This makes me want a video game about a zombie apocalypse that only affects men so it’s up to the housewives of 50s’ America to save humanity.

…saving this idea for class.

i would play the heck out of that game, it is an amazing idea.

Also can there be a character design screen so you can make your little housewife?

I think it’d be entertaining to see what guys could come up with for making their female-selves. If you ask me.

I would so play this game. 

I would suck at it but I would play it.

I’ve never played a zombie game, but you got me at 50’s.

Hngggggggg I love 50s clothes give it to me

OMG I already thought of some sort of premise:

In 1953 a certain laboratory on an undisclosed location developed a serum that could genetically modify humans, giving them enhanced speed, agility, strength, and brainpower.

Scientists found a way to modify the serum such that it could only activate itself in the presence of a Y chromosome, thus isolating the effects to men, mostly because of female discrimination at the time.

The serum was a success, and sales skyrocketed just a few weeks after its release.

What the developers did not anticipate, though, was the human body’s incapacity to handle the serum. The mental and physical over-exhaustion triggered a mental decay which starts out slow, but speeds up exponentially within a few months after usage of the serum. The brains of the users are left with only the most basic survival reflexes, transforming the users into strong, fast, agile, emotionless human shells, devouring any mobile life form in their path.

Bites from the affected individuals could place copies of the rogue serum into the bodies of the bitten, giving them the symptoms. Shortly after, the serum evolved into a sort of genetic virus, causing mental decay in just days. No one was safe. No one…

…except the women.

*cue in epic music*

Can you imagine the shitstorm this game would cause. I’d laugh pretty hard.

Would still play it though.

Not gonna lie, I’d play the shit out of this.

I approve of this concept 100%

I want a montage in the beginning of the housewife getting ready to kick ass

She puts on her best dress, a string of pearls, does her hair taking out the curlers, puts on her most stylish flats, and the finishing touch, her engagement ring with the big diamond in it, and when they fight, they look fabulous and kick ass like they were trained by Catwoman and Harley Quinn

Lipstick the shade of the blood of my enemies

Game, movie, comic, or tv, I want this to exist!

Space Paladin and limited color version for the woman warriors zine Abby, Julia, and Roxie are putting together for MoCCA. From the work I’ve seen for it, looks like the zine’s gonna be bonkers. Might do a limited print run of that top one. Inspired by Andrea’s space babes and Sailor Moon backgrounds.

What do you even say when something’s this badass?

Paul Jacoulet (1896–1960) - French, Japan-based woodblock print artist known for a style that mixed the traditional ukiyo-e style and techniques developed by Jacoulet himself. Jacoulet is considered one of the few western artists to have mastered the art of woodblock printing sufficiently to be recognized in Japan. Jacoulet was a true renaissance man –French but born and raised in Japan, expert in Kabuki, proficient on traditional Japanese musical instruments, a good calligrapher, conversant in several languages, and a recognized butterfly collector. Growing up in Tokyo he was the next door neighbor of ukiyo-e authority Yone Noguchi; he was taught English by Noguchi’s American wife, Leonie Gilmour, and befriended their son, the young Isamu Noguchi. Jacoulet’s father was an ambassador so Paul was widely traveled and was doted upon by his mother. She supported his artistic endeavors all her life. She believed that if French Polynesia was good for Paul Gauguin, then Jacoulet must go there too. She sent him away many winters from Japan to various islands in Micronesia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Although his most valued works are from this part of the world, he also has a substantial number of prints with subjects from China, Korea, all areas of Japan, and Mongolia. Just one print depicts an American.

Jacoulet’s works are also interesting to anthropologists. First because his subject matter was indigenous people in their traditional dress. In 1939 traditional people were the norm in his travels. Today his work is often used as a basis for reconstructing, for example, what Ainu traditional dress looked like by the Ainu themselves in their quest to reconnect with their cultural roots. Second, some of the subjects who posed for Jacoulet are still alive and they are currently being interviewed by a professor in Guam (Donald Rubinstein) to learn more about his artistic process.

Jacoulet was a shameless self-promoter and he sent prints to famous people to enhance his reputation. Mrs. Douglas MacArthur received an annual Christmas gift and his work hung in the General’s headquarters in Tokyo and later at the Waldorf-Astoria. Jacoulet was a flamboyant gay man at a very early date to be out, and his sexual orientation and gender fluidity are clearly reflected in his work. Near the end of his life Jacoulet was barred from entering the US due to his “undesirability” as a gay person. Undeterred, he dressed up in a white suit with a silver headed cane and walked into the US at Niagara Falls. (Source.)

What a fascinating life, this guy.

Reader is, and soon was, my go-to bud for staying in the know about pretty much everything I care about. RSS always struck me as one of the more valuable additions of the Web 2.0 era, and it saddens me to see it go by the wayside with no adequate replacement. More real-time venues like Twitter are great for occasional unexpected links, but they’re hardly designed for staying up-to-date on anything you really care about. Twitter has decided that anything older than a few hours doesn’t really matter, and that’s fine for what the platform is. Even Tumblr, which I love (obviously) has a bare-bones, of-the-moment design. Hell, the Tumblrs I really care about sit in my Reader account. For people who take a more measured and methodical approach to their consumption, RSS is hard to beat. I know there are other RSS services out there; I’m looking into a few options now. I don’t want to join the chorus of people pointing fingers at Google and saying “you’ve changed”, but I look at Reader, and I look at the shuttering of quirky, non-mainstream collaborative projects like Notebook and Wave, and I can’t help but feel like these decisions don’t fit with the Google I signed on with. A corporate culture of playful experimentation loses some of its luster when products that people grow to love are callously euthanized. Of course, I’m not ditching my Gmail account, and I’ll still use maps and search, but… well, I don’t know. I guess it’s foolish to form any kind of emotional investment in a product that exists solely by the whims of a multi-billion dollar company. Lesson probably not learned. This has been my rant/whine/eulogy, file it with all the others. Bye, Reader, I’ll miss all the shared, starred, and commented data I sunk into your soon-to-be-abandoned databanks. On to greener pastures I guess.
