I love poppy season!
The poppies in the images are not opium poppies.
But as a symbol, they are an important part of medical history.
They are flowers of liberation from pain and suffering.

Associations and Symbols of Dionysos
I have attempted to write one of the most comprehensive articles on the symbols and associations of Dionysos. It is my hope that this will be a reference guide for future generations.

Dionysos: The Civic God
Dionysos, often misunderstood as chaotic, was crucial for civic cohesion, trade, and cultural development in antiquity. In this essay, I examine his role as a Civic God.

Trump has imposed 10% tariffs on all Australia, but for some reason increased the tariffs on the Australian-owned island of Norfolk to 29%, an island with 2000 pop. and little exports.
The US has also imposed tariffs on Antarctic islands solely inhabited by penguins... 🐧🐧🐧

Something I dislike in the political environment in Australia is the adoption of Trumpism rhetoric of calling each other “weak”.
This is ableist and offensive, as it implies that a physically disabled person is incapable of being a leader. Enforcing stereotypes. This should be called out.

I just watched a 30min video on "Broicism" (Bro-Stoicism).
Anyway, this video was advocating for semen retention, apparently not letting "go" results in enlightenment.
That might explain why caged gays are pretending to be Buddha.
Seriously, this stuff is rooted is misogyny, it's disturbing.

Australia has banned teens from social media, Queensland (Australia) has introduced "adult crime, adult time" laws. This means children as young as 10 y.o. punished as adults.
The idea that a teenager is banned from social media, but can be sent to an adult prison is antithetical and unethical.
