*After a mild spring, it suddenly got hot today. Fortunately, we had enough warning that adrian_turtle was able to contact our usual handyman and have him put the air conditioners back in the window, which he did a couple of hours ago. I am staying inside today, because 97F/36C ("feels like" 39/102) is too damned hot for me; I'm glad the handyman was willing to come when he did, rather than early in the day.

*I have been going back and forth with my health insurance company and various people at my psychiatrist's office and the Beth Israel Lahey billing department over a claim that the insurance told me they were denying. The denial letter, with instructions about how to appeal, was dated April 26 and arrived on the 28th, but they haven't sent that to my doctor's office/billing. Meanwhile, billing first told me I don't have an outstanding bill, and then today could find it but said they couldn't do anything as long as it's "pending insurance." Someone at the insurance company suggested I ask the doctor to resubmit with a different code, which seems to have them puzzled. (It was sent in as "doctor's visit, long.") Someone at the insurance company advised me to have the doctor resubmit this with a different code, but when I gave up on billing and sent my doctor a message, she said she didn't know what I want her to do and was forwarding the message to the admin people.

Trying to figure out this insurance mess is why I was on the MyChart website Sunday, and thus led to me getting an overdue mammogram yesterday.

*I mail-ordered a bunch of spices from Penzey's. I'd wanted to get this done sooner so we could take advantage of last weekend's sale, but cattitude reasonably wanted time to look through the spice cabinet. So I assembled an order yesterday, and saw that the most recent politically-themed sale would get me discounts on more things I actually wanted: peppercorns and mustard, rather than their "lemon pepper" seasoning.

Last weekend's sale was loosely immigration themed. The current one is anything starting with I, M, or P, with a promise of a discount on E, A, C, and H in a couple of days to spell out IMPEACH (which is also the current discount code). In any case, we need the pepper and mustard, as well as a variety of things that don't start with those letters, like roast garlic powder and cracked rosemary, which added up to enough for free shipping.

birdfeeding

Today is cloudy, humid, and hot. It rained most of yesterday.

I fed the birds. I've seen a few sparrows and house finches.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

I've seen a starling at the hopper feeder.

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I trimmed brush around where I want to plant the vernal witch hazel. The name means "spring" but they typically bloom in late winter.

A cool breeze is blowing from the west. It feels like a downdraft. No storm is visible on the horizon but rain is predicted, so I'm keeping an eye on things.

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I planted the vernal witch hazel at the north edge of the forest yard, near a previous one that has survived so far. :D

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I planted 20 gladioli in the north notch of the prairie garden. Surprisingly, at least a couple survived from last year and are putting up leaves.

Already I can see tiny seedlings sprouting from recent sowing of seeds. Clover is among the fastest; I mix that with grass seed for the walking paths. Some others are wildflowers. \o/

Also I uncovered the remaining water jugs that had seedlings in them. I got 3 milkweed seedlings in that jug. 3 out of the 4 native grasses have several seedlings in each -- little bluestem, northern sea oats, and side-oats grama; only the switch grass didn't sprout there. So on the whole, mixed results, but for the ones that did work, worth repeating.

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I tallied what pots I have available and what I need. I forgot to list the tomatoes that I already have though; still need to go back and do that.

I picked and ate the first couple of pea pods. :D I love being able to wander around the yard, pick things, and put them in my mouth.

EDIT 5/19/26 -- I sowed a bunch of 'Sugar Ann' snap peas and 'Avalanche' snow peas in pots that didn't already have any. So far 'Sugar Ann' seems to be growing better and producing earlier than 'Avalanche' but there are flowers and pea pods on both.

I wrote down what tomatoes I have already: chocolate cherry, 'Mr. Stripey' slicer, 'Old German' slicer, yellow pear, 'Santa' grape, and 'Cherokee Purple' slicer. I got a 4-pack of the chocolate cherries but they aren't doing great and one has already died. I could use a red or pink slicer, and I'm still looking for fancy striped cherries.

Tsui Sing Lau

Tsui Sing Lau, which translates to 'pagoda of the gathering stars', is a 13-meter tall, three storey, hexagonally shaped grey brick pagoda. Erected during the Hongwu period of the Ming dynasty (between 1368 - 1398), it was ordained as a monument in 2001, and is the only remaining ancient pagoda in Hong Kong.

