A close-up view of a deteriorating double-hung window on an abandoned building, shot from below at an angle. The window has white painted wooden frames with multiple panes in a grid pattern. The paint on both the window frame and the horizontal wooden siding is severely peeling and flaking, exposing bare, weathered wood underneath. The siding runs diagonally across the frame due to the camera angle. On the left side, there's a corner or column with heavily chipped and peeling paint showing layers of white and darker colors beneath. The window glass appears dirty and reflects some shadows or interior darkness. The overall image has a sepia or vintage tone, emphasizing the aged and neglected condition of the structure.

The exterior of an abandoned or severely deteriorated wooden building with white painted horizontal siding that is extensively peeling and flaking off, revealing weathered gray wood underneath. A tall, narrow double-hung window with white painted frame and multiple panes reflects trees in its glass. The window is flanked by portions of what appears to be corner trim or adjacent wall sections. At the bottom of the frame, dark wooden posts or supports are visible, along with a deteriorated wooden floor or porch covered in dirt, debris, and decomposing organic matter. The overall condition suggests long-term neglect and exposure to the elements.

I never get tired of this album. Bought it when it was released and have listened to it every year since it came out. One of the greats.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and joyful Thanksgiving. Grateful today (and every day) for the people who make life brighter, the small moments that matter, and the chance to pause and appreciate what we have. Hope your day is filled with good company and a little time to breathe.

A long time ago, we called this "paraquat debugging", i.e., eliminating a bug by destroying the environment in which the bug lives.

It's so iconic, and I listen to it so much, that I have to periodically go on EWMN hiatus to avoid burnout. Same for "Watusi Rodeo" by Guadalcanal Diary. There was a time in the 80s and 90s when EWMN appeared on nearly EVERY mixtape I made. It's the perfect janglepop song.

A vintage ceiling fan with four wooden blades mounted on a weathered turquoise ceiling. The fan appears aged and dusty, with a brass or bronze-toned metal housing and a frosted glass light fixture attached below. Two pull chains dangle from the fan for controlling the light and speed. In the upper left corner of the image, a wasp or hornet nest is visible attached to the ceiling near the fan's mounting bracket. The ceiling shows cracks and peeling paint, and there's a horizontal wooden beam or molding visible at the bottom of the frame, suggesting this is in an older, possibly abandoned room.
