Flats & gradients on @MalkavianPranks and @dorriker
Given my experience with the komodo dragon, a big Gomi toy would be *squishy* even at room temperature.

Logged into Google using Chrome at work and found it's become a Kakfa-esque experience where I had to log in five times before I realized what was going on with "profiles" I've never asked for. Reminds me of the time I did a shoot-out of ten visual recognition APIs and I got demos of the others done in 20 minutes each but Google Cloud Compute took two hours because it trashed my Python #google #bigtech #trash #gomi #chrome #enshittification #privacytheatre

"Nos subúrbios em todo o Japão, casas cheias até as beiradas com lixo acumulado são comuns o suficiente para ter um termo irônico: #gomi-#yashiki (mansões de lixo).
E em áreas onde o espaço é limitado, residências desordenadas e lojas muitas vezes aparecem, vomitando coisas na rua em uma confusão semi-controlada tão onipresente que os planejadores urbanos têm um nome para isso:
#afuré-#dashi (spill-outs).Esta é uma complexidade extasiada e emergente, nascida menos do planejamento do que do crescimento orgânico, do inevitável caos de vidas sendo vividas.'"

In suburbs across Japan, homes filled to the rafters with hoarded junk are common enough to have an ironic idiom: #gomi-#yashiki (trash-mansions).
And in areas where space is limited, cluttered residences and shops will often erupt, disgorging things onto the street in a semi-controlled jumble so ubiquitous that urban planners have a name for it:
#afuré-#dashi (spilling-outs).This is an ecstatic, emergent complexity, born less from planning than from organic growth, from the inevitable chaos of lives being lived.

Continuing #Night #Photography from my #DayAndNight series from #Japan in 2019. This #Photo is the back of a shop, near the end of one of the main streets in #UnazukiOnsen. I love the distressed corrugated iron, and the gentle dilapidation in much of the #Japanese countryside. This is what is lost when places suffer predatory #Gentrification. Ironically, people will pay a fortune to fake this weathered age, constructing new buildings from demolition remains - suburban #Gomi castles.
