Denmark became a constitutional monarchy by the signing of a new constitution on June 5, 1849.   

Constitution Day

Constitution Day in Denmark is observed on June 5 to commemorate the day that marked the signing of the Danish Constitution along with its four revised editions occurring on the same date. Since the closest thing Danes have to a national day is Constitution Day, it is honored in the full spirit of patriotism. June 5 marked the birth of Danish democracy and is celebrated annually with secular services, speeches by local politicians, the raising of the national flag, and church congregations, to name a few events happening throughout the country.  

History of Constitution Day

Constitution Day is a very special day for Denmark. After spending decades in an absolute monarchy, from 1660 to 1849, the first constitution was signed by King Frederick VII in 1849, which finally declared Denmark a constitutional monarchy — a system allowing room to exercise power within a prescribed legal framework only.

The constitution was revised for the first time in 1866 and then, after the women’s suffrage movement in 1915 when women were allowed to vote, the 1849 constitution went through another revision. A third revision took place in 1920 followed by the final version, signed in 1953, which is still followed without further updates. Since there is no process of amendment, the entire document of the constitution has to be updated at every new addition or extraction of the clauses.

Interestingly, almost all updates of the constitution have occurred on June 5, which adds more significance to the date. The most recent edition, after eliminating the Upper Chamber, has created a unicameral parliament. From permitting women to inherit the throne to decreasing the percentage of votes by women necessary to change the constitution (from 45% down to 40%), June 5 is one of the most important days to celebrate in Denmark.

Not entirely an official public holiday, shops and businesses are shut down after midday and workers get a half-day off. Political organizations and associations meet for secular services, the Dannebrog is hoisted in the sky, and the general public spends the day in collective merriment.

Golden Throne of Tutankhamun

New Kingdom, late 18th Dynasty, reign of Tutankhamun, ca. 1332-1323 BC. 

The luxurious armchair is distinguished by the complexity of its technique and an abundance of details. Two projecting lions’ heads protect the seat of the throne while the arms take the form of winged uraei or rearing cobras wearing the double Pschent crown of Egypt and guarding the cartouche names of the king.

The golden throne of Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922 by the British archeologist Howard Carter. It was found beneath a hippopotamus funerary bed in the antechamber of the Tomb of Tutankhamun.

The throne is called (Ist) in Egyptian hieroglyphs after the name of the mother goddess Isis. who was usually depicted bearing a throne on her head as her characteristic emblem. It is made of wood and covered with gold and silver. It is ornamented with semi-precious stones and colored glass.

The throne meant, not only the link between the worlds of Gods and the people, but also majesty, stability, safety and balance. Since kings were considered Gods on earth, it may not be difficult to imagine Tutankhamun imposing his divine will over the rest of mortals while sitting on this golden throne.

Wood, gold leaf, silver, semi-precious stones, glass paste,

Trans!Regulus Au in which Sirius often sneaked out with Regulus to show him the stars (pre Regulus coming out).

On one of those nights, Sirius and R* are lying on their backs and look up at the sky filled with stars as they always do. Sirius laughs as he just found the Lupin constellation for the first time. "It's moony!" He says and grins to himself. R* has long forgotten the stars in favour of watching at his brother. Sirius started to grow out his hair. Soon it will reach shoulder length, just as R*'s hair. He doesn't understand, if R* could, he would cut his hair off without a second thought. He looks back up, his mouth opening and closing again and again, as he contemplates how to phrase his next words. How could he describe this lingering feeling deep inside of his chest, to his big brother?

"I think..." It came out broken, but it caught the attention of Sirius, as R* could see his brother's head turn in the corner of his eyes. His own eyes are focused on the stars in the sky. "I'm a boy." it bursts out of him. A secret he had carried in his shoulders for over a year now. He immediately bites down on his lip, afraid to say anything else.

Sirius is silent. R* doesn't dare to shift his eyes from the stars to glance at his brother. This isn't how people describe it. There's no invisible load taken off his shoulders. If anything, there seems to be more pressing down on him, hindering him to breath. R* can feel himself spiral. If not even Sirius excepts him, who will?

"I never told you this, but..." Sirius starts. His voice is calm, his eyes fixed on the night sky again. R* glances over at his brother. A small smile was playing on the older boy's lips. "I always loved Regulus way more than the star our parents named you after. It's the heart of the lion, just like Sirius is the heart of the dog. The lion may not be as cool and awesome as the dog-" Sirius laughs at this part, but instantly turns serious again "-but he is a very, very brave animal. Just like you, brother." Sirius turns his head again to catch R*'s eyes.

This time R* answers the stare as a grin, that mirrors the one on Sirius' face, tucks at his lips. "Regulus." He tests out the sound. The way the letters roll from his tongue. "Yeah, I like that." Regulus looks back up to the stars and when he finds the lion constellation, he feels like the Regulus star ist burning brighter than normally.

