Stating the obvious but 2026 has to become the year of people over power

Artwork by Mark Atomos Pilon

Restorations in progress. I’m digging through the archives to bring out the very best for the new Atomos website. All this art will be available soon, framed, and ready to hang. Locally I can deliver, all others can be shipped worldwide.

604 Decades… good to see some of my @citranddiscorder comrades talking about the state of the local Vancouver music scene both past and present. #junos

I revisit this video now and then. A look back at my misspent youth and my first real solo art show!

Saw it through some trees. Amazing.

Extra maple syrup please.

I’ve become a tariff expert. It’s unbelievable how many times I’ve had to explain this. At the same time expected to adjust my prices to counter.

Today’s the day, American clients, you will now have to pay a 25% tariff on art crossing your border. This is a tax that you are responsible for, not me (don’t make me explain this again). I won’t adjust my prices to swallow those costs, you already get the exchange discount. Thank you.

Oh baby, how I’ve missed you. Winter is too damn long. I’ll take these mild grey days over pouring rain any time. Taking care of my mom full-time has slowed my life down considerably, so I soak in as much beauty as I can.

Do you think this has something to do with this “nonexistent” country, threatening to take away his citizenship?

Just got my new Pela Case phone cases! Loving the idea so far. They’re sustainable, compostable, and best of all, made in Canada. Even better, they’re from Kelowna, B.C., ordering cases from the U.S. was always a hassle with duties and the exchange so l’m hoping this is a great alternative.

Caught the Mercury Rev show tonight at the Fox. Beautiful.

Canadian’s fighting for America while they’re attacking Canada is such a Canadian thing to do. That’s why we don’t want to be American.

Happy Valentine’s Day weirdos!

So far it seems integrated with Bluesky. Like Instagram and Threads.
But just showing images. I wonder how it will live separately. We’ll see.

Thank you!

For those who don’t know, Flashes is a Instagram-like photo app. Currently in beta. More info here: bsky.app/profile/flas...

One month in and it’s already looking like a rocky ride. But I’m looking forward to a fresh platform and posting new work in Flashes ⚡️

He’s human junk mail.

Polished up these Swedish beauties yesterday. Making me feel closer to summer as it snows outside.

Maybe it’s because I’ve spent time in advertising (on both sites of the border). The U.S. and Canada in a nutshell. youtu.be/O7oD_oX-Gio?...

It’s been a heavy few days, nature wrapped us in her cold caress. Every flake a tale untold.

Americans boo us during playoffs. We’re used to it.

Predictable

Absolutely

Specifically, I can’t scroll through Reddit anymore without it completely going black and crashing. But I’ve been running out of memory on lots of different things like scrolling through photos. Not sure what’s going on.

I unfortunately updated, experiencing lots of crashing and memory leaks.

They always wear those gangster glasses. Easy to pick them out.

I guess that’s why we’re here and not there.

The facts keep changing. Fox News is for cavemen.
