I sense no sorrow here, besides the human sorrow that I bring with me. The trees eat my breath as I speak. My words are mere compost to these beings.

I like the piece, but have you considered that animism as a term used in this way (regression)comes from the idea that animism is primitive (blackness) as opposed to western monotheistic civilisation (whiteness)? With the result that fx indigenous ecological knowledge is disqualified?

The rise of overt racism in the era of climate crisis is no coincidence Text: Sonja Pietiläinen Climate policy debates have traditionally emphasized humanity’s collective responsibility for climate change. Yet while the effects of climate change are transboundary and glo...

The Death of Domitian The thing about tyrants, autocrats, power-mad demagogues and political bullies is that, in the end, someone will always come for you.

Here, in all its finger-shredding, eye-gouging, blood-soaked, assassin-screaming, enraged-emperor glory, is the final day of the emperor Domitian!

No terrified slave boys were terrified in the making of this terror

4000 year old yew tree here in Wiltshire!
So old it’s held together by a concrete block (not the best solution I’m sure).
And the ghost of someone peeking around this tree has been spotted. 👻🌲😊

There is a lot of false hope and stupid optimism in the garden these days. Yes, the sun is up, but it's not warm enough for anything to taste good, even if it's "ripe". Couldn't these plants have done this in June or July, when everything was perfect?

Two elongated wooden figurines with white stone eyes stand upright on a boat carved with a serpent-shaped head, displayed against a dark background.

The Roos Carr figures are dating to the Late Bronze Age or Early Iron Age. They were inadvertently unearthed by laborers during ditch maintenance at Roos Carr in 1836.

Given Reality: embodiment, the other-than-human, our animality.
Invented Reality: Nations, money, etc.

Det skal vel egentlig ikke gå an å få modne moreller ute ved kysten av Finnmark. Begynner å bli modne, men de er sikkert sure.

Det ble en fin tur I dag også her i Torhop. Nydelig vær med 16° og vindstille. En reinsdyrbukk poserte villig mens hundene bjeffet som gale. Fra Urravárri ser man langt utover #Tanafjorden og ut mot Barentshavet.

Fantastic news! A Nightjar was ringed at @LaneMarsh last night, just a stone’s throw from Birmingham Airport ✈️. That makes 6 in 4 years, all juveniles, highlighting a clear migration route for these elusive birds 🌙🪶. #Nightjar #BirdMigration

Picasso and Gilot rescued an injured owl that became part of the household, inspiring many artworks. In her memoir, Gilot recalled the owl: "He smelled awful and ate nothing but mice". She enjoyed exchanges between artist & owl; it bit his fingers & he retaliated with 'biting' insults #OwlishMonday
