Arts Grants - Australia

By David

I'm back in Brisbane for Christmas and it's raining. Apparently it's been raining for the past three months. I'm sure it's just a little bit cooler than normal for people here, but for someone like me who's been sweating in Singapore every day of the year, it's damn freezing.

This is a quick post with a quick tip. Decent income can be hard to come by for many artists so it can be pretty helpful to find a good grant. The Australian Government has come up with a website shit-filled with grants. They have literature grants, theatre grants, community partnership grants - they have a smorgasbord of grants. 

You can find the link here:

Cool, thanks. Bye!

Alvin's Zombie Survival Sheet

by Alvin


The popular phenomenon that is Zombie Apocalypse's will continue to live long past it's decayed state, even if after a hundred years it has to de-evolve into a "cult" phenomenon to do so.

I'm not a biggarest fan but a loyal fan none the less.  So when I cam upon this bit of geekdom roleplay whilst looking for more stimulus to keep me up at night.  I was immediately taken over by the Spirit of Christmas & began filling in the boxes with whatever fantasy item I'd need to help bump up my 57% apocalypse survival rate to at least a 58.

Everything of course is fiction.  I didn't even consider items I truthfully own - I'd be grossly unprepared if I did - & where's the fun in that?

I say join this flight of fantasy if you haven't already; I have realised I'm late on this bandwagon (seeing as how this "sheet" is version 5.0), but if you're gonna complain - then I'll leave you with a pistol with zero bullets in its magazine when this rapture hits.

You can copy & paste the original template here.

Though if you're feeling rather empty on how to start, a good reading accompaniment to get you past donning your favourite pair of Havaianas in hopes they're enough protection - When you should be thinking steel cap boots with maybe a hidden blade at the toe for those nasty wasteland raiders - Is Max Brooks' bible for the end of days below.

Random Optical Illusion of the Day

by Alvin

I'm a big fan of optical puzzles & illusions and such other great Mind F**kers! Here's one to make you #2 bricks.  It's a great piece of art that cleverly blends the herd of horses into a flock of birds, BUT if you look closely that isn't the optical illusion... there's actually one hidden within.

Night Time Brothers V.2!

by Alvin


Before the new year and even Christmas for that matter descends upon us like a shower of armies of inter-dimensional warriors hell-bent on our destruction; blindly following their evil overlords.  We've gone into the process of updating This home of ours here in the Interwebs.

So to celebrate (only applies to Batman fans... sorry):  If you love Batman & would love to get doses of him daily, then scoot over to this sexy broad I've bumped into.

sample below...

Say No to Pedos: Tokyo to Cut Down Manga/Anime Porn

 By David

According to an article in The Straits Times, Tokyo is expected to pass a bill that will prevent people below 18 from buying manga comics and anime films that depict rape, incest and “other sex crimes”.

I’ve been to a few manga stores in Japan before. They have whole sections dedicated to porn, even child porn. I remember seeing a large, glossy poster of a prepubescent, naked girl.   

Apparently the Bill has faced strong opposition from artists and publishers. I’m guessing one main reason for the strong opposition is that a lot of money can be made from selling incest, rape and other similar publications to minors. Imagine losing your job because your company can’t sell rape porn to kids anymore. 

We make our world a very strange world to live in.

Gotham City Map

by Alvin

I'm a Batman fan, though not enough to fill my life with batman crap for the sake of it being poor imitations of batman... stuff.  Yet still, the good batman stuff is like gold running through your veins.  One being this image, which is something I've never come across, and puts some perspective to where the Dark Knight operates.

I take it he can only cross over to the city via Robert Kane bridge on the Batmobile, sooooo take that out and I guess he takes a break for the night :p
