space photography is a weird case artistically b/c it's explicitly not intended to convey what the naked human eye could perceive but a heavily processed visualisation of data. so kind of more akin to like an anatomical diagram that has all the organs laid out neatly so you can see what the hell you're doing. but then space photography is also a weird case scientifically b/c it has aesthetic dimensions that account for its popular reception & also guide the data processing. like the choice of colours, saturation, &c are intended to produce a pleasing picture, & the picture is put to rhetorical ends: usually a kind of generic humanist delight with the advancement of (gov't) space exploration. so in that sense the space photograph is specifically most like the anatomy in eg a vesalius plate: an artistic piece, used to defend a certain metaphysics wrt 'man's place in nature' &c. not exactly an untrue image but certainly an artificial one (as in: the product of artifice; of an artistic process; not intended to provide a simple 1:1 visual translation of nature but to interpret & advance an argument about it)

Speaking of songs from shows I'm not into, It's Over Isn't It is still one of the Best Musical Moments I've ever heard. The yearning the inability to move on the confusion. Delicious

Consider: A quaint little botique called Weird Wizard Shit, which is mainly a second-hand bookstore that mainly buys and sells books and occasionally other paraphernalia that's got anything to do with mythology, fantasy, supernatural, paranormal, magic or anything of the sort. There's three shop cats that are all named after different famous wizards or sorceresses, and a fancily framed "employee of the month" sign on the wall, featuring one of the cats (changes monthly depending on which one has been the best behaved recently). There is no sign anywhere advertising the fact that the shop also has the rights to serve alcohol, but you can get a shot of vodka if you know how to ask.
There's also a secret passage to a backroom in the shop, where they display an sell weird bongs. But you've got to know which bookshelf is the secret door, and the seller won't tell you if you ask unless you show ID.

There is some pretty shocking footage out there of the Baltimore bridge collapse early this morning. I've already seen some incredibly wrong, incredibly insensitive Hot Takes about how shitty the bridge was to have fallen after being bonked by a boat, etc
Please don't be that person.
The facts will come out. Speculation is silly. In addition to loss of life, the Francis Scott Key bridge was a major arterial in that region's highway system. Its loss will be felt for years, and not just to daily commuters.
Baltimore harbor is closed. No shipping at all. This will impact supply chains in ways we cannot even assess yet.
It's pretty fucked up.
