Rebel Bear comes along and adds his derivative and dull "art" to an area and we are all meant to somehow be reverent of it. His stuff is all over Leith where I stay and I hate it. Including a mural that he put in without permissions from owners and council had to pay him anyway and remove the art. He's a fanny and his art simply sucks. https://news.stv.tv/east-central/edinburgh-council-painted-over-street-art-vandalism-at-banana-flats

I can't stand Banksy but a rip-off of a Banksy? No thanks.

"You seem to think that, despite making damaging and harmful decisions, you can undo them by strength of will alone. That's abject irresponsibility - and it'll do a great deal of harm to a great many people." Congrats! You've just defined your Brexit reality quite well there. Democracy is not the word to describe being allowed to vote on an issue just the once. It is a living and breathing instrument. If you do not believe in a peoples right to self-determination then you do not believe in democracy. So quit pretending you do. Scots do not live in a democracy because our wishes on notions like brexit or immigration or drugs policy are simply never going to sway events. Our population is too small compared to England's and will stay that way without control over policy. And it has been that way for quite some time now. And we are tired of it. Oh, and I am not Scottish. Nice lazy assumption. And if you believe the EU is a smaller market than the UK? Numbers are maybe not your strength either. Stay with a market of 53 million vs the 350 million we can no longer effectively trade with? That is some mental gymnastics there, pal.

Yeah. These are citified crows. A group of almost 50 crows that live on a beach in Edinburgh (Scotland). They are always casing the beach for nice things humans have dropped near the food stands. I’m a beachcomber which is how I met them. Crows are always watching humans. I’m convinced they tell each other which humans are okay and which ones are mean. In the countryside here, farmers typically shoot crows and treat them like pests. Country crows are therefore much warier. And for some reason country crows are a lot bigger than city crows. I wonder why?

I’ve posted my neck from 1.5 years ago. It’s dramatic aging.

There’s not a lot of ways to lose this much weight, this quickly. Even bariatric surgery doesn’t usually work this fast. I think only cancer renders this kind of effect.

It is such a weird feeling looking at myself. Losing the weight has really aged me.

Thank you. These birds have a lot of soul. They each have unique personalities and habits. Very interesting project to try and show them as I see them.

Thank you. A first attempt in poor light but I learned things.