Located in the modern day satellite town of Tin Shui Wai in northwestern Hong Kong, Tsui Sing Lau was built as a feng shui structure by a family surnamed Tang, to deter flooding and evil spirits from the north. This location was once next to an estuary, but extensive land reclamation for Tin Shui Wai's construction in the 1980s, means that the pagoda is now situated almost 3km away from Deep Bay.

According to the Tang clan's genealogy, the pagoda originally stood seven storeys tall, but was scaled down to five, then three storeys, after sustaining heavy damage during two strong typhoons. Housed on the top floor is a statue of Fui Sing, a deity believed to be in control of success or failure in examinations. While on the ground floor, Kwan Tai, the Martial God, and Man Cheong, the God of Literature, are revered.

Chinese inscriptions are visible on all three levels of the pagoda's facade, Tsui Sing Lau is inscribed on the second level. The characters on the ground and top levels translate to 'light shines straight onto the dippers and enclosures' and 'over the milky way'.

Wool combing, carding and drawing machines

This museum is based at the former Moorside Mills textile factory (built 1874). Originally, only 2 stories the mill was extended upwards by 2 floors during the boom period of WW1 and in 1919 an impressive clock tower was added as a memorial to the factory's workers who fell in the war. Unusually the museum houses a number of memorial plaques from closed mills or trade bodies commemorating workers killed during WW1.

The public areas are on the lower two floors (admin and conservation operate on the top two floors) and in a semi-basement area to the north of the main building which houses the only surviving Newton Bean and Mitchell Uniflow steam engine and a tram shed which opens onto the tram and trolley bus track which is on the exterior of the building. A former Bradford tram and a trolleybus are housed here. Across the courtyard in the "Carriage Shed" is also a horse-drawn omnibus (unfortunately a reproduction). Other external areas include a section dedicated to horse transport including a farriers workshop and a row of 6 back to back houses, Gaythorne Row. Currently each are presented in the furnishings and décor of different periods from the late 19th century, through WW2, to the 1970s.

Back in the main building visitors enter through the main lobby pat a display relating to Bradford's Nobel prize winner Sir Edward Appleton , who discovered the ionosphere and later contributed to radar development. On the ground floor is the "motive power" section , which also houses a section called the millwrights workshop. in here the lathes, drilling and milling machines etc are all driven by a belt and overhead drive shaft system as would have originally been the case. The system is driven by a small horizontal steam engine.

The next section is the transport section with a collection of cars and motorcycles, dominated by the (now defunct) manufacturers from the local area, notably Panther and Scott motorcycles and Jowett cars and vans. This includes an example of the Jowett Jupiter model which won the Le Mans 24 hour race 3 years in succession (1950-52) There is also a standard gauge steam locomotive (Nellie) which operated at a local sewage treatment works from 1922 to 1977 during which time it operated in a (before its time) "carbon neutral" mode , burning dried sewage sludge and using sewer grease (largely wool grease from scouring effluent) as a lubricant. The other section on this floor deals with the printing industry in a gallery that includes compositing equipment and printing presses and a replica of a manual type setting workshop.

The upper of the two accessible floors is dedicated to the textile industry and, as well as a display of textile testing apparatus, includes a section on the colour checking processes. This was an important factor in the Bradford wool industry (at one time the University of Bradford ran a, world renowned, specific degree course on colour chemistry to support the, now much reduced, but still world beating (for high end woollen textiles), Bradford textile industry. Several examples of local woollen products are on display.

Much of the machinery is regularly run but the "timetable" is volunteer dependent and thus can sometimes be changed.

The first thing I did Monday morning was invite my computer to drink an ENTIRE CUP of coffee. Not sure why I did that, but I literally just held the cup over the keyboard and FUMBLED it. I think we all know perfectly well that computers do no like coffee, nor really any copious amounts of liquids inside their electronic brains.

I am crossing fingers right now? But after letting it dry out for a whole day, I do *think* I may have a working laptop again.

Coffee no longer gets to be even on the same surface as my laptop, however.

Queer Non-Monogamy in Edwardian London.

Author of article does point out that this is happening among people with huge amounts of privilege and possibilities of discretion:

[I]t is certainly easy to romanticise the traditions of lavender marriages and queer non-monogamy that were so prevalent in the London arts scene during the Belle Epoch. However, to over-simplify the past in this way would be to overlook the many tensions that existed between queer couples, as well as the growing interest in alternative relationship structures within heterosexual participants in this scene. Most importantly, however, it would be a failure not to take into consideration the considerable inequalities that allowed the rich and the powerful to live by a double-standard of sexual propriety. Provided they avoided relationships that troubled other structures like class and race, this group remained free from the expected social and legal repercussions of queer sex in the early twentieth century.

