Tightrope Walker – The Bloggess gives me new appreciation for one of the “stretching photos” in the Haunted Mansion.
