So rad.
As many of you probably know, Toronto’s Yonge Street is dubbed as one of the longest streets in the entire world. Two photographers decided to walk from the intersection of Yonge St & Wellington St (in Aurora) south along Yonge until they hit Lake Ontario. It took them about 14 hours to walk over 42 kilometers, while taking photos...

Rebuild.

This isn’t a New Year’s Resolutions post. It’s a post about a fundamental mistake that I’ve made, and that some other people will make in the coming year.
You can’t fix yourself. You have to rebuild.
Unless you’re supremely lucky, you’ve probably gone through something in life that broke you. Not permanently, maybe not even visibly, but there has been one, or many experiences...

Walk, don't run.
I had an interesting thought the other day which naturally lead to an even more interesting conversation tonight. Does it kind of suck being in that limbo between people? A. likes you but you only sort of think she’s okay, but you (B.) like C. and you think she’s absolute gold but you just can’t get her to notice you. I could do a diagram of this but I’m far too lazy right...

At once very complex and incredibly simple. I wasn’t aware that the SX-70 film packs contained a battery as well. Ingenious.
I want to get mine working so bad. Where can I find these old film packs?!

Time machines.
I logged into my hotmail account after years of neglect. Its as if I hopped into a time machine and the g-forces tore open old wounds. Would I learn anything new with a Delorean and a flux-capacitor or would I just relive a moment, revisit the same thing as a fix?

Dogma (1999)
Nun: Let me get this straight: you don't believe in God because of "Alice in Wonderland"?
Loki: No, "Through the Looking Glass". That poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter," that's an indictment of organized religion. The walrus, with his girth and his good nature, he obviously represents either Buddha, or, or with his tusks, the Hindu elephant god, Lord Ganesha. That takes care of your Eastern religions. Now the carpenter, which is an obvious reference to Jesus Christ, who was raised a carpenter's son, he represents the Western religions. Now in the poem, what do they do? What do they do? They, they dupe all these oysters into following them and then proceed to shuck and devour the helpless creatures en masse. I don't know what that says to you, but to me it says that following these faiths based on mythological figures ensures the destruction of one's inner being. Organized religion destroys who we are by inhibiting our actions, by inhibiting our decisions out of, out of fear of some, some intangible parent figure who, who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years ago and says, and says, "Do it... do it and I'll fuckin' spank you."
