During the last days I went through all the photos I took during the last year and chose a few favourites. Based on these I analysed a bit, what kind of pictures I made and thought about that might change during 2025.

Six months after Joker had been admitted to the Asylum the GCPD happened upon his contingency plan. A bomb built into a newly constructed wall beneath the Gotham cathedral. Analysis of the wall found that there was no way to remove the bomb without dismantling the wall which would bring the whole cathedral down. Thus there was only one option. Disarm the bomb before it could detonate. Joker had left the bomb on a timer that had been counting down from over the last six months and was due to detonate the next day.
In order to disarm the bomb a code was needed. Checking the keypad for prints yielded nothing, evidently Joker had the pad wiped clean after he activated the timer. That means the only way to disarm the bomb is to get him to hand over the timer. Needless to say, after the events in the tunnel of love, Jim was keen to keep me as far away from Joker as possible. As such it fell to Warden Quincy Sharp to convince Joker to hand over the code. Given how Arkham is regarded as a psychiatric hospital the guards aren’t allowed to use unconventional interrogation techniques so warden Sharp appealing to Joker’s human decency didn’t go down well.
Attachment: Warden Office CCTV – September 22nd 14:30
”Quincy old boy how are things? Still balding I see.”
“Do you know why I’ve called you here?”
”You’re finally retiring?”
“The bomb.”
”What bomb? That record Cash made?”
“The one under Gotham cathedral.”
”Bombing a church? That sounds more like Riddler’s MO. You know how much he loves insulting religion.”
“We know it’s yours.”
”I resent that! I’m not the only clown in Gotham with a love of explosives. Why’s it got to be me?”
“Probably because you signed the scene.”
”Oh yeah haha.”
“Give us the code.”
”Or what Sharpy? You gonna give me a stern talking to? Make me feel bad about myself?”
“You know this is wrong Jack.”
”WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?”
Joker charges forward at the Warden’s desk in anger, stopped only by Cash managing to grab hold of him.
”WHAT DID YOU SAY?”
“Tell me the code Jack. No-one needs to get hurt.”
”If you want my help then you know who I’ll talk to!”
“What if he doesn’t want to talk to you?”
”Then boom! Hahahaha.”
“Take him back to his cell, and get me Gordon on the line.”
End of attachment.
Ever since we first crossed paths after he murdered Loeb, Joker’s always had a case of waring personalities between two personas. Jack Napier, a wannabe comedian and the Joker, a clown trying to make the world smile by causing misery to others. After we faced off against one another the Joker persona has slowly but surely begun to dominate Jack to the point where I’m not entirely sure if Jack’s in there anymore. That was cemented after that night in ACE Chemicals. Joker was trying to gather the components necessary to mass produce a new variant of the Joker toxin. Thanks to an analysis of the toxin I was able to piece together that the only place he could gather the compounds necessary on such a large scale was ACE Chemicals.
With that foreknowledge I had the GCPD set a trap for Joker and his men. It all went exactly as I had hoped. All of Joker’s men were arrested by the GCPD but Joker seemingly escaped. What Jim and I didn’t know was that Joker ended up falling into a vat of chemicals during the firefight. He wouldn’t be discovered until the ACE Chemicals workers emptied the vat the following morning. Many believe that’s the straw that broke the camel’s back.
Since then there’s been no reports of the Jack persona being exhibited by Joker. I fear it can be speculated that my hopes of purging the Joker persona from Jack ended up merely cementing his presence.
Alfred’s always speculated that Jason’s murder was Jack lashing out for what I did to him. Maybe he’s right, but I like to think otherwise. Perhaps that’s just me being desperate and hoping that deep down I didn’t end up killing Jack Napier. Either way, I now have to deal primarily with the Joker persona, and I had to deal with him in order to get the code to disarm the bomb under Gotham cathedral.
Attachment: Therapy Session Recording – Joker #2
“Therapy session 2. Patient’s name: J……”
There’s a long pause on the tape. Without a video feed it’s difficult to tell what’s making her hesitate but it’s implied that Joker was staring at her rather intensly.
”Joker. Acting physician, Doctor Harleen Quinzel. Date of session 22nd of September. Previous session was cut short so this session is designed to make up the remaining time from the previous session.”
”Cash can be so rude interrupting our one on one time like that.”
”From what I hear it was the Warden who cut out session short.”
”Word travels fast around here.”
”Well it’s not everyday a patient gets called up to the Warden’s office. You must have done something serious.”
”I just gave him some advice on how to stop his head from balding.”
”Warden Sharp is balding?”
”I think he’s considering wearing a wig.”
”Really?”
”Yeah the silly old fool.”
”So, Joker….”
”Yes Doctor?”
”Going back to our conversation. Why do you find yourself obsessed with the Batman?”
”Why do you find yourself obsessed with me?”
”I ask the questions here.”
”You’re hoping that if you can understand me that you will be able to understand him.”
”Perhaps.”
”Tell me, what’s the market at the moment for a book about the mind of the Batman?”
There’s a long pause. Evidently Dr. Quinzel was shocked that Joker knew she was just using him to write a book.
”Must be pretty good if you’re willing to talk to one of Gotham’s grade A crazies.”
”You think of yourself as crazy?”
”You don’t?”
”…”
”The world’s a funny old place Doctor. It’ll do all it can to break you. The only thing that separates us from the animals is how we let the world break us. Some give up. Some fight back. Some go mad.”
”Is that what happened to you? The world tried to break you?”
”Of course.”
”Which action did you take?”
”What do you think?”
”…”
”You think I went mad.”
”You don’t?”
”Oh goodness no. I know I went mad. But unlike most, I accept it.”
”Who do you know that doesn’t?”
”Who do you think?”
”The Batman?”
”I couldn’t possibly say.”
”You think he’s mad?”
”Nooooooo……..I don’t think a man dressing up as a bat is mad the same way I don’t think a man dressing as a clown is mad.”
”Of course.”
”I suppose….”
”Suppose…?”
”In many ways you’re right.”
”How so?”
”He and I are alike.”
”Why do you say that?”
”I know it. He’s yet to accept it, but deep down he knows it as well.”
”You think Batman knows he’s crazy?”
”Maybe. Or perhaps he’s crazier than me?”
”I’m not sure many people would agree on that.”
”Probably not. But I at least know I’m crazy. If anything he’s mad to think he’s sane.”
”Maybe he is. But why do you think you’re mad?”
”Probably thanks to dear old daddy.”
”The one who hit you?”
”Do you know another?”
”So you think he’s the one responsible for who made you into this?”
”Goodness no. Sure daddy dearest didn’t help the situation but he didn’t make me.”
”Then what did?” The Batman?”
”Nope. All it took to break was one simple thing. One bad day.”
”What happened on that day?”
”Life destroyed my world.”
”What happened?”
”I…I…..”
”You can tell J. You can trust me.”
”I saw my wife murdered in front of my eyes.”
”….I didn’t know you were married…”
”I prefer it that way.”
”When was she killed?”
”Five years ago.”
”Just before you killed Commissioner Loeb.”
”It was that long ago? It feels like it was yesterday.”
”You feel remorseful?”
”I always do.”
”Then why do you keep killing more people if you don’t want to?”
”How else am I supposed to drown out the voices?”
”Voices?”
”Their screams.”
”You hear their screams?”
”Everytime I close my eyes. Sniff I just want to make them stop.”
”Hey hey it’s alright. It’s going to be alright. I promise.”
“Time’s up Doc.”
”Alright. Thanks Cash.”
“Are you crying clown?”
”Go to hell Cash.”
”We’ll be just a minute Cash. Session terminated at 16:30. Dr Quinzel signing off.”
Harley didn’t know it then, but Joker didn’t actually feel any remorse for his victims. In fact, he’s often taken pleasure from making them suffer slowly, but Harley didn’t know that and though she couldn’t tell, Joker had already set his claws into her.

Astronauts from five space agencies around the world take part in ESA’s CAVES training course– Cooperative Adventure for Valuing and Exercising human behaviour and performance Skills.
The three-week course prepares astronauts to work safely and effectively in multicultural teams in an environment where safety is critical.
As they explore caves they encounter caverns, underground lakes and strange microscopic life. They test new technology and conduct science – just as if they were living on the International Space Station.
The six astronauts have to rely on their own skills, teamwork and ground control to achieve their mission goals – the course is designed to foster effective communication, decision-making, problem-solving, leadership and team dynamics.
The six cavenauts of this edition of CAVES are ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst, NASA astronauts Joe Acaba and Jeanette Epps, Roscosmos’ cosmonaut Nikolai Chub, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Josh Kutryk and Japan’s space agency Takuya Onishi.

On June 29, 2011, ICESCAPE chief scientist Kevin Arrigo made the first analysis of chlorophyll pigment of the 2011 campaign. Nutrients supporting a massive phytoplankton bloom at the Chukchi hotspot in 2010 were not evident in 2011 data.
The ICESCAPE mission, or "Impacts of Climate on Ecosystems and Chemistry of the Arctic Pacific Environment," is NASA's two-year shipborne investigation to study how changing conditions in the Arctic affect the ocean's chemistry and ecosystems. The bulk of the research takes place in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas in summer 2010 and 2011.

E.g. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zf0ZyoUn7Vk
However being constitutionally unable to ever 'forget about it' or anything completely and hence therefore consequently have found formal logical use for that 'issue' as answer to being driven ceaselessly to attempt to compute comprehensively the 'billion dollar question that solves for X,Y, and Z: Power, Expansion, and Shrink of the Universe in the micro to macro -- so as to go for broke (and be 'first v. last') in the Dark Matter and Energy Derby -- well well what the hell, then' lets be the first to reconcile the quantum dynamic with the quantum mechanic by means the gears of nature to explain the manufacture, combustion, and bending of light as the best set of questions worth answering in science which might be very well be concluded in the; 'Abstract' by considering en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter as 100% presently accounted for in the form of atomic bits of Bacteria. Primarily the family of Bacteria know as en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanobacteria which serves as the common subatomic denominator (complimentary quark loop repair - as cosmic glue+fuel) for both food and combustion chains by means of its role the natural manufacture and fixation of Nitorgen in the form of N2O that can be seen powering this photo as the Dark Matter and Energy of contained in the atomic stack of examples of reality in search of a theory that drives the expansion of the Universe and a burger chain, whereby it is possible 'Billions' are successfully 'Served' so much Bacterial Dark Matter that proves fuel as Energy as expressed as so many 'Big Macs' and or 'Happy Meals' or plates of pasta + the decision process over which to choose as dinner which results in a chain reaction of Hiesenburgian proportions rippling though the micro economics of the BTU (British and or Bacterial Thermal Units) of calories and bacteria as slow and fast food to power a world served by the billion by the 'Golden Arches' and iron skillet as examples of how my reasoning flows from the following data set and where it points after being clued into the role of bacteria and its large role in the combustion chain of N20 mfg. (c/o reading reporting in the Science News over the years and drawing conclusions from that, confirmed by) what wikipedia has condensed as the entire 'nutshell' of the case (which makes possible nutshells): "Nitrous oxide is emitted by bacteria in soils and oceans, and thus has been a part of Earth's atmosphere for millennia. ... Nitrous oxide reacts with ozone in the stratosphere. Nitrous oxide is the main naturally occurring regulator of stratospheric ozone. Nitrous oxide is a major greenhouse gas. Considered over a 100-year period, it has 298 times more impact per unit weight than carbon dioxide. Thus, despite its low concentration, nitrous oxide is the fourth largest contributor to these greenhouse gases. It ranks behind water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane. Control of nitrous oxide is part of efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions. " - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide . In addition there is the world of undersea Bacteria which seems to be massive as source of gasses, energy and life as explored in; moreintelligentlife.com/content/ideas/some-it-very-hot?pa...
Thus, in the quest to complete the Dark Energy and Matter puzzle the need to grab the 'keys to the car' of conceptually total comprehension of the 'bits of information' scooped up over the million miles of the road 'less traveled' at high and low speed on the highway of life in a peddle to the metal race to complete the General Unified Theory, and having had and idea or two, while being singularly motivated by a clear understanding of 'the need for speed' in completing as a thought started explained in the sports terms of the 'mantra' of the movie 'Talladaga Nights' as ultra apt metaphor for the race to identify Dark Matter and Energy;

