took some pictures while walking to my mechanic's the other day
A street lined with telephone poles on the left. The road that runs down the middle of the photo dead-ends at the foot of a large hill/tiny mountain. Hill is covered it autumnal trees The hill in the background, still covered in trees. There are some roofs in the foreground and the red-and-white pole of a railroad junction is raised in the middle of the frame

just kidding it's the show you'd expect him to give, which is to say, great
Picture of Paul McCartney on stage from the crowd. People on stage are small, but you can see it's Paul because of big screens on the side of a stage showing a close up paul Extreme close up of Paul playing his bass. Photo is kind of grainy because of the extreme zoom but it's him all right

APNews If you think I smell bad you should just tell me to my face. You don't have to write an article and promote it to me. That's just passive aggressive and rude.
An Instagram post from APNews that is a sponsored post. The image is a black showerhead with water coming out of it. The caption reads "here's what to know about how to take a basic shower and indicators that you've gone too far...". The caption cuts off there

A screenshot of text from the about page for the now-defunct company ozy media. Ironically, the company was shut down after multiple charges of fraud. Quoted text: "That conviction is right in our name. Yup, it’s from the Percy Bysshe Shelley poem “Ozymandias.” And yup, most folks read that poem as a caution against big egos and the impermanence of power. We read it differently. To us, the poem says think big, but be humble , lest you end up “two vast and trunkless legs…in the desert.” We know that’s an unconventional interpretation. And that’s who we are. Because in a world littered with conformity, we like to see things differently. We hope, through OZY, you will too."

this reminded me of anderson .paak's "do not release my material posthumously" tattoo, and while looking it up again, I was excited to learn he also has a cool muppet tattoo!
two side-by-side images: the first is a shot of anderson .paak from the waist up, giving the peace sign. the second is the inside of his forearm. there are two tattoos. one reads "when I'm gone please don't release any posthumous albums or songs with my name attached. those were just demos and never intended to be heard by the public." above that tattoo is the muppet animal sitting behind his drum kit, arms raised in a v-shape

my time is here
a photo of a man with a beard standing in a park between trees with orange leaves. some of the leaves are on the ground. he's wearing a plaid shirt and a grey shawl-collared sweater. he's holding a starbucks cup (presumably with a pumpkin spice latte in it). This is the header image from the famous onion article, "Mr. Autumn Man Walking Down Street With Cup Of Coffee, Wearing Sweater Over Plaid Collared Shirt".

One of the bathrooms at my office has had 3 poorly framed Dylan posters on the wall, but someone recently added this inexplicable Beach Boys picture grid that has:

- one picture of Carl
- one of Brian
- two of Dennis
- two of David Marks (?!)
- three of the band
Four framed pictures on a wall. Three of them are of bob Dylan, like promotional pictures or posters that would come with a record. One is Dylan live at the buddokhan, one says circus and looks like it's maybe from the desire era (he's got a hat on, idk, I don't know Dylan), and the 3rd is maybe 80s Dylan? It's small and hard to make out in the photo. The fourth is a 3x3 grid of beach boys photos 9 trading card sized pictures of the beach boys in a frame. One is the cover of beach boys concert, one is a combo image of the covers of surfing safari and the endless summer camp, and one looks like it's from the 20/20 era, maybe? The rest are described in the skeet text
