My first mural update #2
alt text
This a couple of days ago. Nearing completion. It’s one of the few shots where the scissor lift isn’t in the way. Since then, I’ve done a lot more work and added lots of lines. Today I decided it to be finished. Tomorrow we’re going to add a top coat.
And on Saturday, there is going to be an official opening and neighborhood party, because two other murals in my neighborhood accidentally have been finished in the last two months as well. So we decided to team up our festivities.
If you’re in Rotterdam on Saturday, June 13, drop by at the corner of Assendelftstraat and Adamshofstraat. 15 PM sharp!
On Google Maps, you can still get a glimpse of what the previous rather dilapidated mural looked like. Nobody was happy with it:

It's beautiful. I wish it was in my neighborhood.
@joost thanx! I have to add I did take a little the most favorable spot to take a picture from. If you stand right in front of it a rather small tree is in the way. I do hope it won’t get too big 🙂
It’s so cute because there’s a school on the square as well, and every day these primary school kids come by and they all look at the mural for minutes and minutes, inspecting all the creatures and flowers I have put into it. It’s super rewarding.

Heather pink T-shirt with white text on the chest reading, “GET IN LOSER, WE’RE INSTALLING AN EXHIBIT,” alongside a simple line drawing of a scissor lift. A white “Museum Expo” logo appears on the right sleeve. The shirt is displayed flat against a light gray background.
Ha! Sent this to my wife who is currently installing a museum exhibit.
my nephew reading my copy of “cars and trucks and things that go”

phone pic: a young boy kneeling down on vinyl floor, looking at the children's picture book "cars and trucks and things that go", with two toy trucks and a bowl of blueberries next to him. to his right is a wicker basket and past the book is a blue blanket.
before my nephew was born, i mailed my childhood copy of the richard scarry classic to my brother as a christmas gift. this morning he texted me and said “noah has been insisting he eat blueberries and read ‘pig and momma’ this morning.” i was delighted.
my parents bought that copy of the book for me in ~1984 and the legend goes that i requested back-to-back re-readings of it on a daily basis. glad the tradition has continued.

@david_adams hah, SAME! when i texted my brother back, my first response was “GOTTA FIND GOLDBUG!”
@nikkuneko Is it fair to say that the hair runs in the family!

single-panel cartoon from luke mcgarry, reading "some reasons i won't listen to a band", with several illustrations below it:
"buff singer (or any buff members)", accompanied by a drawing of a beefy man in a yellow shirt holding up a mic
"one of them is wearing an apple watch", accompanied by a closeup of a keyboardist's hand on a keyboard, with an apple watch on the left wrist
"forest green guitar", accompanied by a tiger-striped green les paul style guitar
"pork pie hat (or baseball cap or newsboy cap... any hat really", accompanied by a man with shaved-head and a black porkpie hat
"they are the doors", accompanied by that one doors album cover with jim morrisson brooding shirtless.

I don't get the green guitar thing but I can think of pretty good examples backing the rest of them.
Gosh!

Used to be Fuji, then i graduated to Braeburn, then tried Envy but decided it was too pricey, before moving to Seattle and discovering Cosmic Crisp.
That held me until the store was out one week and I fell back to Envy, and decided life is too short to skimp on good apples.

Image of a public bathroom toilet in which the tile flooring is a mosiac of a large group of people looking at the person on the toilet with their hands in the air either supporting the person on the toilet with their upraised hands or giving them cheers of support, depending on interpretation. They are all smilling happily. The toilet seat is up.
Holy crap!? (Assuming those people are raising their hands in religious ecstasy)

My new band name.
After dropping my youngest at kindergarten, biked to office. While rising down to the parking place, something happened. I blacked out and only got my awareness some 20min later (it seems after crashing, I brought the bike to its parking place, overcame 4 fingertip control points + lift).
CAT scan was normal - it was a very warm morning and I changed from helmet to cap! One in a 100times.

My new band name.
2 weeks ago, after dropping my youngest in the kindergarten I took the usual bike ride to work. While descending the office garage, probably lost control of the bike (sand?). Don’t remember as I blacked out.
After some 20min I walked into my office (in the meanwhile parked the bike 2 floors down where i crashed, passed through 3 fingertip controls/barriers and took the lift) with no memory but some pain in the shoulder and head (of course that day I swapped my helmet to cap!).

Dang! Glad it wasn’t worse.
Oooouuuucccchhhh! Hang in there and here's to healing!
Oof, you must have hit that shoulder pretty hard. Glad you're otherwise ok and hope all heals well.

Lowrider Competition. ABQ, NM
alt text
A downtown scene at night, illuminated by streetlights. In the background, the facade of a turn of the century skyscraper with high arched windows on the first floor.
A lowrider, purple and brown with golden scrollwork painted on the side panel and golden hubcaps, launches itself skyward at a 45° angle, the nose high in the air. A clear plexiglass structure next to the car reads off heights in ten inch increments. The front of the car easily surpasses the tallest “120” reading.
In the foreground, separated from the car by chain link, is a crowd of people, many of them with their cell phones held aloft to capture the moment.

Lowriders compete to see how high they can jump in downtown Albuquerque on Saturday 6-June-2026.
The city closes down Central Ave - Route 66, the Mother Road - for a few blocks every weekend to accommodate the revelers. Here was a fenced off area for lowriders to strut their stuff.

A view of Akokala Lake at nautical twilight. The Livingston Range is in the background (and reflected in the lake). To the right is Numa Ridge. The peak in the far distance is Kintla Peak at 10,092 feel, and Reuter Peak on the left. Akokala Lake spots at about 4,750 feet.
View from my backcountry campsite at Akokala Lake on the North Fork of the Flathead side of Glacier. Kintla Peak (10,092') is in the far distance, with Reuter Peak closer in. I was the only one at camp, and by the looks of it, the first to stay overnight this year.
I'm still recovering post bronchitis and planned this shorter (5.8 mi each way) hike, since I could mote readily pace myself on foot then cycling. The trail was extremely muddy about a third of the way and then tied in with my first overnighter of the year, I'm feeling it today, but hey, my lungs are still moving the right direction, so that's something.

Film loop of Two custom lowrider cars facing off: a red white and blue one bounces straight into the air on hydraulic lifters, popping off all four hubcaps simultaneously when it lands, while the other (black) bounces erratically on diagonally opposed wheels, its dislodged front bumper flapping as a couple dozen dudes cheer from the sidelines

She's so good.
Crypto Bros are now moving to get their gambling on through the prediction markets and outright straight-up gambling now. They no longer feel the fig-leaf of "alternative currency" is necessary now that Republican Jesus no longer sees gambling as a sin, but instead as a way to bring you closer to being rich enough to get into heaven.

A handsome used dog of Boxer, Pit, and who knows what else with black fur and white paws laying on a field of grass. Happy as can be.
We said goodbye to one of the greatest dogs today. Lucky to have had him in our lives.
We gave him a good life after he came to us abandoned. I like to think he gave us a bit of life over the years. The epitome of “man’s best friend”, he’d follow you to the end of the earth and back. Six years is too short for the love we had and cancer just fucking sucks.
Edit: I just realized I've posted about him a few times over the years. That brings me joy. https://mltshp.com/search...
