Tendrils of red Boston Ivy grow through spaces of a blue painted fence.  Between the fence boards, there are hints of a tree in the yard also midway through changing its colours.

This ivy is considered an invasive species in Ontario, but it's not as fast growing as Virginia Creeper which I maintain is clearly the work of the devil.

Fences are basically #masks for yards.

This blue one I passed was looking especially pretty with the bright red Boston Ivy growing on it.

"Ye who come to see Ozymandy,
King of kings, ye think ye Mighty?
Ye who look, ye who look on my Works there,
Ye better cry, ye better despair."

Travelling in an antique country
On a desert trail, stood legs tall as trees.
A statue once sneering,
Its head half buried;
And on its plinth there was a carving
And it said:

Don’t be fooled by the Ontario Ring of Fire ads aired during Blue Jays games | The Narwhal Doug Ford’s ads during Blue Jays World Series games suggest mines are up and running in the Ring of Fire in northern Ontario, but that’s not true

The Ontario PCs should not be allowed to run perpetual propaganda campaigns using taxpayer funds. Especially when they're using them to soften voters up to the idea of bulldozing constitutional rights & treaty obligations.

Silly me thinking my taxes should fund actual services.

A sunset photograph of a Cornish churchyard with graves dating from the 1800s.

In the foreground on the left side of the frame is an arched gravestone covered in lichen.  A vine has also attached itself and is beginning to scale the very weathered stone. 

Mid-distance is a rectangular grey stone.  Vine covered walls surround the green grass of the churchyard.  Typical stone cottages of the town are in the distance. The sky is mostly covered by soft purple-grey clouds tinged with peachy oranges and pinks.

The inscription of the heartbreaking, but hardly atypical, gravestone mid-frame reads: 

In memory of: 
Phillis the wife of
Edward Downing
Who died Nov. 27th, 1844
Aged 38 Years

And Edward Their Son 
Who died July 27th, 1845
Aged 17 Months

Also
Edward Downing
Who died August 31st, 1847
Aged 40 years

Some of my favourite rocks are (grave)stones.

A photograph of the Allen Lambert Galleria during the Christmas season. Soaring arches support a glass roof enclosing a six story space in-between the buildings of Brookfield Place. Curtains of warm white lights hang from the arches and reflect off the nearby windows.  A neon blue abstracted snowflake sculpture sits at ground level.  There is a blocky strip of red lighting along the bottom left from a restaurant.

The only thing better than interesting #architecture is interesting architecture decked out with Christmas lights.

That train is amazing.

The crew on the return put on a fashion show up and down the aisle to model the things available to purchase. The male crew member took his role particularly seriously and ended up with a group of Brazilian girls shrieking "Felipe! Felipe!" as he strutted his stuff. Epic 🀣

A photograph of two fallen trees decaying on a hillside.  The trunks lie one on top of the other like an X.  Despite having fallen, their position on a steep, rocky hillside means they're still relatively vertical.  The rocks are covered in dense, green mosses and other trees.  Just below the upper ridge there is a large stump with its roots clutching the rock beneath.

 why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

A self-portrait taken inside Yayoi Kusama's "Gleaming Lights of the Souls" at Denmark's Louisiana Museum of Modern Art.  The lights within the mirrored infinity room shift colours and at this phase of their cycle were primarily blue and purple with some red.  Echos of the photographer's body appear throughout the sea of lights.  The most immediate reflection in the centre of the frame has the brightest light directly over the heart of the woman. She floats as if lost in space. 

Accompanying text is an excerpt from Matthew Good's song "Flight Recorder from Viking 7".

Complete Lyrics: 

Space is colder
than the air in the mountains
where I come from
The air in the mountains
where I come from

For years I drifted
Further and further
into the unknown
Further and further
into the unknown

And I wonder
where have you gone
And I wonder
what have you done?
What have you done?

Space is older
than the air moving in and out
of your lungs
The air moving in and out
of your lungs

For years I've drifted
the math of a divinity
that goes on and on
the math of a divinity
that goes on and on

And I wonder
where have you gone?
And I wonder
what have you done?
What have you done?

More of this please!

Evidence based approaches that take on the true underlying causes of so many struggles is how we do better.

When you don't have a consistent, safe place to lay your head things that are already hard at the best of times become insurmountable.
