day 19 - auroraboros / ouroborealis

i don't have any lore for this one it's pretty self explanatory.

honestly why does no one ever talk about how utterly insane aurora borealis is????? there's literally just magic shifting colorful lights in the sky sometimes in some places. why is this not a focal point of tons of pop culture media? we act like that's just normal, nobody speaks about it with utter awe, it's just a thing that exists to us.

not that i mind that it isn't a massive focal point of pop culture. my own little slice of underappreciated wonder.

i recently realized i didn't even know what causes aurora borealis. i could not possibly even fathom it. it may as well have literally been magic to me. i rarely get something like that anymore. some amazing phenomenon, the origins of which i could never imagine. that whimsy, the magic of the unknown, is a scarcity these days as we learn more and more about the world. no stone unturned, no event unexplained.

about a week later i learned what it was.

i'm going to spare you from that information. you may look it up if you so wish. or you may continue to live in wonder.

i think this is the beginning of my obsession with aurora borealis.

i'd love to see it some day.

Nobody hasn't asked a question about this but how is Bonsai Kabuki still alive? Was he hiding for the whole entire time?

We indeed intended for him to have panicked and chosen to hide the entire time. He has the advantage of actually reasonably being able to disguise himself as another item (the bonsai plant of course) unlike the other guests. We characterised him as someone who would use that to just try to survice and avoid this adversity - and obviously come back out when it was over.

Thanks for your question!

Annoyed that Ouroborealis is taken already. No original thoughts left in the world

The noises people make are not the same as in our youth | and yet the noises are made by the same species of nail and tooth | can we understand the meanings in the change before they become too diffuse | and if we hear can we then see the noisy paths before they become too obtuse

The paths that are made by human hand will always lead to a place with no ground we fully understand | and so the paths are then woven into webs, strand by strand by strand, until they become so thick that there is no longer reason for a ground because there is no demand

Warming bodies by fires of mass burning tires in great industrial pyres | so let us retire as we breathe in their ire until the last of us expire | but before it gets dire we must become sires so that the great fires can expand their quagmires in the service of liars who claim themselves purifiers.

Limbo is calling the organ of dreaming | Organs for dreaming are in no need of machining because organs of dreaming are not machines for streaming because organs that stream and machines that dream are merely two sides of a larger scheme, breaking the episteme of organ dreaming for the regime of machine streaming

Acolytic Empires, Acolytic Economies, Catavirus

Cataltaritic Societies and those that seed them | Altars appear | the olde beliefs follow | idolatry arises, disguising a gaping hollow | that never stops spilling its contents, bitter pills to swallow | disintegrating the old pacts and the new the olde beliefs foreshadow

Hypnocrisy | Those that say they build to last want you to listen to the sounds of their ass because those that do build things to last oftentimes find their last breath coming fast
