Picked up a couple new followers recently and I’m pretty sure only one of you is a bot. Hello! So here’s an obligatory list of links: @mothwicker -- my reblog blog. Full of cool art and stuff, definitely worth the follow, imo @illuminaryart -- my ‘professional art blog’ in which I’m actually posting art! @slagharrow -- GW2 blog

http://doggereldesigns.threadless.com  -- my dumb t-shirt shop #art -- art tag, probably what most of y’all are here for #gw2  -- for Guild Wars 2 #politics i guess -- tagged mostly so y’all can blacklist it if you’re not here for my unpopular political opinions. I’m really bad at tagging so it’s hit and miss, sorry. I am always down for thoughtful conversation on any of these things, whether you agree or not.

fucking australia’s trying to get everyone to link their government id to their social media accounts else you cant use them anymore, the actual fuck is wrong with this country

please, actually, get fucking mad over this, the entirety of australia basically just banned all social media for anyone who doesnt want to give up their privacy to the government, there was no vote on this, no nothing, they just went ahead and fucking passed this ridiculously privy law and barely anybody’s talking about it the actual fuck

okay so to actually explain what exactly is happening, it’s an age thing. theyve used ‘protect the children’ and ‘let kids be kids’ as a weapon again. anyone under 16 is banned from social media, but to enforce this they have openly admitted everyone will need to link their government id to their social media. this whole ‘protect the kids’ thing was a very obvious trojan horse for getting ppl to give up their privacy.

and yknow, that alone is a very shitty law even without the whole surrendering your private information to the government thing.

theyve made outside uninhabitable, there’s nowhere left to go. public areas have degenerated, theyve turned hanging out into a crime with loitering, streets feel unwalkable sometimes, parents are more wary of letting their kids walk around on their own than they used to be, and now theyre trying to ban one of the main ways kids manage to distract themselves inside the house.

when i was 15 i was depressed and lonely, unable to leave the house very far, no friends, nobody. the one place that helped me feel less alone was online communities. i wouldve killed myself if it werent for the support i recieved on there. and now theyre trying to ban that for future generations, in a world that hates them being both outside and inside.

and even still, this is still a fucking trojan horse to get you to give up your privacy.

Whenever you see "think of the children" it's always bad.

This is just one of the reasons I get so frustrated when people think doing it for porn sites is a good thing. Because it never stops at JUST one thing.

The correct answer, as always, was to hold parents responsible for actually parenting their children, not to give the government even more power to control people's access to information.

Leave it to the Land Down Under to get things upside-down.

BEFORE YOU CLICK A LINK!

Reblog this post :) Especially if you’re on mobile, you’ll lose the post if you click the link without thinking. Take a note from your elders before you

Interesting note: It definitely uses whoever you're following now, not at that date. Even the 2020 one includes a lot of people I was absolutely not following yet in Feb 2020, which is actually kind of cool, I can see what they were reblogging from this fandom before I got into it.

Binti Sunle/Listen to My Prayer (Hindi song)

A Hindi song released a few days ago from Filadelfia Music. Instrumentation includes harmonium, dholak drum, and acoustic guitar.

Two earlier versions by Aradhna are lower in this blog post.

English translation below the first video.

Auto -translation of lyrics:

O dear Jesus, listen to my prayer (2) Stay with me, O lord Now please save my honour Prabhuji [Lord], please save my honour

I request you with folded hands Now listen to my request I am hoping for you Show me your darshan* today Now save my honour

I want to be called your martyr I hope to see you I will sing your praises for ages My Garib Nawaz** Now you save my honour

You are the star of my eyes The darling of my heart You are my savior You are my king Now you save my honor

* "Darshan" is a holy vision ** "Garib Nawaz" is an Arabic phrase that translates to "Benefactor of the Poor".

+++

The song was composed by Peter John of Gurgaon.

Filadelfia Music, Rajastha (I think), India https://www.facebook.com/filadelfiamusicinternational/

"Filadelfia Music exists to help you worship God in Spirit and in truth. An arm of the Filadelfia Fellowship Church of India, Filadelfia Music produces Hindi gospel music and Hindi Christian worship songs for the glory of God. Filadelfia Music believes that songs help you to worship but worship is more than songs or music, it is a 24/7 lifestyle and so is not to be limited to any space or stage. It is written, "Whatever you do, do all for the glory of God" (1 Cor 10:31). As we do this it becomes our worship, and the sound of heaven resounds in our homes and our streets."

in 2004, my friends Chris Hale (sitar and vocals) and Pete Hicks (guitar and vocacls), of the band Aradhna, released this 8-minute version of the song on their terrific "Satsang" album:

In this 5-min video, Aradhna plays Binti Sunle in Varanasi on September 4, 2010.

