Our group challenge called "Five On The Fifth" (FOTF) was set by me this month. I chose the theme Fairy tale probably because I wanted an excuse to try a fantasy themed image pushing myself to use Photoshop. I tried many iterations which I ended up scraping but stuck it out with this one. The base image is from a foggy morning at my local lake and a waterfall from Kinglake. Red Ridinghood is the model Jess provided byAndrew and the wolf eyes by Fullmetal-fox on Deviant art.
The unicorn is my pet.
Fairy tales are often a mix of light and dark, reality and fantasy, magic and sorcery and dire tales of morality. I kind of tried to do a mix here bur really it was about having fun trying to creating a feeling of fairy tale. I hope it's not too amateurish but I almost turned my hair grey fiddling with it so I give it up to you now.
A Men, like trees are no stronger than their roots. Unlike trees though, Men can change their roots.

Artist: Ashley Hodder
Ashley Hodder’s murals have an unabashed, maximalist femininity that radiates off of the walls she paints on. It’s one of the things I love about her work. But in her portrait of Jina (Mahsa) Amini on a brick wall on Pittsburgh’s north side, Hodder’s art style lends itself to a revolutionary cause for women around the world. When the Iranian morality police killed Amini in the act of brutality that inspired the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement among Iranians to protest the human rights abuses under Ayatollah Khomeini, it was for the crime of not covering her hair correctly. In Hodder’s mural, Amini’s hair flows in purple and red rivulets down the bricks. Near where the wall meets the grass, tendrils of Amini’s hair turn into a stream of blood. Written by Emma Riva
An isolated barn on a deserted farm site stands with its lower door open giving an almost human expression of being aghast at all the changes around it. This past decade of my life has been a battle to accept generational changes without betraying a sense of being aghast. Technology advances and changes in methodology can be bewildering to older folks yet positive. Changes in morality and a breakdown in genteelness is more difficult to accept.
"Things are gonna change.
This is the morning after
When reality bites.
The morality kicks in
To those damaged limitations..."

Roadside Begging Coyote on Panamint Valley Road. These always cause a morality conflict for me - it's sad to see, especially when they have the youngsters out there learning to live like this also, but how else are you going to be within 20 -30 feet of a Coyote for as long as you want? We never feed them, but obviously plenty of folks do or they wouldn't be doing this.
According to Thai cosmology, Sumeru Mountain is considered the pillar of the world as well as the center as the universe. The mountain, supported stays above the surface of the water. lt is the residence of spirits ranging from deities in heaven to devils in hell. The beings living by the mountainside also include humans, nagas, garudas. ogres. ogresses and yogis Each of them is distinguished by wisdom morality
On the top of the lofty mountain the heaven called Tavatimsa where trai Trueng City is located The city is believed be the kingdom of gods where Sakka or Indra is the king Indra’s most important responsibility is to protect the serenity of the world community his divine kingship is a result of the merit he had made during his past lives.
Sakka lives in a castle called Phaichayon Maha Prasat (Phai chayon great grand palace). In the center of the castle stands the heavenly throne, namely Bandu Kamplhon, which will turn stiff when the world falls into disastrous catastrophe. Learnirng the situation, Indra will come down from heaven to help save his people on earth.
Sumeru Mountain is surrounded by an ocean, called Nathi Si Thandorn, while the Himavant Forest and Anodata Pond are at the toot of the mountan. Four springs which ane illustrated by the faces of 4 different animals including the lion, elephant, horse and ox are located at the 4 cardinal points of the pond Through the ox spring only, the water flows from the pond into the ocean
But I'm a bit upset and say,
NO, NOT AGAIN!!!!
We're going to hold a major international sporting event like in 1936, in a country that murders its own citizens (and others) and threatens to attack other countries if they don't give in to their demands, even if they are allies of the free democratic world and members of NATO.
Say no to the KNVB (Royal Dutch Football Association), and say no to FIFA. No supporters and players to a country that has lost all sense of morality, human rights, etc., etc.
NO, NOT AGAIN!!!!!

