Video game I saw in a dream. It was in this low poly style like an older video game. You play as this character I think was meant to be a lamb, or maybe a weird mix of a lamb a mouse and a rabbit, (while not really looking like any of those things) and you’re running away from a wolf. Your objective is to last as long as possible before the wolf catches and eats you.
The house you’re running in is endless and bizarrely put together like most building interiors in dreams are (like the infinite toilet dream dimension on Reddit lol) the layout of the house is pretty detailed, you can stop and hide in places like closets or bins while the wolf looks for you, you can go up and down stairs and into rooms etc.
You never actually know where the wolf is or how close it is to you until it appears in your line of sight, it makes no noise and the game gives you no way of knowing where it is, and it’s pretty unpredictable it doesnt move at a consistent pace. When the wolf catches you there’s an animation showing it eating your character

Humans are so cute. They think they can outsmart birds. They place nasty metal spikes on rooftops and ledges to prevent birds from nesting there.
It’s a classic human trick known in urban design as “evil architecture”: designing a place in a way that’s meant to deter others. Think of the city benches you see segmented by bars to stop homeless people sleeping there.
But birds are genius rebels. Not only are they undeterred by evil architecture, they actually use it to their advantage, according to a new Dutch study published in the journal Deinsea.
Crows and magpies, it turns out, are learning to rip strips of anti-bird spikes off of buildings and use them to build their nests. It’s an incredible addition to the growing body of evidence about the intelligence of birds, so wrongly maligned as stupid that “bird-brained” is still commonly used as an insult...
Magpies also use anti-bird spikes for their nests. In 2021, a hospital patient in Antwerp, Belgium, looked out the window and noticed a huge magpie’s nest in a tree in the courtyard. Biologist Auke-Florian Hiemstra of Leiden-based Naturalis Biodiversity Center, one of the study’s authors, went to collect the nest and found that it was made out of 50 meters of anti-bird strips, containing no fewer than 1,500 metal spikes.
Hiemstra describes the magpie nest as “an impregnable fortress.”

Pictured: A huge magpie nest made out of 1,500 metal spikes.
Magpies are known to build roofs over their nests to prevent other birds from stealing their eggs and young. Usually, they scrounge around in nature for thorny plants or spiky branches to form the roof. But city birds don’t need to search for the perfect branch — they can just use the anti-bird spikes that humans have so kindly put at their disposal.
“The magpies appear to be using the pins exactly the same way we do: to keep other birds away from their nest,” Hiemstra said.
Another urban magpie nest, this one from Scotland, really shows off the roof-building tactic:
Tumblr media
Pictured: A nest from Scotland shows how urban magpies are using anti-bird spikes to construct a roof meant to protect their young and eggs from predators.
Birds had already been spotted using upward-pointing anti-bird spikes as foundations for nests. In 2016, the so-called Parkdale Pigeon became Twitter-famous for refusing to give up when humans removed her first nest and installed spikes on her chosen nesting site, the top of an LCD monitor on a subway platform in Melbourne. The avian architect rebelled and built an even better home there, using the spikes as a foundation to hold her nest more securely in place.
...Hiemstra’s study is the first to show that birds, adapting to city life, are learning to seek out and use our anti-bird spikes as their nesting material. Pretty badass, right?
The genius of birds — and other animals we underestimate
It’s a well-established fact that many bird species are highly intelligent. Members of the corvid family, which includes crows and magpies, are especially renowned for their smarts. Crows can solve complex puzzles, while magpies can pass the “mirror test” — the classic test that scientists use to determine if a species is self-aware.
Studies show that some birds have evolved cognitive skills similar to our own: They have amazing memories, remembering for months the thousands of different hiding places where they’ve stashed seeds, and they use their own experiences to predict the behavior of other birds, suggesting they’ve got some theory of mind.
And, as author Jennifer Ackerman details in The Genius of Birds, birds are brilliant at using tools. Black palm cockatoos use twigs as drumsticks, tapping out a beat on a tree trunk to get a female’s attention. Jays use sticks as spears to attack other birds...
Birds have also been known to use human tools to their advantage. When carrion crows want to crack a walnut, for example, they position the nut on a busy road, wait for a passing car to crush the shell, then swoop down to collect the nut and eat it. This behavior has been recorded several times in Japanese crows.
But what’s unique about Hiemstra’s study is that it shows birds using human tools, specifically designed to thwart birds’ plans, in order to thwart our plans instead. We humans try to keep birds away with spikes, and the birds — ingenious rebels that they are — retort: Thanks, humans!

