[ TXT from @mnstcrbnll SIRIO ]

GREETINGS STARDUST, AND WELCOME TO SECRETS FROM THE STARS! I hope you're ready to do your best and find out who your secret belongs to. Remember to follow the rules, and be ready to gain as many points as possible! The rules are well explained on the blog ☆

YOUR SECRET IS:

- I have had done something naughty in the break room or my place of work

GOOD LUCK! SIRIO GALASSIA ☆

Face puckering as she reads the text, she starts to voice her thoughts out loud to nobody in particular. "Wow. Too much information. But also too vague!! But, you gotta admire anyone who has the balls to confess something like that on reality TV!"

Let's think logically. It wouldn't be any of the kids—Ree, Willow & Anzu are off the cards.

She's pretty sure that Riley dude doesn't have a job so that means no place to get naughty in. Strelitzia, Grusha, Volkner and Moylayne all have gyms that could have break rooms in but they all seem too private or reserved to talk about their sex lives so openly.

Same with Rika, her twitter is so dead. Way too corporate. She probably wouldn't want the attention confessing this would bring.

Then Sada… well she is kinda wild, sure, and she's married to another professor. Maybe they'd have done something freaky in the lab but what kinda self respecting pokémon professor announces parts of their sex life to the public like this? Don't they all work with kids?

The last five, she's not so sure about.

The woman called Mable is a scientist, or something? So not as high profile as the league members, so she might feel a little more able to talk about her sexual encounters. But something tells her she's not the type, she can't imagine that secret coming out of Mable's mouth.

A freak like Proton would totally gloat about something like this on TV, would probably be cackling like a frickin' gastly when he heard Sirio give her his secret.

That Francis seems like a real weirdo too, like, yeah, she's pretty high energy herself but that girl is too much. Definitely seems like the type to overshare. Burto too, that's a mans-man if ever she saw one. He's probably bragging about all the sex he's having on a daily basis.

But she doesn't feel certain about any of them. Treating public sex like it's something that makes a scandalous confession…

There's a horrible, queasy feeling in the pit of her stomach. There's one player that definitely has a workplace to have been naughty in. Someone who Silver has told her can be a little impulsive. Someone who was scandalized when Sirio and Etna poked fun at his secret.

"Oh my god. This is so—is it Mr. Looker?!"

Like Flowers - BATMM One-Shot

People are like flowers. They were planted and they grow. Insects would flock to them, influencing their growth in so many ways: pollinating them, sucking their nectar out, eating away their leaves, and taking away their sugar as they grow older. It’s hard staying alive knowing there are so many insects like that, but Grammy Rosetta’s plants, they’re lucky for she is there to drive away the insects that wish to take advantage of them. She wished someone had done the same for her. 

“Hello my dear, Rosaline,” Grammy whispered, getting the watering can nearby and showering the bush of roses with a healthy amount of water. “What a lovely day, is it not?” 

Grammy reached out to check a flower from the bush, but she quickly retreated back with a hiss. She looked at her tire and there was a small drop of blood emerging from the grey color. She sighed and turned to the garden bush. “I see you are not in the mood to talk today, Rosaline. Another time.”

People are like flowers. Some are like roses. Their beauty is magnificent and they stand out in many events like birthdays, valentines day, anniversaries, and so much more. But as they are popular, they can also hurt. The thorns on them could scratch and make one bleed, but that was only to protect the beauty that is above them. To protect themselves from the crawling predators below that wish to take advantage of their beauty. Grammy understands that, and even though she gets hurt, she doesn’t cut the thorns. They are a part of the flower and like it, they are beautiful.

Another time, Grammy went to water the sunflowers. But she stopped when she saw a beautiful stalk outstretching towards the sun while a bee buzzed around the center. She smiled and walked away, planning to return after she watered the other plants. 

People are like flowers. Some are like sunflowers. They reach for the sky whenever shines on them, grabbing the chance that the world has given for nutrients. And when they do that, they bloom like no other, attracting fellow friends that might help them in the long run. Friends like the bees who give as much as they take. Grammy wishes she could meet more people like that, sunflowers who bloom so beautifully when given a chance. 

She checked the calendar one morning and she hummed. She made a small smile, getting up to go fetch a fresh batch of flowers from her garden to make them into something beautiful. A basket and ribbons are what she took next and to crafting she goes, snipping the stems and leaves where they needed to be snipped and twisting what needed to be twisted, picking out the petals that needed to be picked.

People are like flowers. They were planted into the soil, into the Earth, to grow into beautiful masterpieces made to be adored, despised, loved, hates, nourished, and trampled. They grow, they bloom, and then… They wilt. 

