I'm a tired old man that uses #debian (#dwm & #herbstluftwm), #linuxmint (cinnamon) and #freebsd (dwm). I like window managers and enjoy short walks to the bathroom and/or kitchen.
Walter Molino: Master of Disaster

The action-packed pulp art of Italian artist Walter Molino (1915-1997) is unmistakable, catastrophic. Rubber-necker heaven. Trapped in a Molino illustration? The first thing to know is that modern conveniences are death traps. Here are a few classic Molinos that deliver the standard thrills with impeccably immediate danger. Don't even think
