Altered cover art for DUNE and DUNE MESSIAH by Frank Herbert. In the same cover art (brown, orange, yellow, and white colour palette, stylized desertscapes and figures) in the DUNE font of the second edition publication era, the titles are rendered: PAUL IS BAD and OK, I GUESS I WASN'T CLEAR... respectively.

My usual drink is three shots of Starbase 80 Hotsauce in a Tankard of dark spiced rum.

Who un-spiced my drink?!

#TheSpiceMustFlow!

For no apparent reason I blame the thinking machines! #ButlerianJihad time has come!

Tactical Knife time! I’ll stab every computer on DS9 until the spice flows!

One of the key takeaways I got from reading the book Dune years ago when I was in high school -- you have power over that which you have the ability to destroy.

Le Führer Orange a réussi en quelques jours à rendre réel ce que redoutait le "monde développé" depuis des décennies :

Le détroit d'Ormuz est fermé.

Ça mérite bien un Prix Nobel ou un Prix de la FIFA ...

It's pretty wild that the human body can feel spices as they evacuate from our escape hatches aka butts.

Revisiting these happy little bees!

#TheSpiceMustFlow
A double headed saffron crocus with light purple petals with even lighter purple or even whitish stripes that go up each petal like an ostrich plume or a fountain or some Art Nouveau type of design. In the center of each can be seen the yellow pollen covered stamens, and at least one each of the orange red stigmas, the saffron spice filaments. In the flower on the right, there are two pollen covered bees! One is sticking its head out and the other is sitting on one of the pedals starting to crawl inside

Looking straight down on two and a half light purple saffron crocus, their yellow pollen-covered stamens and reddish-orange saffron filaments sticking straight up. The one to the upper right has a pollen-coated bee in it. Closeup of a double blooming saffron crocus - the petals sticking straight up where the two flowers nestle together; the one on the left has its other petals wide open, and the one on the right was not fully open, but.... there are TWO pollen-coated bees in it! One is sticking its head out from amongst the pollen-coated stamens, and the other is on one of the petals, facing down into the flower. This one has a huge pollen sac visible on its back leg. Closeup POV looking through some hexagonal chicken wire fencing to two light purple saffron crocuses. Both have three yellow pollen-covered stamens and three reddish-orange saffron filaments sticking straight out. The one on the left has a very happy pollen-covered bee in it.

Today's saffron:

#Saffron

#TheSpiceMustFlow
A square raised garden bed lined with chicken wire mesh and filled with dirt. About three dozen light purple crocus blossoms in varying stages of opening stand out against the soil. A little more difficult to see are all of the tufts of dark green grass-like leaves. The chicken wire mesh top is pulled back and up, exposing most of the bed. Closeup of two light purple flowers with soft white stripes in a pattern reminiscent of a fountain or an ostrich plume as they spread out toward the outer edges of the petals. From the dark purple center of each are sprouting three pollen-covered stamens and reddish orange filaments of the saffron spice (the latter of which has slide in between petals, so the threads are hidden, poking out from below, and just in general hiding. Some of the dark green grass-like leaves spray out from below them. At the bottom, some of the chicken wire mesh lining is sticking up.

A square-shaped raised garden bed full of soil, with a couple dozen light purple crocus blossoms scattered throughout. There are also multiple tufts of dark green grass-like leaves. The chicken wire cover is pulled back and away. I'm finding it interesting how varied the stages of bloom are for the flowers before they decide they're done. Some look barely open, but start to wilt after a day. Some last for a few days, and just keep spreading wider and wider! Closeup of a light purple saffron crocus. Its inverted teardrop-shaped petals have white patterns on them that remind one of a fountain or an ostrich plume - widening out as they move toward the tips. In the darker purple center, three yellow pollen-covered stamens and three longer reddish orange saffron filaments burst out of the flower like... idunno, some weird space alien giving you a jump scare! A spray of dark green grass-like leaves (each with a thin white stripe down the centerline) frame the blossom like a starburst from behind. And, behind THAT, there are several more tufts of leaves just starting to spread out of their protective sheaths. A slightly out of focus extreme closeup of a light purple saffron flower with plume-like art nouveau stripes emerging from the narrow bases of the petals and spreading out at the outer edges. There are some dark green grass-like leaves (each with a single white stripe down its midline) next to the flower and poking out from behind/underneath it. In the center of the flower are three yellow curly pollen-covered stamens and one visible, longer reddish orange saffron filament (with some yellow pollen dusting the frilly end) stick out. There are little bits of yellow pollen dusting a couple of the petals. And... in the center, slightly on top of the stamens, there is a BEE sleeping face down into the fluted center of the blossom!!! Today's harvest - on the right, a clear plastic tray (meant to be put under a flower pot) filled with plucked light purple crocus blooms. Some are looking rather tatty. [These will be dried and added to tea!!!] On the left, a white paper towel with today's haul of saffron - a small pile of reddish-orange filaments about 2x3cm. To the left of that, yesterday's saffron harvest. Its filaments are darker red, and MUCH thinner and smaller than the freshly plucked ones.

Closeup of a light purple saffron crocus with art nouveau-esque patterned stripes on the petals. From the darker purple center, three yellow pollen-covered stamens and three long golden red saffron filaments pop out. The pollen is smudged on the insides of the petals, and on the frilly tips of the saffron filaments. Several dark green grass-like leaves with single white stripes down their centers spray out from below the blossom.

POV looking down at a light purple saffron crocus, with white stripes going up the petals that begin close together at the base, and spread out in a fountain or ostrich plume kind of way as the petal gets wider. There are three yellow pollen-covered stamens in the center, and three orange-red filaments of saffron spice draped out of the middle. A bunch of dark green grass-like leaves are all around it, and a little bit of the chicken wire is visible on the left. On a white paper towel, a small pile of about 8 spent light purple crocus flowers, petals askew. At their 6:00 is a pile of vibrant golden-red spice filaments - barely visible at the base, and slightly wider at the other end - which is frilly.

Looking through one of the hexagonal holes in a metal chicken wire mesh - a side-view of a light purple saffron crocus. The open blossom is leaning toward (and is illuminated by) the sun, its three orange-red filaments standing straight out from the center - not leaning on the petals, at all. Coming out of the base of the plant are more green grass-like leaves and another light purple bud!

BEHOLD, my bountiful harvest!

I put the ones from the other day out to show how TINY they get. Seriously, this is exactly the reason why saffron spice is the most expensive spice on Earth.

Also, the blossoms are great in tea!

Closeup of some freshly plucked orange saffron filaments on a white paper towel. They're slightly fluted - hair-thin at the lower end, and slightly wider and frilly at the top. Closeup of two fresh orange saffron filaments, with the frilly fluted ends close to us - pointing to 6:00 and 7:00-ish. A white paper towel with a pile of about a dozen and a half freshly plucked orange saffron filaments. Some are distinctly showing their hair-thin lower tip and the ever so slightly wider frilly top ends. Above this pile in the photo is a pile of dark red dried saffron filaments. They look very thin and delicate. This really demonstrates how very little actual spice you get out of these flowers... and thus why saffron is the most expensive spice (by weight) on the planet. On the left side is a pile of spent light purple saffron crocus flowers, their fancy patterned petals going in multiple directions. A couple show their yellow pollen-covered stamens, as well.
