The connection between the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and the MK Ultra program is rooted in the alleged use of the song in mind control experiments conducted by the CIA as part of the MK Ultra project.
MK Ultra was a covert CIA program that ran from the early 1950s to the late 1960s, focused on developing methods of mind control, chemical interrogation, and other forms of psychological manipulation. The program involved experiments on unwitting subjects, often using drugs like LSD and other psychoactive substances.
According to some accounts, the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" was used in these experiments as a form of auditory stimulation. The theory suggests that the song's melody and lyrics were employed to induce altered states of consciousness or to reinforce certain behaviors in the subjects. The song's repetitive and soothing nature might have been used to help subjects enter a trance-like state, making them more susceptible to suggestion and manipulation.
It's important to note that much of the information about MK Ultra is shrouded in secrecy, and many of the program's records were destroyed in the 1970s. As a result, the specific use of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" in the context of MK Ultra remains a subject of speculation and conspiracy theories.
Despite the lack of concrete evidence, the song has become a cultural symbol associated with the darker aspects of government experiments and mind control, partly due to its inclusion in popular media and its enduring presence in the public consciousness.

Absolutely 💯 💕 this. Simply delicious.
Once upon a time in the realm of Mount Olympus, there lived two Greek gods who were known for their... unique attributes. Zeus, the king of the gods, was blessed with an impressive endowment, while Hermes, the messenger god, was often the subject of playful teasing due to his smaller size.
One day, Hermes was feeling a bit down about his situation. He decided to pay a visit to Zeus, hoping to get some advice on how to handle the constant jokes and comparisons. As he entered the grand hall of Zeus, he found the mighty god lounging on his throne, looking rather pleased with himself.
"Hermes, my friend!" Zeus boomed, his voice echoing through the hall. "What brings you to my humble abode?"
Hermes, trying to hide his discomfort, replied, "Well, Zeus, I was hoping to get some advice from you. You know, about... certain matters."
Zeus raised an eyebrow, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Ah, I see. You're here about the old 'size matters' debate, aren't you?"
Hermes nodded, his cheeks flushing slightly.
"Listen, Hermes," Zeus began, leaning forward. "Size isn't everything. Sure, I might have the advantage in that department, but it's not just about what you've got, it's about how you use it."
Hermes looked puzzled. "What do you mean?"
Zeus chuckled. "I mean, it's not just about the size of your... weapon. It's about the stories you tell, the adventures you have, and the way you make people feel. You, Hermes, are the messenger of the gods. You have the power to deliver news, to bring joy or sorrow, to inspire and to challenge. That's your true strength."
Hermes pondered Zeus' words, a newfound confidence beginning to bloom within him. "You're right, Zeus. I've been so focused on what I don't have that I forgot about all the amazing things I can do."
Zeus clapped him on the back, a proud smile on his face. "That's the spirit! Now, how about we go down to the mortal realm and show them a good time? I'm sure we can come up with some stories that will make them forget all about our... differences."
And so, Hermes and Zeus set off on a grand adventure, spreading laughter and joy wherever they went, proving that true power lies not in what you have, but in how you use it. And from that day forward, Hermes held his head high, knowing that he was more than just a small package—he was a god with a big heart and an even bigger story to tell.
My thoughts too. They mentioned it can only be viewed from the outside,but the interior looks pretty intact.

Jal Mahal, the "Water Palace"
Jal Mahal, or "Water Palace," is a stunning palace located in the middle of Lake Man Sagar in Jaipur, India.
Built in the 18th century by Maharaja Jai Singh II, it is an elegant example of Rajput and Mughal architecture.
Only the top floor of the five-story palace is visible above the water, while the other floors are submerged. The palace was used for hunting and recreation, providing a cool haven, especially in the summer months.
Today, a tourist attraction, Jal Mahal offers a visual feast with its location on the lake and the surrounding Aravalli Hills. However, the interior is closed to the public.

Have you ever wondered why most classical and later Renaissance sculptures feature small penises?
In ancient Greece, a large penis was linked to barbarism, unchecked lust, and folly, traits often embodied by mythical creatures like satyrs. These guys were depicted with huge, exaggerated dicks to highlight their wild, animalistic, or even comedic nature.
On the other hand, a small, compact, unaroused penis symbolized moderation, the mark of a civilized man.
Heroes, athletes, and gods were depicted this way to emphasize rationality over base instincts, ensuring the viewer's focus remained on the body's overall equilibrium rather than any distracting element.
So yeah, boasting around with a massive dick in the company of Plato and his followers? That probably screamed “barbaric, lustful fool.”
For example, the image above shows a silenus masturbating, a detail from side B of a Greek column krater featuring two sileni and a maenad in a Dionysiac scene.