Ahem ahem.

Does she not realise quite how much This Sort of Thing - negotiating the boundaries of marriages that were made for various reasons of status, money, and politics, to accommodate other relationships - had been going on For A Very Long Time, and has she not seen that movie about the Duchess of Devonshire in the late C18th? (Which included sapphic dalliance.)

Will concede (she concedes) that a) Lords Strachan and Warwick did not seem on-board with their Ladies' sapphic dalliance (see icon), though the issue there does seem to have been they had not been sufficiently Pas Devant the wrong kind of people who would gossip and go away to make satirical prints sold in Piccadilly and b) the whole thing probably got even more discreet in the Victorian era, though when one considers Edward the Caresser's set, did it do so by very much?

I once, in fact, I think, put forward an argument that Bertrand Russell, e.g., in his arguments for free love, was proposing to democratise a way of life his family had been practising for generations.

Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception

Standing proudly in central Maputo, this cathedral is impossible to miss with its luminous white facade and bold neoclassical design that gives it an almost sculpted, timeless feel. Its twin bell towers rise above the city, creating a calm visual anchor amid the movement and noise of the capital.

Built in the early 20th century, it reflects a layered history, yet it remains very much part of everyday life, welcoming worshippers and visitors alike. What makes it truly memorable is the contrast it creates, serene and majestic, yet fully integrated into the rhythm of a modern African city.

Heya ! God it's been a WHILE since I've posted here LOL ! But I've been thinking on something I haven't gotten a straight answer for :

I have an OC , and a part of their backstory involves pretty much being locked inside their house for 4 years at 17 by their dad at an attempt to keep them away from publicity after their mother killed someone .

To be more specific on their conditions :

- They're not allowed outside unless it's absolutely necessary (example , to see a doctor)

- They have one specific friend who is allowed to come over at any time , and they do message on social media via an anonymous account.

- They do home schooling , to explain education stuff .

They finally move out and go outside more when they're 22 , aka 5 years later .

I know that a (likely permanent) damaged immune system would be one of the negative effects due to lack of vitamin D and exercise , but what else could be a side effect , physically , socially AND mentally ? And how could it be for them when actually going outside for the first time again ? I haven't gotten lots of resources for it ..

Edit : Ok so I learned I'm likely wrong on the immune system , but theres lots of traits I considered that I never considered could've been caused by this trauma ..

Also ! It's worth noting that the character would overall lack motivation to do . Anything for that matter , so exercising is kinda off the table and they lack a lot of basic self-care .

This is my last two weeks, basically, though there's also work involved around the edges.

The thing is, my mom had been trundling along as kind-of there in the mornings and pretty much not in the afternoon, but still wanting to take walks (And get lost and stand in the middle of the street, or try and get into other people's houses; this part had long since become a concern to me but my father seemed to be blasé and unworried, but I've already ranted about that here, so: rar.)

The taking-walks-and-being-stable-on-her-feet part basically ended last week, around the same time when my dad was finally like, "Actually, she isn't safe at home," and we finally got to looking at assisted living.

I scheduled two places, one for my brother to look at and one for me to look at; my brother looked at a (good) place in Dedham, Charter, and I looked at it just after him, and then the next day, my mom had this thing during dinner with my dad where she tried to sit down on a chair and kind of missed most of it, almost sat, but then slid onto the floor. This may or may not be where she busted two lower left ribs; mind you, she has fallen before, and has been having back pain for awhile, so that is a Mystery, but: probably.

Anyway, so: on floor. Could not get up. My dad, who has early stage Parkinson's himself, could not help her up.

( Cut for length and irritation factor. )

So we still don't know if Charter will take her, but I bet they will. (10 cents, but it's still a bet.) Also, the In Theory Good Hospital, for locals, is Faulkner. (But they're all Beth Israel Deaconess anyway so it hardly matters.)

And now, I will do some work, for work.

I have a lot to say about my mother's situation but I kind of feel I should post about good news, too, so: hey, I got a new-to-me car! (2022 Kia Niro.) It's getting amazingly good gas mileage (like, 56 MPG on average), which is good given the current situation.

It's bigger than I'm used to, though it is Not An SUV. Even so, it has more cargo space than the Prius, and it has both good rear vision and a lot more bells and whistles than I'm used to. F'rex, positively, it alerts if people are walking behind you; less positively, it dings if I go out of the lane line without signaling, but I'm trying to see it as, I should use my turn signals more anyway.

