In 1997, Last Unicorn gave Zug the chance at recreating Frank Herbert’s ‘Dune’ through a new trading card series. He was originally told to base his work off of David Lynch’s film, but after complications with licensing, “they told me to avoid similarity to Lynch’s visuals” says Mark Zug.

I realize that both Alucard’s aren’t in The Ouroboros Cycle, but they really make the point that vampires certainly don’t sparkle or put up with any teenage angst. 


I made this and now I kind of really want to make it into a shirt.


All sass, No sparkle.


It’s a thing.

Erwin Rudolf Josef Alexander Schrödinger 12 August 1887 – 4 January 1961), was an Austrian physicist who developed a number of fundamental results in the field of quantum theory, which formed the basis of wave mechanics: he formulated the wave equation (stationary and time-dependent Schrödinger equation) and revealed the identity of his development of the formalism and matrix mechanics. Schrödinger proposed an original interpretation of the physical meaning of the wave function and in subsequent years repeatedly criticized the conventional Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics (using e.g. the paradox of Schrödinger’s cat). In addition, he was the author of many works in various fields of physics: statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, physics of dielectrics, color theory, electrodynamics, general relativity, and cosmology, and he made several attempts to construct a unified field theory. In his book What Is Life? Schrödinger addressed the problems of genetics, looking at the phenomenon of life from the point of view of physics. He paid great attention to the philosophical aspects of science, ancient and oriental philosophical concepts, ethics and religion.He also wrote on philosophy and theoretical biology.

Forgive me for getting personal on this blog but two of my good friends really need help.

Their dog, Imoto, went missing Friday, August 9th, and it’s looking like she was stolen from her home in the North Seattle Area. She is micro-chipped, but if you think you saw her or someone trying to sell a black Shiba Inu like her in the Greater Seattle Area, call that number or message me.


Again, I’m sorry for using this blog for a personal reason. I try to make it a point not to do this but I really want to help return her home.


Craigslist Ad: LINK



Help find this stolen dog if you can.
