Screenshot from the film Citizen Kane where two different newspaper headlines are revealed after losing the election: Kane Elected - can't use that, so this one? - Fraud At The Polls - yeah

A long, long time ago . . .
A pugnacious, self-satisfied, dick-head stoned ex-mime lounges off camera during a shoot, circa 1985.

When In Doubt Get Horizontal - Anytime Can Be Naptime. Four photos show the same person having naps on their cluttered desk, in a garden amongst some freshly planted vegetables, on a couch in front of a TV with the crossword puzzle and on the floor of a cocktail party surrounded by several pairs of judgemental feet.

The classic Obama HOPE poster style but with the image of that disgusting fat orange lying bastard from Hell and beneath his demented Nazi fuck face is the word: PEDO. It fits - both the poster and the whole thing. We could also make these but with different words, like: CHILD FUCKER or LOSER or DIE IN JAIL. Choose your own. Fun for the whole family.

Black and white photo showing John Cleese in mid-silly walk, facing off against Bruce Lee with his own leg raised in a kung fu pose. My money's on Cleese.

Frame grab from the movie Iron Giant, as the character Dean (voiced by Harry Connick Jr.) hides behind a newspaper as an oncoming wall of water is about engulf him. The headline on the newspaper reads: Disaster Seen As Catastrophe Looms

A photo of Otto The Autopilot from the film Airplane!, with the caption: "I was watching Airplane! with my son and he told me this looks like Charlie Kirk. Now I can't unsee it."

bring the marshmallows
A painting entitled The Burning Ship by Albert Bierstadt c. 1871 - a small group of people and their reasonably sized boats gather on a beach and watch as a huge fucking bloated vessel of conquest and commerce burns brightly, merrily and with an unquenchable rage against the injustices of every greedy motherfucker on the planet. Don't forget to bring some marshmallows.

Toshiro Mifune offers a happy toast with a big smiles and raised glass. He's wearing a nice striped shirt and a pair of white underpants.

snow

we haz it
In the Parkdale garden we call Tralfamadore, the leaves are still green yet covered in a light dusting of snow, as is the table and chairs. Very pretty.

Post you from a different era.
Photo from 1985 showing puppeteers Tim Gosley and Rob Mills in the original Fraggle Rock studios, being very pleased with themselves.

maybe it's a British thing
Famous photo of Queen Elizabth on horseback reviewing the Guard - one of whom has passed out from the others and lays sprawled out on the ground before her.

Photo of Kate McKinnon as Hilary Clinton in an SNL sketch parodying a scene from the film 'Love Actually' - they are standing outside the front door on a snowy street, holding a sign that reads: "He Will Kill Us All". I'm gonna go now and drink a lot of gin.

The wheel turns slowly but it does turn and we eventually find ourselves in a place where hate and cruelty are, at least temporarily, muted enough that we may simply rest easy (for a moment), and with a sigh say: Good.
Legendary photo of the legendary Lee Miller, taking a quick bath in Hitler's residence after the fall of Berlin, 1945. Personally, I wouldn't want to get in there - and I sure wouldn't bathe in anything Dick Cheney might have used. Hitler is dead. Good. Cheney is dead. Good. Ok then. Let's keep going.

Simple Pleasures Are The Best
Photo of mass murderer Dick Cheney, flashing his smug grin - above him the headline which reads: Dick Cheney Dead. Good.

Photo of a computer punch card - a technological evolutionary iteration of programming preceding the use of electromagnetic or optical media (disks) - which was itself preceded by the works of Jacquard, Babbage & Lovelace. We used to make fun of the kids in high school who were always lugging around a big arse textbook with the word FORTRAN on the cover and clutching a stack of punch cards wrapped with an elastic band. They're probably very rich by now.

A photo of the Glory Hole Doughnut shop in Parkdale, Toronto - now sadly closed, it was a mainstay in our neighbourhood for yummies.