It also overheated last weekend while it was being humid out, but I fiddled with the caps to the radiator and that *appears* to have been the trouble, which is weird but there you go, and it has given me no angst since, and, I like it.

It's blue! (But a different blue than my Fit.)

Lois McMaster Bujold, Dark Sight Dare. Kindle. This is a very nice novella. It is not twisty, it is not startling, it is a very kind story about people doing their best with difficult circumstances. I don't think it's the best place to begin the series, but it's a pleasant addition thereto.

William Dalrymple, Return of a King: the Battle for Afghanistan, 1839-42. Kindle. It's a really useful and thoughtful book, but what it is not is uplifting. Great Game my arse. Anyway it's still worth knowing this stuff, it affects the modern world and remains interesting.

Sylviane A. Diouf, Slavery's Exiles: The Story of the American Maroons. Oh this was so good. Oh my goodness, this was so good. Again not with the uplifting, except that in some ways it was, that people's determination to free themselves and their families was actually pretty wonderful, and hearing the details of how they did it--this should be taught in more schools all over North America, this was absolutely great. Some people fled completely naked! They just got out, and reading about their communities and lives was really neat.

Paul Farmer, AIDS and Accusation: Haiti and the Geography of Blame. Kindle. I was on vacation! I'm so much fun to take on vacation! This is a book about the early AIDS epidemic in Haiti and featuring Haitians abroad, and it does actual math and science about how the Haitian people were far, far more sinned against than sinning here. Not fun times but useful to know--and Farmer wrote a new preface about dealing with new pandemics, alas that he should have to.

Margaret Frazer, Shakespeare's Mousetrap. Kindle. The supposed secret history of Titus Andronicus and its role in (fictional) actual murder; I think this is my least favorite of her shorts, and probably I should just stop reading them, completeness is not an unmixed virtue.

Sarah Gristwood, Blood Sisters: The Women Behind the Wars of the Roses. Kindle. Queens and princesses and what they did and where they went, not enough breadth in my opinion but still better than nothing.

Reece Jones, Violent Borders: Refugees and the Right to Move. Kindle. This is a book from about ten years ago, and it's heartbreaking how real and deadly these problems already were then, and how much worse now.

W.F. Kirby, The Hero of Esthonia and Other Studies in the Romantic Literature of That Country. Kindle. You can probably tell from the way this is titled that it is a quite old book. It maddeningly is not the Kalevipoeg but rather a sort of summary of the Kalevipoeg. Kirby blithely informs us that he has omitted many irrelevant passages, some of which might have been of great interest to me, but this is very much a beggars/choosers situation. It exists, I could read this much at least, welp.

E.C.R. Lorac, Murder in Vienna. Kindle. Golden Age puzzle-type mystery. I did not bond with any of the characters, but it rattled along reasonably well and I will keep reading this author.

Casey McQuiston, The Pairing. Kindle. I continue to explore the boundaries of what romance I might like, and the answer here is: eh. It was briskly written, it was amusing, it was fine on a train...and I continued to want the character relationships with other people to matter.

Linda Proud, Pallas and the Centaur. Kindle. Second book in her "Botticelli trilogy," historical fiction set during the Italian Renaissance. This is mostly not fantasy (no centaurs were harmed in the making of this book) except for the bit where someone might be possessed by a deity from antiquity. I think it will work better if you've read the first one, so you know what she's doing with her fictional central characters in the middle of all the real historical figures.

Brett Rushforth, Bonds of Alliance: Indigenous and Atlantic Slaveries in New France. I didn't set out to have a slavery theme in the nonfiction reading in this fortnight, but I found this in the Museum of Archaeology and History in Montreal and knew I wouldn't find it again readily. It was really good at nuance and variation in ways that were extremely informative.

D.E. Stevenson, Miss Buncle Married. Kindle. The second in its very light series, and don't start with this one; you'll enjoy the central characters more if you have the perspective on where they started. Short. Fun.

Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, Monday Starts on Saturday. Kindle. A reread technicality: this is a very different, and much better, translation than the one I read a few decades ago. I feel like this is particularly crucial for speculative satire. Luckily for me, this edition translates the title as "starts" whereas the other translates it as "begins," so it will be easy to keep track of which one I want. Surreal and funny.

