in 50,000 km, keep right

A view out the window of a spaceship. The window is tall, with rounded sides, and surrounded by a heavy metal frame. The gray wall of the spaceship, with various beams and bolts, is visible beyond the frame. Out the window is the starry black of space, with a bright white-gray moon in the center. We're pretty close to the moon. The surface shadows are sharp and visible. Clamped to the upper frame of the window is a small consumer GPS unit, the kind you'd have in your car, displaying the words "keep right" in white lettering, along with "50 thousand km". The GPS displays the usual pink route and arrows indicating how to get to the moon. In the lower left of the screen is a small round icon indicating that the local speed limit is 90km/h. Fortunately there are no cops in space, yet. Good luck out there, Artemis crew. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Robert Smalls

A page from an 1862 issue of Harper's Weekly showing, on the left, an engraving of Robert Smalls, a bearded young Black man in coat and tie looking forward, and on the right, the Planter, a small ship at rest on the water in front of a pier.

source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

Robert Smalls' birthday was yesterday; Smalls, who became one of the most remarkable figures of the Civil War, was born into slavery on April 5, 1839 in Beaufort, South Carolina.

After working as a sail-maker and longshoreman, Smalls achieved a position of responsibility as a pilot in Charleston Harbor. On the evening of May 12, 1862, Smalls and the enslaved crew of the CSS Planter, a small Confederate transport, had been left aboard the ship overnight.

They arranged for their families to visit and bring them dinner, then hide on the wharf. In the pre-dawn hours of May 13, they picked up their families and, with Smalls mimicking the Planter's captain (wearing his uniform and a straw hat) and delivering the correct hand signals, sailed out through Charleston Harbor past Fort Sumter. They then raised a white flag and delivered the Planter, four artillery pieces, and a naval code book into the hands of the US Navy.

Smalls, with his excellent knowledge of the harbor (including mine placement), began serving with the Navy as a consultant and civilian pilot. In August, 1862, he traveled to DC to help convince Secretary of War Edwin Stanton to allow Blacks to enlist in the US Army.

In 1864, Smalls was invited to Philadelphia to serve as an unofficial delegate to the Republican National Convention; following the war, he purchased his former enslaver's house in Beaufort after it was seized for non-payment of taxes. He used his savings, including significant prize money from the capture of the Planter, to form a short-haul horse-drawn railroad (with an almost entirely African-American board of directors) and start a newspaper in 1872.

Beginning in 1875, Smalls, who had learned to read while in Philadelphia, served five non-consecutive terms in Congress as a Radical Republican, including sponsorship of a (failed) amendment to integrate the Army.

Smalls is commemorated in a number of ways, including the Army transport vessel USAV Major General Robert Smalls and the Robert Smalls House, a National Historic Landmark in Beaufort. Smalls died of complications from diabetes in 1915.

A child's chalk drawing of a car on an asphalt walking path. The chalk is blue, there are shadows of thin tree branches crossing it and a single brown leaf covering the windshield or rear window of the car.

I went for a walk this afternoon. For the first time in a long time, my walk was completely unrelated to either patrolling my neighborhood, dealing with anxiety, or both. I made the specific decision to return to a former (rough) route that is outside my immediate neighborhood and to listen to music instead of be on high alert.

It was glorious. I listened to Saint Cloud by Waxahatchee, prompted by a friend who I reconnected with last night over dinner after a relatively short, yet significant deliberate stretch of time apart.

There were many chalk drawings on sidewalks, undoubtedly from yesterday when the afternoon was warm and families were gathered for Easter. Those all made me smile, but I was moved to photograph this lone car drawing on the walking path along Minnehaha Creek.

Hey

Screen capture from the 1984 film 'Night of the Comet.' Two young women sit on the hood of a police car, both of its front doors open. Downtown Los Angeles is behind them, the sky an eerie red. Subtitled dialogue text reads "Hey, I'm sorry if the end of the world makes me a little nervous."

