My typing has been getting sloppier because I only type one-handed these days because I can't put her down.

You are very well lit, Sean.

"dude...look at the carpet"

nice

jeez I want to do shrooms w/ that guy so bad

Deserves an xpost to

every night i tell myself i am the cosmos, i am the wind.

imo

Jeez I'm listening to "Super Roots 7" and I just stared at that gif for like a minute and a half in trance.

hahaha, super roots 7'll do that to ya

the actual picture was from the underground conveyor belt that connects the East and West wings of the National Gallery of Art. we tried to take a few quick pictures in sequence (standing veeery still) with the intention of animating them later, but it didn't work so well!

wwas photography forbidden?

on the conveyor belt, no, in some of the exhibits, yes. they were very inconsistent with their photography policy, and i sorta felt bad for the guards because it seemed like 99% of their job was telling people not to take pictures!

looks cold

Not too bad tbh, would've been brutal today.

yeah i may be projecting cos im bashing the keyboard with frozen stump hands right now

These gales are coming from the west maybe? It was a warmish wind yesterday, not so much today.

gales never really materialised, short of a burst on sunday.

wdyll discussin the weather

Towards the north-ish end of the spit, looking onto the mudflats of the estuary.

i didnt realise ye had it that bleak over there. makes you wonder why we spent 300 years fightin each other instead of our respective southerners.

At the end of the spit there's about 6 houses mostly belonging to lifeboat crew and their families. Sometimes in rough winter seas the road back is cut off for a few weeks. Wd make good Playboy of the Western World remake.

sounds just like home tbh- hence synge feel i guess

Can someone plz explain that family tattoo to me? I am just not getting it.

I thnk its something related to Duck & Cover and all that?

It's from Protect and Survive, a campaign put together in the late 70's in the UK to be played on television and radio in case of an imminent nuclear attack. There are 20 television spots/short films, and they have this aesthetic to them that I just find so beautiful and terrifying.

Here's the last and creepiest in the series. They all have that sound at the end. Good lord that sound.

dude that mix of morbidity and cartoonishness is like crazy unsettling.

The whole series is wonderful. And yeah, it creeps me out in a way that is just sooo compelling to me.

I know exactly what you mean! I am also morbidly fascinated by those things. British 70s PSAs in general were creepy as fuck - have you seen those kids safety ones where the kids all come to greif one by one on a farm? One drowns in a PIGSHIT SLURRY. D:

Oh god that one is mind-blowing.

that's "Apaches" and someone has cut together all the detah sequences here (charming):

The narrator for 'Protect & Survive' was Patrick Allen, and his voice is on Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 'Two Tribes'. He died a few years back, but a soundalike does the narration for X Factor ("It's time! To face! The end of the world! The music!")

Oh. My. God. That would have fucked me up if I saw that as a kid! WTF is it even warning you against? Leaving the house if you live on a farm?

Patrick Allen's a legend, also did the v/os for Reeves and Mortimer.

i feel like i understand the british people much better now

I still don't understand casual ties

that pig shit one is like o_O to the max.

casual ties:
