Die Mimik der Tethys (The Expressions of Tethys) is a high sea buoy (last was in Pinacoteca Agnelli, Turin, 2024), that is suspended in space and moves synchronously to another buoy in the Atlantic Ocean near Nantes. Continuously transmitting motion data via satellite to its relocated double, the information guides eight electric motors and cable winches, which precisely reproduce the buoy's movement in the ocean. The buoy functions as a hypnotising machine that inevitably leads to the idea of waves lapping around inside the exhibition space, creating an ocean in the minds of people.

Why can’t real life cities be 10 mile tall gothic metropolises with red and black and skulls and statues of weeping saints everywhere

Life-changing OCD hack is learning that you can literally call poison control to check if you fucked up and took medications wrong in a way that could kill you instead of having a panic attack while reading reddit and quora threads for an hour. They won't even be mad at you. Like obviously don't do it every day or something but genuinely you can do this if you need to

The fact that Fountain is pissing off trads over a 100 years later is so fucking funny

Netherworld Post was not on Tik Tok, but nothing happens in a vacuum. Especially nothing as large as a dominate media platform being (possibly, likely) being shut down in a major market.

So. While this does not affect me directly. I am preparing for aftershocks.

And maybe you should too!

I wrote a How to Make a Zine guide here.

Our "we are re-launching in the spring" e-mailing list is available here.

Netherworld Post is now my primary focus.

Cheers everyone.

via NYPost: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is preparing to launch a “big f–king operation” across sanctuary cities — including Chicago and New York — immediately after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, multiple sources told The Post.

Starting Jan. 21, multi-day “ground operations” will be launched across cities that have served as safe havens for migrants because the local authorities do not cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration issues, sources said.

In Chicago this is the Wasteshed!!

Suggestion of a crafting resource for people to look for in their communities because I didn't know it existed near me and others may not know to look for it!

There's a place in my town called a creative reuse center that is dedicated to reducing material waste and making art materials accessible to the community. The way it works at mine is they take material donations from customers but also from local businesses getting rid of excess materials and other stuff and sell it at a reduced cost. Here they sell some individually priced items, but most of it is by weight at $2/3 per pound. And literally it could be anything you may need for any type of project. There's fabric, yarn, thread, paining supplies, office supplies, old books and magazines for collaging, poster board, paper, and then just like random items that could be used in different projects like cds, corks, empty spools, cardboard tunes, leather, cigar boxes, literally anything.

I got all of this vintage tatting and mending thread (plus some dmc) for literally less than 50 cents the other day.

I saw someone recently who was a teacher walk out with four full grocery bags of crafting supplies for her students for about $40.

At this one they also host community events and classes which I haven't gotten the chance to attend yet but I'm looking forward to it!

Like I said this was something I didn't even know to look for until I came across it mostly by chance, so if you are looking to reduce your crafting waste by buying second hand or lower costs or looking to get rid of and donate some supplies maybe check to see it there's something like that near you!
