When I was younger, I preferred the Simpsons over Futurama. But when I binge watched Futurama in college, I finally noticed the adult-variety jokes and the show was suddenly hilarious. I'm a bit sad that it had a short run but each reboot was progressively worse and I'm glad that they let it go before it went the route some of Matt Groening's other works.
Picking up Black Rose Minerals' New New York collection was a no-brainer for me. BRM has some great eyeshadows and after seeing these swatches from Ivy of Rock, Roll, Glam and Ellie from Personellietea, I was impressed by how well the eyeshadows matched their character inspirations.
