Disney, Harry Potter, Comic Book-ness (mainly Deadpool and Batman), Cats, Corgis, Mean Girls, Social Issues, Food... the stuff life is made of.
But seriously. This is a whatever-the-hell-I-want-to-post Tumblr.
I'm also fairly certain my patronus is a hedgehog.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
London-based designer Sophie de Oliveira Barata creates some of the most jaw-droppingly awesome prosthetics we’ve ever seen.
Sophie comes from an art background, with a first class honours degree at London Arts University where she studied Special Effects prosthetics for film and T.V. She then went on to work for 8 years, as a sculptor making realistic looking, bespoke prosthetics for amputees at one of the leading prosthetic providers. She worked in all areas sculpting fingers, toes, partial feet , partial hands, bespoke liners and leg and arm covers for amputees. In her spare time she made more experimental art work in this medium, before setting up her own studio.
Known as The Alternative Limb Project, Sophie works as a specialist consultant with other prosthetists and produces both artificial limbs that look completely realistic as well as limbs created using imaginative ideas provided by the clients themselves. “She can interpret your ideas and create a unique design that will reflect your interests and personality.”
As you can see here, Sophie’s work is truly astonishing. As well as being completely functional prostheses, these amazing limbs are also unique works of art.
Each of her designs offer a sense of individuality, allowing the customer to express their personality through their synthetic appendages. The artist says, “Having an alternative limb is about claiming control and saying ‘I’m an individual and this reflects who I am.’”
Visit The Alternative Limb Project website to learn more about Sophie’s awesome work and check out more of her creations.

Calvin and Hobbes by Skottie Young
New head canon: Calvin and Hobbes never went back home after disappearing into the woods that last time. They walk the earth, solving crimes together and getting in zany adventures. They didnt need anyone and everything was perfect. Thank you, Skottie.

Can I see more of this in DC Comics? I’m missing levity:
On a Stakeout by *Harseik
There’s something that I really love about art that depicts superheroes doing normal things, like eat fast food. =D
So I was just looking at this awesome concept art from The Princess and the Frog.
I had it enlarged, big as it could go, scrolling along, admiring the details, and then I got almost to the end of the picture, right along the fountain.
it was a costume party
… set in the 1920s.
Patrol by Ian Navarro
So I was definitely just watching an episode of the Justice League where Dr. Destiny tries to trap everyone in their dreams. Batman goes into a diner and…
Everyone is just so confused. Seriously, people, he hasn’t slept for 3 days. HE NEEDS HIS CAFFEINE!
ChurchTanks by Kris Kuksi
People like to talk about how important the separation of church and state is, but nobody ever said anything about the separation of church and tanks. Probably an oversight they regret now. Kris’ mixed media constructs combine faith-based architecture with the dominating tread of military might, drawing obvious parallels between the two and paving the way for some badass G.I. Joe future vehicle sets.

Was anyone else half-expecting to see Nicholas D. Wolfwood walk out from behind one of those tanks? Or like, just riding alongside?
And then just…
