World is crazy beautiful. So are you.

Sunset over a building in Toronto. Sky is blue, pink, red, orange. On the right is a wall that goes up in a slightly dramatic angle, on the left is a kinda boring/ugly concrete building that looks sort of ok in the flattering golden light I guess. This is all framed by trees by the way. The whole thing is slightly hazy/out of focus which is mostly because I'm kinda bad at taking pictures. If you read all this alt text, this post was about you specifically.

🎵 I can live and breathe and see the sun in winter time🎵

Very bright sun breaking through clouds on a cold late winter/early spring day in Canada. Signifying hope perhaps, or just the importance of a good pair of sunglasses in all seasons. Also visible are some trees, power lines, cars, houses and a sort of medium tall building in the distance. Cheers!

Sitting in the back of a mostly empty dive bar, drinking a Moscow Mule while Sonic Youth plays on the jukebox. Sometimes life's ok.

A bar in Torontos Parkdale neighborhood called Motel, if you're ever there, or you live there now, check it out. Cheap drinks and cool tunes, the perfect bar!

One of the many things I love about Toronto is all the cool street art

Colorful mural covering an old brick building in Toronto, it's an aquatic theme with a giant octopus and lots of fish and coral and such. The sun is shining directly on it as if to say "hey, check this out!" There is a sign above the door that says 530 Rear. I think it's probably a restaurant or bar of some sort but Im not entirely sure, whatever it is it looks cool as hell. I hope you had fun looking at it and if you read all this alt text you rock. See you next time! (Smiley face)

They may have given up hope, but I never will

Yahoo news alert on my phone that reads 'Breaking News: Coast Guard calls off search for missing fish' The actual story was about a fishing boat but the phone alert cut off the headline in the funniest way possible

Call me crazy but I love this weather. Took these in a blizzard we had in Toronto a few weeks ago.

Very snowy day in Toronto, centered on a cool looking old brick building next to a bus stop, first floor is an a&w burger place. A few people are making their way slowly down the street

Almost whiteout conditions in Toronto blizzard, you can sort of see traffic lights and a lone ghostly figure in the distance.

Another view of snow covered streets in a residential area in Toronto, there's a few cars that probably won't be moving for a while and some cool looking trees, branches heavy with, you guessed it, more snow

Nighttime pic of my street. Cars and garbage cans are almost half buried in snow and you can see streetlights stretching off into the distance. Kinda moody and dramatic. If anyone read all these alt texts, you rock

Tonight let's take a moment to reflect on the true meaning of this holiday and the man who made it all possible, gone too soon but forever in our hearts. After all, there wouldn't even be a Christmas if Ernest P. Worrel didn't save it for all of us.

The cover of the movie Ernest Saves Christmas. Fun fact, as a kid my family tradition was to watch this every Christmas Eve so this corny movie will always have a special place in my heart.

post an album that changed your musical outlook This is the first CD I ever bought, and the start of my shift into metal/punk/alternative music in my teen years. The first time I really listened to something no one else in my family liked and started to form my own musical identity.
