I was looking through my email for something, and I somehow ended up looking at photos I had emailed myself in the past, back before I had a smart phone (shoutout to my Sony Ericsson!! Its name was Trevor!!) and couldn't just use the cloud or whatever. It was really wild looking through them all, most of them taken between 2012 and 2014, when I was in college in Tucson.

Back then I used to wander around and take random photographs of things I liked the look of. So... not much different from nowadays. But one thing I loved in particular was taking panorama photos!

You take a pano on the Sony Ericsson by taking a photo, moving the camera, trying to align the edge of one with the edge of the next, taking another photo, moving the camera, and then auto-compositing the three together with a heavy blur. The effect is usually... fine... but sometimes it's really, really obvious how the photos were taken, and the seams are pretty unnatural.

Some even get a spooky effect, depending on how your position changes, leading to a slightly-off look that doesn't immediately read as wrong, just weird.

And of course:

You can just stitch three random photos together into a weird composite. This was something I remember loving to do, but the was the only example I could find.

Sometimes 2014 seems like last week, and sometimes it feels like 75 years ago, kinda like these photos. I don't really have a point, but I'm getting nostalgic, and I love random street photography.

(You could also take panos vertically, but it creates a real "do you love the color of the sky" situation, so it's under a readmore.)

I don't know if I really miss living in Tucson, but some days... yeah...

Revealing that split ends have grown 50% stronger in just the past decade, a new study published Friday by researchers at the L’Oréal Academy warned that overuse of hair detangler was giving rise to new product-resistant supertangles. “When hair detangler was first developed, we arrogantly assumed we would be living in a world without snagging, but now we face an even bigger threat to smooth, silky hair,” said study author Vicki Zhou, explaining that decades of reliance on hair-detangling technology has led to the evolution of supertangles, which can survive the standard chemicals used to improve follicle manageability.

I need to share this with you because twitter is the worst best thing right now

lavish illusions

a collection of concrete faces,

drones with neatly ironed greetings

smooth all the way round -

what changes shape without your telling it to.

a chess board robbed to make just,

waiting to be toppled,

and wearily taken in.

we shift with deftness,

we break up in water -

circles amounting to rather tiny steps

departing.

I know the dark interiors entrapped

in our great-machine gaps,

the openings of our supertangled

interiors - weights heavier

than an eternity of breath

gasping at your ear.
