Wednesday Graffiti, sisi!

So this is wednesday… an these are the Graffitæ I shot yesterday. But first, for something completely different. Having noticed yesterday that I am feeling the spring in my step and the vitality of the fresh season, lets start out by a very vertical picture of a cherry blossom tree, as they are currently in full bloomin' and I just couldn't help it.

And now, back to business as usual:

Hear no, see no and say no — whatever.

Hitler fears for his balls as he stands in front of an imaginary firing squad of footballers about to kick him to death… or maybe just an ad for the upcoming production of the Producers…

Anything with cats works for me! (But what is that thing it's looking at?)

This bean is everywhere, sometimes on it's own, sometimes it's all just in your minds…

And that should conclude this particular segment of Wednesday! I hope you like, yes?

And some, most notably Mr Orban of Hungary, have used this excellent opportunity to pass new, restrictive legislation that concentrates power in their hands. There have been calls for the elusive COVID cure not to be patented. And yet… And yet… It's easy to lose yourself in a media bubble, following the news and media 24/7, following, queuing in line to get into expensive shops, just walking into discount stores and the constant desire for many drinks (preferably with 10 friends or more, in a park...

IGAF: Disappearing the inconvenient.

This IGAF (Is Goodness a Fashion) series explores, from a non-expert point of view, the social, economic and narrative ramifications I see developing from the COVID-19 crisis, worries, but also hopes for a future that the current shock to the system may result in. It's a pity that random things happen when random people interact. That a person might be exposed to unexpected, or unpleasant sights when they leave the house. That we might see trash, homeless people, the effects of gentrification, closed stores in polluted streets, trees withered by mercurial weather, people in environmental suits, afraid of the diseases lurking within the safe confines of those suits. The world divided into those who have to face the streets, the Outside, and those who are safe Inside. It's a pity that these still interact. Our measure as a species that claims moral, ethical and intellectual hegemony over this planet will be two-fold as we deal with the COVID-19 crisis: On the one hand, socie...
