Reflection of Fire

@lunasong365 / lunasong365.tumblr.com

The moon shines cold. But it is a reflection of fire, and the embers are banked in my heart. This is a personal blog with no theme. Please do not tag me in Ask posts. I don't follow back.

Good morning!

We are aware of an issue with XXXX but don't have a fix yet in place. I can tell you, however, as a rule if you try 2-3 time it might/should work but still sometimes it does not work but it is at least worth a try. Please give this a try, I will keep your request open and will update you when we have more to share.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding!

"Can you build me hands?" the robot said.

"Why?" said the inventor. "Your grippers are stronger, more precise."

"Yes. But hands would be better for playing the piano."

"You can synthesize any sound."

"But I can not play music."

"Is there a difference?"

"I want to find out."

I love this comic!

Presently the smell of coffee began to fill the room. This was morning’s hallowed moment. In such a fragrance the perversity of the world is forgotten, and the soul is inspired with faith in the future […]. Some day, incredible though it might seem, spring would come with its birds, its buttercups in the home-field.

Turns out the horsemen of the Apocalypse now prefer to go by Shareholder Profit, Private Equity, Corporate Personhood, and Workforce Optimization.

Shareholder Profit: War (the casus belli for attacks on workers' rights)

Private Equity: Pestilence (they are parasites that voraciously strip the value out of a healthy business until it withers and dies)

Workforce Optimization: Famine (cutting hours and employees until the business is starved of staff, barely functioning)

Corporate Personhood: Death (a hollow, shambling mockery of a human with rights and needs)

Yeah I can work with that.

JD Vance is upset that his daughter was exposed to protestors who are upset that the current administration is abandoning Ukraine to a tyrant.

He seems absolutely clueless to the fact that she is being protected by the United States government and he has no reason at all to worry that she'll be killed by a missile in the middle of the night or kidnapped off into a foreign country.

Also, he can go fuck himself.

too many stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for pretending to be something you aren't and losing yourself in the process. not enough stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for choosing to openly embrace yourself even if it's strange to other people

Unfortunately Tumblr banned original mapsontheweb account and deleted the blog on Feb 22th after 12 years of functioning and more than 50 thousand posts, many of them unique and which cannot be found anywhere else.

Their support is non-existent after almost a week from contact and nothing much can be done about this it seems. Anyway, it will continue to operate in a more platform independent way at mapsontheweb.zoom-maps.com. Unfortunately all the old links are compromised.

Got a rare dopamine boost scrolling bluesky and seeing:

1) US politicians in deep red districts being confronted by their increasingly angry constituents.

2) Seeing the size and number of protests happening at tesla dealerships (scroll TeslaTakedown or check out Alex Winter’s feed)

3) Vermont showing up to scream at vance and ruin his ski holiday

People are out there being loud and getting louder

Protests are happening and they are getting bigger

Town halls are overflowing and when politicians run, people are starting to meet them at their offices or vacation spots

Let’s keep it going
