@royalblood1.bsky.social listened to Edward Chen sing the song from Your Name Engraved Within took me back to the film and his moving performance and his beauty.

Portuguese. Sobremundo. It names a subtle human truth: that experiences do not end when they end. They leave behind a secondary world - quieter, thinner, but real - where memory echoes without demanding attention. Not the event. Not the aftermath. But the world that exists because it happened.

"Everyone to whom I have said goodbye, by which I mean the eternal adios; wanted more time, even in the wracked &destroyed bodies in which they were experiencing it. I want more time. I need more time. Time is the gift. Seek it. Give it. Cherish it. Prolong it."Tennessee Williams with James Grissom

Bought a cake w/ orange syrup & whipped cream. Certain 1st partner would’ve made soak w/ Curaçao & orange zest to cake and/or whipped cream. Liqueur in whipped cream as well. Jim spoiled me for ordinary things. I sometimes simplified recipes for kids, never for adults. Food is always love.

Overcompensation for a youth with no Queer cinema or TV series so I now binge watch Asian shows. Today I mused over the common cliché in these works that one lead pursues relentlessly whilst the other is indifferent or clueless until.......BOOM! Love at long last. Grin.

There was an inexpensive Brut Champagne with the shrimp scampi I put together for supper last evening.  Would that I'd someone to share it with.  Everything was grand but for company.

@royalblood1.bsky.social Edward Chen, lead in Your Name Engraved Herein. I'm not really a 'rice queen' but have always found Asian men attractive.

Found this and had to share because it is funny and somewhat sadly...........true.

Just came across one of my favorite poems in Spanish. A bit sad and so I reflected on it. .......hay algo que besa los ojos
y que seca, llorando, las lágrimas. Through the fine acacias. Doesn't take much to bring on a tear or two.

#Ukraine #Putin #BabaYaga Pretty sure it will be a fearful scene when Баба Яга wreaks revenge on Vladimir Putin and his minions. A sight not for the faint of heart.

@royalblood1.bsky.social Watching an unserious, lightweight Korean series, "The Master's Sun". Not recommending but the Cute as Fuck, Seo In-Guk is a main character & it struck me just now that incredible looks can be a kind of wound. If a potential lover cannot see past pretty, it could be sad.

Borrowed from elsewhere because it hit me that this is a compelling truth. Amen to this!
