A Song of Springtime

Artist: John William Waterhouse (English, 1849 – 1917)

Date: 1913

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Private Collection

Location: The Pérez Simón collection, Mexico

A woman with red hair, draped in a flowing white garment, is the central figure in a lush landscape surrounded by children playing and picking flowers. The scene is tranquil, with a hint of the sea in the background and flowering trees dotting the grassy terrain. The painting in an allegorical form reflects the arrival of spring and the renewal of life that comes with it.

Having my own money is so dangerous because i just went to primark planning to spend like £30 on one full outfit (minus shoes ofc) to add to my autumn/winter wardrobe and came out buying two £20-£30 jackets, a reduced sweater, socks and a fucking £14 bag- that is like £70 for not even a single full outfit 💀

Spring Stylings

Do you think that since Rito live in The Cold Region™ they would have a tradition of sauna?

Because if you want to clean yourself and not freeze to death during an actually cold winter you either heat the water, get it preheated from hot sptings, or don't use water at all (sandbaths). Pruning can only take you so far I feel.

And I am not sure which one is better.

Oooh omg I love that - I am stealing this idea. So, obviously with real birds, depending on species they clean themselves different ways. Most birds really do just preen - birds don't sweat, so their skin doesn't usually remain moist or build up bacteria. They have a 'preening oil gland' at the base of their tail (think weird butt nipple that secretes oil - you're welcome.) Typically they coat their beak in this oil, then 'zip and unzip' their feathers by sort of scrubbing them back and forth to remove any dirt/dust/grime from the feathers - it both acts like a soap by lubricating dirt molicules and helps to insulate the feathers from water. Small birds and birds in warm climates will often dunk themselves in shalow bodies of water - although it's theorised the pratise is more about cooling themselves off. However it does provide some level of cleaning especially if feathers have become heavily soiled. However, they typically only coat their outer layer of feathers and shake themselves dry in fast intervals to avoid themselves becoming soaked. (People who own birbs will know these little bastards can't regulate their body tempretures super well so if they get soaked, they can get too cold and keel over). Then there is also sand baths - which is about using small molecules to dislodge grime. Real birds preen...pretty much constantly, and obviously Rito are rather large and have a hell of a lot more feathers than say, a sparrow. So just preening simply wouldn't be fesable unless they spent every waking hour doing it. However you're totally right, in the cold regions there would be no fesable way to submerge themselves in water - even in hot springs, because it would take them hours to dry off and they would succum to the cold, especially if Rito function like real birds and have a hard time regularing body temp. So having a sauna - particularily a dry sauna, would be sort of vital. I like imagining they bathe communally in hotsprings at certain times of the day/week and then spend an hour or two in little saunas to dry off their feathers. Birds also raise their feathers when they get too hot to try to allow heat to escape - so they'd all be sat in there all fluffed up like pompoms and have to preen themselves/oneanother after to smooth them back down and recoat them in oil. What a wonderful mental image.

I did several rounds of vacation bible school and also Sunday school when I was visiting my grandma over summer/fall/winter/spting breaks and, legitimately, the only reference in this post that I personally can identify is Jesus' crown of thorns?

Being raised by areligious jews with 0 exposure to christianity outside pop culture is so fun. One time I asked my ex-catholic friend why a picture of jesus had a bristle crown and she looked at me like I was insane. One time I heard someone mention the "lance of longinus" and responded, word for word, "Like from Evangelion?" One time during a history lesson my professor described an important monk and scholar as "Dominican" and I spent the rest of class super confused and hung up on it because I was very sure that the Dominican Republic didn't meaningfully exist as an entity back then, maybe she meant he was a native Taino or something but that's a weird way to say that and I'm pretty sure this was pre- European contact? Really fucks people up when they realize I genuinely have no idea.

It was an uncertain spring.

The weather, perpetually changing, sent clouds of blue and of purple flying over the land...

But in April such weather was to be expected.
