Plant of the Day

Wednesday 5 June 2024

Visiting a local farm I saw this wonderful double flowered form of Papaver orientale (oriental poppy, eastern poppy) in the front garden. This perennial poppy is covered with beautiful silvery hairs and will become naturalised in grassy embankments.

I really hope that the lotr fandom will soon move on from discussions about Rop's legitimacy as a Tolkien adaptation.

The current climate of people either fully dismissing the whole show or declaring it a full-on masterpiece needs to stop. I (for the most part) enjoy watching the show and therefore find myself more often than not on the side of the latter. But, I really wish we could have more productive discussions about the actual content of the show other than just how well it lines up with the lore, including calling out some major issues that I haven’t seen discussed at all.

In all the discussions about orc families, short vs. long-haired elves, ring mechanics, etc, It's definitely noticeable that nobody (neither fans nor antis) seem to have called out the super racist orientalist elements in the Rhun storyline.

#some real criticism that isn't just about the lore #I can't be the only one who is deeply uncomfortable with the fact that the only people from Rhun we've seen sofar (except the Stoors)#are evil and played by white actors in vaguely middle eastern garb in vaguely middle eastern buildings accompanied by a “oriental” score #and the masked mercenaries who both work for the dark villain and are disfigured 😬#I really hope the show manages to pull of some sort of complexity or nuance with the Rhun plot #but they have definitely not set themselves up for success with this one #the rings of power #the rings of power s2 #trop #rings of power #lotr fandom

*bangs head on the table repeatedly* Why. Do. The. Brothers. And. Sisters. Of. Christ. Love. To. Hate. Each. Other. So. Much.

You're Christian. I'm Christian. They're Christian. We all believe Jesus is God. We all believe God is love. Why all the hate?? So what if they believe Mary was assumed into heaven and you don't? So what if you believe Mary was ever a virgin and you don't?

There are lots of things we disagree on. But you know what? We agree on so much more!

We believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us humans and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.

We believe in one, holy, universal and apostolic Church. We confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and we look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

We are all Christians for we are all anointed by the Anointed One, the Son of the Living God.

Cyrav base WIP

He is still missing his jaw membranes, the inside of his lower jaw (with a long teethed tongue), whiskers, horned theropod-like prominent eyebrows and deer-dog ears :)

He is a dragon-angel. Not the dutch angel dragon subspecies. A literal "Heaven born dragon".
