defeat, crushed dreams, and mario kart.

[The glorious bit of art above was done by the phenomenal Seattle artist named Alivia Foley. She’s on Tumblr here and here. She is electric. Please go tell her how cool she is. And please do not steal this image of me as a stormtrooper.] 

Welcome to Esteban Was Eaten! I’m Justin. I was born in the year 1986. If you need more detailed information on my origin story and the ongoing saga of my days, go here. If you don’t know where “Esteban was eaten!” came from, observe. Also, go see this movie.

As for what this place is: I started it in November 2007 after a three-year run elsewhere. Here’s a brief thirteen-item list/synthesis of what you’ll be getting yourself into:

1. I write things; things like a list of personal fashion commandments and why sometimes you can’t beat the Muppets.
2. I post pictures; pictures I take and pictures I find online.
3. I post links; links to articles or news and cool stuff for sale.
4. I post music; songs that I like and songs that I love. For an idea of where my tastes lie, here’s the last eight concerts I’ve attended: blink-182, Childish Gambino, Colin Hay, The Format, Imogen Heap, Phoenix, The Shins, and Tenacious D.
5. I post art; art that I made and art made by people with actual talent.
6. I post videos; there’s obviously a lot of variety, there.
7. I post quotes; quotes that are fantastically relevant to me personally and quotes that I just like to read over and over.
8. I post exchanges; exchanges from sitcoms and exchanges from my life.
9. I post pictures of my own face. Sometimes.
10. Natalie Portman.
11. My oldest friend in the world claims that the term defined here accurately encapsulates who I am. I do not believe him.
12. Deconstructive analysis of exceedingly meaningless spheres of society.
13. Lists of things.

So… there you are. Have fun.
