After adjusting my mood I put on some jams through Shortwave an Internet radio station. Radio Paradise's Main Mix station. I don't know how long I might have listened, but realized I need a better pair of Soundcore Anker Space 2 headphones. They may not be the best but they do have some good specs and with equalizationsoftware that controls what you here. The software will also allow you to enhance and amplify the bits of the track that stand out to you.

Steps up to the tank platformA wooden ladder up to the top of the tankTwo feeder pipes from the top of the tank and down to the slop drainDoor for underneath platform

Does the Kraken Exist?
Well, they say they have proof. I believe that the Kraken exists. I however do not want to meet one
The Kraken
Below the thunders of the upper deep,Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides; above him swell
Huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
And far away into the sickly light,
From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
Unnumbered and enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
Then once by man and angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson

I have heard this track before but I haven't seen the video. This is one the most disturbing music videos I have ever seen. How long before this happens here? As it has happened in other countries.

Through the Mountains of Sprue
I believe these sprue belong to a Con-Core kit in HO, 1/87 scale. There are some usable parts here, like the ladder and turn wheels.
I recently dug these out from my door and window stock for a project I am working on. I don't remember the maker of these windows, but they do like industrial windows of some sort,

Skibidi Toilet Mystery Mini Figures
I don't know which are weirder, the Brainrot characters or these Skibidi Toilet's? Five and Below carries these, as do other retailers.
The Skibidi figures are cast from PVC and stand approximately 6 inches tall.
There are others in this series and from what I heard there are more than just this series.

Burning Chrome
“Chrome: her pretty child face smooth as steel, with eyes that would have been at home on the bottom of some deep Atlantic trench, cold gray eyes that lived under terrible pressure. They said she cooked her own cancers for people who crossed her, rococo custom variations that took years to kill you. They said a lot of things about Chrome, none of them at all reassuring.”
Gibson, William. Burning Chrome. New York: Arbor House, 1986.
