So I caught wind that there was a new short called Everything & Everything & Everything and um... Carruth is in it. After falling on the floor, and self-administering an intracardiac injection of epinephrine... I literally emailed everyone in Hollywood associated with the movie I could get my hands on.

Carnivorous Plants In All their Stop Motion Glory - There is something ridiculously oh, I don't know... awesome? about the crazy and obscure things this world has to offer. For example piranha. Piranha are, without a doubt awesome. When I was in high school I raised two red belly piranha from the sizes of quarters to the size of a CD 3 inches thick.
There is something delicious about these dark photographs of flowers. The deep dark contrasting colors help pop the details we don't normally see somehow. They are striking. Very striking. I'm diggin' on 'em anyway. Kudos to you Bettina.
Gah.

Historical White Christmas Probabilities
What Color Is It Now Hex Clock Brilliance - My favorite color is #6e7ca0. But I'm fairly partial to #7c878e as well. In the world of the web, hex values are how designers work colors.
