When I look at the middle picture, I think "Look everybody, nature painted a Rothko!"

Skywatcher: May the fourth be with you!

In a grainy video, you can see her, lying on her back, dress torn, legs spread, vagina exposed. Her face is burned beyond recognition and her right hand covers her eyes.

The video was shot in the early hours of Oct. 8 by a woman searching for a missing friend at the site of the rave in southern Israel where, the day before, Hamas terrorists massacred hundreds of young Israelis.

The barbarians at UW-Madison are chanting "Heil Hitler."

I haven't heard if the barbarians at UW-Seattle are chanting the same, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Also in 5/4:

Jethro Tull - Living in the Past.

@FullMoon. I read your link. As I was reading it, I recall that I have read it before. It is horrifying beyond words. It is not surprising the Hamas apologists protesting have ignored it. The escapes these people. There is no secret what needs to happen to the Hamas movement. Biden's handlers will restrain Israel because there's an election to be won.

The standing joke among the Little League crowd is that win or lose, everyone gets a trophy - Aiden, Jaden and Brayden. The comes the headline from Zero Hedge:

Biden Spends All Afternoon Awarding Medals To Other Democrats

We had another grandson born yesterday, 5/4/24. He arrived healthy, crying and so beautiful at 11:03AM. He almost immediately attached on to his mother’s (our daughter’s) breasts like he was following orders. I’ve dubbed him the “Ayatollah of the Areola”.

We give thanks to the Lord above for all his blessings.

You’ve posted several of this type of sunrise recently, Ann. They’re beautiful but also, to my eye, fierce and somewhat threatening. I think it’s a function of how red they are. I admire them but I’m not sure I like them.

"You’ve posted several of this type of sunrise recently, Ann. They’re beautiful but also, to my eye, fierce and somewhat threatening. I think it’s a function of how red they are. I admire them but I’m not sure I like them."

I'm just making a practice of getting out there and seeing what is. It's not the idea of a sunrise, but what actually happened on one particular day. I'm interested in seeing how it often challenges the mental picture of a sunrise.

Some of what is going on is within the iPhone and the Photos app. I can't (or don't know how to) control that. I think the software is optimized for taking pictures of people's faces, which I believe is about 95% of what people are doing with iPhone photography.

if China wants to interfere with 2024 Campaign and Trump NYC trial
How would this dye used in T’ang dynasty accurately predict whether a woman had intercourse or not with Trump ?

@Fullmoon @Humperdink ...this may explain why they did ... you may be interested in “Purim and My Bangladeshi Friend,”

the most astonishing entry in the Tillman archive was a semi-autobiographical essay that the law professor labeled a work of short fiction, called “Purim and My Bangladeshi Friend,” from 2013. The narrator is an Orthodox Jew who befriends a South Asian immigrant during their shared morning commute from Philadelphia to Wilmington, Delaware. In one of their daily discussions, the man wonders why Pakistanis are so haughty toward Bangladeshis like himself, even though they were both proud Muslims and his side had won the brutal civil war they’d fought in 1971. The Tillman stand-in has an explanation, but warns “you are not going to like it. I suspect that the reason some Pakistanis look down on some Bangladeshis some of the time ... is that they think Bangladeshis are ... are ... the children of raped women.” After a few minutes of silence, the Bangladeshi man admits that his friend might be right. For much of the world, the narrator continues, the rape of a subject population’s women “is just how all men they have ever known or heard about have acted. And if some men somewhere during war time did not act that way, then that means that those men were either timid or weak.”

I found this rather endearing:

I unsubscribed from a blogger's email list because she posted something I found thoughtless and absurd about the current student protests. I had been a subscriber for about seven years.

I opened my email the next day, and she had emailed me her latest blog post separately. There is no link to unsubscribe.

Ha! I admire the audacity.

“I'm just making a practice of getting out there and seeing what is.”

Good! Few people are able to see what is; they bring too many preconceptions along for the ride. I admire your artistry. I still miss the rats.

Iman, heartiest congratulations on the infant Ayatollah - may he thrive!
