Tech Buzz “This bra is hand painted to look like the famous Facebook Like button!” It's kind of restating the obvious.
Tech Buzz So online craft store Etsy crashed last night which would have been a non-event if Regretsy (self-proclaimed “failblog of hand crafts”) had not started contest on Twitter for the best reason why Etsy was down. Hilarity ensued.
A seller on etsy tries to spin a heart-shaped placental after-birth stain as a “romantic addition for anyone looking to add that extra spark to your love life.” This mattress is just waiting to absorb all of your love juices. (via regretsy.com)
Culture Buzz Each line in these drawings by Melanie Bilenker are made using strands of the artist's own hair! The delicate drawings depict quiet scenes of domestic life which are sealed in Victorian-inspired brooches and rings. And you thought all hair art had to leave you wishing for an UnSee Button.

Apparently, it's some kind of role-playing thing. It looks pretty real except for the fact that it's four whole inches tall.
Culture Buzz BuzzFeed Managing Editor Scott Lamb hates steampunk. In honor of his birthday today, here is a list of Etsy items mislabeled or erroneously tagged as steampunk. He should love all these things. (From Not Remotely Steampunk on Regretsy)
Culture Buzz The slarf will keep the chill off your neck and your arm, but just one arm. Because, you know, fashion. I want someone to justify the need for the sleeve scarf so it can become a real thing. (source, Via)
This blanket made from 100% authentic hamster fur costs $4,000. It looks like it's made up of about 126 hamsters, which comes out to $31.74 per hamster.
You would think that searching for cat toys on Etsy was a relatively harmless activity. You would be wrong.
Because death and blood is cute. I'm sure we all want to find a squished rat in our novel!

You know what? Somehow, this just seems right. A 100% cotton pad from Regretsy.
Of course it does. What's really shocking here is that this is going for a mere $25.00 USD.
Artwork by Rose Briccetti and commissioned on Regretsy. The followup painting had Lady Gaga hollowing out the inside of the unicorn and crawling inside for warmth.
Is it just me or are these the only cinnamon buns that would look tastier without the icing?
Tell your friend or lover how your bonds will never break, no matter how hard they are pulled apart. It truly is beautiful.
It's 100% medically accurate, for the discerning cat. You know you want to see your cat batting around this ass-to-mouth cat toy. Or at least decorate your Christmas tree with it.
For just $50 you can class up your home or office with this 9/11 commemorative painting straight out of an imaginary alternate reality. I'll let the seller explain: “In an alternate universe after 9/11 (our nation's tragedy) McDonald's builds a giant GOLDEN ARCHES memorial to replace the fallen World Trade Towers. THEN, they go ahead and sell paintings of said memorial. This is that painting, and when you buy it you are living in that alternative universe. Go ahead, quit your job. It's the end of the world as you know it and you feel like eating a Whopper. Burger King is pretty good!”
All black people will finally see that I support black people via my glorious earrings. [Ed Note: Quickest way to get yourself a black best friend, in case you're in the market. It totally worked for these guys.]

Available on Etsy, a handmade doll with a photo of your actual child glued directly onto its facehole. Why hasn't anyone thought of this before (apart from because it's the creepiest thing ever)? (Via Regretsy.)
ATTENTION FURRIES!! This plush teddy bear with an oversized handcrafted vagina is being sold on Etsy.com for only $35. Regretsy is my new favorite blog.