And that's how the one person who always was just like a parent to him (way more than his biological ones), gave Regulus his name.

The 'Golden Throne' of Tutankhamun

The luxurious armchair is distinguished by the complexity of its technique and an abundance of details.

Its colors have not faded over three thousand years, which serves as a testament to the high skill of the ancient Egyptian craftsmen.

The royal throne is made of wood, covered with gold and silver. It is ornamented with semi-precious stones and colored glass.

Two projecting lions’ heads protect the seat of the throne while the arms take the form of winged uraei or rearing cobras wearing the double crown of Egypt and guarding the cartouche names of the king.

The throne is called (Ist) in Egyptian hieroglyphs after the name of the mother goddess Isis, who was usually depicted bearing a throne on her head as her characteristic emblem.

The golden throne was discovered in 1922 by the British archaeologist Howard Carter (1874-1939).

It was found beneath a hippopotamus funerary bed in the antechamber of the Tomb of Tutankhamun (1341-1323 BC), New Kingdom, late 18th Dynasty; Valley of the Kings, Luxor, Egypt.

The throne was meant not only the link between the worlds of Gods and the people, but also majesty, stability, safety, and balance.

Since kings were considered Gods on earth, it may not be difficult to imagine Tutankhamun imposing his divine will over the rest of mortals while sitting on this golden throne.

On the back of the throne, it depicts Queen Ankhesenamun holds a salve-cup and spreads perfumed oil on her husband’s collar in a typical Amarna style scene; sun disc Aten shines above royal couple.

At the time it was made, their names were Tutankhaten and Ankhespaaten.

The scene shows one of the most famous and intimate scenes in art history: the young king appears sitting and being regaled with an ointment by his wife Ankhesenamun.

The king wears a composite crown and a broad collar, while the queen wears a diadem.

The bodies and wigs of both of them are inlaid with exquisite colored glass and their linen robes are silver.

More Texan Lannisters because I have brain rot:

-Joffrey goes hunting once and becomes obsessed with it. He carries deer hooves around in his backpack and taps out rhythms on his desk at school.

-Myrcella always has her hair curled and done up with those huge clip on bows.

-Myrcella catches anoles for Tommen because he isn't fast enough to grab them himself.

-All three children have ATVs and drive them around Casterly Rock without helmets. Joffrey once ran a hiker off of a canyon trail and never told anyone.

-The Casterly Rock dining room has a huge dining table. The center piece is a taxidermied lion. Everyone pretends to like it, and Tommen is terrified of it.

-Cersei calls every woman she meets honey.

-Tyrion is a centrist and Cersei sends him boomery MAGA memes from FB and calls him a woke-ist.

-Cersei hosts slumber parties for Myrcella's cheer team at the Rock, and personally disinvites several little girls because she doesn't think they're pretty enough to be friends with Myrcella.

-Cersei posts bikini selfies on Twitter, she is almost always holding a rifle.

-When Jaime starts dating Brienne, she and Cersei passive aggressively regift each other the same set of unopened scented candles for every holiday and birthday.

Namibia, Botswana, Simbabwe 2024/25 -Tag 16

Herrschaften und Oukies!!!

Nachdem wir uns bei einem ausgiebigen Frühstück, morgens um 7 Uhr, gut für den Tag gerüstet fühlen, starten wir heute eine morgendliche, gebuchte Pirschfahrt in den Bwabwata Nationalpark.

Der Bwabwata Nationalpark wurde 2007 gegründet und umfasst eine Fläche von 6.274 qkm in der westlichen Caprivi-Region.

Mittels Boot wurden wir zu unserem Geländefahrzeug am anderen Ufer gebracht. Das ist der kürzeste Weg, andernfalls müsste man die Gäste ganz außen herum fahren, um in den Park zu kommen. Dabei würde mehr Zeit für die An-und Abfahrt drauf gehen, als für die Pirschfahrt selbst.

Dabei konnten wir schon jede Menge Lechwe Antilopen (Moorantilopen) beobachten.

Man merkt, es hat in den letzten Tagen doch ganz gut geregnet. Die Wege, über die unser Fahrer uns kutschiert sind ordentlich schlammig.

Kaum mit den Geländefahrzeugen losgefahren, entdeckten wir auf einer Knüppelbrücke einen Wasserwaran, der auf der Lauer liegt. Nur ungern verlässt er wegen uns seinen schönen Aussichtsposten.

Wir machten einen Halt bei Kameldornbäumen, bei denen die Rinde von Elefanten abgefressen war. Unser Guide erklärte uns, dass die Elefanten sehr gerne die Rinde und die Früchte der Kameldornbäume fressen. Ist die Rinde weg, stirbt der Baum wegen unterbrochener Wasserzufuhr ab.