I have a 1gal aquarium (6" cube) that I'm looking at retiring and turning into a carnivorous terrarium, likely focusing on drosera species. It'll go on my drawing desk, near the window that gets the only sunlight in the whole house. I'm doing my research now and working out what cultivars to get. But.... I'm also thinking I could make a terrarium for some crippled cranefly as well. Tall, narrow vase that's made to resemble a forest floor.... Musing, musing. They're one of my favorite plants.

Voting machines are preventing you from selecting Donald Trump as president... I'm trying to bring as much awareness as possible to the illegal activity that's occurring. 🤔

Sympathies from Mexico, where once the "system fell" and suddenly the winner was the candidate who was losing before the "little hiccup". Hope you guys fare better and get elections as fair as possible

Ooh, backberry, bamble jam

Ooh, blackberry, scramble them

Finally made an iNat account and now gonna make use of all the animal and plant pictures that I took in India. Since coming back to the States, I've deeply regretted how few photos I took of my friends and people there, but maybe this will help give the other pictures more of a purpose. I get too focused on my interests sometimes and let the present pass away without notice. Bitter lessons learned, though I'm glad I captured the natural beauty of the place. Always heartsick for home.

This buttery, chamomile tea-scented loaf is a sweet pop symphony, the Abba of cakes. A pot of flowery, just-brewed chamomile isn’t required for drinking with slices of this tender loaf but is strongly recommended. In life and in food, you always need balance: A sip or two of the grassy, herbal tea between bites of this cake counters the sweetness, as do freeze-dried strawberries, which lend tartness and a naturally pink hue to the lemony glaze. This everyday loaf will keep on the counter for 3 to 4 days; be sure the cut side is always well wrapped.
Ingredients Yield: One 9-inch loaf ½ cup/115 grams unsalted butter 2 tablespoons/6 grams chamomile tea (from 4 to 6 tea bags), crushed fine if coarse 1 cup/240 milliliters whole milk Nonstick cooking spray 1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt 2 large eggs 1 large lemon 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1½ cups/192 grams all-purpose flour 1 cup/124 grams confectioners’ sugar ½ cup/8 grams freeze-dried strawberries
Preparation Step 1 In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon chamomile to a large mixing bowl. Pour the hot melted butter over the chamomile and stir. Set aside to steep and cool completely, about 1 hour. Step 2 Use the same saucepan (without washing it out) to bring the milk to a simmer over medium-high heat, keeping watch so it doesn’t boil over. Remove from the heat, and stir the remaining 1 tablespoon chamomile into the hot milk. Set aside to steep and cool completely, about 1 hour. Step 3 Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with the nonstick cooking spray and line with parchment paper so the long sides of the pan have a couple of inches of overhang to make lifting the finished cake out easier. Step 4 Add the sugar and salt to the bowl with the butter, and whisk until smooth and thick, about 1 minute. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, vigorously whisking to combine after each addition. Zest the lemon into the bowl; add the baking powder and vanilla, and whisk until incorporated. Add the flour and stream in the milk mixture while whisking continuously until no streaks of flour remain. Step 5 Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until a skewer or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean (a few crumbs are OK, but you should see no wet batter), 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack for 30 minutes. Step 6 While the cake cools, make the icing: Into a medium bowl, squeeze 2 tablespoons juice from the zested lemon, then add the confectioners’ sugar. Place the dehydrated strawberries in a fine-mesh sieve set over the bowl and, using your fingers, crush the brittle berries and press the red-pink powder through the sieve and into the sugar. (The more you do this, the redder your icing will be.) Whisk until smooth. Step 7 If needed, run a knife along the edges of the cake to release it from the pan. Holding the 2 sides of overhanging parchment, lift the cake out and place it on a plate, cake stand or cutting board. Discard the parchment. Pour the icing over the cake, using a spoon to push the icing to the edges of the cake to encourage the icing to drip down the sides dramatically. Cool the cake completely and let the icing set.
