I love a good pun and cheesy jokes are also nice. Words are fun to play with.

I will not boost visual elements without either #AltText or a description in the post itself, unless I have provided it in a comment.



A little reminder: You don’t free people, people free themselves

- You can only ask what you can do to facilitate and help
- You don’t know what they should be free from
- This is not about what conclusion you have on a subject, you need to remove your life path from the equation especially if its one full of a privileges
- You sure the hell don’t know what they need or should do

Don't make it about you.

A beautiful and poignant sculpture on one side of the base of an otherwise plain obelisk in the Necropolis in Glasgow. The only words on this memorial are 'Beloved Mother', and the name G. Mossman, one of the city's finest sculptors. Some determined digging by the historian Diane Burns, means we can now put a name to this particular mother: Agnes Strang.

“The grandson of the inventor of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups has lashed out at The Hershey Co., accusing the candy company of hurting the Reese’s brand by shifting to cheaper ingredients in many products.

Brad Reese, 70, said in a letter to Hershey’s corporate brand manager that for multiple Reese’s products, the company replaced milk chocolate with compound coatings and peanut butter with peanut crème.”

I was in a part of Meeker today where these coral mushrooms (I should really check for a proper identification) have sprouted in massive quantity.

This one was backed by a lovely moss field so it gets the post, though there were a lot of pretties. We have basically been in a cloud here for a week, so the fungus is just thrilled.

And right next to the fungus, a mysterious face embedded in the tree roots!

Lots of rain headed our way this week so I trotted on down to the pond to take a look at water levels. Check out the lichen covered branches on the far shore! There's a human habitat visible in the upper right corner that gives a nice perspective to the tall Douglas fir trees that grow like grass in the Pacific Northwest #MorningDogWalk #pnw #pdx

Apfelernte im Alten Land.
Apple harvest in the Altes Land region, Lower Saxony, Germany.

When sperm whales need a nap, they take a deep breath, dive down about 45 feet and arrange themselves into perfectly-level, vertical patterns. They sleep sound and still for up to two hours at a time between breaths, in pods of five or six whales, possibly for protection.

No one knew whales slept vertically until a 2008 study documented this behavior. And no one captured really good photography of it in the wild until 2017.

Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov was instrumental in deciphering Mayan script. His whole life he tried to be co-credited with his cat Asya but his editors always refused. In 2012, the Mexicans honored him with a monument that included his beloved cat.
