The mural that was created after a series of arsons in Greenwood has a new home. Now that the Taproot Theater has their new building, the mural has been repurposed into the back wall for Naked City’s new outdoor beer garden. And if you notice, from first installation (top photo, June 4) to just over a week later (bottom photo, June 14) the mural has actually been extensively repainted.

This is my big, public thank you to my little witchy sister. We’re going to see NIN in November at the Key Arena in Seattle. Bless her determined and fast fingers which got tickets before the nin.com site crashed due to the massive influx of pre-sale traffic yesterday.
Don’t let his dapper appearance fool you. Even when sharply-dressed Dread Cthulhu is still an ancient creature of unfathomable evil.
This awesome Cthulhu mask was created by Montreal-based artist and fabricator Ian Langohr.
If you’re curious how one might go about making a mask such as this, you’re in luck! Ian made a sped-up video of the process for his Zombie Cat Mask.

A recent visitor to the Goddess Temple dedicated to Sekhmet (one of my fave places) got this short video of a young bobcat drinking out of a water bowl at the temple space.

Gaze into the Mirror of Erised with us, study up on your potions and charms, and watch out for You-Know-Who when we make magic on June 28 & 29 at the Annex!
I’m going to this.
Steampunk Hootenanny fashions. I’ve decided that so many people have goggles that I need to get some antique glasses and have them re-lensed so I can veer off-trend a bit.
Port Townsend, WA the weekend of June 7-9.
I’m so glad someone else takes the time to work out all these details so I don’t have to do the research and can just enjoy it.
My white strawberries are doing awesome this year!
When an alien facehugger attacks you, it clamps a vaginal opening to your face and then puts a phallic protrusion down your throat. Which then implants an embryo in your chest which will kill you when it “hatches” and bursts out.
That underside view is the stuff of last-thing-you-saw nightmares. Game over indeed.

Is it just me or does this look like the Nanny and the Harvard Hottie turned into a hipster couple as they got older? Think they have a precious little snowflake of their own at home now?
I got this flag/banner many years ago and whenever I go camping at festivals and gatherings, it is hung from or nearby my tent.
Fabulous June wagashi, from Tokara in Seattle.
“Her seizures have dropped from 1,200 a month to three, and the ones she has are shorter in duration and less severe. She’s off all the other medications with their troubling side effects. And, as one of the youngest medical marijuana patients in Colorado, her dramatic turnaround is starting to draw national attention, with a CNN report on the horizon.”
Low-THC, high-CBD is what is working for this little girl. Imagine who else could be helped if only this medicine could be used someplace other than Colorado…
