“My journey has been very free. I’ve been able to work in different parts of the world and on projects that don’t necessarily obey a typical journey of a person that wants to be famous or work in film. I want young actors to know you don’t have to follow a set line to have a career. Sometimes the line is drawn for actors from the English language. But in my case I can reinvent myself all the time.” — Gael García Bernal (Total Film, 07/2021)

“No, she’s a little bit shorter than you,” Tony chuckled, opening another portal into a wooded area, and there was indeed a light rain falling. The Faelian, of course, offered the Queen his arm.

She laid her large paw on his arm, while he statement puzzled her she was too enraptured by the light rain fall to question him. Amaterasu let out a soft happy noise "The rain is so pretty."

A poem by Agha Shahid Ali

Even the Rain

What will suffice for a true-love knot? Even the rain? But he has bought grief’s lottery, bought even the rain. “our glosses / wanting in this world” “Can you remember?” Anyone! “when we thought / the poets taught” even the rain? After we died—That was it!—God left us in the dark. And as we forgot the dark, we forgot even the rain. Drought was over. Where was I? Drinks were on the house. For mixers, my love, you’d poured—what?—even the rain. Of this pear-shaped orange’s perfumed twist, I will say: Extract Vermouth from the bergamot, even the rain. How did the Enemy love you—with earth? air? and fire? He held just one thing back till he got even: the rain. This is God’s site for a new house of executions? You swear by the Bible, Despot, even the rain? After the bones—those flowers—this was found in the urn: The lost river, ashes from the ghat, even the rain. What was I to prophesy if not the end of the world? A salt pillar for the lonely lot, even the rain. How the air raged, desperate, streaming the earth with flames— to help burn down my house, Fire sought even the rain. He would raze the mountains, he would level the waves, he would, to smooth his epic plot, even the rain. New York belongs at daybreak to only me, just me— to make this claim Memory’s brought even the rain. They’ve found the knife that killed you, but whose prints are these? No one has such small hands, Shahid, not even the rain.

Agha Shahid Ali (1949-2001)

Comments by the poet: At a personal level the rain brings so much memory back to me, especially of some very important love relationships I have had.

You mentioned going to see Ed's concert have you been yet? and if yes how was it?

Yes, I went on Thursday 😁

It was good. His stage was cool and I liked seeing Maisie too. I didn't know a few of the songs he played cos I haven't really listened to his new album, but I really enjoyed it overall.

favorite hobby when I'm driving is to catch someone trying to climb up my back bumper while I'm going a completely reasonable speed and just slowly take my foot off the gas. you seem upset, brother. why don't we slow down and enjoy the view awhile

Slugsign is a language of many uses

I was asked what my Arti's pups look like, and here is the answer: cute little fluffy guys with the same general body-shape as their mama. I imagine the greener one likes to stay closer to Arti, while the blue one loves getting small prey or interesting items on its own and showing off how capable it is!
