The king and the pigeons.

Atop a tall column,
On a podium grandiose,
With a parapluie exquisite,
I look at my kingdom,

....................................
....................................

It all makes me feel
I'm still the King!

Imagine the taste - taro stems, turmeric, dried fish crushed and made into a cake. Then adding garlic, radish, tomatoes, chillies, mustard oil and salt to taste! Out of this world! #EverydayNepal

Leucas apera, called dulfi in Nepal's southern plains, treats cattle's cold and fever -- the farmers administer its juice together with mustard oil. However, in the Philippines its extract is used to treat scorpion bites! #EverydayNepal

Web search has become increasingly frustrating as interesting, original content is buried under a thick layer of AI slop, writes @ethanz.bsky.social

Chatbots and deepfakes are eroding our shared reality
With Trump et al using AI slop for political gain, fact-checking and civic journalism are more vital than ever

The golden fountain inside a courtyard in Bhaktapur Durbar Square was built by King Jitamitra Malla. The priests fetch water from this water spout to worship Goddess Taleju. The mythical creature Makara, swallowing a goat, forms the main body of the spout. #EverydayNepal

Sometimes birds and animals say words wiser than human beings. In 'Budhani', a novel 'refabulated' from a Tharu fable, the conversations between crows made me think -- are we any wiser than birds?

Read how the fable was turned into a full-fledged novel: globalvoices.org/2025/07/31/i...
