Vote Pita Limjaroenrat #5 - Banner in Bangkok's Khlong Toei Neighbourhood.
On 14 May 2023, young Thai voters delivered a shocking blow to the neo-liberal establishment, royalists and the military by rewarding Pita Limjaroenrat's Move Forward Party, with150 of the 500 seats in parliament, 10 more seats than the next largest party. Move Forward has made it clear it wants progressive change and radical reform of the country's institutions.
A few days after the election, seven parties agreed to go into coalition with Move Forward, which should make Pita the country's new prime minister, except that the establishment are now apparently resorting to every trick to prevent him, with a spurious charge regarding share ownership in a media company, although Pita has pointed out that it hasn't operated as a media company since 2007.
At this year's Pride on 4 June, Pita promised same sex marriage rights for the LGBTQ community. He also also promised to back a rise in the minimum wage, protections for migrant workers and to cap energy tariffs.

For possibly the first time in history Kelly Ann Conway spoke the truth when she advised all of us to "Judge Trump by what's in his heart, not what comes out of his mouth." Here's a taste:
"At a rally in December 2015 in Mount Pleasant, S.C., Trump defended his plan for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims" by comparing it with former president Franklin Roosevelt's decision to inter Japanese Americans during the Second World War.
That shameful action marked one of the darkest periods in our nation's history and our President Elect thinks it was a good idea ?. The interment at Manzanar was photographed by the legendary Ansel Adams, and it was his beautiful image taken at Manzanar with Mr. Williamson in the background that prompted me to shoot this one. The unending, unfeeling hardness of the stones says a lot.
So, "Yes," Ms. Conway, we will carefully follow your inadvertent yet good advice. And with apologies to Joseph Conrad, we'll read his Heart of Darkness for exactly what it is.

The Blacko Drngo (Dicrurus macrocercus) is a small Asian passerine bird of the drongo family Dicruridae. It is a common resident breeder in much of tropical southern Asia from southwest Iran through India and Sri Lanka east to southern China and Indonesia. It is a wholly black bird with a distinctive forked tail and measures 28 cm (11 in) in length. Feeding on insects, it is common in open agricultural areas and light forest throughout its range, perching conspicuously on a bare perch or along power or telephone lines. The species is famous for its aggressive behaviour towards much larger birds, such as crows, never hesitating to dive-bomb any birds of prey that invades its territory. The informal name of King Crow is based on this behaviour. Smaller birds often nest in the well-guarded vicinity of a nesting Black Drongo. Previously considered a subspecies (Dicrurus adsimilis macrocercus) of the African Fork-tailed Drongo (Dicrurus adsimilis), it is now recognized as a full species.

I took this photo on a cold spring morning as the mallards were landing and taking off at the lakeshore in Barrie, Ontario. This little guy had just left the water to parts unknown.
"She comes out in painted splendour,
The succubus, the temptress, witch...
In her head the she-cat roars and she must go and find
the one she calls to on the night wind,
To lye down with and caress and steal
his breath away...
Her song he hears and he is overcome with it...
At night she she is alive..a cloak of long dark red hair and lowered
panther eyes...a growled purr in his ear, she lets him
know he is to be branded with her essence...
And he opens himself to her and takes her within...
Only for him to awake and see she is gone in the fingers of
dawn reaching across his bed...
The candle spits and goes out as the last of her scent
leaves with it...
Her spell of magic and power empowers him to
wait again for her night after night...
til once again, he finally sleeps and dreams,
His moonlight call has been heard...
And she is there with glowing green eyes,
to once again bond with his soul."

I believe Your love is faithful
When all my hopes have crumbled
It is standing strong and able
When everything else fails
I believe Your love will cover me
Through every storm
I am persuaded
Nothing in life
Nothing in death
No mountain high
No ocean depth
No power below
On earth or above
Can separate me from Your love.
I believe beyond a shadow
You will never forsake me
And Your love endures forever
When all my strength is gone
I believe your love will carry me
And hold me close
I am persuaded
Nothing in life
Nothing in death
No mountain high
No ocean depth
No power below
On earth or above
Can separate me from Your love.

Frühling in Wiesbaden am 16. März 2014 am Rande des Warmen Damm zwischen Wilhelmstraße und Parkplatz des Hessischen Staatstheaters.
Im Hintergrund ist das Hotel Nassauer Hof und die Rückseite der Theaterkolonnade zu sehen. Hinter den Forsythien versteckt ist das ehemalige Café Wagner.

Weehhh….it's 6 o'clock in the morning right now and I woke up at 5. Today I have no plans at all besides to draw. But since I've opened my computer, this song echoes all the time in my head.
The summer sun, it blows my mind
Is falling down on all that I've ever known
Time will kiss the world goodbye
Falling down on all that I've ever known
Is all that I've ever known
A dying scream makes no sound
Calling out to all that I've ever known
Here am I, lost and found
Calling out to all
We live a dying dream
If you know what I mean
All that I've ever known
It's all that I've ever known
Catch the wheel that breaks the butterfly
I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide
I tried to talk with God to no avail
Calling Him in and out of nowhere
Said if You won't save me, please don't waste my time
All that I've ever known
All that I've ever known
It's all that I've ever known
Catch the wheel that breaks the butterfly
I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide
I tried to talk with God to no avail
Calling my name and out of nowhere
Said if You won't save me, please don't waste my time
The summer sun, it blows my mind
It's falling down on all that I've ever known
Time will kiss the world goodbye
Falling down on all that I've ever known
Is all that I've ever known

In the garden irises are flowering
in colours of yellow, purple and blue
as if something to them are happening
some are mixed in yellow and purple too
and some are mauve, or some are somewhat brown,
I wonder if other flowers I will see
where magnificent they grow on their own,
while the weavers are singing constantly
in a kind of solemn serenity.

“Probably the happiest period in life is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday.” ~ Thomas Arnold
The cherry blossom viewing is still available in the northern part of Kanto area. More than 80-year-old cherry tree was in bloom at the old Buddhism temple called IOU-JI that was founded in 8th century. The main hall of the temple in the image above was re-stored in 1665.

Thank you for viewing. Have a peaceful weekend.
