Hey, I was there and took a picture just like the one you posted. Except my wife and daughter are in it!

Just read about it in "Atlas Obscura."

A great piece of public art.

A sign near the Helsinki airport. Doesn't it make you want to visit?

To piggyback on what Rush said, most importantly that. Soldering irons get extremely hot. Like 660 degrees hot.

Then, there's no base to the iron. Or if it is present, it's not in sight. Like, you don't just drop it on the table when you want to put the thing down. The base also has a damp sponge because, at that temp, corrosion on the tip of the gun is instant. Furthermore, there's no flux. Flux is used for solder the way primer is used for paint. But that's used to apply solder. She's clearly not applying solder. So...where's the "solder sucker" to remove old solder?

Then....It's a fucking bio lab! That's not an appropriate place to do this type of work.

Also, where is her personal protective equipment? The glasses are ok, but her hair is slightly down. And...She's Not wearing heavier clothing. Flux sometimes pops. Solder can splash. That shit is hot.

And she's wearing a ring. She's working on electronics. I'd love to see her solder her finger with a ring on.

Others with better eyes than me have noticed that she's soldering the wrong type of card - basically, the tiny components on it aren't completely appropriate for soldering. And her iron is on the battery of the card. You wouldn't solder that.

The picture is a fucking abomination.

You gotta link the whole url. If you're ever unsure, hit the preview button. It helps.

Thanks Johnnie. Yes, I hit the preview button, and I see the results, but I still didn't know how to "fix" it, so I just said screw it, and posted it anyways. I really like The Swamp, but asking simple questions like this is a challenge sometimes. Thanks for your input though.

Oh, no problem. I don't think there's a "primer" for posting non text. JPG and GIF files are the full up URLs with the [img] brackets. Just make sure that link ends in ".jpg" or ".gif"

And things like tweets, Instagram posts, Facebook posts, etc...are just the URLs themselves. But even with that, I always double check.

Pretty fantastic defense there too. Even for an all-star game, that was laughable.

Lol at the caption. But also, that's an uncanny resemblance.

Political satire is a traditional element to Germany's Rosenmontag (Rose Monday) carnival parade and the past 12 months have provided rich material for the float designers. From the ascension of Donald Trump to US Presidency, to the rise of the populist far-right Europe, the UK's Brexit vote and Germany's upcoming elections, all have been made into life size effigy's and were paraded down Germany's streets on 27 February.