A few weeks ago I saw this splendid example of a male bovine created by Bellart! I own a lot of Bovine in SL honestly this boy is about the finest looking bull I have ever seen.
So a concept was conceived and the 1st Green Acres Rodeo was born!
My 1st preference was to of course to "Bull Ride", sadly my young Bovine friend is a little undersized to properly pull that off, so this is my Plan B, "Steer Wrestling"! I am super pleased even with the multiple crashes just as I was going in for my final frame!
I had a lot of help on this series, Igi Romuśka my Critter Poser Technical Expert. A special thanks to my Barrel Racing friend Tupper Moran for helping with the little details of Ro-Deo-Deoing that only she could do, plus she knows about Jerry Jeff! Thank you very much my friends!
For all the fans of the Rodeo, I will leave the build for a month or so for you all to enjoy!
There will be 2 more images in this series forth coming.

🎶[Ro-Deo-Deo Cowboy(Jerry Jeff Walker)] 🎶
Yeah, I work all week just to make a draw,
Sometimes I don't ride 'em at all.
But I'm hooked in and I got to ride that train.
When I get down in that chute,
I can't keep from thinkin' about all that loot,
I'm a ro-do-o de-o de-o cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
That's why I drink a cheeseburger, eat a six-pack
Take a Darvon to kill the pain.
Pay thirty-two fifty just to take a fall,
I live through it to tell you 'bout it all.
I'm a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
Now, relax and take a deep breath or two
It's a one time shot and then you're through
Hang on, boy, and someday you'll have fame.
When they open up that gate
The bull takes off like a runaway freight
And you're a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
That's why I eat a cheeseburger, drink a six-pack
Take a Darvon to kill the pain
Pay thirty-two fifty just to take a fall
I live through it just to talk about it all
I'm a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
The cobwebs sure are thick, what's goin' on?
I feel like all my circuits are blown.
I can't remember my number or name.
Gimme a beer or two and I'll feel fine,
'Least it's worked every other time
'cause I'm a rodeo de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And René Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed

I know you probably don't remember it but... If you have seen "Peter Pan" in your childhood... you will remember a pirate song of dubious morality that said something like this...
♫
Whoever wants to be a rascal
World famous scoundrel
Let him imitate the most thieving pirate
Like El Hook there is no other like it
A scoundrel without rival
Ohh....and being a pirate is the best life
You live without working
when one dies
with a siren
It stays at the bottom of the sea
Yes... it stays at the bottom of the sea

Happy Caturday !
The cheetah is a large cat of the subfamily Felinae that occurs in Southern, North and East Africa, and a few localities in Iran. The species is IUCN Red Listed as vulnerable, as it suffered a substantial decline in its historic range in the 20th century due to habitat loss, poaching, illegal pet trade, and conflict with humans. By 2016, the global cheetah population has been estimated at approximately 7,100 individuals in the wild. Several African countries have taken steps to improve cheetah conservation measures. It is the fastest land animal.
Cheetahs are active mainly during the day, with hunting their major activity. Adult males are sociable despite their territoriality, forming groups called coalitions. Females are not territorial; they may be solitary or live with their offspring in home ranges.
Carnivores, cheetah mainly prey upon antelopes and gazelles. They will stalk their prey to within 100–300 m (330–980 ft), charge towards it and kill it by tripping it during the chase and biting its throat to suffocate it to death. Cheetahs can reach speeds of 112 km/h (70 mph) in short bursts, but this is disputed by more recent measurements. The average speed of cheetahs is about 64 km/h (40 mph).
Cheetahs are induced ovulators, breeding throughout the year. Gestation is nearly three months long, resulting in a litter of typically three to five cubs (the number can vary from one to eight). Weaning occurs at six months; siblings tend to stay together for some time. Cheetah cubs face higher mortality than most other mammals, especially in the Serengeti region. Cheetahs inhabit a variety of habitats – dry forests, scrub forests and savannahs. -Wikipedia

To me, God is Truth and Love;
God is ethics and morality:
God is fearlessness.
God is the source of Light and Life
and yet He is above and beyond all these.
God is conscience...
He is a personal God to those who need His personal presence.
He is embodied to those who need His touch.
He is the purest essence.
He simply is to those who have faith.
He is all things to all men.

