Bush is slowly coming back after killing off some Chinese Jasmine and planting some new natives.
Not an original thought from me, it's stolen from twitter from a guy that stole it from facebook.
But still it shook me.

Me too. Holy shit.
Have you seen the bike paths in Ottawa? Only been twice, but its a blast not having to worry about traffic and only the odd pedestrian.
This is on the Quebec side, but it was such an enjoyable place to ride....until I made a wrong turn and ended up on rocks, on that bike.

I’m afraid to say I’ve only driven a car in Canada and never got to Otowa. I saw what looked like good ones on the outskirts of Vancouver though. Best ones I ever rode myself were Danish and Japanese. They go directly where they need to go, are really safe and really feel like they have been thought of ‘first’.Have you seen the bike paths in Ottawa?

I'm still trying to figure out how that picture is even possible. There's gotta be something weird going on the perspective of the camera isn't picking up or is making that layout of the ground look very different than it is.......
Lens compression maybe? Long telephoto + stepped down aperture.
A valley the plane is emerging from?
Either way, that plane is grossly overweight, I'm surprised it's even moving, what with the pilots balls being made of giant spheres of tungsten.
The middle one is a winner. Plus at 0%ABV I can legally drive with an open one in the cab of the truck

*Solar system. The center of the galaxy is the Sagittarius A* supermassive black hole.
"solar system"
muh bad
stressful times, I'm drinkin whiskey
Although spiritually, a black hole at the center makes way more sense now
What's the latest on you needing to evac?
Ran out of reusable bags at the grocery store, didn’t want my melon rolling around for the drive home
Don’t get me wrong, those guys fly big ass planes insanely low, but not quite that insanely low.
Precisely that. Probably shot with a big prim lens like a 500mm or 600mm from a ridge or two away, making the plane appear to be on the near ridge, when in reality it’s well behind the ridge in a valley. DC10s are huge planes, if it were near the trees in the foreground those trees would be nearly Sequoia huge. Every major fire an image almost identical to that one makes the rounds.

I find the les compression thing totally plausible, except those trees behind it would have to be absolutely massive. That's the part that doesn't make sense to me, they'd have to be pretty tiny IMO if they are behind a DC-10, not as big as the trees in the foreground.
When a plane like this drops a load, it can climb out at some pretty crazy steep angles...and that's just what they do.
there's a black hole in the center of all of us.
