Every Tuesday, Critical Mass sifts through the art blog world so you don’t have to.

— McJAWN gives us a peek of one of the pieces in “The Cosby Show,” a bad sweater-inspired exhibit up at CafĂ© Mocha (263 S. 10th St., 215-592-4303). Is it just me, or does the Temple grad look kinda smug in the illustration?

— Breast painting is an artistic endeavor pursuable only by those endowed enough to put bosom to canvas without smearing too much paint. PW Style finds out more from local breast artiste and Craigslist find, Ashley, in this odd yet stimulating interview. Can’t wait till the prick painter comes out of the woodwork.

— Phrequency offers a look at this past Friday’s Making Time, featuring The XX and the Phenomenal Handclap Band at Voyeur. Without being able to hear the music, it’s not at all like being there. But with the help of the photos, you can easily channel your inner awkwardly observational drunk. My favorites: Nos. 19, 34, 54, and 73.

— Ahh, Phooey posts Dilbert-esque irreverent comics on an infrequent but pleasurable basis. Not all are all that funny, but this one is.

— Weeks after its blowout annual event, Design Philadelphia is hosting a free lecture by designer Tord Boontje, who works with lace. His exhibit “Lace in Transition” at the Design Center puts all doilies to shame. Prepare to have your mind Boontjed.
