At Last! Your Death Acceptance Reading List<\/a> – A great roundup of “deathy” books from Order of the Good Death. (Hat tip to Bruno)<\/i><\/p>\n

Temple of R’lyeh Cookie Jar<\/a> – Stunning hand-made pottery jar.<\/p>\n

Medical Gross Out<\/a> – The Distillations<\/i> podcast did an episode featuring the “scarier (and squirmier) side of science.”<\/p>\n

Artifacts for the Afterlife<\/a> – Some interesting photos of gravestones embellished with colored glass, seashells, and other oddments. (Hat tip to pdq)<\/i><\/p>\n

Alternate Universe What Ifs<\/a> – xkcd’s Randall Munroe has a wonderful ongoing series called What If?<\/a> in which he answers various off-the-wall questions with science (his book<\/a> is great, too). His most recent column is What Ifs from an alternate universe, and they sound like a Night Vale episode.<\/p>\n

A Graphic Guide to Cemetery Symbolism<\/a> – Atlas Obscura has a handy chart for deciphering the meanings of graveyard symbols.<\/p>\n

Anatomy Ukulele<\/a> – Ukulele painted with the cutest li’l internal organs you’ll see all day.<\/p>\n

Vampire Bat Vase<\/a> – I adore both this vase and the floral arrangement within. (Black callas<\/a>, incidentally, are easy to grow.) (Hat tip to Pixel Pixie)<\/i><\/p>\n

Skulls and Skeletons in Fashion<\/a> – Large photo dump of skeletal clothing and accessories.<\/p>\n

Karen Aida<\/a> – Ravelry designer offering neat knit sock patterns that look like ants, biohazard symbols, and obscene gestures (although not all at once). I think my favorite is, “Rock Me, Armadillos.” (via Cat)<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