Claire Tomalin, Samuel Pepys. Kindle. I read this because I trust Claire Tomalin as a biographer, not because I have a particularly keen interest in Pepys, and it did not disappoint. Her sense of context, her ability to be thoughtfully positive where possible without losing track of her subject's flaws--she's one of the best in the business, and this is an interesting book even if you're not completely fascinated with Pepys.

Anthony Trollope, Doctor Thorne. Kindle. The ending spelled itself out in such clear detail from the outset that I can't really say it's one of my favorite Trollopes, but it's not one of my least favorites either, as he wasn't notably bigoted in any particular direction--and in fact he seemed to be arguing for acceptance of "illegitimate" children as full members of society. It was a reasonable thing to read on a plane.

Vanessa Walters, The Lagos Wife. A thriller set in Nigeria among the foreign-born wives of wealthy Nigerians. While the twist ending wasn't my favorite, the multiplicity of cultural perspectives was exquisitely well-done and nuanced. I'll keep an eye out for anything else Walters chooses to do.

When my doctor told me to get a mammogram, she warned me they were scheduling months in advance. Instead, when I logged on to MyChart yesterday, it offered a lot of appointments in the next few days, including several this afternoon at a nearby location.

I had nothing else planned for this afternoon, so I made an appointment for this afternoon, a convenient trolley ride from home. Unfortunately, it didn't warn me that I would have to climb a couple of flights of stairs, because the building elevator has been out of service since May 4. The mammogram itself was uncomfortable, but not as bad as I had expected. I think the main difference is that it was quicker than last time, which may be because they were using better machinery than the last few times.

Take five books off your bookshelf: I took 5 fairly random books from the various piles around the room I am in.

First sentence from Book no 1: 'Two women had arranged to have tea together, in the flat of one of them which was in a rather distant and not so fashionable quarter of the Left Bank'.

Last sentence from page 50 of Book no 2 -- last sentence on page fifty: 'Eleanor wrote that their great difficulty would be in managing their first break with their friends'.

Second sentence on page 100 of Book no 3: 'Canfield was polite, softening his rejection by saying if Sybille were to write a full-length novel one day he would be pleased to read it'.

Next to the last sentence on p 150 of book no 4: 'Because it's true, you know--he's not like any of them, he's completely alien to that whole bright, corrupt court'.

Final sentence of book 5: 'We have many more evenings before us if we want them'.

Make these sentences into a paragraph:

Two women had arranged to have tea together, in the flat of one of them which was in a rather distant and not so fashionable quarter of the Left Bank. Eleanor wrote that their great difficulty would be in managing their first break with their friends. Canfield was polite, softening his rejection by saying if Sybille were to write a full-length novel one day he would be pleased to read it. Because it's true, you know--he's not like any of them, he's completely alien to that whole bright, corrupt court. We have many more evenings before us if we want them.

I don't think any rearrangement would make that make any more sense

A small former mining town which is only gradually recovering from the total loss of its coal mining industry is hardly the place to expect, what can only be described as, a world class museum.

However, Barbara Hepworth was a world renowned artist, known mainly for her abstract sculptures. The museum named in her honour and containing a great deal of her work opened in the town of her birth in 2011. She was was born in Wakefield, Yorkshire, England in 1903 and educated at the Leeds School of Art alongside her great friend Henry Moore. Her most famous work is located outside the United Nations building in New York which she created as a memorial to the former Secretary General, Dag Hammarsskjöld who was also a close friend of hers. She is best known as the sculptor who introduced the pierced form to her abstract works, a feature which was later adopted by Henry Moore and who sometimes, wrongly, gets the credit.

The building was designed by David Chipperfield. It is a great example of modern architecture which contrast very well with a group of magnificent former industrial buildings in brick (now including many work spaces for creatives) which are just at the southern boundary of the museum. The trapezoid forms of the concrete structure which forms the museum "dips its feet" on one side into the River Calder, directly alongside a very attractive weir and directly across the road from the famous Chantry Chapel.

The collection includes work from a range of artists including LS Lowry . Henry Moore, Ronald Moody and David Hockney. There is also much space for regularly changing temporary exhibitions (including rotation of the City's art collection) and a small sculpture garden outside.

The institution is deliberately described here as a museum rather than a gallery since great effort is made to enlighten the visitor as to the processes used in creating the art.

This museum is well worth the visit, particularly if you also take in the Chantry Bridge. Some seven miles to the southwest is the Yorkshire Sculpture park which is an outdoor space with many, much larger modern sculptures. If you are travelling by car it is easy to incorporate a visit here with a trip to the Hepworth.
