Mad Quickies: Ethical Photographer, LEGO Inferno, 3D Haiku and More!

Glad you asked! I’m hard at work putting the finishing touches on the 2015 Skepchick and Mad Art Lab Gift Guide. This group of items is shaping up to be a thing of beauty, oh I tell ya’. It will go live tomorrow morning. In the meantime, I’m giving you these tidbits to amuse you. Cheers!
