Too many awesome links today, so my Wednesday list will be awesomer:

500 Years of Female Portraits. Trust me, this one is a keeper. If I could hang this on my wall and leave it running, I’d do it in a heartbeat.

Campaign for Real Beauty. Em sent me this link this afternoon. I’ve dabbled in photo manip, though she’s done a ton more than I have—and this clip is really telling.

And just because I can’t help it: Cthulhu Hot Dog Roaster.
