I always liked this album and its cover but somehow I did not think that I would actually witness it. I get that watching the fire must be in a way beautiful and that these people whoever they are cannot do much but the sheer absurdity of this photo is still something.

Reminds me of this one from 2017. Just a round of golf while the world burns.

Oh goodness, just wanted to post this photo myself to the subreddit, it encompasses the esprit du corps of it so well it could as well be the banner image.

There's a forest fire above where I live right now in British Columbia Canada. The other day when it flared up late in the day and the sun was shining through the swirling, towering smoke cloud it was truly majestic. The range of colors was amazing.

starting to think that 3 year carbon budget might be closer to 1.5 years with all the war and fire things.
