Official: Post a Picture of Yourself

What do you wish was your buddy? I saw a park there and a lake and perhaps someone fishing?

Lol no, nobody fishes in that pond.

I tried to take pictures of fishes but the camera didn’t capture them.

Might be easier to get a cat… ; )

…or foster a neighbors’

…or make like Dr. Doolittle.

You are not a smiler… like I - better to capture the mood at that time, than to capture an enforced smile or God-awful grin… whoever thought that that was the way forward in photography? :laughing:

I like old photos where people are dead stern. That speaks to me.

Maybe I will get a cat someday, or even a dog. Right now I have my hands full with my tomato plants.

It is nice to know that I make you laugh - lol. It looked to be more of a man-made lake to me. We have one in a beautiful park a few towns away. Beautiful lake. But what of the buddy?

I have a theory that the smile was a cold war phenomenon. You see it emerge in the 50s. It was the West’s way of saying: “See? Our way of life makes us happy!”

…and how are they coming along? I have room to grow herbs, but nothing bigger, and certainly not anything that would warrant constant care… my own self-care being a constant work in progress - I might grow things with pretty flowers… courgettes etc, as they wouldn’t look amiss inbetween the shrubs or growing in a retro tin trough… and maybe some peas. :-k

…but the fact that it carried on into domestic photograpy is what gets me… :neutral_face:

“Smi-ile”! No… fuck off. =;

Yeah, well, trends stick around.

Why?
I like old photos too which go waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy back. It almost seems to be a bit like time traveling. If only we could…

What you need to do then is learn to multi-task. Pets and tomato plants are not at odds.
Perhaps in your travels, keep a look out, you may come upon a poor abandoned cat or kitten like I did. Take him or her in after having first dropped him or her lol at the vet for a spin.

He/she is out there waiting for you. If you choose to see it as your destiny, well, that is just fine. If not, make the poor thing your destiny. This is how it is done anyway.

Recents Photo…

me at 225 lbs

For some reason I pull it off well still, oh well…

Oh Ecmandu, your eyes are overflowing with sadness, what has brought about such deep misery?

Being subjected to many horrors above and beyond

Emandu is still posting pictures of himself. NIce. I’m so happy for you guys.

I was trying to show my white hairs that I earned, but apparently they didn’t show in the picture

One of the best things I have ever read. The sudden realization after going through old posts, to agree to disagree being the best part of philosophy and understanding why. Thanks gib.

You are right gib, this is much better than war or violence. Philosophy is and always will be the solution for issues in my eyes.

Right, and it re confirms the idea that the philosophy of psychology is far.more meaningful then the psychology of philosophy. As ground is considered.

Meaning: the most general principles of the psyche are where most relevance is. The rest are mere blame game tactics.

For those who consider philosophy only a defensive rationalisation.

That’s me in the blue blouse. I don’t know who that guy is.

Some pics of me. The glare in the first pic was just for fun.

Nice eyes, good teeth, nice face, but don’t ever let me see you with a long beard again.
8-[

:laughing:

It kinda spoils your whole look, but I guess regular shaving can get tiresome for you guys. :smiley:
