Happy 5 months my sweet and wonderful Daddy. Never did I imagine that I would meet someone like you in this amazing and strange world that is Second Life. Time just melts away when we are together and every moment with you feels like magic. We've never even had one disagreement. I am so thankful that fate dropped me into the same sim as you on my luckiest day ever. I love you❤️
Just lose control
Ride it, ride it, come touch my soul
Ride it, ride it, let me feel you
Ride it, turn the lights down low
Ride it, from head to toe
Ride it, ride it, come touch my soul
Ride it, ride it, let me feel you
Regard ~ Ride It
This is (now) my local crag, and the place my dear old Dad first took me climbing 14 years ago. I often pop up for sunset because it's frustratingly hard to photograph, and I'm never happy with my images!
This made me laugh happy though. Incredible how far we've come in a matter of months:

Taking back control and getting rid of all that red tape, eh? 😆 Happy weekend!
The stone of Coyote Buttes has been eroded by wind and water over Eons into a myriad of forms. The minerals seeping and collecting along concentration gradients give the rock its sharply defined colored layers . This one is called the Control Tower.

I probably should have waited for Sliders Sunday to post this image because it's been heavily manicured as you can see. This was perhaps one of those cases where I should have left good enough alone and just posted the original image which was perfectly ok in its own right. But I had it in my mind that this looked to me like a conveyer belt of people being transported into the bowels of some mysterious superstructure (even though the people on the left are coming down - don't look too closely!😂).
And then the title of that early Pink Floyd song came into my head. The connection was made and well, the rest is history.
Part of the old salt evaporation facility at Newark, California. Controlling water flow from one pond to another.
Now, a part of the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, and being restored to wetlands.
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?
I'm well acquainted with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so they'll never die when I'm dead
And I've grown familiar with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so I'll never die when I'm dead
I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones

Bahla Fort (Qal'at Bahla) is one of four historic fortresses situated at the foot of the Djebel Akhdar highlands in Oman. It was built in the 13th and 14th centuries, when the oasis of Bahla was prosperous under the control of the Banu Nabhan tribe. The fort's ruined adobe walls and towers rise some 165 feet above its sandstone foundations. Nearby to the southwest is the Friday Mosque with a 14th-century sculpted mihrab. The fort was not restored or conserved before 1987, and had fallen into a parlous state, with parts of the walls collapsing each year in the rainy season. The fort became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. It was included in the List of World Heritage in Danger from 1988. Restoration works began in the 1990s, and nearly $9m were spent by the Omani government from 1993 to 1999. It remained covered with scaffolding and closed to tourists for many years. It was removed from the list of endangered sites in 2004.

my first half decent shot of a rufous hummingbird, they are attempting to take control of the feeders, keeping the anna's away to the best of their ability. I only have had the male visit on a couple of occasions that I have noticed...it was a pretty high ISO so not as sharp as I would have hoped

I cut off his feet and one wingtip, but I'm fascinated by all the little control surfaces that these egrets have to work with. Check out those leading edge feathers helping to slow his descent

Unless we step into the uncharted territory of the gender revolution, we know exactly where we will be regressing. An all-powerful State that infantilises us, interferes in all our decisions for our own good and—under the pretext of protecting us—keeps us in a childish state of ignorance, fear of punishment and exclusion. The special treatment until now reserved for women, with shame as the primary tool for ensuring their isolation, passivity and lack of protest, could now be extended to all. To understand the mechanics of how women have been made to feel inferior, and induced to willingly maintain themselves in this state, is to understand how the entire population is kept under control. Capitalism is an egalitarian religion, in the sense that it demands general submission, making everyone feel trapped—as all women are.
