I'm sure I went to this mall as a kid because my grandfather's home wasn't too far from here, but I had not been able to register all of this architectural awesomeness as an adult. Long live the caracoles!

Sex shop at the Guggenheim, we are readyπ π₯

That works, too.
The last one was tighter but I still very much enjoyed this one. Even when he's messy he's very personable.
With gift link! (I remembered!)

βHe was arrogant, literate, obdurate, revengeful, unable to accept mistakes, unwilling to make concessions and given to conspiracy theories.β
Sounds like Trump except for the literate part.

Kinda like killing a cartel leader. There is always another more violent one to replace him.
the bombings will continue until peace improves
Quick, someone in D.C. google De-Baathification.
Moving non-profit collective AMBOS's booth out of the main fair with no notice is pretty crappy considering that Frieze was happy to beat their own chest about including the group in their press releases.
