“Parents were promised a world of pure imagination, but turned up to find a sparse warehouse with a rainbow and bouncy castle.” A fitting metaphor for our times. 🌈 https://apple.news/A_Pk4dlYlSSiSWPd0wXmhqg

In its glory days, Castle Harwood was the heart of a happy land governed by wise and virtuous nobles. But those days are long gone now. Calamity has befallen these lands, and wicked magics corrupt ...

The plum grove at Ōsaka Castle (大阪城公園の梅林) is not widely known but is early with plum blossoms of many varieties and colors. Especially white ones when they first open up completely are fragrant. If you think love is a drug like the old dandy rocker Brian Ferry's song for Roxy Music, you will love sniffing white plum blossoms 🤣 .

Registration for virtual (remote) attendees for Measuring Behavior 2024 #MB2024 is now open.

The play COPENHAGEN, the movie RASHOMON, and the novel THE MAN IN THE HIGH CASTLE are all post-war wave-collapse multiple-interpretation superpositions of destroyed-yet-somehow-still-extant imperial ambition, in this essay I will
“Horace Walpole went from Eton to King’s College, Cambridge, and entered Parliament in 1741, the year before his father’s final resignation and acceptance of an earldom. His way of life was made easy to him. As Usher of the Exchequer, Comptroller of the Pipe, and Clerk of the Estreats in the Exchequer, he received nearly two thousand a year for doing nothing, lived with his father, and amused himself.”

"It is plainly obvious to everyone that if you’re going to save the world, one of the first things you have to do is buy a 550-year-old British castle near the University of Oxford for about $15 million. This was the logic in 2021 when members of the so-called Effective Altruism movement’s signature institution bought a posh, 25-bedroom residence called Wytham Abbey as a place to have conferences and stage other various intellectual frolics."

Came across this article and wanted to present it in one of those haha spotted-a-hypocrisy framings, but as it turns out I didn't find British media articles complaining that the US media was silly for writing on president-related pets. Instead they covered President Biden's bitey dog with enthusiasm.
Anyway, someone over at the BBC was tasked with chasing the extreme periphery of anyone who ever came near the royals, resulting in this update. Sorry for your loss!

Adventure
Adventure is a video game for the Atari 2600 video game console, released in 1980. In the game, the player controls a square avatar whose quest is to hunt an open world environment for a magical chalice, returning it to the golden castle. The game world is populated by roaming enemies: dragons, which can eat the avatar; and a bat, which randomly steals and hides items around the game world.

Heute vor 70 Jahren: Am 7. April 1954 testen die USA im Rahmen von Operation Castle eine weitere Wasserstoffbombe. Die #Koon explodierte im Bikini Atoll oberirdisch u. entwickelte eine Sprengkraft von 110KT (vorgesagt waren 0,33-3,5MT). Der Test gilt als Fehlschlag.
