Maybe pave over Arlington Cemetery?

Tuck right into that center hole of the Pentagon?

Or on 5th Avenue where Canks first daydreamed of murdering someone in public and getting away with it?

Had an absolutely wonderful games week but it must be said that post apocalypse the men are too emboldened to reincarnate the games industry boys clubs that created this wasteland. Bully your local.

Otokomi Lake, in Glacier National Park. Despite the apparent calmness of its waters, a storm is moving in from the east. The water is very transparent and reflects the sky, clouds, mountains and trees. Near the camera there is a natural dike made of tree trunks.

I don't understand why we tolerate and defend shitty people who made art we liked once.

We can have the experience of learning and feeling from the art and move on.

Life is about living and moving forward. Find another artist. Listen to new music.

Fuck the shitty people.

If you smell smoke, that’s us.
If you hear buzzing, that’s us too.
If you’re panicking - good.

P.S. We don’t knock.
