They who live in history only seemed to walk the earth again'

A very tiny bright orange baby salamander. It is extraordinarily cute, lying happily on moss.

We saw our first little red eft of the year today. If you see one please do not pick it up! Their skin is highly porous and the salt, oils, lotion, sunblock, bug spray, etc. from your hands can make them sick. Use a leaf to move them if they must be relocated for their safety. ❤️

Incredibly funny to watch the right wing going Oh so just because I love money and hate poor people I'm a bad Christian according to "the pope"???

Painting. A setting sun, a castle in the distance. A man on horseback looks down from a bank near a body of water. Various fairies are sleeping in the boughs of the trees, gathered around the water's edge, and flying in the sky in the distance.

'And pleasant is the fairy land,
But, an eerie tale to tell,
Ay at the end of seven years,
We pay a tiend to hell'
~'Tam Lin', Scottish Ballad

Goodnight.

Be a terror in the deep.
Be a cosmic horror slumbering in a star, worshipped by millions from afar.

This is perhaps the most deranged thing I've ever seen a major, respected news organization do:

Lie about the AMA's position on gender-affirming care, and when the AMA issues a statement correcting it, the NYT accuses the *AMA* of lying about *their own position*

“I call Hecate of the Crossroads, worshipped at the meeting of three paths, oh lovely one.
In the sky, earth, and sea, you are venerated in your saffron-coloured robes.”