Grammy goes into the cemetery with a basket full of flowers, a soft smile on her face as she turned an aisle around the corner to a gravestone made of common sandstone and limestone. On it engraved, “Guiseppe Vero, Marzo 23 1938 - Giugno 17 1999.” Grammy set the basket down and leaned to caress the words below his name. “I was born a child. I shall die one as well.”

“Oh, Guiseppe….” Grammy Rosetta got the flowers of primrose and slowly sprinkled them around the grave. It was a tradition she does ever since the first year her husband left her. Primrose. It meant youth, grace, and youthful love. Everything her husband was. Even when he was old and worn and his body began to fail him, he smiled like a little boy, smiling like the man Grammy always knew. Guiseppe knew what he was and stayed like that, never did he falter. His soul always stays young. “I miss you,” Grammy said, kneeling in front of the grave and smiling at the grave.

It was a beautiful day here in Burto. The sky was clear and the sun softly shining for the flowers to bloom around and the wind was magnificently gentle. 

People are like flowers. The were planted, then they grow. They bloom and then they wilt. But that doesn’t mean that the world has to darken. A beauty was found, and then it was lost. That is how life works. The important part of it all is how we nourished the plant and let it enjoy the beautiful rays and never let it be deprived of water. We took care of it as much as we could and cherished it as much as possible until it can finally rest, burrowed deep under the soil again. 

People are like flowers. And Grammy will make sure she cherishes the flowers she has now.

[bartholomaus]

Să vă uitați la toate clipurile sau articolele în care românii se mândresc cu Neamul și Patria. Toți se laudă cu :

-Cercetători

-Oameni de Cultură, Artiști

-Sportivi

-Natură

-Monumente

Aceste domenii, Cercetare (plus Educație), Cultură, Sport sunt cele mai subfinanțate domenii din România. Cele mai! De mai bine de 30 de ani. Deși sunt cei mai valoroși ”ambasadori” ai unei țări.

Ne mai mândrim cu Natura, cu biodiversitatea și cu Patrimoniul Cultural și Istoric.

Tot ce înseamnă politici de Mediu și protejarea Patrimoniului Istoric și Natural sunt pe ultimul loc la politicile românilor. Cele mai mari realizări din aceste domenii aparțin inițiativelor private și ONGurilor

VEdeți acest clip din 2018, făcut pe fonduri grele publice, buget de Centenar, în plină dictatură pesedistă. Lingușeală naționalistă cu bani de la Firea, de la TVR, de la Guvern! Supremul kitsch. Oameni de cultură, sportivi, artiști, natură, monumente... Multă dronă, imagini cu Catedrala Mântuirii, mulți țărani, Zamfir, Furdui Iancu, draco dacic, sfinxul din Bucegi, un dac burtos, un Ferdinand dubios.... Zici că e un festival legionar cu mult sclipici ceaușist. Sau ceva cântec religios de pocăiți, din ăla gen folk...

Cred că e regizat de Gabi Firea.

Bineînțeles la pesedei a plăcut, asta era și ideea.

Monday News & Notes from FutureTrack

I love this time of year. There’s eventing underway in the US; the British Eventing season kicked off over the weekend despite rain and even snow making life a touch tricky for folks around the country; we’re starting to see entry lists fill up for the early-season four-stars; Badminton and Kentucky are racing closer (a fact that makes my stomach feel like it’s going to explode with butterflies, which I hope isn’t just a sign that actually, I’m in my thirties now and maybe I’ve developed a GI issue as a result); and everything’s full-steam ahead for the Olympics. Everything is still yet to happen – the stories are yet to unfold, and the possibilities are truly endless. And alongside all of the above? All our favourite events are well into their 2024 planning and building. Germany’s Luhmühlen CCI5* and CCI4*-S is a longtime EN fave, and today, they released their first look at what Mike Etherington-Smith has got up his sleeve for this year’s courses. Join him, friend of EN Juliane Barth, and a whole bunch of heavy machinery out on course and see how the stage will be set for one of the biggest showdowns pre-Paris. It’s going to be a remarkable week of sport.

National Holiday: It’s National Grammar Day. Mind you’re words and contractions.

Your Monday Reading List:

If you’re a committed entry list stalker, you might have noticed something interesting on the Montelibretti 3* line-up for this week. That something interesting is an entry from Australia’s Chris Burton, who left eventing in 2021 to focus on showjumping. Now, it appears, he’s back – and with an exciting new partner in Shadow Man, the former 5* mount of Britain’s Ben Hobday. Here’s how they’re getting on so far, and confirmation that yes, Burto has had the horse since before the cut-off date for Olympic ownership to be secured.

