This week’s #ThursdayFiveList, courtesy of @…, is #BeneathTheWaves.
1. Daneshevskaya, “Challenger Deep”—

JMW Turner’s 1840 oil painting “The Slave Ship”.

A burning, stormy, orange sky illuminates a sinking ship, the roiling sea in the foreground littered with the hands and manacles of drowning men. Fish and seabirds flock to feed on the victims.

With a hat-tip to @…, this week's #ThursdayFiveList is all about the #Beverages.
1. Vinnie Maniscalco, “Takillya”—

The front page of the November 18, 1981 issue of the New York Post, featuring the story that partly inspired Suzanne Vega’s “Tom’s Diner”—the death of actor William Holden.

“Drunken Fall Killed Holden,” the headline says. “He smashed his head on table, says coroner: Page 3”

A faded photo shows Holden with a drinking glass in his hand. The caption reads: “William Holden, pictured in New York last year, at the opening of an exhibition featuring photographs of the wilds of Kenya he loved so much…

This week's #ThursdayFiveList is @…'s #MusicOfTheMountains:
1. Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, “Man on the Silver Mountain”—

Nicholas Roerich’s 1933 symbolist painting, “Tibet, Himalayas”. Ice-blue peaks loom above a hillside covered in snow and dzong monasteries (perhaps Gyantse Dzong?). A couple of snow-covered stupas and a yellow, rectangular prayer flag crouch in the foreground, off to the left.

This week's #thursdayfivelist, courtesy of @…, is #FelineFriends: #cat songs.…

A big, fluffy, black cat asleep on pale-coloured carpet, a sliver of pink tongue protruding from his mouth, and his forepaws curled. Parts of his back and neck fur have reddened with sun exposure, and his tummy fur’s slowly turning white as he ages.

This week’s #ThursdayFiveList, courtesy of @…, is #StreamsOfDreams: songs about dreams and dreaming. My picks:
1. Neoni & UNDREAM, “Nightmare”—

A striped grey cat sleeping upside down on a soft surface.  Its folded-over front paws are twitching heavily, suggesting that the cat is intensely dreaming. (Alt text by @pteryx@dice.camp—thank you!)
