The Weight of Time

Hidden in an old entrance, this antique scale caught the afternoon light for just a moment. Its worn brass face and decades of use tell a story of craftsmanship that quietly survives in everyday places. Sometimes the most ordinary objects preserve the richest history.

The Reichstag Dome.

The glass dome atop the Reichstag building in Berlin is one of the city's most iconic architectural landmarks. Designed by architect Norman Foster, it serves as a powerful symbol of German democracy and transparency. Visitors can ascend the spiralling ramps to enjoy panoramic views of the city skyline, while the cone-shaped mirror structure in the centre reflects natural sunlight down into the parliamentary debating chamber below, symbolising the idea that the people are above their government.

Berlin. Germany.

Brandon Church

A white timber church at Brandon, Queensland, raised on stumps in the Queensland vernacular way. The Gothic arch windows and decorative barge boards sit alongside the practical corrugated iron roof, a combination you see on old country churches right across the state. Green lawn around the building, an active sky overhead, and someone just visible at the far right who gives the scale of the place.

The Virus of Ignorance: The 40% of Fanatics Used by the System by BarbaraBonanno BNNRRB

The Virus of Ignorance: The 40% of Fanatics Used by the System

Scum has no nationality; it is everywhere. This screenshot is clear proof of how that 40% of society thinks—people who don't know shit, yet still feel the need to talk and insult. They are the gullible ones, the fanatics, the fake patriots who think they are superior. The most dangerous part is that they don't realize they are just pawns. They are being used without their knowledge by that 20% to 30% of a rotten world—made of politicians, corporations, and insurance companies—who pull the strings of power for their own interests. I created this graphic specifically to throw their own hypocrisy and verbal violence back in their faces. When they run out of historical or logical arguments, the only thing they can do is lash out with the lowest insults, showing the pure arrogance and weakness of those who are remote-controlled by the system.Look at that photo: when these individuals don't know how to respond to history and geopolitics, the only thing they have left to do is resort to insults, using the most aggressive, sexist, and desperate verbal violence to try and silence a woman who is simply speaking the truth. They brag about being veterans, heroes, or defenders of the homeland, but then they wish for Europe to rot in extremism if people don't kneel before their arrogance. This is not patriotism; this is nothing but a thirst for submission, power, and money. It is the delusion of those who think the world is divided into masters and servants, forgetting that the Earth is one and that these divisions were created by the very humans of their own kind.What makes this even more pathetic and exposes his utter ignorance is his surname: "Mailano." This is a clear variation of "Milano," which is historically one of the most deeply rooted surnames of Italian Jewish families who took the names of their cities during historical migrations. He carries the name and the heritage of a people who suffered the ultimate horrors of fascism, aggressive nationalism, and state-sponsored violence. Yet, here he is, acting as a clueless pawn for the modern warmongering system, spreading hate on Europe and using the exact same bullying logic that once persecuted his own ancestors. He doesn't even know his own roots, let alone world history.To these remote-controlled fanatics, I want to remind them of something specific to refresh their total ignorance: I speak from a country, Italy, that taught the entire world legal civilization and respect for human beings when others were still solving everything through brute force. In 1764, while the rest of the world was torturing and killing in the name of the State, Cesare Beccaria wrote "On Crimes and Punishments" (Dei delitti e delle pene), a monumental work that changed the history of humanity forever. In those pages, Beccaria dismantled the death penalty piece by piece, defining it as a logical absurdity and an actual war of the State against a citizen. He proved that torture is nothing but a useless act of violence that favors robust criminals and condemns weak innocents, and that the value of a society is measured by the certainty of justice, not by the cruelty of punishments. Thanks to that way of thinking, Tuscany in 1786 became the first State in the world to abolish the death penalty. We were centuries ahead of everyone.Today, instead, they are dragging us down. This appalling geopolitics, made of opposing blocs, proxy wars, and blind servility toward industrial, insurance, and military giants, is trampling over every single page of that civilization and dragging us back to a barbaric era. They are leveling us downward because of leaders and puppets who, just to chase political seats and corporate profits, accept the logic of submission and violence. They want us ignorant, scared, and divided, ready to tear each other apart on social media using the lowest insults when they run out of historical arguments. Our history is made of dignity, rights, and critical thinking, not mud, threats, and psychological dependency. I will never allow a remote-controlled fanatic of the system to use verbal violence to cover up the moral failure of the violent world he himself defends. So, before you open your mouth to insult me, my family, or my country, study history, turn off the propaganda, and reflect on your words.

Ósvör Maritime Museum

Ósvör Maritime Museum is an open-air museum in Bolungarvík, Westfjords, recreating a traditional 19th-century Icelandic fishing station. Built on the site of historic fishing huts and opened in 1988, the museum preserves the way of life of Icelandic fishermen before the age of motorized boats. Visitors can explore reconstructed turf and timber buildings, a salt house, fish-drying racks, crew quarters, and the traditional six-oared rowing boat Ölver. During the summer, guides dressed in authentic fishermen's clothing demonstrate how people lived and worked in one of Iceland's harshest coastal environments, offering a fascinating insight into the country's maritime heritage
