Flower reclassification gone mad

Now it’s going to be the best wildflower season for decades – you can even see it from space according to WA Toady, (but I immediately don’t believe that). But Alasdsair is concerned that this Carl Saganesque bloom may be just – if you believe the RAC -acres of Cosmos compliant rapeseed, renamed by pc gone mad no-men-claturning feminists as Canola. Why on earth we would rename a perfectly terrifying and threatening seed in this way is beyond me, but in any case, No means No RAC, and intensively farmed canola is not a wildflower for the purposes of old buffers getting off a bus with expensive but useless macro settings on their fucking plastic kit lenses. I SAID GOOD DAY. But I say that a lot.

The Crewman and The Snow Woman

A ute decoration so ill judged and risible that it’s almost great. By Mancey, Bunbury.

Day of the Personal Insult

Received these plates from an “admirer“。Not so much of an admirer that they COULD SPRING FOR FUCKING WEMBLEY WARE! I WOULDNT WIPE MY ARSE WITH FRANKLIN MINT. I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY! I SAID GOOD DAY!

Straight Razor Zydeco

When I met you in my dreams, I didn’t even get your name…

Every time I go to bed … every time I close my eyes

When I thought I was all alone, 

Badger brush and razor’s foam.

Vibrant Bush

Bento claims that full bushes are not back. They are back, and they are modern and vibrant as hell. Also still not played is naming things after royalty. The imaginatively named and oddly deserted Kings Square precinct.

Outrage Sunday 259 Erewhon

My associate Mr Higgs and I were at large in Dianella, looking for earthly paradise, or at least a place that wasn’t a dystopia. I think Mr Higgs might have gone for the Hello Burger, but he wasn’t in his ute. He liked the groupies, though. IMG_4374
But we got the job done, and found it over the lost horizon, where there are no machines, or high-rise. IMG_4296
It was a tough case, so Mr Higgs booked some soul coaching. “Donna carries out private readings from her home in Tapping, Western Australia,” Mr Higgs said. “How many at a time? I hope they’re not heavy!” I joked, which earned me a baleful look. IMG_4393
Don’t ask me – I’m nowhere. I may as well be stuck on Mesopotamia Station for all I know. IMG_2481

BSWAM’s West 35th Street

A Bartender’s skills with a Manhattes returns. 

West 35th Street. Soon all of New York not a historic district will look like this.

Historic shopfront. Note inventive window treatment.


Look, as long as you flush. 


Tasteful signage. ( A New York wall mural? Wait, what’s going on top right? That’s more like it! TLA)


Just a little block of horrors.

Turn down the vibrancy

Subiaco is making sure that it is as boring as possible by using the (played) medium of wall murals to campaign against sound vibrancy itself. Keep the music down people! We don’t want them to have a good time in Subi. Go to Maylands you Beatnick Hop Head. Their kerning is ok though. By Hot Kreemy.

Dozy

Bento claims this North Perth effort is Perth’s shittiest wall mural! Strong words, and a strong field in which to make them. Have you not been to Curtin recently Bento? *shudder*. No, this is well down the field. There’s no beard or wood nymph coming out of his hair for a start.

Absent R. Marsh

Wonderful find by Jane Z. Hidden away behind speakers at Vic Park Hockey Field in Carlisle. Ex home of Perth cricket club. Forget  Lillee (only runners up with Marsh and Lillee on board??) the hair on J Garrity is a clear winner.
