Moshi moshi ❤️

Enduring headwind, depleted battery, hurtful remark, broken axis, drenching rain, faltering gears, eight hour ride, zero condition, painful knee, gender dysphoria, and little sleep to boot. A nifty place called 'Mountain and Valley'. Prepped dinner twice, coated with dirt off the wheels, yucky yucky :blobcatsadreach:

A compassionate stranger - a kind smile and work-worn hands 🌸

Hey fellow netizens 😘

I've journeyed into a different accent. Naturally I received a cake, but where to put said cake? 🤔

Fletcher checkin. Transphobic reception. Good wifi reception. Thx sis! 📈

Later, nice temp receptionist. I said: "Heyyy, now it makes sense why you're so nice, cuz the other people here, pffff, I don't like 'em one bit!" She giggled empathetically 🤭

Eat cake 🎂

{Despite her “cop” reputation, #Harris has become admirably liberal on #cannabis. Unlike #Biden, she supports federal legalization and sponsored a #legalization bill as a senator. #Walz’s record is even better. As governor of Minnesota he signed that state’s legalization bill, legalized safe consumption sites and possession of drug paraphernalia and testing equipment, and authorized a task force to explore #therapeutic use of psychedelics.} #kamala 👯 #end #prohibition

Liberal Currents · To My Fellow Libertarians: It's Time to Embrace the Harris-Walz TicketLibertarians, long used to holding their noses to pick the lesser evil or abstaining entirely, now have plenty of reasons for enthusiasm.

"Corona Cut" (video)

I took a bunch of footage of the eclipse in April, and haven't really worked on film for quite a while. Needing a little creative therapy, I slapped this together tonight using the footage, trying out a basic retail movie-making app. The 50 second film is like a trailer of the eclipse corona and seems to have captured flares of activity on the sun. The "Diamond Ring" effect was also captured fairly well.

I made a couple of different camera filters that gave me some cool effects – the green was a filter, I made using welders glass. I slapped a couple filtered clips in this, just messing around, and for for effect. I may make a "real" video with some of the abstract filter footage to post later. The music is "Eleventh Earl Of Mar", from the days of Genesis, when the only "Phil-roll", was his drum roll. I remixed and rearranged a few parts of the intro to accent images and transitions.

Please, forgive the quality. Someone kept bumping and tripping on my tripod, and I had to dumb the original footage down a bit. I also beg your indulgence for my therapeutic "Fun with Editing" , using some of my old logo intros and and title pages.

Seize the day... Squeeze it.
Take the bushel from atop your lantern.
Let your inner self be illuminated for all to see.

All film, still images, graphics, and blah blah blah:

This Is Literally Your Brain on #Drugs
A small new study shows reactions in the #brain in people who were given #psilocybin in a controlled setting

Psilocybin desynchronizes the human brain [#OpenAccess] nature.com/articles/s41586-024

Findings cannot show causes of #therapeutic benefit, but "it's possible psilocybin is directly causing" brain-network changes. Or creating a #psychedelic experience that in turn causes parts of brain to behave differently.
