You have strayed into the Land of Dreams.  Reality here is fluid and not always comprehensible.

But what of me?  Perhaps just a fading dream, sustained by music, books, nature, film, and art.

The film 𝘌𝘭 𝘈𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘻𝘰 𝘥𝘦 𝘭𝘢 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦 has been described as an Amazonian dream. At a couple of points, the dream degenerates into a nightmare.

softening every hard edge it can find.
Maybe not everything needs sharp answers today.

Francisco Goya produced a set of engravings known as 𝘓𝘰𝘴 𝘊𝘢𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘰𝘴. This is number 43 in the series. To aid in your translation (if necessary), I reproduce the text: 𝘌𝘭 𝘴𝘶𝘦ñ𝘰 𝘥𝘦 𝘭𝘢 𝘳𝘢𝘻ó𝘯 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘰𝘴.⁣

J's Tune of the Day 🎧

I can usually rely on Darren Revell's Big Sonic Heaven radio program to yield at least one Tune of the Day. The September 7 program did not disappoint and, indeed, produced several candidates. Here is the winner:

This is one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite films. Some might see it as a "hot take," but I like 2049 more than the original and consider 2049 better. 📽️

Vincent Van Gogh
"Starry Night Over the Rhone" (September 1888)
oil on canvas | 72.5 × 92 cm (28.5 × 36.2 in).
Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France
#ArtSky #VanGogh
"Starry Night Over the Rhône" painted by Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh in September 1888. The famous oil-on-canvas painting captures a nocturnal view of the Rhône River in Arles, France, featuring gas reflections on the water and a couple walking in the foreground. The original masterpiece is housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France. Key Features The Setting: Painted at night under a gas lamp, it captures the intense reflection of artificial golden town lights across the royal blue water of the river. The Figures: In the bottom right foreground, a strolling couple walks along the banks of the river. Connection to "The Starry Night": This piece is a predecessor to his even more famous June 1889 canvas, The Starry Night, which he painted later while staying at an asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

“It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
-J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Go out the door and embrace the unknown

Not a bad choice for a Monday🤷🏻‍♀️
