Aimee sent me a link to Murderpedia: the Encyclopedia of Murderers. It’s a work in progress as it currently only houses male killers, and I haven’t verified its accuracy yet, but I thought I’d share in case you’re in need of a little light bedtime reading.
Thanks to Michael Marano for sending me a link to a most exceptional Tumblr page entitled wunderkammer: a curiosity cabinet of (un)natural wonders. Well worth a browse!
And how about those Russian mafia tombstones? Class, all the way.

Unfortunately, the blog doesn’t appear to be updated any longer, but who can possibly resist a baking blog that describes a particularly unappealing looking cupcake thusly?
“In a perfect world everything would be as stark and void of color as these cupcakes. They are baneful in their absolute disdain for your tastelessness, and are true misanthropes as far as baked goods go.”
Thanks to Katchaya for the link.
Okay, which one of you wise guys came up with the idea of offering a free service to photograph dead babies in order to “help” with the “healing process”. A likely story. Sickos.
Thanks to Ingrid for the link.
Here’s an interesting place for UrbEx in Pennsylvania: Concrete City. It may not be there for much longer, so enjoy it while you can!
Thanks to Brian for the link.
It looks like death by Niagara Falls is actually extremely popular. Well, damn. I’ll have scratch that off the potential suicide method list, then. The Comtesse doesn’t *do* popular. Sigh…
Street Anatomy is a fantastic blog. Mike (who sent me the link) describes it as: “Vintage medical illustration. Street art. Fashion. Jewelry. Interior design. More, More, More. All depicting, inspired or designed around parts of the human body in virtually any context and collected from around the world. Vigorously updated. Hell Yes.”
It’s fantastic – check it out!
