I think it would keep people more able to deal with weird situations

My father provided transport to the cat's appointment this afternoon, so while Autolycus was medically deemed a beautiful boy, we wandered around the former H.P. Hood Plant. I didn't have my camera, so I have no images of the railyard on the other side of a newish wooden fence where the old factory siding gives onto stacks of rails and ties and pieces of track and rather mysteriously a sign for the Mishawum station in Woburn, but my father captured a picture of me on the loading dock of a derelict building that looks out in the same direction.



Because this week has unavoidably featured being inside buildings, I happened to be looking at a television yesterday when the chyron read "Russian Invasion." I don't want to be flippant about it and I don't want to pretend to knowledge, but the last time I caught an invasion announced on TV, we're still living with its war. It's not something I want to see. This, especially not.

I meant to mention some days ago that I am charmed by Pom Pom Squad's shot-for-shot remake of the video for Nada Surf's "Popular." I had not actually seen the original.

I slept almost seven hours last night, which is almost more than I got in the previous week total.

That's a super photo--super architecture, super light and shadow, super textures, super focal point ;-)


I'm fascinated by those two videos, fascinated by what changes Pom Pom Squad's remake *does* make and how that subtly (and not so subtly) alters the feel of the message. Like you, I'd never seen the original either (though I'd heard the song), and it's interesting seeing what *that* one was doing too.

Thank you! I can take credit for almost none of it!

Especially since I saw the remake first, and then went back to discover what it had added or amended. or left out.
