forced caretaking as a trope i think is like cocaine to people who know they need to be taken care of but have mental blocks in the way like yeah please do gently force me into a state of vulnerability so my body learns it is a safe thing to feel around you

This has gotta be a hit with the girlies who have always wanted something terrible to happen to them just so people realize they're in more misery than their outward appearance lets on

Still life WIP, found this little lady deceased about... two years ago now? Finally got around to painting her. Getting close but still want to work a few things before I'm done.

+ set photos because I was an Adelie penguin in my past life and want to show off my pebbles (collected off FS and BLM land)

Flowers in the crannied wall

Does anybody have the vaguest idea what these guys are? (Image shot on the bridge over the River Slaney in Baltinglass. There are a LOT more like this growing on the south side of the wall. ...Forgive me for not investigating the north side of the wall, as I had no desire to wind up in the river. Even if it's very clean, as you can tell by the herons fishing in it. And the trout, who look very happy with the environment.)

One common name for the pink-flowered one is Climbing Sailor, which I like, and always stop to look at, because it usually makes a little poem with other things around it. (“Forget me not, Climbing Sailor!” Is a message I love spotting.) the Climbing Sailor usually clambers vertically across walls, but often encounters other characters to make a message with.

Here, you have caught the slightly more baffling message from the universe of, “Climbing Sailor, Maidenhair Spleenwort,” which is difficult to interpret as poem or prophecy, but certainly remains some kind of writing prompt.

The spleenwort is the teeny fern like thing.

I found some of that last fall! Another common name is Ivy-leaved Toadflax. The latin name is Cymbalaria muralis. Climbing sailor is definitely the prettier option.

Every time you catch yourself going, "Fuck, are humans just inherently evil and naturally inclined to selfishness and harm???" you HAVE to remember that that's literally a core ideal of Christianity.

So if it feels inescapable and like evidence of it is everywhere, whether at times or always, that might just because you're in a Western country where you're surrounded by Christians who believe that, fundamentally, in their worldview. And also they talk and make art about it all the time and run the vast majority of news outlets. And spent over a thousand years burning any art or texts that disagreed with them. Etc. etc.

If you're gonna come to as drastic and painful a conclusion as that, at least take the time first to make sure you're not working with biased evidence (surrounded by too many people and cultural products that believe original sin is real)

And if it turns out the feeling WAS partly the result of cultural Christianity, then hey, that's great news, because it means there's that much (and it really is SO MUCH) less evidence that humans inherently suck. Which is good, because we don't
