a front-facing selfie of a small creature that looks identical to a red panda (though to an untrained eye one could mistake them for a pomeranian with red panda coloring). the fluffball is backlit by sunlight, and there is a tree with yellow leaves in the background.

We only rate dogs. This is very clearly a red panda. We've had just about enough of your tomfoolery. Please only send dogs. Thank you… 12/10 (IG: __joyjoa)

Thank you for the insight! A fascinating story, and tragedy. It's no wonder that generations of people have looked to it.

Such a tragic day. I wonder sometimes about how hard it is to see at the time when something is wrong, like this. And then, sometimes I wonder what we're missing now, today, similarly. History's got many facets to learn from and should be valued more. Thank you for your knowledge that you share.

Nice! For me, some pictures, like yours, come along and it's as if I see myself - and the now, and also really see how the then, the ancient times, still survive with us, subtle, but eloquently.
aurgh... probably way too many words. Maybe I need more coffee.
Great pic, thanks.

Beautiful view and love the juxtaposed bridge and standing stones!

Love the sentiment. I feel less alone reading it because I'm the same way, and people think I'm being sarcastic when I say it's a nice rain today, or that I love a nice gray wet day.

Omg. Beautiful Aquamarine!!

Ewww!

#OTD September 17, 1692 the Court of Oyer & Terminer held its last witchcraft trials in Salem & adjourned. With over a hundred people still in jails awaiting trial, the judges must have assumed another session would take place in October, but the Court of Oyer and Terminer would never meet again.

A great day.

I loved all that CC stuff. Was raised in military family, mom’s family was in Mass, we would visit when in the states. Luckily I had a special aunt who lived in Sagamore. Visited her on my own occasionally for 50 years after age 15 or so.
Nauset is beautiful! I think their water is much warmer too

Oops! Yes, it’s on cape cod!

Your pens are beautiful. Best wishes...

It is long. And not generally packed with people. No rides, no boardwalk. Fast food is not convenient-but not too hard to get to either, just not close by. Sagamore beach is quiet in the winter (which I like) but slowly growing and becoming a place people commute to Boston from. Lucky them!

Your work is beautiful. Such a pleasure to gaze into it and enjoy.

A man in a black leather jacket is seen from the side, drawing in a sketchbook with a pencil. The drawing depicts a bridge with its central span raised. In the background, an actual bridge of similar design can be seen, partially obscured by trees. Next to the man, a yellow diamond-shaped road sign reads "DRAW BRIDGE AHEAD". The scene is set on a clear day with a blue sky.

Love it! Gave me a big good smile....very much appreciated

#OTD September 15, 1692, Stephen Johnson confirmed his pact with Satan, as well as his love for French fashion: "he was to have of the Devil for his Service...a pair of French fall Shoes"

Wow…. Gotta hand it to a dude for being upfront about liking something special in footwear.

The image is an illustration from "The Wanderer," a wordless picture book by Peter Van den Ende. It depicts a small paper boat navigating a vast, textured ocean under a starry night sky illuminated by the Northern Lights The illustration is monochrome.

Goodnight. May all our dreams be magical journeys that gently lead us to Monday.

Sandy empty beach with small rocks where the waves hit the sand, on a cold winters day, looking out to the horizon.

Heres one of mine, a beach in Massachusetts where even on the hottest summer days, the water was still very cold -and worth it to go in and come out bright pink.
It was still winter when this was taken. Such a beautiful place. I liked winter especially. The cold wind, the warmth of a thick coat.

Oh but it is beautiful, and I see in those photos a place where the world one loves survives -and goes on living.

A beauty too of a place that remains recognizable.

It's most heartening, your photos, your place.

Beautiful!
