  1. Demolition derby at the local fairgrounds. Pretty sure there’s parts here on fire and glowing that really shouldn’t be. Next time: ear plugs. Impressed how they smash up beyond belief. Then tow the carnage away with tractors, fix up the cars with heavy sledges, new tires, and duct tape, and then they are off again for the next round. #demolition #demolitionderby

  3. I recently came across this stitched panorama, which I took in 1999 while visiting the site of Odin Computer Graphics’ former offices at Canning Place, opposite Liverpool’s Albert Dock.

    The pile of rubble on the left, where the yellow machinery is working, is roughly where our first office in Steers House stood. Mulberry House would have been above the platform visible on the right.

    I’ve written about my time at Odin in my serialized memoir:

    I found this panorama too late to include it in the Odin chapters, though I’ll retcon it into them later. In the meantime, I thought I’d share it here.

  4. Sous le régime de Robert Bourassa : "Quelque 5000 résidants, déracinés."
    🔴 "La nouvelle est tombée au début des années 1970 pour des centaines de familles, qui habitaient au premier rang du côté nord de la rue Notre-Dame Est. Leurs résidences seraient détruites pour faire place au « progrès ». Un verdict sans appel."

  5. Sapphire Beach housing

    "Flames swept through Coffs Harbour's most expensive house on Tuesday night, just weeks after the vacant headland home was approved for demolition...Under approved plans, the sprawling 15-bedroom, 15-bathroom home with a 7-car garage would be replaced by a contemporary home of the same floor space."

    "The luxury beachfront property (had) fallen into disrepair and the station officer on scene spoke to the police officer, who said it's known for vandalism and sort of progressed down to arson." >>

First the Uyghurs, now a Christian church is demolished, and a ”wanted” poster circulated for the people that ran it. China’s trying to keep it all under wraps, which is all the more reason to share…

  11. Goat shelter demolition behind the big barn where we want to put a chicken coop, whenventually (new word unlocked, grats).

    No treasure here, just some crumbling Šiferis and rusty old nails. Well, I haven't dug under yet.
