This is a lovely example of a dog inviting another to play. Note the pricked up ears, the relaxed brow, body is erect but also relaxed, plus the jaunty tail. This is a happy, relaxed & full dog. The hops get progressively shorter as the husky gets nearer, and they never actually get up into the other dogβs space. The invitation is respectful.
The other dog is also giving good signals, similarly erect-but-relaxed stance with pricked up ears and waving tail. But the husky knows this canβt be assumed to be a resounding βyesβ, itβs just an absence of a βnoβ. The husky waits for a clear βyesβ, and the shepherd accepts the invitation and is the one to actually initiate play, with that front right paw.
Beautifully civilised interaction, with mutual respect on both sides. Wish more humans knew how to do this, too.

So a while back I won a cheap eBay auction listing for a collection of love letters from the first world war.
They arrived today, and...the listing was WAY more than I expected for the price I won it for. There's over 100, and they're not just from WWI, but from 1906 (earliest I've found so far) through to 1915.
Charlie writes to his girlfriend, Gertrude. This is the most beautiful, lovesick stuff I've ever read. He sends her so many letters, sometimes twice a day, and lots of poems. He seems to have been an artist, as he talks a lot about small exhibitions of his stuff, and included a flyer for one. He also talks about how her parents don't approve of them and how he's desperately awaiting the day they'll be married.
I haven't found the latest of the letters, but the fact it's up until 1915 and then stops...doesn't give me hope for a happy ending.
This man continuously refers to his precious beloved Gertie as his queen and goddess, and whilst most of it is sickly sweet, there's some raunchy stuff too, with him talking about how he can't wait until they have a little house together and can 'please each other all day'...
There's. So many.
I'm going to put them in order by date, read them through, and then maybe even transcribe them so we can find out a bit about Charlie and Gertie's love story.
This man was absolutely lost in the sauce
Y'all he writes about sending her pressed poppies and postcards for her collection πππ
111 years after Charlie got his dick touched in 1910, I decided to tell you all about it. Sorry Charlie.
Some more finds:
And some CODE!!!
Also all this is poems:
UHHHHH...πππ
This has a lot of notes so I need everyone to know:

this is so cute. I love the butcher chatting away and the cat responding, him pulling out a package of meat and showing it, just like heβs dealing with any customer.Β

my friend Alicia made this video to show you the correct way to pronounce "axolotl"! it's a Nahuatl word that gets mispronounced so often, often for puns right here on tumblr dot com, so I wanted to share this with you all because it's important to respect Indigenous languages. you can find her artwork here!
