Scott Pilgrim vs. the Link Dump
Pinky Diablo – Artist who turns silverplate spoons into skulls. More examples here.
Funeral Cakes – These are…odd.
Eggs with Legs – A whole passel of teeny baby tarantulas.
Dork Tower – This one made me cackle.
Spiderweb Potholders – Easy tutorial for strip-piecing potholders that look like spiderwebs.
Against Happiness: In Praise of Melancholy – An alternative to the slew of “how to be happy all the time” self-help books on the market, this book argues that melancholia is a necessary ingredient for creativity. Might be a useful book to pull out next time somebody accuses you of being too emo.

As a writer, and the wife of a moody artist, I well know the value of melancholy. In the immortal words of Captain Kirk, “I need my pain!”

Against Happiness is excellent. Melancholy can be leavening.
