This region is also home to Kidepo Valley National Park, a vast wilderness that serves as a crucial part of the Karamojong’s ancestral lands and a key area for their pastoralist way of life.

Went out shopping with mum and bought myself a pot of Variegated String of Pearls (Curio rowleyanus) or better known by its synonym Senecio rowleyanus. This creeping succulent vine is native to the Cape Provinces of South Africa. Also called string of beads, it comes in both green and variegated colours. The latter had pearl-like leaves that are swirled in cream, green and sometimes even pink and purple colours with the right combination of sun stress and water.

So there's this TikTok filter called "Name As A Flag." It's basically what you expect to try this filter.
So yesterday I just saw one guy making a Skibidi Toilet flag on TikTok and this made me an idea: What if all 9 Pokémon regions had their own flags? That's what I did last night, and here's all the flags I keyboarded:

"No need to collect a mass of facts. We have just considered societies which are ignorant: the first, of our conception of fate; the second, of our conception of birth; the third, of our conception of exchange; the last, of our conception of death. That's enough.
"Between the men we have just mentioned, and the Greek, or the Gothic man—or anybody else—and ourselves, what is there in common?"
Lowering his lizard-skin eyelids slightly, [Möllberg] paused for a moment, to give more weight to what he was going to say:
"Whether we are talking of God in the religious civilizations, or the link with the cosmos in the preceding civilizations, every mental structure considers as absolute and unassailable any particular sign which directs life, and without which man could neither think nor act. (A sign which does not necessarily guarantee a better life for man, which can equally well, of course, contribute to his destruction!) It is to man what the aquarium is to the fish swimming inside it. It does not enter his mind. It has nothing to do with the search for truth. It seizes and possesses man, while he never possesses it entirely. So much so, in fact—and now I come back to Mr. Vincent Berger's argument—that men are, perhaps, more thoroughly defined and classified by their form of fatalism than by anything else."
"Which is ours?" my father asked.
"it's not easy for a fish to see its own aquarium. . . . First and foremost, one's country, don't yo think?"
Walter raised his hand with the same conductor's gesture as before and said with a kind of bitterness:
"There is a truth, gentlemen, to which we do in fact submit, in the same way as those kinds who appear on the fringe, if I may say so, of the most distant past used to submit to the stars . . . without which neither the idea of country, nor that of race, nor that of social distinction, would be what it is. We live in it, as the religious civilizations lived in God. Without it, not one of us—I merely say: 'not one'—would be able to think. It's our only realm: it's history."
"And behind history," Möllberg went on, "perhaps there's something which is to history what history is to the country, to revolution. Perhaps our consciousness of time—"
from The Walnut Trees of Altenburg, André Malraux, tr. A. W. Fielding
#pearl diver#this is like... a so so book with one extremely good scene#an anthropologist coming home from Africa- so thoroughly shaken by the range of different possible human societies which until Africa he+#+had never before considered that he loses all faith in his life's work and his field of study- in Europe as a project#so he comes home and starts a fight among a society of preening pseudointellectuals who are decades behind the times- a fight+#+over what man is *fundamentally*#all as set up for the carnage of WWI. with WWII overlaid on the whole novel#Malraux really had something here. like he really had a fucking book. just needed a little more work