L’absolu est un spectacle traversant les nombreuses tentatives de libération de l’individu englué dans la morale qui bride le corps et entrave le désir de l’homme.
L'absolu est une enquête poétique au cœur de la psyché des êtres, qui replace le désir au centre de nos vies. Cette quête induit un procès, un mythe réinventé où l’homme se trouve en conflit avec lui-même, ses dieux et ses démons, sa zone sombre et sa part flamboyante. Absolu car insaisissable à celui qui veut le maîtriser. Mais si ce désir n'est pas identifié, transcendé, il crée du symptôme, il "hystérise" collectivement parfois... Suscitant la catharsis des corps et invoquant les codes de la tragédie grecque dans nos sociétés contemporaines.
Depuis 2008, ce projet chemine dans la réflexion quant à la recontextualisation de la perception du spectateur. Boris Gibé a souhaité travailler sur une structure vertigineuse, offrant une expérience physique aux spectateurs : “Comme dans un théâtre anatomique, j’avais envie que ce spectacle soit vu du dessus, en circulaire, pour que le public se retrouve dans une réalité supérieure au sort de l'homme mis en scène”. Le Silo est un chapiteau de tôle de 9m de diamètre, 12 m de haut et d’une jauge de 100 places assises. A l'intérieur, autour de la piste, deux escaliers à double révolution s'enroulent sur 4 étages, et accueillent les spectateurs sur chacune des marches.
Dans ce puit aux images qui questionne le vide, le néant, l'inconnu, l'infini, les pistes de recherches s'orientent pour le moment vers une relation du corps avec les éléments (eau, air, feu...). L’acrobatie aérienne sur des agrès de cirque réinventés, ainsi que la contorsion y seront chorégraphiées dans une approche du geste comportemental poussant la physicalité à l’extrême.
The absolute is a show that goes through the many attempts to free the individual stuck in the morality that restricts the body and hinders the desire of man.
The absolute is a poetic investigation into the heart of the psyche of beings, which places desire at the center of our lives. This quest induces a trial, a reinvented myth where man finds himself in conflict with himself, his gods and his demons, his dark zone and his flamboyant part. Absolute because elusive to the one who wants to master it. But if this desire is not identified, transcended, it creates symptoms, it sometimes "hysterizes" collectively... Arousing the catharsis of bodies and invoking the codes of Greek tragedy in our contemporary societies.
Since 2008, this project has been moving forward in reflection on the recontextualization of the spectator's perception. Boris Gibé wanted to work on a vertiginous structure, offering a physical experience to the spectators: "As in an anatomical theater, I wanted this show to be seen from above, in a circle, so that the audience finds themselves in a reality superior to the fate of the man staged". The Silo is a sheet metal tent 9m in diameter, 12m high and with a capacity of 100 seats. Inside, around the track, two double-revolution staircases wind over 4 floors, and welcome the spectators on each of the steps. In this well of images that questions the void, nothingness, the unknown, the infinite, the research avenues are currently oriented towards a relationship between the body and the elements (water, air, fire...). Aerial acrobatics on reinvented circus apparatus, as well as contortion will be choreographed in an approach to behavioral gesture pushing physicality to the extreme.

I want to take this moment to thank my partner in crime Miss Bonnie AKA Angel for putting up with this difficult man for four years!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🎼[Miss Bonnie and Mister Clyde (Joe Ely)] 🎼
I was mindin' my own business down on Deep Elum Street
The sun was comin' up and the birds was singin' sweet
When a car come around the corner, long and lean and brown
Pulls up to the curb beside me and rolls their window down
A man throws me a dollar and I asked him what's that for
A pack of Luckies and a Paper over at the corner store
I peer into the window there's a man and a woman inside
Holy Jumpin' Bolts of Lightnin' it's Miss Bonnie and Mr. Clyde
I made a joke about Lucky Strikes that I never should've used
Their patience was proportional to the shortness of their fuse
Bonnie's pretty little trigger finger was twitchin' by her side
And Clyde was cleanin' his fingernails with a foot long Bowie Knife
I brung 'em back the Cigarettes and the Dallas Mornin' Sun
I told 'em they made the papers front page and column one
Ah, we don't need no smart-assed kid actin' as our guide
Now just run along like you never seen, Miss Bonnie and Mr. Clyde
Excuse me sir I says to him, but I thought you was a business guy
I might have a little proposition that just might catch your eye
The biggest haul of Fort Knox Gold they're a'haulin back tonight
And loadin' it up in an Armored Car at the crack of the mornin' light
Bonnie grabbed me by the belt loop and pulled me in the car
And Clyde held a saw'd-off to my head and lit me a big cigar
If you're on the level then we might just be partners on the side
But don't even think about double crossin' Miss Bonnie and Mr. Clyde
Within a week I'd been transformed from a beggar to a wanted man
The dreams I'd had of a glamorous life were now, oh so close at hand
Bonnie kept makin' eyes at me, it was hard to look away
She looked like an innocent country girl who had somehow gone astray
Clyde once imagined he was Robin Hood but now his greed was startin' to show
Instead of spreading the wealth around he was Wallerin' in the Dough
And when he started slappin' Bonnie around something went off in me inside, I said
If you keep slappin' Bonnie around, I'm gonna have your hide, Clyde
Clyde would've shot me then and there if he wasn't so sluggin' drunk
'Bout the time he raised his shootin' iron he passed out on his trunk
Me and Bonnie made our break, in Clyde's Caddilac De Ville
Bonnie was already on my lap as we flew thru Louisville
We got married in Niagra Falls, I got a job as a paper man
Within a week the headlines came, showed Clyde on an old divan
Shot full of holes, the both of them, which the paper then Identified
As the love who led him to his grave, Miss Bonnie and Mr. Clyde
We just couldn't believe we got away with a scheme as big as that
We were buying drinks and tossin' scraps to all the dogs and cats
We rented us a barrel that night at the Whiskey Still
And decided to spend our Honeymoon floatin' down Niagra Hill
We made the maddest wettest bumpiest love fallin' down that waterfall
Like a crazy pair of desert doves who had never seen rain fall
The Police lights were blinkin' at our motel room, outside
But We never went back to hear the tale of Miss Bonnie and Mr. Clyde

