Lair of the Sea Serpent, Elihu Vedder

going back to work tomorrow after vacation.

Some kind of potency in this, I was thinking that the sea serpent is clearly huge, but the wide expanse of sand and sea puts the whole thing in perspective, the sea serpent is humbled. and near to the ground. More dangerous because it's real. Why isn't it in the sea? hurt, dying? or it soaks up the sun?

"We are probably going to see superpowers divvying up the globe between them—China and the U.S.—and it's still a bit unclear what will happen with Russia, whether it will be a player in its own right or even more dependent on China." https://www.newsweek.com/trump-putin-map-china-xi-2058157

The end of the EU? Maybe not. War is threatening to end any economic prosperity, international law, peace and security: deregulation has unleashed the beast, but any beast can be killed, caged, die or turned against itself; eat its own tail. #ouroboros #TertiaryTotalitarianism

@caity first time I saw it - it came complete with butt cracks! 😳 There had been some sort of problem early on and the maintenance crew were inside the space fixing stuff.

I have since revisited it on several occasions. Interesting during the day but glorious at night.
