Comics About Everyday Life In Amsterdam

圖片
Life is weird and wonderful. I like telling stories about mine, and what better way to do that than in graphic short stories, comics if you will.I live and work in Amsterdam, which is great except that the rent is too damn high. Therefore I share my small, creaky, and leaky apartment with my lifelong friend Famke. She’s in my comics too. Went to a pretentious art school. It turns out comics are not art. Somebody should have told me. I left after a year or so. Or maybe I was kicked out; I forget. I draw comics for fun; I make psychedelic art for fun, occasionally I do commissions, and when I’m poor, I do odd jobs. These are usually not fun but definitely great material for new comics. My notebooks are full of graphic stories in all shapes and sizes. Recently I’ve started to produce stories you can read on your phone. I’ve made a pretty awesome website, and I publish my work on Imgur and Reddit. I also dabble at Instagram. So yeah, find me there. Lots of love, Jean Dolly. M

Ubiquitous Items Are Organized Into Intricate and Colorful Compositions by Adam Hillman

Amazing Vintage Photos of Guests in Their Costumes for the 1897 Devonshire House Ball

圖片
  The Devonshire House Ball in 1897 was a fancy dress ball, aka a costume party. The Duke and Duchess of Devonshire had hosted a similarly lavish ball in the 1870s, and it was immensely popular with the Prince and Princess of Wales (the future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra). In honor of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897, they decided to replicate the event. They held the ball at their London house, Devonshire House, in Picadilly. While multiple balls were held every night during the London season, this was the ball. The Duke of Devonshire was a Member of Parliament and a Liberal cabinet member and was an original member of the Marlborough Set. (The Marlborough Set was the group of friends and aristocrats who were closely connected with the Waleses, named for the Prince’s Marlborough House. The group enjoyed a lavish party, where money was no object- at least not for Edward…) Like any good costume party, the ball needed a theme. The Devonshires chose the theme

Vintage Photos Of Antarctica’s Frozen Hellscape

圖片
During the golden age of Antarctic expeditions, men risked their lives in this frozen wasteland — and brought back some incredible photos. A wave, frozen while crashing through the air, frames Douglas Mawson's ship, the  Aurora . 1911. National Library of Australia At the dawn of the 20th century, men risked their lives venturing into the frozen lands of Antarctica and toward the South Pole. It was called the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration, a name earned because so many of those men didn't make it back alive. The wreck of the  Gratitude , washed up among the penguins of Macquarie Island. 1911. State Library of New South Wales Some of the stories that came out of this period of Antarctic expeditions are incredibly brutal. Over the course of 17 expeditions into Antarctica, 19 men died, some shattering their bones on the hard rocks of the frozen continent and others freezing under heavy blizzards. A blizzard hits members of an expedition, just outside of their winter

Bad Girls of the Bible

圖片
  Why do you suppose God preserved life stories of bad girls in the Bible? Perhaps to illustrate “… that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16 NAS). From the Garden, God gave instructions, the consequences, and allowed His creations to make their choices—faith in Him or eternity with the devil. Could it be, like beauty in the eye of the beholder —all bad girls in our eyes may not be condemned in God’s eyes? Why? Because of Jesus and their changed hearts. What encouraging words for us that harlots, murderers, liars, and rich, evil queens are listed in God’s Word. Could whosoever mean there’s hope for you and me? Absolutely. You have a choice. Your past doesn’t dictate your future or your eternity. Tamar One of Jacob’s 12 sons, Judah, married a Canaanite woman who had two sons. According to custom, Judah obtained Tamar as wife for his eldest, Er. But God called this boy evil and took his life. According to the law, Judah told his ne

THE MINNESOTA COP WHO CRASHED HIS PATROL CAR INTO A UFO

圖片
  In 1979, a sheriff’s deputy in rural Minnesota encountered what he could only describe as an unidentified flying object. And no expert, investigator or engineer could ever prove him wrong On a late August night in 1979, Deputy Sheriff Val Johnson was on patrol in rural Marshall County, Minnesota. The closest town was 10 miles away and the night was still, the fields around him quiet and empty. Suddenly, Johnson saw a bright light streak across the darkness above. He grabbed hold of the wheel of his patrol car and hung a left on State Highway 220.  Perhaps the light was a pilot in distress? Either way, Johnson kept racing toward whatever it was. But then the light shifted and began to head in his direction, right at him in fact. It grew brighter and brighter, until he heard glass shatter –– the light had entered his patrol car. Everything turned to black, and Johnson lost consciousness. What happened next has remained a mystery for the last 43 years.  He later told local reporter Jil