🎶[Shoot Out The Lights (Richard Thompson & Jackshit )] 🎶
City lights the water as the snow forgets the sky
And we're staring at the bridges just like every other night
We've been watching for a miracle
We're praying for a sign
When the cure is made of poison then it's hard to rest your eyes
If it's time
Oh
Lord
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
Heavens shake with anger and the clouds
They curse the ground
And I'm screaming for an answer but the darkness blinds me now
We will not survive on misery
We will fill ourselves with love
We are searching
We are hopeful
We are anything but lost
If it's time
Oh
Lord
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
I see the stars in black and white
I pray to God most every night
I see the stars in black and white
And I pray to God most every night
(Shoot out the lights)
I see the stars in black and white
(Shoot out the lights)
(Shoot out the lights)
And I pray to God most every night
(Shoot out the lights)
(Shoot out the lights)
And I see the stars

I see the stars

(Shoot out the lights)
I see the stars most every night
(Shoot out the lights)
(I see the stars in black and white)
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
(I pray to God most every night)
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
(I see the stars in black and white)
Shoot out the lights
Shoot out the lights
(I pray to God most every night)
Shoot out the lights
(I see the stars)
(I see the stars)
I see the stars in black and white
And I pray to God
I pray to God

🎼[Red House (Jimi Hendrix Live!)] 🎼
There's a red house over yonder
That's where my baby stays
There's a red house over yonder, baby
That's where my baby stays
Well, I ain't been home to see my baby
Been about ninety nine and one half days
Long time no see
Wait a minute, something's wrong here
The key won't unlock this door
Wait a minute, something's wrong, baby
The key won't unlock the door
I have a bad, bad feeling
That my baby don't live here no more
That's alright I still got my guitar
Look out, baby
Yeah. that's alright
I might as well go on back down
Way back 'cross yonder over the hill
I might as well go back over yonder
Way back over yonder 'cross the hill
That where I came from
'Cause if my baby don't love me no more
I know her sister will!

Another snail costume. I think that people love costumes and super heroes because we all want to imagine ourselves as more. To have more beauty, more strength, more courage, more morality. I feel like it is in our nature to "worship" if we don't follow a church do we follow media or our own callings? Maybe I am off the mark but that is what I have been thinking about lately. Who do we listen to to find our purpose, our morality?

I am sure you guys are in need of a little palate cleanser.
Off my soap box for today, I know I been heavy on the topic matter of late with my imagery & pontifications. As always thank you guys for supporting this old bull in the china shop!
Now let's talk about this lovely place of reflective peace! Bella's Iceland inspired sim is just a perfect place to catch your breath and soak in some good vibes.
Bella shared the inspiration of this little earthen chapel.
[Abandoned Church In Iceland Built In 1789]
I think she nailed it!
By the door above my head, her little inspirational sign reads "Embrace The Love" we should all endorse this!
Embrace The Love! ☮️❤️☮️

They say everything can be replaced

I see my light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
They say every man needs protection
They say that every man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall
I see my light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
Now yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him shouting so loud
Just crying out that he was framed
I see my light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

So I saw this beautiful example of 1955 F-100 Ford, the moment I saw this I knew my song!
Funny story, so for months I have fighting some of these blog shoots. My viewer was not picking up reflective elements.
Most times it's not a thing in my imagery, but cars have a fair amount of chrome which on my viewer was reading black. I had to really shoot around that.
Finally I broke down and asked for some help from the In World Firestorm Group and it was corrected in 20 minutes. I should have seek help months ago.
I suppose we file that with (men don't ask for directions) thing.
I need to work on that!

