i hate it when i cant even write a poem about something because its too obvious. like in the airbnb i was at i guess it used to be a kids room cause you could see the imprint of one little glow in the dark star that had been missed and painted over in landlord white. like that's a poem already what's the point

Ants are so crazy as animals, imagine fighting behemoths that are dozens or hundreds or millions of times your size and hauling massive cargo with just your jaws and joining your sisters on the battlefield in massive intercolony wars and. What the fuck

I had this pondering of them recently.

So, I was sitting there, thoughts drifting to ants, like why do ants think they’re just taking a stroll on my arm when they’re actually on some massive creature? Do they even notice, or is it like, “Whoa, what was that wind?”

Then my brain decided to wander to their wars. Yeah, ants have wars. Just like us. Because, you know, why not add more chaos to the universe? Wars, huh? What kicks them off? Is it just some ego trip, or is there a political game plan behind it? Do ants just tag along out of loyalty, or are they stuck with no other option? Maybe some folks think it’s all pointless and just shake their heads. Peace would’ve been nice, but here we are, dealing with nonsense.

Then that had me thinking about politics. Monarchy, politics, debates on gender rights—do ants have all that too? Are some ants all about the queen, while others are like, “Nah, her policies suck”? Do they have ant activists fighting for their rights?

And then, naturally, my mind went to religion. Do ants have a church? An ant temple? Maybe they just chill with the universe, like cosmic hippies. Or maybe they gather under the moonlight for tiny ant rituals, circling a crumb like it’s of spiritual importance. Maybe they believe in a bunch of leaf spirits or a single mighty Queen of All Queens, or even think every twig and drop of dew has a soul.

Just some random musings, I guess. You could call it philosophical thinking, I don’t know.

Viking dresses by Savelyeva Ekaterina

Another visual demonstration that historical clothing wasn’t dingy and monochrome.

All of these colours can be obtained from vegetable dyes, producing different shades depending on what mordant (colour fixative - alum, different metal filings, different vinegars) was used. See here and here for examples.

Not clothes, but this was a palette developed by the National Museum of Denmark based on paint residue from archaeological finds for the purpose of painting a reconstructed hall.

Apparently, they can tell from the chemical composition that the colours wouldn’t be mixed with black or white to mute them, but be used in their brightest form. Bright yellow and red was achieved with expensive dyes (orpiment and cinnabar) and was thus fashionable. (Source in Danish)

There is a Babylonian tablet with an inscription complaining about a man's crops dying, and it is funny af.

I am not getting water for my sesame field, the sesame will die. Don't tell me later "you did not write to me", the sesame is visibly dying. Ibbi-llabrat saw it, that sesame will die and I have warned you.
