It’s not the first time, and it won’t be the last—President Donald Trump was a little too eager to claim he had ended an international conflict.

On Friday I found someone local to me selling a Bowens Illumitran 3 slide copier (I plan on modifying it a bit to try using it with a DSLR for "camera scanning" negatives). While I was there, I asked if he had any other photography/darkroom related equipment for sale. He said:
"Well, my neighbor was a photographer who sold his work at shows/conventions all over the country and, when he passed, his wife gave me a lot of his supplies. I've sold most of it, but I still have tons of frames, museum/conservation frame glass, and a few other things if you'd like to take a look."
He gave me a price I couldn't say no to and said I could take "as much as I could fit in my car". I walked away with:
- ~50 unused, hand-made, hand-stained wood frames of various sizes
- An incredible amount of glass (I can't even guess how much)
- A very nice mat board cutter,
- ~20 boxes of new frame hardware
- A new, unused roll of backing paper.
It looked like I burglarized a frame shop.

The social media conundrum 2025 - 3dcsocial
I have not posted that much recently about social media in general because of the continuing dissatisfaction many people have continually shown about social med3dcadmin (3dcsocial)
Israel does not represent the entire Jewish population. Many Jews choose not to live there for obvious reasons. Many strongly oppose the occupation and displacement of the Palestinian people.
Targeting Jewish civilians solely because they are Jewish is #antisemitism, regardless of what happens in Gaza, the settler violence in the occupied Palestinian Territories, or the state-mandated terrorism against Palestinians by all Israeli regimes (Left and Right) since 1948. They are all forms of evil.
[…] Every Jew is not responsible for every decision made by the Israeli government. The right to live free from fear in Australia should not depend on a person’s politics, their views on the Middle East, or their religion.

After the Bondi attack, all Australians must support the right of Jews to live without fear
Long before the shocking killings in Sydney, the threat of antisemitic violence was often left unchallenged. That must changeGeorge Newhouse (The Guardian)
“Muslim immigrant”
Erasing Palestinian identities is a familiar practice in Israeli media; it seems to be a habit they can’t shake. #Ynet—Israel’s mainstream gutter press, which peddles #xenophobia daily, has this masterpiece today: a headline that simply says “Australia salutes Ahmed,” with no surname and details buried inside a lengthy story about Jewish victims and comments by friend and family—none of whom are apparently immigrants in Australia.

📣 Call to action: asanb.noblogs.org/?p=14748 - @oat_hsh
Come protest against racist ableist police brutality with us!
In November, a 12 year old Deaf girl was seriously injured by police shooting. Her mother and brother were forcefully fixated by police and had to witness the brutality against their daughter and sister.
Both are also Deaf, the brother using serbian and the mother german sign language.
This is an attac on all of us, on our disabled and migrant siblings!
The attac clearly shows how race, gender and ability intersect. And it shows, how children and FLINTA* people are valued less in our society.
We want to oppose those who profit off of our discrimination.
We want to resist against a state and its police, who are committing such horrible crimes against us.
Let’s unite and protest together!
Speeches in sign and spoken languages are welcome (please contact us)
In solidarity,
the anti-ableist action

I saw a lot of this in socal, I figured it was bugs but was absolutely FASCINATED by the patterns, love your alt text 😊 glad I'm not the only one who had that thought - would make a good sci-fi story premise, "nature sending an encrypted message that we failed to decode" (but why was it encrypted? were they trying to warn us, or trying to keep a message to someone else, hidden FROM us? 🤔 )
I don't think I have a good pic, but one one hike I found a handheld-size portion of branch that had some of these patterns on it, kept it as a souvenir, still have it, just so frickin' cool ^_^

Kingston On Murray Cemetery, South Australia, September 2025.
While exact founding dates are sparse, burials recorded as early as the late 19th century suggest the cemetery has served the region for well over a century.
The cemetery reflects the settlement history of Kingston-on-Murray, a small Riverland town known for its agricultural heritage and proximity to the Murray River. Many interments represent pioneering families, local farmers, and community figures.

Here's an alt-text description of the image:
The image is a close-up shot of a person with short brown hair and a beard, wearing a dark collared shirt, looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. The background appears to be an outdoor setting, possibly a driveway, with parts of vehicles visible. There is a white SUV and a dark truck in the background, partially out of focus. Overlaid on the image is a block of white text with black lettering.
The text reads: “With all the furor over the Epstein files, I’d like to point out that a bunch of powerful men abused young girls and the only person in jail is a woman. Time to change that, don’t you think?”
