Too easy, Miss California. Just too. fucking. easy. And down you go with your nude photos, ten toy soldiers all in a row. I can’t wait to see what Gallagher’s got up her Wal-Mart blazered sleeve. (@popcrunch)

from Alex: Hey look! It’s paint that makes your wall into a dry-erase board! I think I’m way too excited about this. (from Effektive, who is an amazing designer by the way. Check out his stuff while you’re meandering.)
from Crystal: Work became a lot more fun since being shown the Jack Kerouac Electronic Poetry Kit. I just wrote a masterpiece Louis Armstrong and meticulous self-indulgence. The site also has poetry kits from Plath, Burroughs, Ginsberg etc, and even Morrisey.
