I had a terrible nightmare about being left by my significant other because I'm a disssapointment and a failure as a human being. I know it was just a dream but it still nags in my mind because it is a fear I've had for a while now and dreams about real people alwas hit me hard because I usually don't dream at all, don't remember or my dreams are very abstract things.... So real people dreams with lifelike situations always feel like a terrible foreboding...

Being an Italian and Scandinavian pagan has it's challenges, but this new ink sums it up. Odin, Norse God of wisdom and war / Venus, Roman Goddess of love and kindness. We all have 2 sides.

Hey, you can't park there! (remnants of Hurricane Beryl caused flooding in northern New England)

In 2020 trump lost to biden in New York by 23 points BUT accoroding to the polls he was ment to lose by 31 points meaning the polls are off by 8 points their, if he gets the polls down to 7 percent he will win in the election their and flip the state red, And thats not even including the fake mail in ballots he might not have to deal with.

I never thought a peroson's voice would calm me down the same way music does. I am having a majorly shieeetty day and a bad device failure in the lab which left me angry and frustrated. Tried to listen to my favourite kind of instrumental music to calm down while cleaning up the mess. Still, I remained grinding my teeth brooding over what just happened. In the end what finally calmed down was listening to his voice messages again. Guess I finally found the person that makes me feel like music does. Wonder if it's the same for him... https://youtu.be/PuYQAjeecO

Vampyrouss - "Jagged Pieces" (2019) Lyrics: With moonlight as the only guide We wander side by side The silence growing deafening I dare not catch your eye The bluish hues surround us Casting shadows on our shame To mask our true expressions… Our journey has led us this far Into the murky dark unknown Casting out the doubts, we hide Together, never more alone Despite our best intentions Every effort remains in vain All the trampled, jagged pieces Can never fit back together again Time rolls ever on regardless of The shards left in our open wounds Winding on through all the noise And the silent ones gone far too soon Memories left, fading away A cruel mockery this mortal game So claim a draw whilst it’s there to breathe Then bury the regrets with the rest of me But until that day dawns it’s final rays We will close that tome on an empty page With moonlight as the only guide We wander side by side The silence growing deafening I dare not catch your eye The bluish hues surround us Casting shadows on our shame To mask our true expressions: Empty, shallow, grave We continue upon this path The far less travelled road Passing by the warning signs, still blind To the destination unknown In spite of our best efforts The outcome remains the same All the fractured, jagged pieces Left in the wake of our mistakes... So little left, traded away For a handful of scars, ancient runes Yet we still convince ourselves in the dead of the night All the lies that we wish would come true The brooding moonlight’s soothing light A spotlight on the scene Of the long dark night of the soulless Succumbing to the need The prose tinted glasses shattered Revealing the endgame Expressionless we walk away Empty, shallow, grave Every dead end diverted Still the sequence remains unbreached Passing by our past mistakes and ties All our vanquished hopes and dreams… Despite our best intentions Every effort remains in vain All the trampled, jagged pieces Can never fit back together again In spite of our best efforts The outcome remains the same All the fractured, jagged pieces Left in the wake of our mistakes...

Vampyrouss - "MGHMMVI" (2006/2013) Lyrics: Midnight chimes ring out again Beckoning the twisted nightmares to descend Upon me and deep into my mind To prey upon stray rays of hope left dying inside... My gothic heart cries to be set free From darkness (my mistress), and her reverie I yearn to feel pure rays upon my skin To forget the brooding shadow brewing sin... Somewhere I know you hold the key The sacred prose, the words to set me free Wolves cry unto the moon outside Calling their brethren to take my life Will you help bring about my demise As they tear my flesh and feast on me tonight? My gothic heart cries to be released Before darkness reaches out her hand to me Will she take me deep into the night To forget the love, the torch that burnt so bright? Lyrics by Kazraine Maars, 2006. Music by Azrael Gexen, 2006. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04-QgdaL0jU

SANTA CLAUS : RED, GREEN OR BLUE ? Before the Coca-Cola advertising campaign of the 1930s, Santa Claus was dressed not in red, but in green, the color of enduring plant life, the color of abundance and fertility, heralding an imminent rebirth of nature. Earlier, he was dressed in blue, the color traditionally associated with ... Wotan / Woden / Odin. Furthermore, it should be noted that long before the Coca-Cola advertising campaign, the American illustrator Thomas Nast (1840-1902) had represented the famous outfitter dressed in a red livery. It therefore seems that Coca-Cola did not strictly speaking invent this diversion, the US firm having only taken it over on its own account for the needs of its advertising ... - Hans Cany -
