On this day, August 22 in 1920, the great American science fiction writer Ray Bradburywas born just over the Wisconsin border in
Waukegan, Illinois. He would go on to become what The New York Times called “the writer most responsible for bringing modern science fiction into the literary mainstream,“ with such classics as
The Martian Chronicles (1950), The Illustrated Man (1951), and
Fahrenheit 451 (1953). He died in 2012 at the venerable age of 91.
To memorialize Ray Bradbury’s birth, we present some images from a 1983 collection of stories and poems related to the author’s earliest childhood and life-long fascination with dinosaurs in Dinosaur Tales, published by Bantam Books. The collection includes the short stories "Besides A Dinosaur, Whatta Ya Wanna Be When You Grow Up?” (1983), ”The Fog Horn“ (1951), "Tyrannosaurus Rex,” originally published as “The Prehistoric Producer” (1962), Bradbury’s classic time-travel, “butterfly effect” story “A Sound of Thunder” (1952), and a new poetic collaboration with the legendary cartoonist Gahan Wilson, “What If I Said: The Dinosaur’s Not Dead?” Other illustrations in this book are by William Stout, Steranko, Moebius, Overton Loyd, Kenneth Smith and David Wiesner.

😴Does Monday have you feeling like this pygmy anteater (Cyclopes didactylus)?
This tiny arboreal critter is the world’s smallest anteater and only grows about 17.7 inches (45 centimeters) in length, much of it tail. It lives in the Amazon rainforest and is seldom seen because it’s nocturnal and spends most of its time in the canopy. Its ideal home is a ceiba tree because the tree’s seed pods are similar in appearance to the anteater’s own silky fur—which helps camouflage it from predators like the Harpy Eagle and Spectacled Owl.
Idk where you’re getting those numbers. It’s predicted that up to a one quarter to a third of the country could be underwater by the end of monsoon season.
Nearly 500k homes have been destroyed and as of this article published this morning, August 29th, more than 3.1 million have been displaced.
Here are some aid organizations you can donate to (don’t worry, I looked into them and checked Charity Navigator and stuff). You can also call on your country’s government to provide aid and if you live in a country participating in the IMF you can urge them to send IMF aid too https://www.imf.org/en/Countries
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
