Friday Miscellany!

• The Battle for Ukraine has begun in Slovyansk (2) and Odessa, and Russia is threatening further action. War is imminent; if you're in Ukraine, consider getting out.


• Target is set to offer more secure credit cards. But, even those new cards have problems (PDF).


• Yahoo! stops honoring "do not track" settings, meaning that they'll collect your data even if you opt out. Unlike their earlier dick move of rejecting emails that don't follow the new authentication protocol, thus crippling every Yahoo! email account from using mail lists, this dick move is completely deliberate.


• Four years after manufacturing a few atoms of element 118, we've finally managed to manufacture element 117. Clever monkeys, aren't we?

Join us tonight, May 2nd, at Bite Studio for a group show! All manner of prints may be found, including three of my newest Lovecraft Mythos works. Doors will be open from 6pm to 10pm. One night only!

World Horror Convention

My creepiest woodcuts, including Tsathoggua shown to the right,  may be found in the art show, while I may be found on a number of art-related panels. Just check your schedule!

After WHC I’ll be taking a bit of a break from shows to concentrate on creating new work for some secret projects, as well as to debut later this year at the Esoteric Book Conference!
