Some haunting photos from the Micky mouse camera. I think the black splotched are like a antihalation dye that didn't fully come off. Still it is part of the mood and this cartridge of anscopan expired in 1971. We used Rollei Ro9 at 1+100 for 40 minutes of stand development.

So immigrants were โtaking our jobsโโฆ
but now fewer immigrants means fewer jobs?
The math on their propaganda never works.
These most recent allegations against Trump are vile and disgusting.
Nobody is above the law. Especially not the leader of the pedophile protection party.
This is the exact same time a friend of mine got a gig as a tech on his show and told me one of his responsibilities at the magic warehouse was sweeping the place for bugs because Dave believed the FBI had the place wired.

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.
15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

It's not a small problem to the troops on the ground
I wonder if said troops realise what's going on?
Russia is giving targeting information to Iran and Trump rewards them?

Spring-Themed Nerikiri Wagashi This charming photograph showcases three exquisite pieces of nerikiri, a type of traditional Japanese wagashi (confectionery) made from sweetened white bean paste and glutinous rice flour. The sweets are delicately arranged on a speckled, cream-colored ceramic plate shaped like a cherry blossom petal, set against a soft pink background dotted with tiny flower-shaped candies. The collection includes: A cherry blossom (sakura) design in soft pink with five distinct petals, topped with a tiny speck of gold leaf at the center. A rounded, multi-colored ball featuring precise vertical ridges in alternating shades of pastel green, pink, and white, crowned with a small pink blossom. A whimsical, mouse-shaped figure in creamy white with pink ears and a curled pink tail, adorned with two tiny cherry blossom petals on its head. The soft lighting and pastel color palette evoke a sense of spring and the celebration of hanami. These edible works of art demonstrate the incredible skill and seasonal intentionality inherent in Japanese culinary traditions.
Three varieties of Wagashi, which are traditional Japanese confections. These specific treats are Nerikiri, a type of namagashi (fresh sweet) known for its artistic, hand-molded designs that reflect the seasons.

๐ท Keepsake Portrait of an Ottoman Soldier in Arab Attire
"13 March 1916. You will not recognize me from this photograph of me taken in Arab attire, as I bear little resemblance to my present self. Naturally, since it is a very old photograph, I am sending a second one as well. And respectfully.."
This is interesting. But it is more interesting that Trump is rewarding Moscow for doing this by helping Russia sell oil, repeating Russian propaganda points, and senselessly burning through weapon stocks.

The front page of The National. The headline reads: THIS IS THE HUMAN COST. The photo stretches across the front and back pages of the paper and is the aerial view of 100 freshly dug graves for the murdered schoolgirls of Minab, Iran
NEW: US & Israeli have bombed a 4th school.
Shahid Hamedane School in Tehran was hit today, following schools hit in Minab and Parand, Iran.
And The National in Scotland seems to be the only newspaper in the Western world giving these war crimes appropriate coverage.

The Doni Tondo, 1504. Masterpiece. Thereโs no other word for it. Wins all the contests between renaissance geniuses. By Michelangelo, born on this day in 1475.

The only silver lining in this war cloud: this erratic impulsive president is demonstrating how risky it is to be tied to fossil fuel.
I hope this reinvigorates our countryโs conversion to wind, solar, geothermal energy.