Ergo, therefore, hence, consequently I reason ("the old fashioned way"; between my ears for days, weeks and years) and take detailed -- note (in this space) that; phys.org/news/2012-12-dark.html "The excitement now is that we are closing in on an answer, and only once in the history of humans will someone discover it. There will be some student or postdoc or experimentalist someplace who is going to look in the next 10 years at their data, and of the seven or so billion people in the world that person will discover what galaxies are mostly made of. It's only going to happen once."
One more time with meaning; It is hypothesised here that the bactarial subatomic bits and bonds of the; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Phylogenetic_tree.svg whose branches are gaseous and or part of the combustion/food chain as discovered/understood, 'that therefore, in the words of the late Carl Woese;
“Imagine walking out in the countryside and not being able to tell a snake from a cow from a mouse from a blade of grass,” he said. “That’s been the level of our ignorance.” on the subject as understood best ' by the late great Carl Woese ( www.nytimes.com/2013/01/01/science/carl-woese-dies-discov... ) who was able to "prove that all life on earth was related.” It is suggested here (again) that light and thus life is made possible by single celled life running the combustion chain by means nitrous oxide manufacture without which combustion is not possible is the singular candidate for being Dark Matter begets Dark Energy due to its immutable nature of the nuclear core of the nucleus of Bacteria.
Accordingly every angle of a drop of something such as: salsa in the micro should bend light by the same 'dark material/energy' means of 'economic activity of biological growth drawn from the Sun and the field by the roots reaching for energy and drawing them to a plant to form sugar that creates the shade being cast by Phylogenetic tree as so much gas/power as a by product in the process that moves at near the speed of light as observed and made a example of the micro case of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractometry that corresponds to the macro of 'cosmic microwaves' (which act as break and limit on the speed of light [in another evolving story line located at] -->);

Some disagree and say Dark Matter is nonexistent and or immaterial. I respectful disagree, and hopefully have provided additional information in order to assist with understanding how my view came to be on this subject, such that some some new common ground can be broken by bacteria being the dark energetic means and motor of forging the fabric of the food and combustion chains by means algaes bloom as the base note to the mass fixation and productions of the nitrogen that is the gas of the Universe -- which therefore permits and powers the rest of life as we know it over time and space by means forming the basis food pyramid that enables combustion and thus gearing perfectly the solar to black hole ongoing process -- in this solar system and every other.
As more data is generated in understanding how perspective can never stay the same as per the logic contained in a draconian application of the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_transformation to a unwillingness to see the shadow as being cast by the flip side of a reflection, as light is consumed by and transformed by the power of life the is the foam of space which are quarks of bacterial nuclei in repair.

That the same transformation that powers the light switch where I might find enough between my ears to communicate the understanding that the bugs have been digesting themselves into energy per this chart; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:080998_Universe_Content_240.jpg
If in the words of Bronkowski: "All science is the search for unity in hidden likeness." as being understood to be what makes the world go round in the compost heap, vineyard, farm that power a food chain, that provides a Inn and given Industry with the bill of fare via the "Stars that power" them c/o the means of 'paired quark technology' that recompose itself atomically to 'key' the light -- which furthers expand our understanding by means of the power of light and dark matter to producing 'grey matter' which is consciousness. That the grass is not 'greener' or made of substantively some wonder material of a Dark Nature in another galaxy, therefore Dark Matter, and Energy 'is what it is' the immutable atomic information of 'microorganisms' cycling at relative light speed as so many 'cups of tea', or conceptual coffee, 'primordial soup' to perhaps nuts -- or maybe, just maybe, the 'hidden likeness' is before us in the form of Microorganisms nuclear core that make up the macro.
There is a possibility that this particular pointy and self seeking 7th now up to 8th billionth odd needle in the haystack of discovery has made most of the case in this long improbable form and location that the seeds of nuclear material that keep and make us all connected as singular and a planet grade life/being/form and function -- is the Dark Energy and Matter which is the basic building blocks of life which are ID'ed here and now for all time by me - 'like I have been sayin' as the three families of Bacterial life which produce combustion gasses, as best understood by the late great Carl Woese; www.nytimes.com/2013/01/01/science/carl-woese-dies-discov... which contains the seeds/strings if you will* of a expanding en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersymmetry

Energy is yin and yang forward and backward moving of quarks in motion over time and space under power of the Sun that set the chain of events and matter in motion will that Sun never set as a series of consequences beating ceaselessly into the past against the current to bring the light found shining at approximately my end of the conceptual quantum tunnel of a nitrogen rich solar system where in a Universe full of Dark Energy and accordingly full of potential life, with therefore accordingly the magic to run the both the food, and combustion chains - while turning worlds in the quantum dynamic process; organically by means the power of light to be the gearbox of life in the mechanical dynamic of the process of Nature, sorting the matter of matter and energy over Time -- to produce the Universe as at the present rate with the math holding the reality of this theory together to be found in the ground breaking work of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmy_Noether and her en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noether%27s_theorem if I am not completely unclear on the concept; applied.
Ending by Noting:
That if this hypothesis that comports with my reality jibes with that of the Universe then that is my aim which seeks to be 'true' so as to best serve to better focus the tuning out the noises in the signal, that impair this singular quest for multiple answers on Dark Matter and Energy along with the consequences of riddle the behavior patterns of the Universe understood as clues to answer this rather vexing and formerly huge mystery -- which suites me perfectly.

