If you help others, you will be helped, perhaps tomorrow, perhaps in one hundred years, but you will be helped. Nature must pay off the debt. It is a mathematical law and all life is mathematics.

The First Window. The grammar school in Old Fox's village was very old, established by a rich Flemish merchant in 1515. Hare's schoolroom was in the original building, and it had a very elaborately carved fireplace, in which a lovely fire roared throughout the winter months. Every morning in December, he would gather his class around the hearth, each choosing a warm woollen blanket from the oak chest under the windows, and read to them from Dickens or Hardy or the Brontës. Afterwards, Hare brewed a great pot of tea, and they made toast over the fire with long toasting forks. Those mornings were remembered by Hare's pupils for the rest of their lives. For some, that toast, slathered with creamy Dorset butter and sweet plum jam, would be their best meal of the day, ebbing the endless gnawing hunger which accompanied so many lives in those early years of the 1930s.

In #JapaneseFolklore there is a belief that when animals and birds reach advanced age they can transform into #yokai. Aosagibi (blue heron fire) is a phenomenon that occurs when an elderly night heron develops supernatural qualities. Over time the heron's feathers begin to...

Local food pantries, food rescue groups that repurpose food being sent to landfill - all could use help. Also look for your local chapter of Food Not Bombs (FNB- no hierarchies or salaries, staffed by volunteers) to see how you could help them.

convivium natalicium! (Birthday party!) Silvius et amici transmissionem fasciculi ludunt, dum Minimus tibiam utricularem canit (Silvius and his friends play Pass the Parcel while Minimus plays his bagpipes).
Photo of Minimus and Silvius, the Latin mice, with a group of little friends. Minimus is playing the bagpipes (as popularised by Nero) to accompany their game of Pass the Parcel. Fusca the crow has won the prize, a blue 'eye' amulet to keep away bad luck.

I don't know if this is my favorite Todd Snider song, or the best Todd Snider song but it is undisputably the most Todd Snider song.

cave! dracunculus terribilis alas scorteas plaudit et flammam exhalat (Beware! The terrible dragon is flapping its leathery wings and breathing out flames).
noli te vexare, Silvius musculus est (Don't worry, it's Silvius the little mouse)!
Photo of Silvius, the little Latin mouse, in the dragon costume he wore to his little friend's party. He was definitely the scariest of all the dragons present! Greek and Roman dragons didn't have legs or wings in the stories, but Silvius hopes the anachronism will be forgiven.

The fairy-tale worldview is Neanderthal.

Maybe you periodically need bouts of lawless sacred eternal ecstasy or screaming sweaty flagrant bliss or blasphemously reverent waggling rapture.

Not all the time, but sometimes.