Boracay Island News 22 September 🏝️
Immediately following the 4 p.m. mass at the Holy Rosary Parish, close to a hundred people joined the “Prayer Rally Against Corruption: Human Chain at the Beach” and unity walk, all dressed in white to signify a peaceful, non-partisan and non-political demonstration.
Placards were first laid at the altar, allowing participants to choose the message they wished to carry. The silent procession then made its way to the White Beach grotto known as Willy’s Rock, where they formed a human chain and chants rang out: “Jail the corrupt! I-kulong na yan, mga kurakot!”
Chief of Police of Malay MPS, PLtCol. Alain Terence Licdan told Boracay Sun News, “The gathering was calm and orderly, with only locals participating. There were no signs of radicals or threats.” 🇵🇭💪

The Tboli is an indigenous community from South Cotabato known for their rich cultural heritage and deep spiritual connection to nature.
At the heart of their traditions is Tnalak, a sacred cloth woven from abaca fibers and dyed using intricate ikat patterns.
Crafted exclusively by women known as "dreamweavers," each Tnalak design is believed to be revealed through dreams, making every piece a spiritual expression as much as a work of art. This textile not only symbolizes Tboli identity but also embodies their values of harmony, ancestry, and cultural continuity.

Good morning nostr, today we have church first, then i need get home and water some plants, spread more compost, and maybe do some trail maintenance. Yesterday, we ran into one of our local sheriff deputies, and we had a chance to talk for a bit. Living in the country, the sheriff's office is usually called first in case of emergencies. I liked him because he genuinely seems to care about doing his job well and helping folks in need. Very down to earth, and he even gave us his cell number if we ever had issues or just questions about anything. I dont generally like having anything to do with law enforcenent, but from first impressions this guy is solid. Could come in handy someday. Anyway, yall have a great sunday, enjoy your coffee, and remember that today is a gift. #coffeechain #homesteading https://cdn.nostrcheck.me/8d9d2b77930ee54ec3e46faf774ddd041dbb4e4aa35ad47c025884a286dd65fa/9c40c38736b5b99fc317ff018e4749923b0a256a2bb22040de97f81bdcd9c9bc.webp

This week in 1979, photographer Pennie Smith took the photo of Paul Simonon that ended up on the cover of the “London Calling” LP (September 20, at 9.50pm)
Pennie had accompanied The Clash throughout their 1979 US tour, and very nearly didn’t attend this particular concert.
In the end she chose to turn down the offer to go out with friends and ended up stage right at The Palladium in New York City.
The band were used to playing to a seething mass of bodies, but not on this night – The Palladium had fixed seating, and bouncers were strictly enforcing the sit-down rule, which was a bummer for the band.
“The show had gone quite well,” Simonon recalled, “but for me, inside, it just wasn’t working well, so I suppose I took it out on the bass.
If I was smart, I would have got the spare bass and used that one, because it wasn’t as good as the one as I smashed up.
When I look at it now, I wish I’d lifted my face up a bit more.”
Pennie Smith usually stood on the other side near Mick Jones, but for some reason she changed it up and stood on the other side, about 6 feet from Simonon.
She remembers seeing him suddenly spin toward her. “He was in a really bad mood, and that wasn’t like him.”
She was so startled, she got the photograph.
“It wasn’t a choice to take the shot.
My finger just went off.”
That chance moment gave the band an ideal image for the London Calling cover…
After poring through hundreds of photos to choose a cover shot, as soon as Joe Strummer saw it, he knew it was “the one”.
But Smith wasn’t so sure…
“I said, ‘It’s completely out of focus, it won’t work!’
But Joe wouldn’t have it.
He said, ‘That one is the photo.’
So I thought, ‘OK, I’m not going to argue. It’s your bloody album, get on with it.”
It was illustrator Ray Lowry’s idea to borrow the font, colours, and set-up of Elvis Presley’s self-titled debut album cover, and it was another stroke of genius.
Both punk and rock and roll held the same cultural significance, each in their own time, but The Clash announced themselves on the album cover as purifiers of the tradition, stripping out the “phony Beatlemania” Strummer decried in the title track and replacing it with righteous, if barely-in-focus, rage…
And this photo crystallized it…perpetuating it in time…
One of the most iconic photos in rock history….

Great question...
No, the Inca were not primarily carnivorous; their diet was mostly vegan, consisting of plants like potatoes, corn, and quinoa, supplemented by domesticated animals such as llamas, alpacas, and guinea pigs, and occasionally hunted game like deer.
Key foods in the Inca diet:
Vegetables: Potatoes and corn were staple crops, with amaranth also being consumed.
Grains: Quinoa and other grains were important food sources.
Animal products:
Camelids: Llamas and alpacas were raised for their wool, meat, and as pack animals.
Guinea pigs: These were raised for meat.
Deer: Only Inca royalty hunted deer, using large slingshots and lassos.
Fish: Fish from coastal and river areas was also a significant part of their diet.
Dietary distinctions:
Vegan staples:
The Incas' diet was largely plant-based, with a variety of vegetables, grains, and fruits forming the bulk of their meals.
Meat as supplement:
Meat was consumed less frequently, often from the domesticated animals they raised or hunted.
Royal access to meat:
The consumption of certain game, like deer, was exclusive to the Inca royal family.
Oops!