Da die Elefanten auch die Früchte fressen, die nur an- bzw. unverdaut wieder ausgeschieden werden, können an neuer Stelle wieder neue Kameldornbäume wachsen. Die Natur hat für alles eine Lösung!

Wir legten eine Picknick-Pause an der Horseshoe Flussbiegung ein. Es gab Softdrinks und Snacks. Von Elefanten jedoch weit und breit keine Spur.

Weiter ging unsere Pirschfahrt. Wir konnten doch etliche Tiere sehen: Zebras, Giraffen, Impalas, Warzenschweine, viele verschiedene Vögel und Kudus.

Natürlich erzählte auch hier der Guide den uralten Gag mit dem riesen Bart über die "Lions MacDonalds" (Impalas).

Die Moorantilopen bleiben gerne in Wassernähe. Ihre Hufe sind den schlammigen Gegebenheiten angepasst, damit sie nicht bzw. kaum im Boden einsinken.

Wir sehen Hippos, die von uns aufgescheucht werden, und Elefanten- und Hippo Highways… Aber keine Elefanten und keine Büffel weit und breit.

An einer Stelle entdecken wir eine größere Ansammlung unterschiedlicher Geier. Eigentlich immer ein untrügliches Zeichen für einen Kill, doch auch davon weit und breit keine Spur.

Es ist wie verhext. Am Himmel kreist dann doch etwas (für uns) Spektakuläres: ein Bateleur (Gaukler) Adler. Gut, wir waren begeistert, unsere schweizer Mitfahrer eher nur so mittelprächtig.

Die Warzenschweinfamilie mit ihren zwei umhertollenden kleinen Babies war da doch eher schon nach ihrem Geschmack.

Mit einer kurzen Bootsfahrt geht es mittags wieder zurück zur Lodge. 

Wir sind auf dem Kwando, einem Nebenfluss des Sambesi, unterwegs.

Er entspringt in Angola und ist ca. 1.500 km lang. Er trägt vier unterschiedliche Namen. In Angola heißt er Cuando, in Botswana, Sambia und Namibia Kwando, im Unterlauf wird er Linyanti und zuletzt schließlich Chobe genannt. Da soll erst mal einer durchblicken. Der Kwando mündet dann in den Sambesi.

Während unserer kurzen Bootsfahrt konnten wir wieder viele verschiedene Vögel, z.B. Webervögel, Bienenfresser, Eisvögel, Kormorane, Reiher sehen.

Links und rechts des Ufers gab’s die uns schon wohl bekannten Hippo Highways, die sich durch den allgegenwärtigen Papyrus mäandern.

Krokodile gab es natürlich auch hin und wieder, aber dieses Mal entweder auch schnell wieder verschwunden oder es waren nur die Augen zu sehe.

Direkt vor der Lodge waren Angelfreunde unterwegs und versuchten ihr Glück. Kurz bevor wir am Steg wieder anlegten, kam große Aufregung auf. Der Mann auf dem Oberdeck hatte etwas an der Leine - und zwar etwas großes. Ein Krokodil vielleicht?

Oder doch meinen verlorenen Hut? Nein, es war ein 12 Kilogramm schwerer Wels! Alle Gäste oben auf der Aussichtsterrasse und auf unserem Boot applaudierten dem glücklichen Fischer, der den ganzen Tag und Abend stolz noch Glückwünsche entgegen nahm.

Am Nachmittag sollte uns eigentlich unserer Weg ins nahegelegene Namushasha Heritage Center.

Leider machte uns da das Wetter einen dicken Strick durch die Rechnung: es schüttete wie aus Kübeln. Nicht nur den ganzen Nachmittag, sondern auch den ganzen Abend hindurch.

Am Nachmittag versuchte sogar eine Familie Meerkatzen (Vervet Monkeys) in unserer Villa Zuflucht zu finden. Glücklicherweise waren alle Türen verriegelt und die Affen bekamen die Tür nicht geöffnet.

Buffet und Gäste mussten vor den Wassermassen geschützt werden. Due Temperatur fiel auf gerade einmal 20 Grad und alle zogen sich lange Hosen und dicke Jacken an.

Die Baumhörnchen, gegenüber des Restaurants, waren auch nicht besonders happy über das nasse Wetter. Sie putzten sich unaufhörlich ihr nasses Fell.

Nach dem Abendessen sind wir wieder direkt auf unser Zimmer, denn wir müssen schon wieder packen. Morgen wechseln wir erneut die Location.

Auf dem Rückweg zu unserer Villa kreuzte eine Eule unseren Weg. Micha konnte geistesgegenwärtig sein Handy zücken und damit den Beweis liefern.

Lekker Slaap!

Angie, Micha, Mama und der Hasenbär

Es tut mir leid euch nochmal zu stören eure Majestät..

