Three panel comic. Panel 1: in an office break room, an excited man inspects a box of donuts. He says, “ooo… who brought donuts?” A coworker behind him says, “idk.” Panel 2: the man is holding tightly to the donut as it is suddenly and forcefully yanked out of frame, sending the table and several objects into the air. Panel 3: two fish are sitting in a canoe wish fishing gear. One grabs tightly to his fishing pole and exclaims, “I got one!”

Today would’ve been my friend Tom Matano’s 79th birthday. Tom designed cars like the NA Miata, NB Miata, and FD RX-7. If you love Miatas, you have him to thank for many things that make them special. It’s important to remember people. Thank you for remembering Tom with me today

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

In the early 1970s, four international conferences were held to showcase experimental safety cars. Fiat presented the ESV1500, based on the 126, at the Washington conference. It later produced the 128-based ESV2000 and 124-based ESV2500 to further explore design elements initiated with the 1500.

Two photos of a lovely little, early model, Suzuki Jimny. First pic is when I saw it near the Keihin Canal, in our neighbourhood. Second pic was when I was out having a walk around Ebaramachi and Hatanodai - a good few kms away from us - and found it in its home. #weirdcarBS
Early model Suzuki Jimny jeep parked in a street near the Keihn Canal, Tokyo. It’s yellow. Has no doors. Is a soft-top version. Fabric roof and scrim as the rear and side cover. Yellow, early model Suzuki Jimny jeep in a garage in Tokyo. Next to it is another car, covered by a grey sheet.

I love making and remixing art
Three panel comic.

Panel 1: an old man lies in a hospice bed with a content smile, glancing out the window as day breaks. There is a woman asleep on a small couch next to him. The man thinks to himself, “dang, that was chill. Wouldn’t mind a stressful one next time.”

Panel 2: the cycle of death and rebirth continues on, represented by the samsara wheel of life, along with splash text which reads: REINCARNATE-O!

Panel 3: a chimpanzee is alone in his dimly lit studio, head in hands, holding a lit cigarette. He looks completely dejected, feeling misunderstood. There is a pair of glasses, a glass of whisky, crumpled paper, and an unfinished painting laid out on the desk in front of him. The walls and floor space of his studio are covered in his abstract paintings on canvases and paper. There is also a marble sculpture of a banana beside him.