Sometimes, you just need a hug (whether you realize it or not)
If you’ve seen Stargate Atlantis, you may recognize this scene. I just had to draw it with Quinlan and Obi-wan. It was too perfect.

Synthesizers – about little squirrel and good little animals
Tumblr media
So, I have in my pack of music instruments – midi keyboard for 49 keys. Blue color. Cool thing. It is AxelVox Key49j. And I doing music exercises with this music instrument. I am doing exercises with no connected instrument. So, in spring, I can say, it was started a new step for me. One more try. New attempt.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know seven chords. One gamma. And I play three compositions from a textbook with exercises. And I am doing exercises with book “In music with joy”. So, it is also a drawn a little sun.
Tumblr media
The best thing I can do it is little song – “squirrel”. And, also, it is “Ladushki” (hands something) and “Ice Mountain”. So, these three things I play. I train left and right hand separately. So, together I do no played it yet. So, I can say, first step is made towards to songs about little songs about good and kind animals!
Tumblr media
That’s for sure! Little songs about good and kind animals. My theme. So, it will be some little animals there. So, really, something like it can be, like some little songs like composition little song – “Squirrel”, as it can be! But, for now, only melodies, it is, I think, it will be melodies now.  A skill to speak and sing – it is standalone skill. It is a little thing about a step. A first step, that was made.
Tumblr media
Imagine for yourself, for example a duckling. Which can run around the green grass. About what music he can run? And later to jump into the river or lake. And paws he moves, he moves with paws, so funny into the water. And runs all over the water, or, even, swim. So, this is example. So, in form of melodies. Not a big length. Not hard.
Tumblr media
And more, yellow chickens are running the grass. They have so big fun there. In a sunny day. Goose is running around a small lake. He spread his wings. He has a red beacon. Such a reddish. Little mouses are sitting somewhere in the fields, they are in their little house. Mole is digging a holes and doing plants of the trees. So, lots of music themes!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So it will be, as idea, funny melodies. About good and kind little animals. My friends. Which I can see soon. When I will go to a country house. In a grass, there are grasshoppers, they are good musicians. And also, a frogs are excellent singers. They are doing quak quak sounds very good. Maybe, I can meet there someone else. And all of these under the little sun. In a green grass. It is beautiful!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Such artistic idea and theme. And even more – synthesizer – it is about lots of sounds onboard. Very different electronic music. From more straight and raw up to more delicious and elegance. From hard drive to melody beauty. Retro wave, synthesizers music, style of 80s rhythms and melodies. With different plugins. Genres of electronic music – there are lots of them. So, synthesizers – it is unlimited way to do music! With very different sounds and ideas! Melodies and rhymes!

One of Damian’s pets passes. Instead of moving on it’s a Cujo situation.
Damian’s animal does not move on. Instead attacks the ghost king to get back to Damian by becoming king. The animal thinks its the only way to get back to Damian. So Danny now had a feral animal constantly attacking him.
Danny just has gotten used to the attacks. One day sam is complaining about a gala she’s being forced to. She shows tucker and Danny pictures of the Wayne’s.
Just in time for the attacker to see the picture and start hitting the picture. It clicks for sam what’s going on.
Sam has the brain cells.
Danny now brings the ghost animal to Damian. Telling him that his pet is feral, then proceeds to explain how to care for an ecto-pet. Also a supply of ecto supplements to add to the pets food.
