The Art of Darkness

Zounds! It’s Another Week of Link Dumps

August 10th, 2015 by Cobwebs

A commenter once asked how I manage to find all of the stuff for these link dumps. I believe that the most succinct answer is, “Because I spend too damn much time online.”

Andrew Eldritch Interview – A “classic interview” which claims to be the source of all the Sisters of Mercy goth jokes.

The Birthday Skeleton – This comic about a Tooth Fairy-esque nocturnal visitor is sublime. (via Pixel Pixie)

Thick and Thin Designs – Etsy shop specializing in reusable acrylic cupcake toppers, such as ravens, zombies, and tentacles.

Death in the Afternoon – Ernest Hemingway’s absinthe cocktail. (The article is a little old; “real” absinthe is now legal in the U.S.)

3Doodler – This is pretty neat. It’s a pen which lets you “draw” 3D shapes using heated plastic filaments.

The Ash – Lovely digital photo that appears to be burning roses. (Hat tip to Bruno)

Ten Epic DIY Halloween Decorations – This site and I have a difference of opinion on what qualifies as “epic,” but the snake wreath is cute.

Funko Munsters Figures – Funko is adding vinyl figures of Herman, Lily, Eddie, and Grandpa to its Pop! line.

Geek Chic Wedding – Some really cute wedding details, including lots of Harry Potter stuff. I particularly like the dragon “hoarding” the wedding cake.

Snakes Invade Great Moments in Art History – Series of paintings which add snakes to various classic works of art. I think “The Birth Of Snake Venus” is my favorite.

    I don’t know if I can take all this dumpin’ all at once. I just snorted my way through the Eldritch interview. Note to self: when playing the game which celebrity would you invite to dinner, do not select this guy unless you want to just look at him… which circa 1989 isn’t so bad to do ;)

    The Birthday Skeleton… this is going to need to become my new Happy Birthday Facebook message from now on. Thank you!

    Off to continue clickin’…
