This 1850s image (which was probably taken from #Southwark Bridge) shows #London long before modernity ruined its charm. One can see the old Iron and Bull wharfs on #UpperThamesStreet, #Queenhithe, which have long since vanished.
The Klondyke Bar was a pub in #Belfast, Northern #Ireland, that was built in 1872 and located in the #SandyRow area.

McAdam Street, Sandy Row, #Belfast

Most of us shackle and handicap our happiness and abilities by making self-deprecating allowances and excuses for people that we know care nothing for our physical and mental well-being.
Philosophising over having never been born is a daunting epiphany. For me, imagining that the very homes, streets, fields, or people whom I've loved having never known my presence is a type of humbling emptiness that renews one's appreciation for the life I'm so lucky to have.
And so it begins..
If you're driving your children to school, don't listen to the news or allow them to play their hollow, sickening rap music. Stick on the 'White Ladder' album by David Gray and help them experience talent and beauty over the poison sold as contemporary art.
A #Sikh whom I speak to often at one of my gyms asked me to give his son a firm lecture on the importance of early mornings/physicality. He said the youth of his community, due to assimilation, have fallen victim to the same corruption that's ruined Europe's recent generations.

I respect people who've great power but instead of using it for harm, use it for good. Women are the most powerful of humans as they're the catalyst of male success or depression. Therefore, how women treat men is the sole indicator of their worth, or their lack thereof.
News articles in the 2020s are the very jokes we made in the 2010s
This outlandishly impressive painting is named Sunny Day, Merikul by #IvanShishkin and was painted in 1894. The saying "art is in the eye of the beholder" is not an excuse to patronise contemporary vandalism. To call today's 'art', "art", is to destroy our concept of true talent. @VinsFavouriteArtwork
There is no object or venture as expensive or irreplaceable as that of wasted time.
Sometimes, dreams when sleeping are nightmares when awake. Last night, in my sleep, I drank in the city with someone who's long since left our mortal coil. I remember complimenting his jacket and somehow neglected to notice that his face was still the young man we lost so long ago.
