😡😲😾😾😾😡Concerns about the common garden bird’s well being have been raised in recent years as birdwatchers have reported fewer Blackbirds in their gardens, especially in the Greater London area since 2020. This decline has been linked to the recent appearance of a mosquito-borne virus (Usutu virus) affecting the species in England. 😮😭😭

Hiena relaxation by E-C-K Art

The Cat

Come, superb cat, to my amorous heart;

Hold back the talons of your paws,

Let me gaze into your beautiful eyes

Of metal and agate.

When my fingers leisurely caress you,

Your head and your elastic back,

And when my hand tingles with the pleasure

Of feeling your electric body,

In spirit I see my woman. Her gaze

Like your own, amiable beast,

Profound and cold, cuts and cleaves like a dart,

And, from her head down to her feet,

A subtle air, a dangerous perfume

Floats about her dusky body.

— William Aggeler, The Flowers of Evil (Fresno, CA: Academy Library Guild, 1954)

Opium Poppy bud by SScreativeImage

The opium poppy fructification under the sunshine.

The opium poppy fructification, or the development of the opium poppy fruit, is influenced by various environmental factors, including sunlight. The opium poppy (Papaver somniferum) is known for its distinctive flowers and the production of opium, a substance that contains various alkaloids, including morphine and codeine.

Sunlight plays a crucial role in the growth and development of opium poppies. Like many plants, opium poppies require sunlight for photosynthesis, a process through which they produce energy by converting sunlight into chemical energy. This energy is essential for the synthesis of nutrients and the overall growth of the plant.

In terms of fructification, or the formation of the fruit, sunlight is important for the development and maturation of the opium poppy capsule, which contains the seeds. Adequate sunlight contributes to the proper ripening of the capsule and the seeds within. The duration and intensity of sunlight can affect the timing of flowering and seed development in opium poppies.

It's worth noting that opium poppies are cultivated for various purposes, including the production of pharmaceutical opiates and the extraction of seeds for culinary use. However, the cultivation and use of opium poppies for the production of opium and its derivatives are regulated due to their potential for misuse and the development of illegal narcotics.

In summary, sunlight is a critical environmental factor for the growth, flowering, and fructification of opium poppies, influencing the development of their capsules and seeds.

Energy comes and goes through various beings, in different shapes and forms in order to find its purpose and place in the world.

Sometimes in form of a digital red rose on a special day.

Pay attention to the signs of life. Acceptance is always more pro-life than resistance.

Embrace your journey. Be friendly to the beings you encounter on it. Respect and love those who go the journey with you. It is meant to be like it. Accept your plan for your journey and do not forget to use your free will.

A SHIP THAT SAILS THE SEAS by akahawkeyefan

44 24

Lone Pine, Ca.

I really cannot define the association, but my mind went immediately to the lyrics below from Simon & Garfunkel:

"American Tune"

Many's the time I've been mistaken, and many times confused

Yes and I've often felt forsaken, and certainly misused

Ah but I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm just weary thru my bones

Still you don't expect to be bright and bon-vivant

So far away from home, so far away from home

And I don't know a soul who's not been battered

I don't have a friend who feels at ease

I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to its knees

But it's alright, it's alright, for we live so well, so long

Still, when I think of the road we're traveling on

I wonder what's gone wrong, I can't help it I wonder what's gone wrong

And I dreamed I was dying, I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly

And looking back down at me, smiled reassuringly

And I dreamed I was flying, and high up above my eyes could clearly see

The statue of liberty, sailing away to sea, and I dreamed I was flying

But we come on a ship they called Mayflower

We come on a ship that sailed the moon

We come in the ages' most uncertain hours and sing an American tune

And it's alright, oh it's alright, it's alright, you can be forever blessed

Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day and I'm trying to get some rest

That's all I'm trying, to get some rest

For those who are unfamiliar with this truly great American Tune,

Donjons and Dragons by Karol

290 54

The word dungeon comes from French donjon (also spelled dongeon), which means "keep", the main tower of a castle. The first recorded instance of the word in English was near the beginning of the 14th century when it held the same meaning as donjon. The proper original meaning of "keep" is still in use for academics, although in popular culture it has been largely misused and come to mean a cell or "oubliette". Though it is uncertain, both dungeon and donjon are thought to derive from the Middle Latin word dominio, meaning "lord" or "master".

