Silverback gorilla and family cross the road in the Congo

I like how the dad waits for all of them to cross and he flexes with his sheer brute muscle at the guys in the car in the distance, he is a good dad, the ultimate protector.

Dream Dolphin (ドリームドルフィン): Atmospheric Healing (1996) [Full Album]

Dream Dolphin is a floaty, ethereal journey into a netherworld of emotions by little-known Japanese ambient artist Dream Dolphin. This sounds a bit like a mid-90’s rave opus by Papua New Guinea or Boards of Canada crossed with some throaty and coy Cocteau Twins style singing. Whatever it is, it’s beautiful. Thank you Youtube algorithm you always guide me to the place where beautiful music dwells.

The Korrigans: capricious dwarves living underground in Brittany…

By the always amazing storyteller about Breton history, Bon Repos Gites.

Many stories, from across the region, warn of the dangers that await those traversing the lonely places after dark. The Breton nights belonged to the black dogs and to the korrigans; a race of capricious magical dwarves who emerge from their subterranean domain to haunt the moors and the ancient sites between dusk and dawn. They amuse themselves by disturbing the peace of the countryside and playing tricks on passing travellers, never missing an opportunity to entice them to join in their dance, never suffering them to stop until, overcome by fatigue, they fall dead of exhaustion. Should a man offend them, he might be forced to dance to death or even find himself consigned to an underground dungeon without any hope of deliverance.

Yes, we are the product of our DNA.

But, we’re also the product of countless choices to be kind.
How much active kindness does every child need?
Every community? Your ancestors didn’t survive without willful kindness.
You are the sum of so much love.

“The conversion of forest to farmland across Africa has severely reduced the availability of Chimpanzee habitat. Such habitat loss is especially acute in West Africa, where it is estimated that more than 80% of the region’s original forest cover had been lost by the early 2000s (Kormos et al. 2003) – Read more on Palm Oil Detectives
