yeah, it could be the liar guard's desire or prime directive to send you down the deadly path. to him that could be interpretated as the correct path. especially if these are automatons working off of some machine logic. like, they don't even need to be out to get you, that's totally something that bad code could do on accident.

 

one of the three cats I was watching at my friend's house while he and his partner were away last week.

rocky was hard to get a good shot of the whole time I was there. the largest of the three, he likes to keep the house in order.... from a distance. he wouldn't let me get close with the camera. always watching me, but from just around a corner like he is here. I think maybe the curtain helped him feel better about my camera trying to steal his soul.

a real sweetheart when he felt like it, but that camera really seemed to put him off. funny thing, despite being the largest, he had the softest/highest meow.

was house sitting for a friend and his 3 cats. he left a pair of his pants out for his old boy to nap on while he was away.

tragically I forgot to set my camera to silent shutter mode before taking this picture. in capturing this coziness I ruined it by startling him awake 😢.

 

Luka likes to bury her face into my hand sometimes. it's the best.

this feels like a meme format, but I don't know what it would say.

holy shit, i forgot that was Colin Farrell! i'm a big fan of him in mcdonagh movies.

i was only kind of into the new Batman with the riddler, but the vibe feels right for it to be more of a mob story instead.

love the cinematography. I'm a videographer myself and happen to own and love one of the old lenses they use a lot on this show.

one episode isn't enough to make any judgements, but I can say that I'm looking forward to the next episode.

just by the by, the Japanese name for it SHOULD just translate to "naked festival" the "man" is an English inclusion.

en, your mileage may vary on portrait mode. fur is what is struggles the most with. personally I'd go for getting close and letting the natural depth of field shine through for what it's worth. most phones are at like an f:/2.8. they can have natural bokeh, they're just ultra wide angle so you gotta get close.

it may just be me, but those wonky edges make it look worse than if it just didn't have the effect at all.

i mean, this is one way to win a war. the other is with bombs and death. Russia chose to enter this war, it shouldn't be surprised when it affects its citizens.

no one should get to keep their war over seas and out of their own borders.

imagine a future where we could stop wars by just taking people's jobs...