In French, the term donjon still refers to a "keep", and the English term "dungeon" refers mostly to oubliette in French. Donjon is therefore a false friend to dungeon (although the game Dungeons & Dragons is titled Donjons et Dragons in its French editions).

An oubliette (same origin as the French oublier, meaning "to forget") was a form of prison cell which was accessible only from a hatch or a hole (sometimes called an angstloch) in a high ceiling. The use of "donjons" evolved over time, sometimes to include prison cells, which could explain why the meaning of "dungeon" in English evolved over time from being a prison within the tallest, most secure tower of the castle into meaning a cell, and by extension, in popular use, an oubliette or even a torture chamber.

The earliest use of oubliette in French dates back to 1374, but its earliest adoption in English is Walter Scott's Ivanhoe in 1819: "The place was utterly dark—the oubliette, as I suppose, of their accursed convent.

A dragon is a large, serpent-like legendary creature that appears in the folklore of many cultures around world. Beliefs about dragons vary drastically by region, but dragons in western cultures since the High Middle Ages have often been depicted as winged, horned, four-legged, and capable of breathing fire. Dragons in eastern cultures are usually depicted as wingless, four-legged, serpentine creatures with above-average intelligence.

The earliest attested dragons resemble giant snakes. Dragon-like creatures are first described in the mythologies of the ancient Near East and appear in ancient Mesopotamian art and literature. Stories about storm-gods slaying giant serpents occur throughout nearly all Indo-European and Near Eastern mythologies. Famous prototypical dragons include the mušḫuššu of ancient Mesopotamia, Apep in Egyptian mythology, Vṛtra in the Rigveda, the Leviathan in the Hebrew Bible, Python, Ladon, and the Lernaean Hydra in Greek mythology, Jörmungandr, Níðhöggr, and Fafnir in Norse mythology, and the dragon from Beowulf.

The popular western image of a dragon as winged, four-legged, and capable of breathing fire is an invention of the High Middle Ages based on a conflation of earlier dragons from different traditions. In western cultures, dragons are portrayed as monsters to be tamed or overcome, usually by saints or culture heroes, as in the popular legend of Saint George and the Dragon. They are often said to have ravenous appetites and to live in caves, where they hoard treasure. These dragons appear frequently in western fantasy literature, including The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien, the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling, and A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin.

The word "dragon" has also come to be applied to the Chinese lung, which are associated with good fortune and are thought to have power over rain. Dragons and their associations with rain are the source of the Chinese customs of dragon dancing and dragon boat racing. Many East Asian deities and demigods have dragons as their personal mounts or companions. Dragons were also identified with the Emperor of China, who, during later Chinese imperial history, was the only one permitted to have dragons on his house, clothing, or personal articles.

Many's the time I've been mistaken

Yes, and I've often felt forsaken

Still, you don't expect to be

And I don't know a soul who's not been battered

I don't have a friend who feels at ease

I don't know a dream that's not been shattered

but it's all right, it's all right

Still, when I think of the

road we're traveling on

I wonder what's gone wrong

I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong

And I dreamed I was dying

I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly

And looking back down at me

Smiled reassuringly

And I dreamed I was flying

And high up above my eyes could clearly see

The Statue of Liberty

Sailing away to sea

And I dreamed I was crying

We come on the ship they call the Mayflower

We come on the ship that sailed the moon

We come in the age's most uncertain hours

and sing an American tune

Oh, and it's alright, it's all right, it's all right

You can't be forever blessed

Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day

And I'm trying to get some rest

That's all I'm trying to get some rest
