Edgar Allan Poetry -Ulalume
The leaves they were withering & sere
It was night in the lonesome October
Of my most immortal year
It was hard by the dim lake of Auber
In the misty mid region of Weir
It was down by the dank tarn of Auber
In the ghost haunted woodland of Weir art John Atkinson Grimshaw

Was riding my bike this morning when I accidentally inhaled a moth. But then I sneezed and out popped a bee. So I have questions

It's about time Strange Days finally begins getting the retrospective love and respect it deserves. To me, it's the best pre-Matrix cyberpunk film other than Blade Runner and Robocop, and still better than most cyberpunk films made since.

30 years ago, Katherine Bigelow made a sci-fi flop that changed her career for the better

Strange Days is a noir-soaked science-fiction thriller set against a backdrop of racial tension, police brutality, sexual assault, and disruptive tech

a woman in a polka dot shirt is smiling with her hand on her chest

Alt: Kristin Bell with one hand on her mouth and the other on her heart, looking overwhelmed. (She’d just been talking about how much she loves sloths.)

We're delighted to announce the arrival of a Hoffmann's two-toed sloth, born to Cocoa and Nutella on October 12. Mama and baby are resting up in the sloths' indoor area, but we promise to keep the updates coming! (vid: Celyn F.)

a man and a woman are looking at each other and the man is asking " both "

Alt: Two animated men saying: - Both? - Both? - Both. Then together - Both is good. (I don’t know what film or show they’re from.)

If I had enough power to make monkeys fly, I’d probably start by making myself immune to water. 💦🧙‍♀️🫠

The witch knows water as spirit carrier, knows it as resonator between our bodies and enfolding otherworlds. Whether gifted as puddle in lane or hollow of felled tree, scrying mirrors are everywhere. Her fluid auguries suffer no drought. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

WEDNESDAY. The day you flumpty-foo! And you think boopty- bop and zippity-zoom but the truth
is, razza frazza wuzza wooza. What I'm trying to say is, maybe your brain isn't working either, but
that's OK, because you're great. PS you need a firmware upgrade
in the form of "coffee."

If you’re okay with sharing, could you just briefly describe the painting-to-card process? (I have a project in mind but am daunted by the practicalities.) Thanks so much! 🖤
