Blip! The ultimate concert for those of us who like 2-D videogames.

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

Are any of you New York types planning to attend the Blip Festival this weekend? I’m probably stuck at home, but they said I could give away a pair of passes if I tell folks about the show.

New Socks for Pre-Order!

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

We weren’t 1,000,000% sure these were gonna be in for Christmas, but Carrie of Sock It To Me sent over samples of both my new sock designs and I got them this morning. Color me psyched! As long as things go normally, these little fellers will be in my warehouse and shipping the week of [...]

Proud Papa of a Baconbot

I thought of it, Cloud drew it, Kurt printed it and Mer photographed it. I am the proud papa of a BaconBot t-shirt with a heaping helping of gorgeous silver ink.

Roomba Drivers and Kitty Pilots

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

Have you seen the Roomba driver cat video yet? Odds are good you have, because I keep getting emails and Tweets about it!

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Apologies for the minimal blogging and slowness with pixel portraits lately, some utterly immovable Christmas related deadlines have kicked my ass recently! I’ve got five new shirts and tote bags lined up for next week. I’m optimistic again lately and hope these designs reflect it.
Response to the kitten DVDs has been amazing! I’m ordering up [...]

Now I.T. Can Be Told

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

An email and a Tweet this morning have confirmed that my “Music I Used to Like” elitism diagram shirt *should* appear on the I.T. Crowd on UK Channel 4 this fall.
There’s apparently a trailer/teaser running and it shows up on Roy. I don’t have a link to any online video yet, but damned if I [...]

The Wonderful World of Kittens

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

I love kittens. I loves ‘em so much that when I saw this DVD, I had to purchase an entire CASE of them so that I might share them with all you lovely kitten fans. $15 gets you 45 minutes of uninterrupted KITTEN ACTION and two free pixel kitty buttons.
Clicky clicky the Diesel Sweeties Kittens [...]

I saw this Bush/Obama photo today and couldn’t help but also see DRACULA.

Indie Rock the Vote

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

Whatever side you’re on, Indie Rock Pete is against it. I used this title back in 2004, tonight seemed like a fine day to use it again.
I wanted the gooniest face possible on the cover of Clango’s pamphlet, so I did it myself! Forgive the lighting, I live in a cave.
