If Luigi walks because of David Zaslav and Eric Adams I will laugh so hard I will probably have a stroke and die.

I laughed more than I should have. #filmsky boxd.it/8UDDp1

the kids are alright, even if the state government is indescribably fucked

Trying very hard to avoid the urge to dunk tweet, but I'll just say that Nate Silver is a perfect example that IQ is astrology for men who think they're too smart for astrology.

Armchair liberal quarterbacks need to knock it off with the “Who’d they vote for?” bullshit like it’s a proper clapback to people in mortal peril. These policies target *everyone* - including voters who went for Harris; and no region or demographic is a monolith which somehow STILL needs to be said.

when i say that there are people who care less about workers and their rights than they do the primacy of a masculinist blue collar identity politics, i am taking about people like sean o’brien

I stayed at The Flamingo on this latest trip to Las Vegas, so I guess I'll lead off the non-wedding photos with some from that property... Gallery: dsmithimages.com/las-vegas-ne... 📷 = Fujifilm X-T5 #lasvegas #photography #fujifilm #fujifilmxt5 #fujixt5 #fujixseries #xt5

It’s not lost on me that the Washington Post has this story when their owner would love to make Amazon Mail a thing.

I love how Homer basically made a variant of Lean.

Bad Bond movie but the best Bond song...

Waffle House would do so much business at basically everyone of these schools.

Don't mind me... just reading the latest review a wedding client left me...

is masculinity when you never stop fucking whining about everything? that seems to be the vance demo

Oh good it's Stupid Die Hard

I'm glad I don't have a huge emotional tie to the Bond franchise, but I do feel for those who do. Amazon is going to run it into the ground.

For those wondering, the weather today in Alabama can simply be classified as "Incredibly rude".

A few from the show by Brent Cobb last night at Saturn in Birmingham, Alabama... Gallery: dsmithimages.com/brent-cobb-0... 📷 = Fujifilm X-T5 #brentcobb #concertphotography #photography #fujifilm #fujixseries #xt5 #fujifilmxt5

Saw another person talk about getting demotivated because they don't get engagement on their photos so time again for one of my favorite drums: If you aren't taking the photos (or, doing any type of art) because _you_ want to see the work, you're in it for the wrong reasons.

"Ideas are the currency of philosophers, not photographers" is going to be one of the dumbest things I read this week and we're still getting daily drips from the idiot fascists

I do always get a kick out of responding to an advice needed post on a wedding photography subreddit, stating how I do things differently then the norm but in a way that's just offering another perspective, and the immediately getting downvoted for doing things differently than the norm.

A few from Soccer Mommy at Saturn in Birmingham, Alabama last night... Gallery: dsmithimages.com/soccer-mommy... 📷 = Fujifilm X-T5 #soccermommy #concertphotography #photography #fujifilm #fujifilmxt5 #xt5 #fujifilmxseries #fujixseries #fujix

It's as if someone decided, "Hey... let's make a music festival to just piss of David A. Smith in the Birmingham, Alabama". There's a reason I listed to a lot of older music when I was in high school. The "current" music landscape at the time was BLEAK.

Really glad I don’t have any national park weddings on the calendar at the moment…

B and D can fight amongst themselves in a loser leaves town match.

The cliffhanger the week before where Carter gets stabbed and the episode ends with him seeing Lucy on the floor was so riveting, and then the next episode was just amazing television from start to finish.

A killer show by Jeff Rosenstock at Saturn in Birmingham, Alabama last night... complete with great crowd surfing shots. Gallery: dsmithimages.com/jeff-rosenst... 📷 = Fujifilm X-T5 #photography #concertphotography #fujifilm #fujixt5 #fujixseries #xt5

missed connection: Our eyes met across the bar. I was nervous. You were wearing the Hackers shirt

Just say my name next time.

Been a bit quiet here because of the trip to Vegas/travel issues and all, but, hey I saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind last night and only ugly cried once during this particular viewing. I can't decide if that's a good thing or bad thing.

Got upgraded to first class on the flight from Las Vegas to L.A., and I’m listening to Chappell Roan pre-takeoff because it’s been a day and I need to hear some anthems.

Now I’m getting ready to point the plane towards Los Angeles then Atlanta and then home… disregard that first photo and looking forward to sleeping up against the bulkhead tonight. (It’s fine. I’m used to it at this point.)
