The demon surveys the destruction he wrought

Post by Bounty »

This picture was in the paper today. There was a fire at a chemical plant in Moerdijk, the Netherlands, and one lucky photographer managed to snap this picture. I figured it's more than worth sharing, partially as a reminder that the greatest images often come about by accident and timing, partially because it's fucking cool.

That fire looks like a Bichon Frise and a Balrog had a baby that is now rampaging about the Netherlands.

I'm sure that's what its publicist was going for but I assure you, it means to bring the apocalypse upon us.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I dunno, to me it looks like a big happy black labrador; the "pug" bit is just his nose and his long black tongue is flopping about beneath, like he doesn't know what he's done wrong. He's all "Hi guys!" not "grrrr SATAN".

Yep - I see a lab as well. Not happy, but interested - like when you quietly call his name while he's napping and his head shoots up and his ears perk in that very lab-like way and he looks at you like "Hey! Did you hear that?"
