  1. is it just me, or does the "skinhead" not even look white? i mean if you're going to visually uphold a stereotype, then you might want the picture you use to represent that right?
  2. while we might not be able to give you visual advice, there is a thread of tattoo artists that are recommended by LST members. you can find it here. most of them should have websites or facebook pages where you can see their work and find out where they are tattooing.
  3. i'm sure the longer you cook them, the better they turn out, but it was late and i was craving rice and bean burritos with refried beans and i only had canned whole pintos haha. i just used olive oil and mashed them up, reserved some of their juices and added a little watter just to thin it out a bit. they went through this weird magical transformation (seriously, they went from brown to white then back to brown again), but tasted super good. between this and homemade tortillas using olive oil, i'm a firm believer that it brings something to the table when it comes to mexican food. then again, i love olives and just about anything affiliated so i'm biased.
  4. just discovered how easy it is to make quick vegan refried beans! i think i need to make a vegan version of this Jake.
  5. totally jealous. i want to start preserving olives. i love olives.
  6. oh and Loch: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/10324/ i fuckin' hate the north side kings, but whatever.
  7. speaking of Danzig's ego, i know a kid who tried to get him to sign his copy of Henry & Glenn Forever after having Rollins sign it, and Danzig looked at it, and then had him escorted out of the record store. ridiculous.
  8. now it's Loch's dreams that are crushed :*(
  9. yea but D, i don't know you yet in real life. but i do know Dan.
  10. funny, i have just 13506. i'm sure i can find 470 songs to catch up to you...
  11. an update on Lemuria! if you haven't heard the new single, you can go here to listen to it. i think it's well worth it and i can't wait to buy the new album.

    not a week goes by where your influence, your mentorship, or your lessons do not come up in my life and in my mind. i can't believe it's been a year already. photography just hasn't been the same.
  13. Scott, who's going to do your interview?

  14. the second girl in the last set of photos (the one with the bandanna over face), looks like this model that Karmaloop uses in their girls section. random observation haha. and i'll do my photo project once i get it all sorted out and actually find people who are interested. i'm looking to start shooting in January/February.
  15. it feels like there are more and more traditional "fine art" artists who are using tattooing as a medium for conceptual work. i ran across this example today and thought it was interesting, so i'm sharing it: from aceldama's tumblr: "Mary Coble meticulously documented the inscriptions from her previous three Marker (NY, DC and Madrid) Performances and compiled a list of over 200 hateful words and phrases written on her in various languages. For Blood Script, the artist has 75 of the most common words tattooed onto her skin, without ink, in a very ornate script. Using decorative letters, Coble creates a dichotomy between the beautiful visual form of the words and the ugly meanings they convey semantically. The words appear in blood as the tattooing needles penetrate Coble’s skin. Blood Paintings are made of each word by immediately pressing watercolor paper against the fresh incisions. The mirror image of the word is imprinted on the paper in blood. As each Blood Painting is created, it is placed on the wall during the performance. The number of prints on the wall expands proportionately as the artist’s skin becomes increasingly infused with hateful epithets. The elaborate script initially engages viewers in the optical challenge of identifying each tattooed insult. The recognition of each word stimulates viewers to reflect upon the significance of what the insult means to them. This dynamic process mediates a silent dialogue between the artist and her audience as the performance progresses." anyone else see anything recently that stuck out to them?
