‘Wolf Girl III’ by sculptor and artist Cynthia Consentino, 2011. Sculptor Cynthia Consentino hails from my state of birth Massachusetts, and is currently part of the Art Department staff at my mother’s alma mater of the University of Massachusetts. I hope Consentino’s students know how lucky they are to have such a talented (and rather wonderfully demented) mind at their disposal. To help illuminate my point Consentino’s ceramic series called “Exquisite Corpse” borrowed its title and played upon the concept from a collaborative poetry game played by members of the Surrealist movement. It contains curious pieces that incorporate the bodies of animals and people with sinister and strangely captivating results. And while we’re on the topic of sinister ceramics Consentino’s portfolio is full of characters who fall into precisely that category, such as menacing looking human/wolf hybrids, angry children as well as toddlers armed with weapons. According to an article on the artist from 2007, she was further inspired to mix-and-match her sculptures’ decidedly non-bianary gender compositions after reading a study that took on sexual stereotypes from the perspective of a five-year-old child. So instead of incorporating the heads (or bodies) of a predatory animal...

Agnes Miller Parker was born in Britain in 1895, at Irvine, Ayrshire. She studied at the Glasgow School of Art from 1911 to 1917, and joined the staff of the School for a short period. In 1918 she married the painter, William McCance; and thereafter passed most of her career in London and southern Britain.In 1955 she moved to Glasgow. She then lived at Lamlash on the Isle of Arran. She died in 1980 at Greenock. I don't know the title of this 1939 work, but I love it. Click to enlarge for a quality printout. The Challenge-1936 Halsby and Harris, in The Dictionary of Scottish Painters (1990) suggest that Parker's early paintings, as well as those of her husband, reflect the short-lived group of artists known as Vorticists, active in London in the 1920s. The main body of her work consists of wood engravings for book illustrations. Halsby and Harris characterize these as demonstrating fine draughtsmanship and skilful use of black and white design. She illustrated The Fables of Aesop (1931), Through the Woods by H. E. Bates (1936), and her most acclaimed work, Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard by Thomas Gray (1938), titles for the Limited Editions Club of New York and editions of the works of Shakespeare and Thomas Hardy. from 1943

You have probably seen a lot of funny capybara pics online. These chill cuties have taken the internet by storm, largely due to their unperturbed facial expression and what seems to be the ability to get along with virtually any living creature they happen to be around. Naturally, this led to the question: are capybaras friendly, or is this all somehow staged? That’s a very interesting question, but before we get into it, let’s start with the basics.

Comical, cuddly and capricious, Corgis have continued to rule the internet with their various hijinks. While they might seem ridiculous at times, did you know that Corgis were originally the pets of warriors? Yes that’s right, the first breed of these snuggly dogs were brought over to Cardiganshire, Wales by a warrior tribe of Celts around 1200 BCE. Now, over 3000 years later, Corgis seem less like warriors and more like comedians. Pretending to drive cars, sledding in the snow and dressing in ridiculous outfits, these rotund pups have brought many of us countless moments of internet joy. Beyond the web some Corgi enthusiasts love these animals so much they organized a Southern California annual Corgi meet-up. Here at Bored Panda we like to spread the cheer, so we have put together a list of some of our favorite Corgi moments. Don’t forget to up-vote your favorite photos!

Existe um tópico no Reddit (rede social que reúne fóruns de temas variados), que funciona como um espaço para as pessoas testarem suas habilidades na manipulação de fotos. O resultado na maioria das vezes é uma coleção de imagens incríveis e hilárias. Uma das últimas “batalhas” aconteceu depois que uma foto de uma estrela do mar (a de verdade mesmo) foi registrada e é muito igual ao Patrick Star, o amigão do personagem Bob Esponja. Aí pronto: a brincadeira começou e, é claro, sem limites, bem do jeito que gostamos. O Mega Curioso separou as melhores para você se divertir. Imagem original.

A primeira vez que ele apareceu, foi no episódio “Help Wanted” e é o irmão mais novo da estrela do mar Sam Star, que se perdeu da família quando Patrick era uma pequena estrelinha do mar. O reencontro dos dois foi retratado no episódio "Big Sister Sam". #11 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #12 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #13 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #14 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #15 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #16 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #17 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #18 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #19 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda #20 Foto: Reprodução/Bored Panda Uma das memórias mais traumáticas de infância/adolescência do Patrick, é a de ser um alvo fácil para jogadores de queimada, tudo porque o personagem tinha a mania de recitar poemas durante as aulas de ginástica. Ele se tornou vizinho do Lula Molusco e do Bob Esponja depois que seus pais o expulsaram de casa. Mas antes mesmo de serem vizinhos, um dos episódios explica que Patrick e Bob se conheceram ainda bebês. E você já tinham reparado nos olhos do Patrick? Em alguns episódios eles são verdes, mas em outros roxos. O que isso vai mudar na sua vida? Isso mesmo: nada. Mas da próxima vez que estiver passando Bob Esponja, apostamos que você não vai tirar os olhos do Patrick.
