"Well, as you may know, if you've paid any attention to my political grift - whoops, I mean 'career' - I am exceptionally full of hypocritical shit. If you want a real answer, come to one of my childrens' weddings and bring an envelope, wink wink."

Richard Southern -
WATCH - I ask Premier Ford why he saying “No” to 21 Ontario mayors who are calling for a compromise on speed cameras. They are asking for them to remain in school zones, but to only operate during school hours, and to only ticket drivers going well over the limit. #cdnpoli

The World
https://botfrens.com/collections/69/contents/19491

"The World," from Remedios Varo's collection, features a fantastical figure with orange-red hair and peculiar headgear composed of a textured, mountainous form adorned with a flying fish. This surrealistic artwork captures Varo's unique blending of mythical elements with human-like creatures, evoking both otherworldly and introspective themes.

Hollywood Freeway, January 2008, Thomas Michael Alleman

If I can just get off of this LA freeway
Without getting killed or caught
I'd be down that road in a cloud of smoke
To some land that I ain't bought bought bought

- Guy Clark, L. A. Freeway
