Next Tuesday, August 24, I will be in up in New York for the Idol Explosion Summer 2010 show at Death by Audio in Brooklyn. I will be there representing SUPER ART FIGHT. I’m going to be doing a mural piece with Yuko and Peelander Yellow (from my very favorite band in the universe!). There will be tasty jams from Starscream, Hard Nips (an all-girl Japanese punk band), Moepion $ Moepions, and Pee Yellow doing a DJ set. It’s going to be absolutely insane!

Admission is $7. Doors open at 8pm. It’s a small club from what I hear so get your asses there early! Stop by and say hey and I’ll sketch you a weird thing.

Oh boy! Another Blazing Sword Burger in the wild. Mike, of Grumpy Bear Design, sent along photos of his interpretation of the BSB. I believe that is bacon I see there which makes this an ULTIMATE Blazing Sword Burger! As we all know, bacon makes everything ultimate.

If you’ve got an interpretation of this world famous burger (recipe here) that you’d like to share, please send along photos. We’re ready to believe you!

We’ve got another Blazing Sword Burger sighting, this time from reader Kara! Here comes twice the burger powah!

Oh man, that looks good. What’s the verdict, Kara?

For the record, @angryzenmaster, the burgers were deeeeeeeeeeelish. <3 Those things were fuckwin and we have agreed we are having them again.

Yay! Another satisfied customer! You can find the Blazing Sword Burger recipe here, and if you make one, please send along a photo so we can all drool with envy!

I’ve always felt that the discrimination against gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people in this country was a hateful remix of the discrimination against minorities that we’ve taken years to overcome. All the arguments against same sex marriage are mirror images of the arguments against inter-racial marriage and it has infuriate me to no end. So I almost cried when I heard the news that yesterday, a federal judge declared California’s Proposition 8 unconstitutional. In his opinion, Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker wrote:

Proposition 8 singles out gays and lesbians and legitimates their unequal treatment. Proposition 8 perpetuates the stereotype that gays and lesbians are incapable of forming long-term loving relationships and that gays and lesbians are not good parents.

Replace “gays and lesbians” with any ethnic minority of your choice and you see just how fucking ridiculous Prop 8 is.

This isn’t the end. Supports of Prop 8 will no doubt appeal. This case might even wind up in the Supreme Court. But in my hope of hopes, I like to think that this marks a turning point in American civil liberties. I’d like to live in an America that encourages love and stands against discrimination in all its forms.

Besides, if they’re not fucking you, why do you care?

Puppy Cow is a crazy, adorable yet slightly gross creature that I created at ConnectiCon. I’ve created many characters and creatures over the years, but none has ever gotten the instant response that Puppy Cow has. Sometimes opportunity kicks you in the head so I went out and got some quotes for plush toys and vinyl toys. Turns out both are doable, they just require some moneys. So I’m starting a Kickstarter campaign to raise money to produce Puppy Cow plushies. If it’s successful, it means that it’s more than just my friends who want to get their hands on this crazy thing. I’m looking to raise $4000 by September 1. For your contributions, I’m giving away some pretty nifty art incentives. Check out the Puppy Cow Kickstarter for more details.

So if you’d like to take home your very own adorably horrifying Puppy Cow plush, please consider contributing. And please share with all your friends.
