@piknyc adulting big time by snapping up the most beautiful bride of them all. Fairy tale wedding. 💒
Wes Anderson kind of spirit, this town.
Cubism is one of the most influential avant garde art movement in 20th century Europe, pioneered by Picasso. Czech's version of it reflects largely in the form of objects and architecture with unnecessary shape structure. If one were to put Charles & Ray Eames mid century modernism on one end of design spectrum cubism rightfully sits on the opposite end of it. These stairs come from the Cubist Museum, also known as House of the Black Madonna.
when in Karlstejn, eat black ice cream.
A month before Burton passed a couple in my SF neighborhood gave me valuable advice: "you don't love your dog any less by adopting a new one right after he passes. they'd be lucky to be out of shelters and be in your care. you have proven the capacity to love and care for creatures and you can do it again. even when you don't feel so ready, your new dog and you will heal each other. the bond will be beautiful and unique and will never replace the significance of your first dog." I definitely needed Sage more than she needed me. It's been a little over a month and she's grown braver than ever. I did too. Sage - what a fitting name.
10 years after the big bike accident that tore my collar bone out, I'm now finally taking a step to formally acknowledge going back to biking again, recreationally anyway ... but first: get a helmet.
isn't it magical that we can see history imbued in a place through architecture? what was and what is all in the same frame. #artdeco #coffeeshopsnob
do not lean on things (on people) that slide away it's written on the door and yet we do it we lean in we take refuge then the door slides and we fall told you so, said the door been telling you since day one I only do one thing don't lean.
Throwback to freestyle summer in tempelhof with these kooks .. I'll be spending 3 weeks I'm Berlin July-Aug soon. Europe friends.. holla if you are in the hood. would love to see you 😘
Nothing says BK vibe like July 4th rooftoping. @airvonb 's backyard is fireworks in its own right. Always delicious too.
throwback to the most rainbow day a few years ago. #loveislove #worldpride #bewhoyouare personal goal: get back to that smile. I'm almost there. I can see it in the distance.
fantastic branding. (do you see what I see?)
sometimes I wonder why I live in big cities when tiny little nothingness brings me so much joy.
a crossroad. a metaphorical view of Brooklyn. today I complete 100 days of meditation. it is in fact only 99/100. one day was missed. not on purpose. but symbolic of "Wabi Sabi" nonetheless. 侘寂 - a world view centered on the beauty of that which is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete. the crossroad of the struggle to achieve perfection vs the celebration of not having done so.
say hello to #stephaniarotundifolia aka #mountainturtleplant. this variety hails from the motherland (south east Asia). it's growing so well. can't wait for the vine to take shape. #rareplants
Asked how the employees feel about the company's role in the public eyes, and I got the answer I expected. "Yea, we should have done something about deep fake. But what exactly? Once you start digging into how to detect, prevent, essentially solve for fake anything you'll find that every possible approach has elements of false positive." This is true. It is easy to complain when you don't know how things work. I have an artificial intelligence mini degree. It was hard. I can see why what we are facing is not a tech issue. Ai amplifies human fallacies. It boils down to philosophical stance on truth, and truth is never a single story.
