“There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for.” ⚔️
Picture of Samewise Gamgee from Lord of the Rings on top and a quote below. The quote reads: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't.They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. ~Samwise Gamgee

U.S. Capitol Crypt. The vaulted space beneath the Rotunda was called the Crypt because of its resemblance to similar areas in churches that were used for chapels and tombs.

I love this gorgeous illustrated edition of Dante’s Inferno from Beehive Books, but the foreword is especially powerful.

If it feels hard to share your art amidst current events, take a minute to read it. Poetry matters. Art matters.

There will also be singing in the dark times.

Abolish ICE
Over seven centuries after Dante's birth, a Ukrainian city is bombed, and a woman hiding in the subway station recites lines of poetry to herself and others around her. A line of poetry is a kind of invisible shield, a moment of charged silence, a bit of awe that we carry from one human body to another, that we transport by means of language. That memorable speech, however horrifying its subject matter might be, offers us a salve, offers us a way to go on. And, so today, in 2024, in the Middle East, in Sudan, in Ukraine-in our own time of crisis, we can hear the echo of Dante in his crisis of exile, as we might hear another exiled poet, Bertolt Brecht, whispering in the middle of World War Two: In the dark times will there also be singing? Yes, there will also be singing. About the dark times. Poetry doesn't matter, contemporary American culture seems to insist. But this book begs to differ. Dante and his contemporaries have long been laid in the holes in the earth, drowned in rivers, burnt inside their homes during endless wars. Their bodies have been deposited into the planet. But this book continues its journey above them. It meets us. The pilgrim walks on. Dante has no need to defend his art. He is working with a primal ancient force, one that's been here long before our individual lives and will stay long after. What we need, Dante's journey shows us, is to defend ourselves with it: a tune to walk to, even in the underworld, as long as one still walks.

If a man I loved played for the other team (not that he does, but if he did),

I would love him anyway

Just sayin

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "The Ways of Truth and Light" 24"x18" oil on linen (2025). This moody, abstract-leaning seascape painting has a textured, orange-toned, atmospheric sky with textured colors of light on the horizon. Colors from the sky reflect in the water below as it meets a dark, rocky coast.

All the chat about how #funny pigeons are reminded me of this #photo I took a while back. It's an adult gull being harassed for food by its (fairly) grown up chick. The look of forbearance on mom/dad's face is just priceless. #humour #birding #funnybirds #birdphotography #NatureLovers #photography

So when this happens, one knows things are bad, in fact, very probably far worse than they seem

I have the sense of only seeing the tip of the iceberg, if you will

Live your life in a way that doesn’t lead so many people - during one of the most significant moments of their lives - to take time to tell you to get fucked.

Billie Eilish’s hit “Wildflower” won for Song of the Year at the 2026 Grammys on Sunday — and the singer used her speech to condemn ICE and speak up for the rights of immigrants.

Before walking off stage, Eilish declared: “Fuck ICE."

There’s so much for me to think about

I have incredible compassion for everyone in difficult fallout involving mental illness, and also those suffering the illness

Huge harm all around

Lest anyone think I assume intent/villainy, I don’t

The people who know best are the people involved