🎶[Pickup Truck Song (Jerry Jeff Walker)] 🎶
Yea, I used to look forward to Saturdays
When me and my grandpa'd get way
We'd hop in his pickup truck and we'd go to town
We had a couple chores that we had to do
It didn't take long before we were throughC
Then we'd let the pickup truck just wander around
We'd make a run to the county dump
We'd always wave we saw someone
Grandpa make up a song as we rolled along
To the post office without fail
We get some feed and we'd check out the mail
And we never took the same road twice on the way back home
I spent a few years out runnin' free
I spent two or three in New York City
And I moved back to Texas tired, hell I'd had enough
I'd go to Luckenbach on Saturdays
Cause Hondo had a way to brighten up my day
He always made me laugh when we rode in his pickup truck
We'd make a run to the county dump
We'd always wave when we saw someone
Hondo'd make up a tale as we rolled along
To the post office without fail
He'd get some chew and we'd check out the mail
And we never took the same road twice on the way back home

FYI I traveled to the not so the war torn city of Portland Oregon twice in the last 2 weeks on our way a flyable race in WA, no fires no boarded up business, just one of the coolest fucking city's in the USA. A city built around a bookstore (Powells and I came home with 7 and 2 bottles of Westward American Craft Bourbon).
So Hey Folks! For those who have felt alone, angry and helpless since this version of our national dumpster fire began on inauguration Day 2025.
I have something just for you! PLEASE click on the link in the following paragraph that will help you find a moment of peace, you are not alone! Join millions of like minded people along with moi!
Saturday I personally will attend one of the over 2,500 events not just in the US (all 50 states) but across the glob.
I am going to exercise my First Amendment right to peaceably to assemble.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
I can tell you after the June No Kings Action it was huge boost to my soul!
Sorry again guys for going heavy, but we live in heavy times.
IN AMERICA, WE DON’T DO KINGS
Peace Out!

There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking' their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
What a field day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly saying, "hooray for our side"
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Now, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?

Soul Deep seems to be the gathering of the photography tribe kinda build. Really a lovely build the details are just lovely it is easy to see why it is so busy!
What caught my attention immediately was the VW Bus, I had an instant flash back to the finest coming of age film of my High School era! Some might say Breakfast Club or Dazed & Confused but NO! It would be Fast Times at Ridgemont High!
The parallels of my HS & Jeff Spicoli are numerous, other than not being a surfer pretty damn spot on! As my time on this big blue marble accumulates, I find myself coming to the full circle from I know everything to "I don't know and I don't care"
Peace Out ✌️

Why does the sun set in the west?
And why does my heart keep beating in my chest?
What ever happened to the Duke of Earl?
I gotta PBS mind in an MTV world
Is it ignorance or apathy?
I forget these lessons taught to me
Some say life isn't fair
Hey, I don't know, I don't care
Ambivalent, well, yes and no
Hey, where did all the hippies go?
Our conversation sounds like actors' lines
Is it time for your medication or mine?
Is it ignorance or apathy?
I forget these lessons taught to me
Some say life isn't fair
Hey, I don't know, I don't care
Therapy is extremely popular
Poppin' bubble wrap is radically cheap
You choose which one helps with your problems
I'm gonna get some sleep, I'm gonna get some sleep
Sandy beaches in distant reaches
And all those lovely Georgia peaches
It's never too much and never too late
To pack your bags and get out of state
Is it ignorance or apathy?
The worried will all disagree
Some say life isn't fair
Hell, I don't know, I don't care
If you're looking for a quote from me
I'll be under the mango tree
Just can't say how I'll get there
Hey, I don't know and I don't care
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know and I don't care
Je ne sais pas
Je ne carer
And math still suks
Uh oh, that's the end of this record
I gotta go out on the town
I don't know and I don't care

🌱 [Soul2Soul River] 🌱 Link fixed*
I was feeling the need for some zen today and happened upon this cool old barn from a lovely image by [Carey Chenault's Image]
Once I was on the sim I realized that I had shot this sim years ago in 2021 [Now The Green Blade Riseth (1) - Soul2Soul River]
I tried to keep to the feel of the original settings and post edit, while still adding some of the new tricks of the trade I picked up since then.
The lesson of the day is there are some superb builds that stand the test of time, this one for sure was so worth a revisit!
Peace!