Voronezh is a city and the administrative centre of Voronezh Oblast in southwestern Russia straddling the Voronezh River, located 12 kilometers (7.5 mi) from where it flows into the Don River. The city sits on the Southeastern Railway, which connects western Russia with the Urals and Siberia, the Caucasus and Ukraine, and the M4 highway (Moscow–Voronezh–Rostov-on-Don–Novorossiysk). In recent years the city has experienced rapid population growth, rising in 2021 to 1,057,681, up from 889,680 recorded in the 2010 Census, making it the 14th-most populous city in the country.
For many years, the hypothesis of the Soviet historian Vladimir Zagorovsky dominated: he produced the toponym "Voronezh" from the hypothetical Slavic personal name Voroneg. This man allegedly gave the name of a small town in the Chernigov Principality (now the village of Voronizh in Ukraine). Later, in the 11th or 12th century, the settlers were able to "transfer" this name to the Don region, where they named the second city Voronezh, and the river got its name from the city. However, now many researchers criticize the hypothesis, since in reality neither the name of Voroneg nor the second city was revealed, and usually the names of Russian cities repeated the names of the rivers, but not vice versa.
A comprehensive scientific analysis was conducted in 2015–2016 by the historian Pavel Popov. His conclusion: "Voronezh" is a probable Slavic macrotoponym associated with outstanding signs of nature, has a root voron- (from the proto-Slavic vorn) in the meaning of "black, dark" and the suffix -ezh (-azh, -ozh). It was not “transferred” and in the 8th - 9th centuries it marked a vast territory covered with black forests (oak forests) - from the mouth of the Voronezh river to the Voronozhsky annalistic forests in the middle and upper reaches of the river, and in the west to the Don (many forests were cut down). The historian believes that the main "city" of the early town-planning complex could repeat the name of the region – Voronezh. Now the hillfort is located in the administrative part of the modern city, in the Voronezh upland oak forest. This is one of Europe's largest ancient Slavic hillforts, the area of which – more than 9 hectares – 13 times the area of the main settlement in Kyiv before the baptism of Rus.
In it is assumed that the word "Voronezh" means bluing - a technique to increase the corrosion resistance of iron products. This explanation fits well with the proximity to the ancient city of Voronezh of a large iron deposit and the city of Stary Oskol. As well as the name of Voroneț Monastery known for its blue shade.
Folk etymology claims the name comes from combining the Russian words for raven (ворон) and hedgehog (еж) into Воронеж. According to this explanation two Slavic tribes named after the animals used this combination to name the river which later in turn provided the name for a settlement. There is not believed to be any scientific support for this explanation.
In the 16th century, the Middle Don basin, including the Voronezh river, was gradually conquered by Muscovy from the Nogai Horde (a successor state of the Golden Horde), and the current city of Voronezh was established in 1585 by Feodor I as a fort protecting the Muravsky Trail trade route against the slave raids of the Nogai and Crimean Tatars. The city was named after the river.
17th to 19th centuries
In the 17th century, Voronezh gradually evolved into a sizable town. Weronecz is shown on the Worona river in Resania in Joan Blaeu's map of 1645. Peter the Great built a dockyard in Voronezh where the Azov Flotilla was constructed for the Azov campaigns in 1695 and 1696. This fleet, the first ever built in Russia, included the first Russian ship of the line, Goto Predestinatsia. The Orthodox diocese of Voronezh was instituted in 1682 and its first bishop, Mitrofan of Voronezh, was later proclaimed the town's patron saint.
Owing to the Voronezh Admiralty Wharf, for a short time, Voronezh became the largest city of South Russia and the economic center of a large and fertile region. In 1711, it was made the seat of the Azov Governorate, which eventually morphed into the Voronezh Governorate.
In the 19th century, Voronezh was a center of the Central Black Earth Region. Manufacturing industry (mills, tallow-melting, butter-making, soap, leather, and other works) as well as bread, cattle, suet, and the hair trade developed in the town. A railway connected Voronezh with Moscow in 1868 and Rostov-on-Don in 1871.