Pysanka Time!

No alt provided

Mrs. Otaman was busy creating pysanky for customers & clients. I think she made about 36 just in the past week! I only got a few snaps of the leftover ones here. Top right is my favourite – a new design for this year. I also love the wonderful accident on the bottom left. This egg got some moisture inside during one stage of dyeing (my wife works on emptied eggs), and the moisture negatively affected how the blue dye adhered. The resulting starry-sky effect is really cool though, and I'm calling this the Artemis II egg.

@0y3ahSansAcut3 and if so, did Meatloaf leave a long-time bandmate to dangle after stating what everyone was thinking? Is that where Jack learned it?
0y3ahSansAcut3 23 hours ago
I used to draw the figure a lot. My comment was from watching Jack Black on SNL, then seeing a portrait of Meatloaf, in here. My brain came up with a striking resemblance. I have never followed or listened to either of these performers, except in a peripheral way.

Climbing up towards the round rock are two figures wearing robes. One of them is pointing to the rock, on which is hung a white sign that says "Do not disturb." The round white sun sits high in the sky. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman". Happy Easter.

The Flemish Clock

No alt provided
alt text
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

I stumbled on this big ass clock in the entryway of the Barcelona History Museum while exploring. It was built in 1576 and ran in the cathedral until 1864.

I’ve watched blacksmithing videos for years. I’ve always wanted to try forging but never really got around to it. Seeing this machine built almost entirely of forged steel was breathtaking. To give a sense of scale, I’m 5’10”/178cm and I was maybe crouching a little for this shot.

I thought the image was more interesting in negative so I didn’t convert to positive. Shot on a Minolta XD-11 with Kodak Tri-X pushed to 3200 and a 35mm lens.

What's Easter Rabbit for Bah Humbug?
ba

the more you know

This is a stylized, humorous comic drawn in a simple red-and-white color scheme.

Overall layout:
The image looks like a poster or PSA. Bold, all-caps text appears at the top and bottom, framing a single large illustration in the center.

Main illustration:
A cartoon person has just tripped off a curb and is shown mid-fall, sprawled awkwardly on the ground. Their body is exaggeratedly limp, with long, thin limbs stretched out in unnatural positions.

The absurd twist:

Their bones have popped out of their body and are scattered on the ground around them—arms, legs, and even a skull lying separately.
The character is looking down at the loose bones with alarm.
Two speech bubbles say:
“OH NO, ALL OF MY BONES!”
“THOSE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE INSIDE OF ME.”

Environment:

A sidewalk and curb are visible, indicating they tripped while walking down the street.
The background is minimal, with dotted shading to suggest ground texture.

Tone and style:

The drawing is simple and cartoonish, not graphic or realistic.
The humor is absurd and exaggerated, playing on an impossible scenario (bones ejecting from a body).
The bottom text continues the joke by pretending this ridiculous outcome is a real risk, warning people to “look before you step off curbs.”

It’s a parody of overly dramatic safety warnings—taking a mundane accident (tripping) and escalating it into something hilariously impossible and grotesque in a playful, non-serious way. '‎I ALL HAPPENS IN A HEARTBEAT. ONE MOMENT YOU'RE WALKING DOWN THE STREET. THE NEXT YOU'VE TRIPPED AND FALLEN AND EJECTED ALL OF YOUR BONES. ALLOFMY OHNO BONES! THOSE ARE SUPPOSED TO BEINSIDE E OFME. OF ME. 대대국식터다다습니 / من AND ALL YOUR CLOTHES FALL OFF toO AND YOU'RE NAKED, AND EVERYONE CAN SEE YOUR FLAPPY, EMPTY SKIN. ISIT IS WORTH THE RISK? IS IT WORTH THE SHAME? LOOK BEFORE YOU STEP OFF CURBS. ALL OF THIS STUFF CAN AND WILL HAPPEN.‎'‎
