Gallery Mondays: Roberto Fabelo’s ‘Éxtasis de la Carne Huidiza’
I don’t have allergies, but a lot of people I live and work around do, so some mornings I wake up feeling like this woman in Roberto Fabelo’s ‘Éxtasis de la Carne Huidiza’—minus the pigs on her face. No swine flu is catching this chick a week before her birthday. I saw this painting in…

Gallery Mondays: ‘Olsen Twins Hiding From the Paparazzi’
On Friday I went to check out the Olsen Twins Hiding from the Paparazzi exhibit by THNK1994. It was awesome. So awesome I wished I had gone to the opening night. The paintings were done by Laura Collins, who can’t tell the Olsen twins apart, especially when they’re covering their faces from the paparazzi, so none…

Fan Art Fridays: Gilmore Girls
Yesterday, PopSugar released an article detailing the full cast of the Gilmore Girls revival on Netflix and I couldn’t be more excited! I feel so old when I think about the last episode that aired back in 2007. I don’t even really remember much of the finale, so I’ll have to re-watch a couple of episodes from…