Speaking of folks getting the bug again, that’s exactly what happened to dentist Dr Jesse Akers Reagin. Her hiatus was a touch longer – 18 years, in fact! – but after attending a baby shower in 2019 at the farm of Katie Malensek, Canada’s high-flying vet-turned-team-member, she felt that spark reignite and knew it was well worth trying to get horses back into her life. And now? Well, she’s doing pretty darn well herself.

Okay, we know eventing prize money ain’t all that. But how does it actually compare to the pots across the disciplines? Horse & Hound dived into the numbers, and it turns out that while we’re definitely not leading the charge, we’re also not at the bottom of the heap. It makes for some interesting reading, and has certainly reignited my spark for working out the hows and the whys. Here’s what they found.

One of the best ways to ensure everyone is well-represented in sport is to make sure that everyone who has something to contribute is given a voice and a platform. That’s why I’m really pleased to see that US Eventing is now offering complimentary digital memberships to USEA affiliates – including members of volunteering programs and regional eventing associations. The former actually got this benefit last year, and the addition of the latter should give more of a platform for those regional programs to be able to highlight the challenges and benefits of hosting the sport in various parts of the country. Find out more information here and remember: a governing body is the sum of all its subsidiary voices, opinions, and pushes for change. Make sure yours is heard.

Morning Viewing: 

Every year at Badminton, I’m once again struck by just how fun — and challenging! — the BE90 and BE100 Voltaire Design Grassroots Championship looks. It truly is the creme-de-la-creme of lower-level competition, and takes an enormous amount of planning, prep, and dedication to get to. I’ll never get a chance to try it for myself – I suspect it’ll be many decades yet that I’ll be deeply entrenched in reporting on Badminton itself! – so I’ll be living vicariously through those riders who are blogging and vlogging the whole experience, from their early-season runs and training to the week itself. Here’s one to get you started, that lays bear just how tricky it can be to get everything moving in the right direction. Come on, Donut – we’re rooting for you!

Old - BATMM One-shot

Old.

How could you say that one is old? 

When they complain because their back bones are beginning to become stiff and frail? When their teeth start to fall off and they need to get dentures? When wrinkles start to form on their faces and you would be greeted with a genuine smile? When they could tell stories from their younger years and the lessons they have learned as if they were sharing an old story?

How could you say one is old? 

For Rosetta Vero, more commonly known as “Crusher’s Grammy”, ‘old’ is just a word that does not define a person in terms of their capabilities. ‘Old’ is just a word described in the dictionary that something or someone who has lived a long life. ‘Old’ is a word meant to describe people like her, who have grown out of their phase in beauty and into what this world calls ‘mature’, but to her, ‘old’ is just a word. It cannot touch her. It cannot speak to her. It cannot hurt her.

She thought so as she swings back and forth on the swings of a playground in the middle of the beautiful afternoon in the playground of her lovely town. People would stop and wave at her and she would wave back with her kind and genteel smile. Some would look at their kids and they would wonder, “why is Grammy still on the swing? She’s old!”

“Now, don’t be rude,” the parent would say as they would drag their child along with them to wherever destination they ought to be. 

Grammy Rosetta didn’t mind. What the child said is true: she is old. She didn’t mind the title and she would sing on her merry way. 

One day, a small girl would approach her. She asked, “Grammy, why are you still on the swing? You’re old!”

Grammy just smiled at the little girl. She patted her head and said, “I am old, Cara. My body has grown old. But growing old doesn’t mean I have grown up! I am still a child in heart.” Grammy stood up and made some space for the girl to take the swing. “Cara, would you like to sit? I could push you while you swing.”

“Oh, yes, please!” 

The girl put her little body on the swing and Grammy moved behind her to push her lightly. The girl let out a small giggle as she was lifted off from the ground and into the beautiful sky of Burto. “Higher!” She cried.

Grammy laughed and pushed the girl higher, earning more giggles and cheerful laughs from the girl. 

Grammy could remember when she would giggle and laugh like how this girl would. Just flying in the swings and reaching for the skies as if nothing else mattered. Through all the struggle, all the complications, and all the heartbreaks, she missed this simplicity that only childhood could bring. When everything was just soft clouds and colorful rainbows. She was older now, and she couldn’t see the world the same as she was a child but she could still see it as a place to appreciate for there are still people here worth being happy for.

Like this child.

“What’s your name, Cara?”

“I’m Aida!”

Aida. What a suitable name for such a happy child
