SPANTS SPANTS SPANTS
The Sims 3 and Spike

Oh, Sims 3. I’m a world-famous vampire murderess, but what winds up labeling me “publicly disgraced” is a child born out of wedlock? Really?

Funnily enough, I sued the rumormonger for slander, and WON. I like to imagine me bouncing my little bastard on my hip during proceedings.

“A child out of wedlock, your honor!? It’s offensive! it’s INSULTING! I demand compensat- hold on, diaper change. Hey, can I pump in here?”

The nice thing about the “tsunami skeptics” that are popping up is that they prove, for some, no amount of evidence will EVER be enough.

Some think the tsunami effects are exaggerated/faked. That rush of bile in your throat? Identical to what I feel w/moon landing skeptics.

THOSE SCENES OF UTTER DEVASTATION ARE JUST TOO CLEAN. PHOTOSHOP!!!!

Spike’s subconscious hates her

Wow, thanks for that incredibly realistic “My husband is slowly dying of a terrible degenerative disease” dream, brain.

I dunno which part I like best, the part where we planned his funeral or when he was too weak to comfort me during my horrible crying jags.

The final flourish? The absurdist last scene when docs discovered his disease was due to drinking outta a can cozy printed with 1s and 0s.

See, that nerdy decorative patten was deprogramming his brain. If he stopped, he might get better. Dig the symbolism outta THAT one, world.

RuPaul’s Drag Race

Oh my goooooooood Shangela GO HOME GO HOME GO HOME#rupaulsdragrace

Your dress, holy shit WTF, RuPaul obviously inexplicably loves you and that is the only reason you have survived this long #rupaulsdragrace

PS a rhinestone skeleton arm necklace? I♥U Raja, took me a while to warm up to your queen bee ‘tude/ genederfuck look, tho #rupaulsdragrace

Please knock off the “Heathers” thing, it makes me want to punch you out, bitchy high school girl antics are not rad.#rupaulsdragrace

Today in “How outta touch ARE print cartoonists?” Scott Adams compares women to children and the mentally handicapped.

Not ALL women, just the ones annoyed by inequality. Ignore their whining, advises Scott! Cuz there’s just no reasoning with ‘em. ( o_o)-b

Hey Scott, when did Dave Sim let you out of the the couch cushion fort?! By GOD, get on that saucepan helmet, there are COOTIES out here!

LED Shirts

Why don’t I like light-up shirts/shirts with LEDs? I mean just across the board don’t like them. I usually don’t care what people wear, but.

The simple answer is “They look cheesy,” but WHY do I think they look cheesy? THIS OPINION MUST BE EXAMINED.

why do you think Spike hates LED shirts so much?

This title was going to reference the band The Pretenders, but I don’t know any pretenders songs

Scripting Poorcraft, reading about pretenders. Pretenders are claimants to abolished/occupied royal thrones. I find ‘em curiously funny/sad.

Like the squabbling Russian houses, for example. One claimant is supposedly disqualified, because she’s the result of a morganatic marriage.

That’s a marriage between two people of uneven social rank. Yes, the make-believe royal houses of Russia actually care about this. Amazing.

“YOU can’t be heir, your mom didn’t have a inherited title stripped of its wealth, power and meaning like MINE did!”

Funny. But also sinister. Pretenders are lying in wait, hoping things get just fucked up enough that the people consider monarchies again.

And cuz I’m a media casualty, I just picture them all pouting and stomping around, screaming at you to not WAKE THE DRAGON. #gameofthrones

I Am So Gonna Marry A White Girl

April’s NatGeo has a page on interracial marriage. Something like 15% of new marriages are interracial. And here I thought I was special!

But black/white marriages are still at 1in 60, and black women are the least likely to intermarry. SO I AM STILL A RARE AND PERFECT FLOWER.

Gonna have a million pretty lil’ cafe au lait babies and do my part to gutstab your neat little heuristic pigeonholes, America. ( o_o)-b

Newt Gingrich fears America may become an “atheist country… dominated by radical Islamists.” Go ahead and savor that.

So uh hey America if you’re sick of having an eloquent, moving and inspiring public speaker for president, here’s your chance I guess

Yes he says painfully idiotic shit on a regular basis, but man I totally bet you could have a BEER with him, better let him run the country

(Ha ha just kidding guys Newt Gingrich is a fucking millionaire, he would never ever ever drink with you)

So on Tuesday I rage spiraled into space for a while when I was told that Todd Goldman was ripping off my designs AGAIN.
I know my designs are simple and play on ideas we all understand but the fact is Goldman offered me a job in 2006.  He said he loved my Threadless shirts, that he bought a Lil Soap shirt  and wanted me to work for him. I told him I would think about it and we  never spoke again. A few months later I get links from people to David and Goliath  tees, the company he owns and he is selling rip offs of my designs.
So  Threadless got their lawyers involved and sent him a cease and desist  and eventually, (probably because he was also being sued by ANOTHER artist at the time: http://tinyurl.com/5ubyu7o ) he took them down. Now he is selling them again, as you can see in  the above image.
Then as always, whenever I talk about my shirts  being ripped off I get emails telling me about more rip offs. This time  an Etsy user, Tyneshia Buie who straight up TRACED the design.
I’ve  had my shirts ripped off A LOT, Forever 21, Hot  Topic, Wet Seal, and every time it gives me insane stomach ulcers and I have to  track down the thieving “designers” and send Cease and Desist messages  and contact Threadless and lawyers. It’s called protecting your  copyright and it’s AWFUL HARD.
At any rate, this Etsy seller was selling the most blatant straight up TRACE of my art work I have ever seen. I got some help from some nice twitter  people and the design was removed from the site, but not the seller. As  you can see in the image above she isn’t oblivious or ashamed, she knew  what she was doing.
The point is that art theivery is fucking  bullshit. No one should buy from this girl again, or Todd Goldman/David  and Goliath but they do! I’m sure that Etsy user will continue to steal  and D+G has merchandise in every major crap store in the world. Help me  spread the word that these people are VILLAINS and not in a cool way.

Hot Topic rip off and Goldman’s rip off painting of my Lil’ Soap shirt:http://youthoughtwewouldntnotice.com/blog3/?p=861
The completely unashamed Etsy thief Tyneshia Buie’s store:http://www.etsy.com/people/glitterbiscuits
My original designs on Threadless: http://www.threadless.com/profile/145276/finkenstein
As for me, I am sending Cease and Desist messages and contacting lawyers and bathing in a see of stomach acid as I rage spiral into space.

Reblogging because this crap is heinous. If you see this shirt and it’s not via threadless, let Jess Fink or Threadless know.