🎼[Now The Green Blade Riseth (Steve Windwood)] 🎼
Now the green blade riseth, from the buried grain,
Wheat that in dark earth many days has lain;
Love lives again, that with the dead has been:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
In the grave they laid Him, Love who had been slain,
Thinking that He never would awake again,
Laid in the earth like grain that sleeps unseen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
Forth He came at Easter, like the risen grain,
Jesus who for three days in the grave had lain;
Quick from the dead the risen One is seen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
When our hearts are wintry, grieving, or in pain,
Jesus' touch can call us back to life again,
Fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

I've always had strong convictions when it came to morality and so I have lived most of my life feeling like I should have a decisive opinion on the after life and struggling when I didn't. This is one area where I think it is good to embrace the unknown and be open to all possibilities. If you think about it like a room where your thoughts exist, you want that door left open.
I've always loved it when ghosts appear in Japanese and Korean novels and films but I've never actually seen one myself to my knowledge. Some people feel they look like humans that are still alive so I could actually be seeing ghosts every day without realizing it (That might explain some really terrible drivers I suppose). I'm curious as to if any of you have had experiences with ghosts and what that was like. Maybe it's wrong of people to think of life ending at death.
Lately, I have been asking my father to visit my mother and I in our dreams to help us gain closure over the end of his life when we had to make medical decisions on his behalf when he was unresponsive. This hasn't happened yet, though, and the only dream I've had involving the dead was a couple of night ago when two vampires were trying to kill each other by stabbing one another in the heart with number two pencils (I want the rights to this film if you're reading A24!).
Anyway, no judgement here. If you have a ghost story to share, I want to read it no matter how long it is.

If you really wanna know what this wars all about
Take it from this man, there aint no doubt
Going to say what’s in my heart
My 1st amendment right
Got half a mind to talk all day and night
About black gold
Politian’s selling out for that black gold
Chasing that black gold
How could they be so cold
All for the love of that black gold
All for the love of that dirty old black gold
All for the wants of that funky old black gold
They say there aint no global warming
They are lies, wise and alibi
Make killing off the money
They think they are so wise
Sending our children off to war
They don’t care how long for
Sending our children to die
Without a sacred tear in their eye
About black gold
Politian’s selling out for that black gold
Chasing that black gold
How could they be so cold
Keep on drilling
Way down in the dirt
All for that old black gold
That’s all they think about
Plant our children in that deep black hole
Like some old hoe they sold our souls
They say that oil don’t gush
Who don’t say the earth don’t spill
Even our veterans are treated like dirt
That book don’t count
It has not been counted
We don’t believe it
We all doubt it
All for the wants of that funky old black gold
All these people living in tents
Homeless scrounging can’t pay rent
All for the wants of that funky old black gold
Lord they done stole that gold
All for the love of that funky old black gold

His paintings, sculptures, prints and drawings find inspiration in a range of sources: neoclassical sculpture of the 1700s, the art of James McNeill Whistler (1834–1903), the arch mannerism of poet Robert de Montesquiou (1855–1921), and storied places such as Venice, Italy, and its contemporary counterpart, Venice Beach, California. The cornerstone of his artistic project is an extensive series of portraits of young men appropriated from pre-AIDS erotic photographs. This series shares an affinity with the work of certain artists of the late 1800s who defied the prevailing morality of their time and furthered a secret language of coded homosexuality.
In this exhibition, a group of thirty recently acquired works created by Paul P. between 2003 and 2019 here act as portals for time travel between art-historical periods. In this way, they form a dialogue with a selection of other artworks from the National Gallery of Canada’s collection.

After seeing the sim and these superb posts from Clyde Essex & Myrdin Sommer, my inner Buck Rogers had to be expressed!
For our tune we are going back to this song from one of my favorite Stone Albums "Their Satanic Majesties Request" from 1967!
I know there are some cosmic metaphors in these lyrics!