Aber ich habe etwas vergessen. Ich hab vergessen mein liebes Haustier zu vorzustellen. *deute auf ein kleinen schüchternen löwenbaby* Das ist mein Haustier Simba. Ungefähr noch so klein wie Valentino. Simba ist voll nett. Und schüchternd wie ihr sehen könnt.. er liebt außerdem es zu knuddeln und er liebt es wenn ihn jemand sein Lieblingsessen serviert. Er isst nähmlich Larven…

So ich wollte auch nicht lange stören. Ich wünsche euch ein schönen Abend noch.

@tollpatschige-asha2024

Oh! OH! OH DEAR! A lion cub .... is this really a lion cub I'm seeing?

Oh! OH! MEINE GÜTE! Ein Löwenjunges ... ist das tatsächlich ein Löwenjunges das ich da sehe?

It is, mi amor. Don't freak out. Just hear what she has to say first.

Ja ist es, mi amor. Nicht ausflippen! Hör dir erstmal an, was sie zu sagen hat.

*leans in and mumbles* A lion! Mo chroí! We have venomous snakes, scorpions and spiders, owls and bugs and things and now a LION? My kingdom is turning into a zoo!

Ein Löwe, mein Herz! Wir haben Giftschlangen, Skorpione und Spinnen, Eulen und Käfer und sowas und jetzt ein Löwe?? Mein Königreich wird zu einem Zoo!

*chuckles* Don't be ridiculous. It's just a baby lion.

Sei nicht albern. Es ist doch nur ein Löwenbaby.

It will grow, and then what?

Es wird wachsen. Und dann was?

Listen to it's owner, darling.

Hör einfach der Besitzerin zu, Schatz.

Yes ... *clears throat* Hello, dear ... so ... Simba it is, yes? All baby animals are cute and sweet ... and then they grow. What will you do once that cub is grown? Such an animal needs lots of space and .... lots of food. Even if tamed. A lion isn't a mere housecat.

Ja ... Hallo, meine Liebe ... also ... Simba war es, ja? Alle Babytiere sind am Anfang süß und niedlich ... und dann werden sie groß. Was willst du machen, wenn dieses Junges ausgewachsen ist? So ein Tier brauch sehr viel Platz ... und sehr viel Essen. Ein Löwe ist keine einfache Hauskatze.

King Akim does have tigers doesn't he?

König Akim hat doch Tiger, oder?

*groan* Yes, honey. Exactly. I told you he wanted to give me a monkey last time we saw each other ... he's .... a little ... *clears throat*

Ja, Liebling. Genau das. Ich habe dir doch erzählt, dass er mir das letzte mal, als wir uns sahen, einen Affen geben wollte. Er ist ein bisschen ... *räuspert sich*

Crazy?

Verrückt?

A little bit ... and that was the summer before I ... that thing with the book happened ...

Ein wenig ... und das war der Sommer bevor ich ... diese Sache mit dem Buch passiert ist ...

*caresses his arm* Well, if Akim can keep tigers, she surely can keep a lion. And he eats larvae.

*streichelt seinen Arm* Tja, wenn Akim Tiger halten kann, dann kann sie bestimmt einen Löwen halten. Und er frisst Larven.

Yet he does. Soon he'll need much more than that ... Anyway.

Noch. Bald wird er viel mehr als das brauchen. Wie auch immer ...

*whispers* Do you also think she somehow looks a lot like Asha?

Findest du auch, dass sie Asha irgendwie sehr ähnlich sieht?

*turns to his wife slightly to whisper back* You think that too? Maybe it's her cousin and she never said a thing?

Du denkst das auch? Vielleicht ist das ihre Kusine und sie hat uns nichts gesagt?

We can ask her later. Now ... I really want to pet this baby lion now! *comes down the podium* Hello, cutie! May I pet your lion cub? Yes? Awww you're such a cutie!!! Who's a good lion? Hmm? You are a good lion! Yes you are!!!

Wir können sie später fragen. Jetzt aber ... will ich diesen Babylöwen streicheln! Hallo du Süßer! Darf ich dein Löwenjunges streicheln? Ja? Ooooohh du bist so ein Süßer! Wer ist ein guter Löwe? Du bist ein guter Löwe! Ja das bist du!

*watches his wife fondle the baby lion* ❤️ .... *very much in love sigh*

I ask myself what it means to be one of the Dark Angels. Is it to hunt the Fallen, chasing shadows through the dark places of the galaxy? Is it to pursue our quest at any expense, forgoing all other oaths and duties? Is it to lie, to hide and to plot so that others will never know of our shame? Is it to keep our own brethren unacquainted with the truth of our past, the legacy we all share in? Or ist it to be a Space Marine? Is it to follow the path laid down by the Emperor and Lion El'Johnson at the founding of this great Imperium of man? To protect mankind, to purge the alien, cleanse the unclean?
