Pot Shots Photo Book

Monday, 20. May 2013

Hickorees brought this to my attention. Who knew that after a long day of chopping wood and other such beard and sawdust related activities, that workwear fans enjoyed a big fat blunt. I suppose it's because they're in touch with nature and all that stuff. All those days spent kicking ...

Maybe it’s a generational thing, but you older streetwear heads seem to absolutely love your Star Wars stuff. I’ve noticed several people who’s obsessive hoarding tendencies aren’t simply limited to rare trainers and collab tees. So, with that in mind, here’s me extending a generational olive branch from us young ...

Brooklyn Hip-Hop & Gentrification

Brooklyn Hip-Hop & Gentrification

Friday, 17. May 2013

Here's some cool stuff about hip hop, gentrification and what not. It's the New York Times so the writing and whatnot will be pretty legit. A gargantuan intellectual step up from the titbits of information and links we provide on here. I like to think of this little place as ...

The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby

Friday, 17. May 2013

This came out this week. I went and watched it. Here's my thoughts. I didn't think a soundtrack could ruin a movie, but it did. Generally, soundtracks are meant to compliment a film, but for the most part remain unnoticed. Gatsby, however, spent the first half of the story being an ...

I drank too much on Friday, that carried into Saturday and now I have a metric fuckton of stuff to post on here. It can't all be 10.30 am drinking sessions and other such glamorous pursuits, so now I'm back sharing the stuff which has caught my eye on the ...

Save Southbank Skate Park

Tuesday, 07. May 2013

I don't skate. In fact, I think we've established that exercise isn't my thing and the only reason I'm not fat is because my metabolism is a straight up G! That said, I'm all about people having places to skate instead of blocks of Costa Coffees and other establishments for pseudo-bourgeois, ...

A Miniature Underwater City

A Miniature Underwater City

Tuesday, 30. April 2013

This is pretty cool. Something that will appeal to film-buffs and mermaid fetishists alike. This abandoned 60s film set, found 30 metres below sea level, was created for the filming of L’Enfant et la Sirène (The Child and the Mermaid). It is a fully furnished miniature town which was eventually discarded in ...

The Brilliance Returns

Thursday, 25. April 2013

Can I share something with you guys before it blows the fuck up, so that I can claim my ten cool points in a few weeks time? It’s not so much that this wasn’t a relatively well known site beforehand; they just kind of didn’t post anything for three years. ...

Guantanamo Bay Hunger Strikes

Guantanamo Bay Hunger Strikes

Wednesday, 24. April 2013

*serious face* We like to keep things topical and not get bogged down in product, so every now and then we’ll go all political on your good selves. We’re expanding horizons I guess. I don’t even care if you don’t agree with the implications of the article, the fact that ...

It's nearly midnight on a Saturday, if you're on the internet and not looking at NSFW shit, you're not doing the internet right. So, in the spirit of all things deviant whilst still appreciating the need to keep it semi-tasteful, we're posting some beautiful black and white photography from our ...

Branding Terror

Branding Terror

Wednesday, 17. April 2013

This is some cool shit which seamlessly combines my love of nice graphic design and my fascination with guys who carry big guns and blow stuff up for political causes. Simply put, graphics and terrorism are dead interesting in my book. So, the novel idea of Artur Beifuss and Francesco ...

Here's us bringing you some more quality shit for your viewing pleasure. Titled "33 abandoned places that look truly beautiful," this selection of pictures is pretty self explanatory but breathtaking nonetheless.

Anthony Bourdain “Parts Unknown” Trailer

Anthony Bourdain “Parts Unknown” Trailer

Thursday, 11. April 2013

Outside of my general hero-worship for anyone that makes really nice clothes, Anthony Bourdain is pretty much that dude. He’s a classically trained chef, an author and he gets to travel the world; eating amazing food and generally looking like a badass in his trusty Desert Boots. He’s generally quite ...
