Le Week Le 25

April 25, 2015 / Lara Mulady

It's been a crazy week, this week, and right now I'm just waiting for this baby to get sleepy so he can go to bed. I will probably follow soon after.

Let's jump right in with one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. I'd love to see a documentary about Manhattan. Maybe there's one out there. I've not actually checked...

These posters for the up and coming Batman v Superman film are very nice. I love the simplicity of the idea.

Now that we're talking about Superman, take a look at what Zack Snyder's Man of Steel would look like if it was in colour.

Do you like Hillary Clinton? Then you'll like her laughing. The internet is a strange place...

Happy Queen, sad Queen.

The weirdest advert I've seen in a while.

There are few things I enjoy more than a good ghost town, so in some ways, I can understand the want to leave this incredible collection of classic cars to rot in a forest. There's no denying the moss, leaves, earth, and rust all create a very real sense of history, and maybe even make a bigger impact than if the cars were kept, mint condition, in a museum. They kick start your imagination so much more, I think. Where were they used? Who owned them? What happened? How did they get here? All you have to do is stare, and let your imagination run wild. Beautiful.

To finish off, here are some babies reacting to the new Star Wars trailer (that was really very good).

Have a great weekend, people.

Oh wait, here's a good magic trick.

The Internet - 15

February 14, 2015 / Lara Mulady

Hello and welcome to another week of the internet condensed into one handy blog post. Needless to say, this is entirely my own pickings from things that have popped up in my feed or that I've come across while surfing the web - but speaking of the web, do you know the difference between the web and the internet? Now you do.

There's been some beautiful weather in Copenhagen recently, in fact, you would be excused for thinking spring is beginning to spring, but I won't get my hopes up. One of my earliest memories of living in Denmark was being on the bus and seeing huge piles of snow - in April. I mean... I don't know. It's not right. Maybe I should move to Las Vegas. No, I can't even joke about that. I'm not sure I could imagine much worse. Anyway, here are some lovely photos of that obese and glittery money pit.

I must admit, however, that Las Vegas fascinates me. I've been twice, and I'd gladly go again. It's the strangest place. Try to arrive at night, if you're ever going there. It's fascinating to see it rise out of the blackness. Totally unexpected and yet entirely predictable, it's heaving with debauchery of every kind. It has a history like no other place on earth, well worth reading about. Now that I think about it, the place it reminds me of is Marrakech. They're both a complete and utter sensory overload, just in very different ways (except for the heat and the dust). Anyway, I'm going way off track, sorry. I've been kicked out of the house for mother group and now I'm just rambling.

Look at this great map showing how people from north London see the UK. I like that London is split - something that most of these kind of things forget to do, which is funny as the north/south divide within the city is probably more inherent than outside.

If you're one of the millions (?) who is obsessed by that 50 Shades of Grey nonsense, then you might like this 50 Shades Text Generator. Actually you might like it regardless of whether or not you've read it/seen it. Here's a sample. For all I know this is an actual excerpt from the book.
