From the Archives Today is very cold with HIGH winds so I thought a nice flower picture would help get us thru this COLD day.
I think by now you realize that I'm fairly shameless when it comes to wearing crazy costumes in public, but I totally give props to my sister for going along with this. However, the costumes were a big hit, and lots of people immediately got the reference, with several people calling out, "Cetacean Ops!" as they saw us. Gotta love Dragon Con!

Matt D?Arrigo: Art: a force for change
Matt D?Arrigo is CEO and founder of A Reason to Survive (ARTS), a nationally recognized San Diego organization providing arts programs and career preparation for youth facing adversity. His belief in the power of the arts stems from the year he spent caring for his mother and sister as they both battled cancer, during which he relied heavily on his art and love of music to help him face an extraordinary life challenge. A student in the ARTS Empower program was the subject of Inocente, winner of the 2012 Oscar © for best short documentary.
I recently painted this Birthday card for a family member Linda. The dog in the painting is Lindas Bulldog called Monty and she was over the moon and very surprised when she received it.
Also trying out my new watermark that I've reluctantly decided to start using. I don't claim that I create great things so people want to steal my photos, I've just recently noticed quite a few of my photos (some of them being ones I wouldn't even think people would want) being used on others peoples web sites, social media pages etc where it no longer links back to original source, here, and with my old very discrete watermarks cropped off.

I think I was the type of child that would wander off, so I think that's why I'm in a stroller that might be a little too small for me.
Aside from that, I'm wearing some pretty sweet Adidas sneakers. The bonnet isn't so sweet, but I guess that's to keep the sun off of my face. Also, it appears that I had stocky legs from a young age.
Demi Lovato Thinks....
I got bored and made this.
This is also on my tumblr. www.tonighteverythingisfine.tumblr.com
oh and if you know the song "Got Dynamite" by Demi Lovato, you should understand this..
Thank God for this sign.
Please note that it's not like this *used* to be a road at any time. It's never been a road. Ever. Also, you'd have to drive over a giant curb to even get up there. Also, there's another "road closed" sign on the right because it's obviously such a temptation that they need to tell you twice.
Disappointing day at Bempton Cliffs last week with Hans Davis (Sadloafer).Confronted with a sea fret (which has lasted into this week!).Will try again next month! Kitttiwakes and gannets - wonderful birds.

Living in Transit: The Thinkers of a World in Turmoil
War looms over Europe, uncertainty seeps into everyday life, and the weight of history presses upon the present. The world is burning, and yet—there are those who seek understanding, those who bury themselves in the quiet refuge of books, the dim glow of libraries, the solitude of knowledge.
This series captures the introspective minds of young academic women—readers, thinkers, seekers. They wander through old university halls, their fingers tracing the spines of forgotten books, pulling out volumes of poetry, philosophy, and psychology. They drink coffee, they drink tea, they stay up late with ink-stained fingers, trying to decipher the world through words.
They turn to Simone Weil for moral clarity, Hannah Arendt for political insight, Rilke for existential wisdom. They read Baudrillard to untangle the illusions of modernity, Byung-Chul Han to understand society’s exhaustion, Camus to grasp the absurdity of it all. They devour Celan’s poetry, searching for beauty in catastrophe.
But they do not just read—they reflect, they question, they write. Their world is one of quiet resistance, an intellectual sanctuary amidst the chaos. In their solitude, they are not alone. Across time, across history, across the pages they turn, they are in conversation with those who, too, have sought meaning in troubled times.
This is a series about thought in transit—about seeking, reading, questioning, about the relentless pursuit of knowledge when the world feels on the brink.
Where the Thinkers Go
They gather where the dust has settled,
where books whisper in the hush of halls.
Pages thin as breath, torn at the edges,
cradling centuries of questions.
They drink coffee like it’s ink,
trace words like constellations,
follow Rilke into the dusk,
where solitude hums softly in the dark.
Outside, the world is fraying—
war threading through the seams of cities,
the weight of history pressing forward.
Inside, they turn pages, searching
for answers, for solace, for fire.
And somewhere between the lines,
between time-stained margins and fading ink,
they find the ghosts of others who
once sought, once wondered, once read—
and they do not feel alone.
Three Haikus
Night falls on paper,
books stacked like silent towers,
thoughts burn in the dark.
Tea cools in the cup,
a poem lingers on lips,
war rumbles beyond.
Footsteps in silence,
the scent of old ink and dust,
pages turn like ghosts.
ooOOOoo
Reading as Resistance
These young women do not read passively. They underline, they take notes, they write in the margins. They challenge the texts and themselves. They read because the world demands it of them—because, in a time of conflict and uncertainty, thought itself is an act of resistance.
Their books are worn, their pages stained with coffee, their minds alive with the urgency of understanding.

Isabelle Stengers – Another Science is Possible (rethinking knowledge and resistance in an era of corporate science)
Kate Raworth – Doughnut Economics (rethinking economic models for social and ecological justice)
Donna Haraway – Staying with the Trouble (rethinking coexistence and posthumanist futures)
The Future of Thought
These are not just books; they are weapons, tools, compasses. These women read not for escapism, but for resistance. In a time of political upheaval, climate catastrophe, and rising authoritarianism, they seek alternative visions, radical possibilities, and new ways of imagining the world.
Their books are annotated, their margins filled with questions, their reading lists always expanding. Knowledge is not just power—it is revolution.
The Thinker c. 1880
by Auguste Rodin
France, 19th century
Bronze
Rodin originally conceived The Thinker as a depiction of the Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265–1321) sitting in the upper center of a monumental sculptural doorway titled The Gates of Hell. Inspired by Dante’s description of a journey through the underworld in his epic poem The Divine Comedy (about 1320), The Thinker contemplates mankind’s fate while gazing at a host of damned figures writhing in anguish below.
