Love & Paint on Thrillist →
Paintings have long confronted societal repression of sexuality, from Botticelli’s eroticized Birth of Venus, to Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights — hey man, it’s 1504, a naked dude should be allowed to blast crows out of his butthole whilst being devoured by a human-assed bird monster if he wants to! Now you too can join titillating tradition, thanks to Love &...

Living in hardship can inspire creativity — after all, Anthony Kiedis never would’ve written “Under the Bridge” had he not actually lived under one, and Juvenile never would’ve written “Back That Azz Up” had he not recently lost most of his booty .gifs when his hard drive crashed.

UD - The West Is Dead
You like to be prepared.
If there’s a cork, you’ve got a corkscrew. If there’s a sneeze, you’ve got a handkerchief. If there’s a puddle, you’ve got some variety of puddle covering.

The West is Dead Autumn 2011 Looks
Here’s the story with The West is Dead: There’s two dudes living in the back roads of Montana near the Canadian border. One’s living in an abandoned school bus; the other in a horse stall.
