If somebody is able to successfully masturbate to this picture of Adelson, I will give them $1,000,000.

“I’m ordering a complete shutdown on olympic swimmers leaving the country until we can figure out what’s going on” - Rio judge

It’s really canoeist. (I know, I know...)

Why is it nonsense?

It’s almost as if you don’t understand that daily newspaper front pages use new, original photos — not file photos.

Your understanding of the media is limited and/or misinformed.

Well it’s not that simple. Sometimes a photo is chosen — by a photo editor, designer, photojournalist, etc — because it succinctly illustrates the thrust of the text story and headline. This sounds like what you’re most comfortable with; this is common for designers: they’re trying to unify an entire page into one…

Yeah seriously, that’s what I was thinking too. Maybe I’m just an Old Man Yelling at Cloud, but the fact that people will pay real-world money to put virtual makeup on virtual guns, and then throw those virtual makeup guns into a virtual box, and then that virtual box gets thrown into a virtual slot machine — it’s…

That’s not a hard rule in publishing or journalism. And they’re not just used to “keep people reading” — ie, to dangle a particularly interesting morsel in front of them. That’s the editor-centric blinders in you talking now — ie, an editor’s job (in the traditional sense of the word) is to make a piece of writing…

I try to remember a smiling gap-toothed child with HIV whose greatest joy was to sit on my lap and drink from a bottle of Coca-Cola.

Shit, self-published? Now I (kind of) feel bad about the online campaign against her (and my contribution to it).

haha. a million kinja dollars for you

Actually, you’re onto something. It totally is. Isn’t that boy-founder a Yale guy? Helena is literally what Skull&Bones’ Palo Alto chapter would look like.

The likelihood a band’s music is good is inversely proportional to how quirky their band name is.

are you Every Football Player in my Art History Class? because your weak-ass, half-baked, overwrought interpretations suck

lol wut. the “just a blog” you’re talking about is actually a multi-million dollar company. the “it’s just art, I’m sorry you don’t get it” you’re talking about is actually art in service of an editorial/journalistic story. fuck yes it needs to be faithful to the thesis/“gist”/meaning of the story. It needs to support…

agreed

The piece is the whole thing: headline, illustrations, text. In editorial work, these things stand together and should be coherent. Any part of a piece is fair game for criticism. Politely and coherently criticizing one part of it — even a small part — is totally fair. Ignoring a less-than-stellar visual concept…

“a new-paradigm based business that specializes in offering transformative experiences to individuals and businesses by building new-world solutions to traditional problems.”

Ya, definitely imprecise visual execution. The visual meaning “works” in both the main pic and the inline graphics, but only separately: you can’t have both at the same time.