  S cilla Gabel is an Italian actress and television personality. The Blue-eyed redhead, with the perfect body measurements earned a role as Sophia Loren‘s body double in the movie “Boy on a Dolphin”. Gabel looked so much like Loren that she was quickly hired to work as Loren’s double again in “Legend of the Lost”. During that time, she also appeared in many Italian movies with small roles. Scilla Gabel combing herself in front of the mirror in the film “The Two Colonels”, 1962 Although she appeared in 50 films, but failed to make significant progress in big screen as Loren’s despite their similarities. In the 1980s Gabel appeared in Italian television mini-series based on novels. Her uncanny resemblance to Loren and the stereotyped roles that she played destroyed her career.

過去瘋狂的美容趨勢,現在沒有人願意以任何價格嘗試

圖片
  今 天看似時髦、時髦的東西,明天可能會成為普遍嘲笑的對象。 歷代顯然沒有想到這一點。 當然,透過訴諸奇怪的美容趨勢,他們相信自己可以讓自己的外表變得更明亮、更不尋常,而且他們的方法將在文化中根深蒂固幾個世紀。 過去的時尚達人會毫不猶豫地穿著不舒服的衣服,這往往會導致受傷,並使用可疑的、有時甚至是危險的化妝品。 為了美麗,你會不遺餘力。 值得慶幸的是,今天這些趨勢基本上已經成為過去,不會再讓任何人感到震驚。  緊身胸衣 在維多利亞時代的英國,女性的細腰不僅是一種時尚宣言,也是一種責任。 只有那些行為不符合普遍接受的規範的人會拒絕穿緊身胸衣。 這件衣服給女性帶來了真正的折磨,導致昏厥、呼吸困難、內臟移位。 過去的緊身胸衣無法與現代型號相比,現代型號是根據完全不同的原理製成的,並且無法收緊那麼多。  在古代,日本有一種不尋常的將牙齒變黑的傳統。 它被稱為“ohaguro”,一直存在到明治時代(1868-1912)。 黑化是由結婚的女孩進行的。 這是她對丈夫強烈而不變的感情的標誌。 牙齒上沾有一種特殊的糊狀物,這種糊狀物是由鐵屑、醋和茶末製成的。  剃光額頭 在伊莉莎白時代(1558-1603),高額頭被認為是美麗的象徵。 許多女性和男性故意剃掉前額的頭髮以順應時尚潮流。 有些人甚至設法去除所有臉部毛髮,以使他們的轉變更加明顯。  龐大的假髮   16世紀歐洲時尚的主要立法者是國王。 於是,多虧了路易十四,出現了著名的巨大粉假髮。 然而,這款配件如此受歡迎的原因遠非成為時尚人群的一部分。 貴族代表用假髮來隱藏自己的光頭。 這是必要的,因為長髮在歐洲被認為是權力的象徵之一。 女性也不落後於男性。 然而,他們笨重的假髮主要強調了他們的地位。  不自然的蒼白 在19世紀,許多女性故意食用含有砷的華夫餅,也少量食用純淨形式的砷。 這種操作可以使臉色變得更白,並消除雀斑和痤瘡。  肌膚煥發光彩  發現鐳的瑪麗居禮和皮耶居禮並不知道這種危險元素會被用在化妝品上。 但這正是美容產業的企業家所做的。 1930 年代,鐳被宣稱為“包治百病”,人們開始積極將其添加到粉餅、口紅和乳霜中。 這類致命化妝品最受歡迎的製造商是美國公司 Tho-Radia。 儘管該品牌賺取了數百萬美元,但其數百萬客戶卻因接受令人難以置信的劑量的輻射而不可逆轉地損害了他們的健康。  瞳孔大 如今,女性積極使用化妝品
