    SLOP IS HIP.

    ByJay September 1, 2026September 2, 2026

    The future has arrived a bit too soon, and they tell us that we now have thinking machines. What could go wrong? For better or worse it certainly seems as if our new friend, artificial “intelligence”, is here to stay- for an extended visit anyway. And for many of us, it’s starting to get a…

    ZBQ Fan Club is DEAD.

    ByJay July 16, 2026July 16, 2026

    ZBQ Fan Club is finished. This is the last blog entry I will ever make for the zbqfanclub blog, and I’ll be shuttering zbqfanclub.com shortly after. But one ending is another beginning. And this is by no means the end of ZBQ- not by a long stretch. OK, so I clickbaited you there a bit….

    My Freagin’ Life Pt 4: New Blood pt. 1 (2009)

    ByJay May 6, 2025May 6, 2025

    Welcome back to ZBLOG errbuddy. My obligatory apology for this sustained absence is not disingenuous: I truly do lament that you’ve been bereft of my guiding wisdom for such an extended season, and for that I do sincerely take genuine penance in my darkest hours. Forsooth. I’ve been down in the dub tank for about…

    where u been?

    ByJay October 13, 2024October 15, 2024

    Ah the insufferable blogger. Knocking out posts with ferocity one minute, defaulting back to confounding silence the next. And always returning with the same sad song: I’m sorry it’s been so long. But I’m back now. I will be good. I think anyone who’s been following what I do for any length of time will…

    Deep Dive: Collection #5 (SOLEIL)

    ByJay June 3, 2024June 3, 2024

    HOLY SMACK folks, can you believe it’s already been a month since my last update? What a lame blogger I am. Well, enough self-pity. I’m pretty excited about this month’s collection of garments, so let’s dive right in: OK so this shirt is obviously all about context, and if you don’t follow hip hop culture…

    Deep Dive: “Jaded” Collection #4

    ByJay May 3, 2024May 3, 2024

    It’s a new month, and that means a new collection. While I had thought of basing collections around certain themes when I first started this in February, I’ve gone with mostly color-based groupings of shirts so far. I’ll be honest, it’s easier. This month’s color, just in time for spring, is green. I’ll focus on…

    Applique Compositions Stage 3: The Final Cut

    ByJay May 1, 2024May 1, 2024

    The applique project has been proceeding nicely- in fact I just finished my fifth composition. I apologize for not posting updates through most of April, but I hope to make amends for that in May and beyond. I’ve been taking plenty of hyper-lapse videos to document a lot of the process, and I’m throwing them…

    My Freakin’ Life pt 3: 2008

    ByJay April 7, 2024April 7, 2024

    Another new year, another crossroad in my life. It was the beginning of 2008, and it was time to piss or get off the pot. I’d been having this on-again, off-again relationship with Canada Post for over a year by this point. As a letter carrier (aka “mailman”) for the nation’s postal service, I was…

    Deep Dive: Mystery School Collection

    ByJay April 6, 2024April 7, 2024

    I’m going to start doing this when I post the monthly collections. It’s a way to talk about each piece a little bit, its history, its provenance and so on. This month’s collection is called Mystery School, and features 12 unique pieces of clothing. Franny Farmer was an infamous actress from Seattle whose career was…
