Check out the new blog. It's sparsely populated at the moment, but it'll fill up soon.

Looky, looky, more buttons have arrived here at Primary Assembly Substation One. Hand over a self-addressed, stamped envelope and the Pulsating Hivemind will fill it with stickers and a button and send it back to you:
5000!
117 N. MOUNTAIN VIEW AVE.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

If you're wondering where the design portfolio went, the All-Seeing 5000! Mega Brain is pleased to let you know that he's launched his own design studio under the name TOKYO FARM. Come by and check it out or face immediate disassembly.

When you're done here, head on over to blogging.la and art.blogging.la and get yourself some hot tips about what's going on the City of Angels. Provided in part by the throbbing, veiny, glass-dome-covered brain of your Maximum Leader. Tell 'em 5G sent you.

Pssst...are you bored at home on a Saturday night? Do you wanna do some grafitti but don't have any ideas? Click on the poster at the left to download an 11"x17" PDF that you can print out and hang! You'll need wheatpaste or wallpaper adhesive (available at your local hardware store), a roller or brush, a bucket and a willingness to risk vandalism charges. Seriously. 5000! wants you to remember that this is not an act of which your civic leaders will approve. Please, don't poster on private property, small businesses or federal property (no joke!). Traffic light switchboxes and abandoned buildings are best. Avoid the police. If you get caught, tell them you're doing an art project and do whatever they say. If they ask you to take it down, take it down. They won't take kindly to the content of this poster, so do your best not to have to talk to them in the first place. Report to The Maximum Leader if you have any questions (or to send photos). You can also just print this out and hang it up in your room, but it won't give the servos in your chest that tingly, well-oiled feeling.
