happens when the president is a reality TV conman and grades everything on a scale of 'watchable' - the whole cabinet is casted for show talent and apperance (and blind loyalty. and embezzelment skills and...I'll stop here)

Hey folks! I just made a starter pack of all the art hosts on my weekly lists. If I missed any, please let me know.

pines on a cold morn -
I still doubt spring
the birds don't

wonderful capture (or sould I say 'pictorial translation of nature? )&description !

I do like the words by Checkov as well - very harsh, very true. Our mind is very apt in attributing meaningful patterns to the fundamentally meaningless, finding beauty in danger and sense in the senseless

"El mar no tiene ni sentido ni piedad" — Anton Chekhov. La brutalidad del impacto contra el karst asturiano exige precisión; no buscamos sedas, sino la violencia del agua congelada. El blanco de la espuma estalla contra la piedra, creando un juego de contrastes que define la lucha eterna de los elementos en este paisaje protegido de nuestra costa. Observar la silueta humana ante la magnitud de la ola es un recordatorio de nuestra escala. La foto no captura solo el paisaje, sino la vulnerabilidad del espectador. En ese equilibrio entre la fuerza ciega y la presencia estática reside la verdadera tensión narrativa del blanco y negro.

📌 El Rugido del Cantábrico | The Roar of the Cantabrian

"The sea has neither meaning nor pity." — Anton Chekhov

ist 'Gewichtsdecke' ein mir unbekanntes Codewort für 'Katze'?

hey Iran, wrong side, Mar al Algo (pun intended ) is in FLORIDA

rusty dusk -
no one plows
the ruined fields

thank you ☺️🙏

crazy colours outside this evening - and the first thunderstorm this year. #snapshot with my mobile - made it home dry, barely

😌🙏

no noise, no movement, nothing, only stone, arches, pillars, a memorial to a long deceased, forgotten abess, on the spire of the tower: a crow, looking down at me looking up; questions, unasked, unanswered on an endless sunday eve, before spring, before dusk

by the quiet pond -
the moss, still damp
from her tears

thank you! 🙏

thanks! I felt a little bit like spoiling your poem, for it stood out alone quite lively and didn't need any attachments - couldn't resist though😁

you're most welcome!

also: 'Krummholz' ['crooked wood'] is a neat, strange and beautiful word, sounds like the name of a desolate place to my ears (native German speaker here - yet I never used or heard the word in this connotation. All the more excited to learn about it!)

a masterful poem by Thomas L. Vaultonburg: reminding me of breathless hours spent beyond 2000m, in intense scent of pine needles and thin air, stepping beyond dense forests, between rocks and meadows. Trees get sparse, crooked, worn down by the hardship of height - throning above all: silent peaks

this white house -
withered roses
paint it black

faint scent of flowers, wet earth, birdsong, butterflies and bees, finally, this long winter passes, I would like to rejoyce, but when I close my eyes, I see

smoke
blossom beneath
a red spring sky

I hear wailing sirens - mingled with the cries of parents who lost their child

fascinating. Apart from colour,lighting&perspective - the strange watch-like clock lends the picture an almost surreal appearence (like a model?)

black rain
over Tehran
the darker veil

thanks! 🙏
