I love the centers of these flowers, they look like some beautiful eldritch horror spilling into our world from between purple fairy wings.

A biblically accurate fae abomination 💜

A closeup of a light purple flower, its reproductive parts jut forward from the hairy white center into brilliant dark purple tentacles that curl outward, sticky with pollen.

Barbara Jordan—a Black woman from Houston’s Fifth Ward—crossed every line drawn to keep her out: the color line, the gender line, the sexuality line, the Mason-Dixon line. And when, 49 years ago this week, the nation asked who would speak for America in crisis, she answered. With conviction. With the Constitution. And with a voice they never forgot.

Ignore this post. I need to pin my bio hashtags in a post because the bio links frustratingly break out of the advanced web view in this Mastodon build and they're my shortcut way of browsing posts. Hoping they fix this in a later build.

A southern masked weaver bird hangs precariously in the nest he is building. The distinctive, spherical structure will have a downward-facing entrance, meticulously woven by the male from grass and reeds to attract a mate.

“@OnlyFjords: Is It a Joke? And Will It Last?”
#ThePhantomsThoughts article: https://thepfromtheo.vivaldi.net/2025/07/14/onlyfjords-is-it-a-joke-and-will-it-last/

“This saying caught my attention:

You deserve something different. Something untouched by urgency.

The answer isn’t no content.

It’s the right content.”

“Now, I like this, but why only fjords, Vivaldi? This question came in my mind soon after watching the video. But Vivaldi was ready for that:

Because they’re stunning. But also because we believe the internet should be just as majestic, not stripped down to whatever keeps people doom scrolling the longest.”

“[…] it’s only fjords.

🙂

So yeah, that’s the point. I don’t have any fjord photo, and this means… that I can only come from time to time and see what people posted there? It looks like that.”

I have posted a few fogbows previously featuring the Cradle Mountain too. This one is more minimalist with only a tree and some layers.

mountain scenery with some layers and fog and reflecting in a lake. a single tree in the middle with a fogbow hitting the tree with its end and curving to the right. Morning warm light painting distant peaks and starting to paint the closer areas too.

Shot from the car with the iPhone. Mountains just before Tejon Ranch along I5.

First one has AI magic (from Lightroom) removing the pipes & a preset added. Second one more basic edits and no AI removal.

This photo’s saying nothing, is black and white, opaque.
A frozen moment, not a memory.
The boyfriend with the Pentax took it for the sake
Of taking it…

Photograph, Art Student, Female, Working Class
Liz Lochhead

Her hair is cut into that perfect slant –
An innovation circa ‘64 by Vidal Sassoon.
She’s wearing C&A’s best effort at Quant
Ending just below the knicker-line, daisy-strewn.
Keeping herself in tights could blow her grant
Entirely, so each precious pair is soon
Spattered with nail varnish dots that stop each run.
She’s a girl, eighteen – just wants to have fun.

She’s not ‘a chick’. Not yet. Besides, by then
She’ll find the term ‘offensive’. ‘Dollybird’ to quote
Her favourite mags, is what she aspires to when
Her head’s still full of Honey and Petticoat.
It’s almost the last year that, quite this blithely, men
Up ladders or on building sites wolf-whistle to note
The approval they’re sure she will appreciate.
Why not? She did it for their benefit, looks great.

Nor does she object. Wouldn’t think she has the right.
Though when that lech of a lecturer comments on her tits
To a male classmate, openly, she might
Feel – quick as a run in nylon – that it’s
Not what ought to happen, is not polite,
She’ll burn, but smile, have no word that fits
The insult, can’t subject it to language’s prism.
In sixty-six there’s plenty sex, but not ‘sexism’.

ALT

Soon: The Female Eunuch and enough
Will be enough. Thanks to newfound feminism and Greer,
Women’ll have the words for all this stuff,
What already rankles, but confuses her, will seem clear
And she’ll (consciously) be no one’s ‘bit of fluff’
Or ‘skirt’ or ‘crumpet’. She’ll know the rule is ‘gay’ not ‘queer’,
‘Ms’ not ‘Miss’ or ‘Mrs’ – she’ll happily obey it
And, sure as the Pill in her pocket, that’s how she’ll say it.

This photo’s saying nothing, is black and white, opaque.
A frozen moment, not a memory.
The boyfriend with the Pentax took it for the sake
Of taking it, a shot among many others, randomly,
To see how it would develop. Didn’t imagine it’d make
An image so typical it’d capture time so perfectly.
How does she feel? Hey, girl, did it feel strange
To be waiting for the a-changing times to change?

On August 21, 194 years ago in less than a month, Nat Turner led a revolt. Dozens died. But what haunted white Southerners wasn’t the blood—it was the intention. The reading. The prophecy. The belief that enslaved people could think, lead, and judge.
