NOW IS THE TIME TO PRE-ORDER THE SHADOW CABINET
My friends, the time is here. I have signed the books, and they now sit in boxes, waiting for YOU. And I CREATED some items as well that you get as GIFTS for pre-ordering. I can now SHARE with you some images of the things you will GET when you pre-order. These are DESIGN IMAGES. We will soon have…
I’ll tell you what’s wrong with this picture: assumption.
This picture has gone viral as thousands of people deliver searing indictments of both smartphones and teens.
I’ve met a couple of teens. I’ve had a couple smartphones. Could these teens be playing Angry Birds or texting stupid jokes to each other? Yeah, they could.
But they could also be googling provenance for that painting or taking a second to text a friend about how amazing the museum is or completing an assignment given off-screen by someone standing just beside the photographer. They could be taking notes about the palette choice so that later they turn into a generation of artists that take your breath away.
What’s wrong with this picture? Nothing, until proven otherwise. Welcome to 2014.
Banana Guard Academy Finale
Kent Osborne and Mad Rupert’s Banana Guard Academy series from kaboom! wraps up its six-issue arc with the release of today’s No. 6, available at your nearby quality comic book store or BOOM!’s online shop.
In this sixth and final issue, the terrible evil threatening Candy Kingdom will finally be released into Ooo, knocking the Banana Guards out of commission! It’s up to our favorite group of rag-tag cadets to save the day and hopefully get the opportunity to graduate.

I wish my keyboard only had sixteen keys on it too.
Just like the past two years (2012, 2013) I have made a giant poster sized image containing all of the thumbnails from every video submitted as part of the Project for Awesome.
I am so proud of the Nerdfighter community for raising over 1.1 million dollars this year, and I can’t wait to see which charities will be receiving this money!
Amazing job everyone, looks like nobody forgot to be awesome.
The full sized version of the image can be found here. Be warned, it is almost 70MB.
These are so fantastic. I have mine from last year. (=

I was looking at things I’ve liked on Pinterest in the past, and this was in there. It is beautiful.
