This Dan Piraro comic always makes me cry.

When I lived in London there was a murder of crows that lived near me. I fed them often, they brought me presents (shiny rubbish and cigarette butts they found on the floor to thank me.)

When I moved, I’m certain they understood I was leaving because I had all my stuff and gave them lots of food and compliments.

But, they chased down my friend who lived in the next burrough over. They had recognised that friend with me several times and followed them to their house when they couldn’t find me.

They adopted my friend and it was now my friend’s job to bring them snacks and receive the presents.

This was maybe 6-7 years ago.

I visited London last year. Went to see my friend. The crows all not only recognised me, they tracked me down. We got into my friend’s flat and not twenty minutes later there was chaos on the balcony.

We open the curtains, the entire fucking murder is there shouting because they wanted to see me.

Crows are the very best birds.

People really do be out there asking if Finns, the blondest people on the planet, are Asians.

Francesco Nonni - Saint Sebastian - 1925

Anon asked: "If it was a woman tied to the pillar with semi naked men prodding them?" My answer: "Art depicting violence doesn't necessarily promote violence. An artist typically adapts an existing classical motif in order to gain notoriety. Since the drawing is by a man the woman with a creepy smile might be his ex or a woman he dislikes. It can be difficult to understand what an artist means without context."

“Immortality regained as the philosophers' creed echoes through millennia and the warrior’s psyche eternally rests in Elysium… At the walls of Troy, war cries resound as spears and swords clash against shields… Argonauts trek the red wine seas to expand a puissant hegemony... While nymphs still guard Promethean gnosis and whisper the Orphic oracles for the Overman's new dawn! Behold the Age of Heroes: an epoch to reminisce that the old heart beats with ancient blood!”

― Arditi, Heroic Age
