Because this needs to be passed along to as many folks as possible, I am reposting this amazing entry from [livejournal.com profile] degeneratelyre. Seriously. It's long, but both very funny and very informative.

Stop reading this and click, okay? :c)

Flotsam and Jetsom

Over the last few weeks I've managed to collect a whole bunch of links to cool/weird/cute/wtf things I've found trolling the net, so I thought I'd pass a few of the along to you for those moments when you just want to veg out.

Chip pics. Cute story about a baby chipmunk found by the roadside.

Make your own flower fairy lights

Bubble Shooter. I am seriously addicted to this game.

Haunted English Castles. A whole list with links and photos.

SearchMe.com This is a really neat visual search engine that makes it easy to determine if the site you're looking at is the one you need.

Wonderland Expedition kit This is just....gah! Someone made an absolutely gorgeous birthday present for his girlfriend, who is a big fan of Alice in Wonderland. I can't describe this well enough to do it justice...just...go! Look!

Swarovski contact lenses. This one kind of goes in the wtf? department, because somehow just the *idea* of putting crystals in my eyeballs makes me cringe. BUT! If you're seriously into anime cosplay, or want to impress your Twilighter friends, they do add that special little twinkle.


And then a few photos to share:

Believe it or not, these are NOT photos of miniatures. They are an example of tilt-shift photography, which I think looks pretty cool. You can see more of these at this link.