🎶[2000 Light Years From Home (The Rolling Stones)] 🎶
Sun turnin' 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home
Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every part
It's so very lonely, you're 600 light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
Bell flight 14, you now can land
See you on Aldebaran
Safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely, you're 2, 000 light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're 2, 000 light years from home

I am Iron Man
Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care?
He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
When he traveled time
For the future of mankind
Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfurl
Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved
Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge
Heavy boots of lead
Fill his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!

Architecture Mix Episode 04: Tiban Minaret and Domes.
Boarding School Complex in Turen, Malang, East Java, Indonesia.
Boarding School Full Name: Pondok Pesantren Salafiah Bihaaru Bahri Asali Fadlaailir Rahmah.
Nick Name: Tiban
----Full Review :----
Many people call this place as Masjid Tiban (Tiban Mosque), but this place is actually an an Islamic Boarding School (Pondok Pesantren), Full Name of school: Pondok Pesantren Salafiah Bihaaru Bahri Asali Fadlaailir Rahmah. Nick name: Tiban.
The complex of this boarding school is wide (about 4-hectare), and the building its self huge and so beautiful. The total floor of this building reaches 10 floors, and may continue to grow.
The architecture of this boarding school is very unique, because a mix of middle east, china, and modern architecture. In the outside, there are beautiful blue minarets and domes. Maybe because of this, many people call this place as Masjid Tiban (Tiban Mosque). This building ornament is indeed super and detailed. Anyone who has done this is great.
There is a rumor about this place that this building was built by supernatural beings, of course it's a hoax :). The architect of this building was KH Achmad Bahru Mafdloludin Sholeh (Founder). Built by the students and people around, since 1978. This building is still under construction until now.
1. For buildings outside such as towers, domes, etc, most of them are finished.
2. For buildings inside, the lower floor is generally almost finished, but many of the upper floors are still not finished.
This complex have a small masjid (mosque) located a little far from the main building. The small size of the masjid is not comparable to the size of a very grand of main building. The architecture of the masjid is Middle East mosque style, white and simple. But the interior of masjid is very beautiful, colorful doom and room. (Check my photo to see it).
The main lesson for students here is to have great practice of virtue, morality and manners. Amazing curriculum. I met several students here, and they are very nice and kind.
I asked the students about why this boarding school complex built so grand and beautiful? The reason is to spread the world about the beauty of Islam by beautiful art and architecture. Wow! What a noble purpose!
Farmacia la Oficina, Galdár, Gran Canaria, Islas Canarias ▪️""Un camgymeriad y mae pobl y Gorllewin yn dal i'w wneud yw meddwl am gefnogwyr Israel fel pobl normal, rhai â safonau moesol normal, dim ond am ein bod yn eu hadnabod nhw ac yn ymwneud â nhw yn ein cymunedau. Maen nhw'n edrych fel ni, yn siarad fel ni, yn gwisgo fel ni ac yn ymddwyn fel ni, felly tybiwn ei bod hi'n rhaid eu bod nhw hefyd yn meddwl ac yn teimlo fel ni, i raddau helaeth. Ond dŷn nhw ddim. Os ydych chi'n dal i gefnogi Israel yn 2025, mae rhywbeth difrifol yn bod arnoch chi.
2025 yw hi. Mae milwyr Israelaidd yn dweud wrth y wasg Israelaidd eu bod nhw'n cael eu gorchymyn i ladd torfeydd o sifiliaid sydd ar lwgu wrth iddyn nhw geisio cael bwyd o ganolfannau cymorth. Mae meddygon di-rif wedi bod yn dweud wrth y byd bod saethwyr cudd Israelaidd yn saethu plant yn y pen ac yn y fron yn gwbl fwriadol ac yn rheolaidd, drwy Lain Gaza i gyd. Mae Amnest Rhyngwladol, Human Rights Watch, a'r holl arbenigwyr ar hil-laddiad, a'r holl awdurdodau ar hawliau dynol, yn dweud mai hil-laddiad sy'n digwydd yn Gaza. Mae hyd yn oed y New York Times wedi cyhoeddi colofn gyferbyn â'r un golofn olygyddol gan ysgolhaig ar yr hil-laddiad Seionaidd yn cyfaddef mai hil-laddiad yw hwn." Caitlin J---stone ▪️▪️"One mistake westerners keep making is thinking of Israel’s supporters as normal people with normal moral standards just because we happen to know them and interact with them in our communities. They look like us, speak like us, dress like us and act like us, so we assume they must think and feel a lot like us as well. But they don’t. If you’re still supporting Israel in the year 2025, there’s something seriously wrong with you as a person. You do not have a normal, healthy sense of empathy and morality.
It’s 2025. Israeli soldiers are telling the Israeli press that they’re being ordered to massacre starving civilians trying to obtain food from aid centers. Countless doctors have been telling the world that Israeli snipers are routinely, deliberately shooting children in the head and chest throughout the Gaza Strip. Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and all the leading genocide experts and human rights authorities are saying that a genocide is being perpetrated in Gaza. The New York fucking Times just published an op-ed by a Zionist genocide scholar who’s finally admitting that it’s a genocide." C--tl-n John----e

Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
She walked up to me
And really stole my heart
And then she started
To take my body apart
Living, loving, I'm on the run
Far away from you
Living, loving, I'm on the run
So far away from you
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, I'm going fast
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, I'm going fast
It's only just a moment
She's turning paranoid
That's not a situation
For a n-nervous boy
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
But you look so angry
As I crawl across your floor
She's got the strength
And I can't take any more
Living, loving, I'm on the run
So far away from you
Living, loving, I'm on the run
So far away from you
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, I'm going fast
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please
Oh, I'm going fast

Excerpt from historicwalkingtrail.com/location/texas-masonic-lodge/:
The Texas Lodge Masonic Hall is one of the oldest, most iconic buildings in San Juan Bautista, andthe second oldest masonic lodge in California that is still active in its original location. The Free and Accepted Masonsis the first fraternal organization in San Juan.
Edward Farris Storey migrated to California with 42 other Texan Masons in 1852, and was granted a charter in 1854 to found a Masonic Lodge in the area of San Juan. By the end of 1854, according to Lodge minutes, membership was 20. The Masons met in various places until the National Hotel (located where Verutti Park is now) was built in 1858, and a room was made available for their meetings. Membership had grown to 110 by 1867 when they decided to build their own building. A wooden sign above the Texas Lodge Masonic Hall entrance reads “Texas Lodge #46 F&AM Chartered May 6, 1854, Building Completed, June 24, 1869.”
The upper floor of the building has continued to be used as the meeting hall of the Masons, and the lower floor was originally rented to doctors and other professionals. The large main room downstairs has served in a variety of capacities over the years. It was used for the Wells Fargo Express Office, the Justice of the Peace Office, the meeting space for monthly City Council meetings around the turn of the 19th century; then the telephone company used the space from 1901-1924; the U.S. Post Office was then housed in the space, followed by the San Juan library until 1979. Most recently, the downstairs rooms have been rented to businesses .
This rectangular two and a half story building is constructed in the Italianate Victorian style with a wood-framed structural system on a concrete foundation. The façade is symmetrical and has a 3-step stairway leading to a central recessed entrance flanked by 4 symmetrically placed 8-pane vertical window doors with triangular pediment moldings above.
The second story has 5 vertical paired arched windows with elaborate molded pediments above. The overhanging boxed cornice features scroll corbels and decorated parapet. A recessed central gable pediment tops the cornice and denotes the main entrance, and the front door swings both inward and outward. A rectangular tower with a low overhanging hipped roof and tall arched windows rises from the junction of the central gable and the medium pitched, side-gabled roof made of corrugated metal. The sides feature symmetrically placed 6-pane sash windows with molded cornice and a broken pediment on the lower cornice of the roof gable. Other notable features are quoined wood corners imitating stone, the framed semi-circular air vents within the side pediments, and the horizontal redwood shiplap siding throughout. One-story medium-gabled roof additions extend from the rear; an iron fire escape on the east side and a wooden fire escape on the west were also added. The original board sidewalk along the full width of the building was replaced with a gravel walk, which was then transitioned to concrete steps. In 2017 the building underwent a much-needed, extensive renovation and exterior painting.
Freemasonry describes itself as a “beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols.”Accordingly, buildings are to be constructed in an east/west orientation (sunrise and sunset), representing Solomon’s Temple. This building adorns gold enhancement of the starburst pattern framed within the side gables and the gold ball atop the cupola, depicts the sun at meridian height. Symbols and rituals abound in the upstairs meeting room: the compass and the square, which is the most widely known symbol of Masonry, the all-seeing eye, and the letter G, symbolizing both geometry and God. Masons use metaphors from geometry and the architecture of stonemasonry to represent their ongoing pursuit of knowledge, ethics, and leadership skills.
