My Birthday is Halloween
Hello followers.
http://nporpg.wixsite.com/rimae
It has been quite a long minute since my name has shown on any of your pages/sites/what have you. I've been busy.
Aside from now running an established sugar glider colony, I have at last taken upon me the job of keeper at a wolf sanctuary– only pure wolves, and if I may add, they are stunning creatures to be in close proximity with.
My photography has ended ever since April of '16, when my camera battery charger mysteriously vanished when some friends passed through. Needless to say, I have now acquired an ideal replacement, but I missed all of Spring, Summer, and now most of Autumn
Summer Starts with Something Greater
I've spent the last months creating a non-profit and role play game transitioned on from my, previously created, old renounced Rimée, which many readers will find familiarity in the memories attached and the bonds established while Rimée was open to the public and private. It hasn't been, recently, due to strict editing work and security maintaining the layouts of our old Rimée. We wanted to present something kinder, something more encompassing and involved.
Both of these, and many more stunning qualities were captured in this next generation of role play. It includes mainly my art, and my photo manipulations.
After so long,
Thank you!
Oh where to begin. My life is getting more and more hectic but I'm seeking time to get some artwork and photography done. I have soo many photos to put up, something is always happening when I try to upload. The best things come the last! I'm currently looking for tattoo commissioners, so if anyone knows a good artist, please note me!
Remember, believe in your dreams.
HAPPY FUCKING TWENTY FOURTEEN ~ damn it's already amazing
Splash of Rude Reality
Oi vey, so much has happened since I last made an entry. Hopefully I'll keep from writing a novel.
I traveled across the state to visit the world-renowned Lowry Park who has so graciously provided me with fresh stock, among other things. The trip itself was grim since it followed the death of my step-mother (as you know, many people like to escape when tragedy strikes) but I still managed to see things that I'll never forget. I had quite the talk with ~Frost-Born (https://www.deviantart.com/frost-born) about Pier 60 on the famous Clearwater beach strip. That in itself was a night rivaled by no other. I hope I can revisit the area for just a party weekend, or otherwise just

I have not been this full of thoughts for a long time. Earlier today while at lunch break I surfed DA with my smartphone and started to read this journal. I did not meant to read it fully but I did, and beside too long lunch break my thoughts were filled with wolfs. Not so that my thinking would not be on wolfs often beside this but this time deeper than maybe ever before.
I don't know anything about Topaz clean but sounds like vise succession you have given, If I will ever do phone manipulations Ill probably learn with other tools first.
Now back to wolfs, and I have no idea where to start from. So much to say.
Okay lets say that to most of what you have said I agree and by this way let's skip a lot, but to actually start with future generation who will grow to adult age and will be voting on parliament. I truly hope that our world has that much sense that no member to parliament is chosen from those who wont even study the subject they are about to vote.
I think that it's not wolf roleplay on itself that is wrong but how to world today shows to people living on it. Especially on large cities and on families that don't spend time with their children. Its unfortunate to see so much of mental illness as there seems to be today, when young generations are grown up by "bad" kind of media. Many things on media and on raising child are OK even today and many manage to raise their child well even against all the odds I'm saying here. But I truly think that there should be more common sense on everything. I still do watch child cartoons and TV programs just from curiosity and I feel disgust to what I often see. General example what I often use is that there is so much violence and no one ever get really hurt even while missing head. In many cases it shoots so much over reality that even child understand that things are not like that but I have truly met young boy who hit other one badly and claimed that he didn't know that it will hurt. Nor meant to hurt actually. Other thing that matters a lot are adults and especially our parents, who are greatest and most significant example for life we have. Their generation learned to hate wolfs from child stories and cartoons, not to forget all the horror movies. have you ever seen over reacting mother who protects her child from dog or cat? I have met many who are afraid even horses (though no wonder) It just proves to me how far we have got from reality by living on tight society of our kinds and not seeing live elsewhere beside what we see on movies and net. I remember good example of discussion about local lynx problem. One man claimed to me loudly that its lynx fault that all deer who visited his yard are eaten by lynx. I said to him that deer have legs, remember? Anyways you see what I mean... lack of common sense. I see it even on market at times as I tend to talk and ask things from people. Some (fortunately rare ones) claim that minced meat comes from markets freezer and not from cows. -facepalm. -
That is how I see our modern world and I really think that ignorance and being too much on ones own life is greatest sickness that will affect our understanding of nature around. Seriously.
Then again I think that Indians were doing well with nature as they respected it and lived from it. They didn't try to change everything like modern man but to live on harmony with what nature has to offer.
When thinking of fear that we have to wolfs, there are some really good reasons, and some really stubit ones as you may have already found out. I have studied a lot about this topic called wolf. I have not studied really wolfs itself as from that I can find a lot material with ease. Here where I live, wolfs are still kings of forest among with bears. Way too often wolfs, and wolf problem are on newspapers or at local rumors, since we have those a quite lot indeed at least to what local peoples think about their numbers. My dearest friend here who is old man already has a lot of different materials and access to many kind of sources that I would never dared to dream about. Now according to my and his discussions and his knowledge and what I have seen from his materials I will tell you following, but be noticed, he hates our wolfs here, not wolfs as specie. I will tell you later why.
According to history from church books and knowledge from generation to generation wolfs have been serious problem here on Finland, and it is completely false claim that peoples and politicians claim that wolfs have not killed peoples for hundred year. My friends firm studies reach to century 1800 beginning and from those we can see that especially small child from areas where are not much humans were often stolen and eaten by wolfs. More often dogs and cattle of course. Wolf attacks on especially to peoples during famine happened too since poor peoples often wandered from place to another as beggars. Many died to lack of food and diseases and if not killed by wolfs were at least partly eaten by ones. Then there is that one town where wolf problem run out of control totally. Wolfs numbers got so high that they were apparently lacking food and that times way of traveling was by feet. Literally tens of young child traveling from house to house or to help on fields were attacked, killed and eaten. There is even story of young 3 years old girl who was on field with her mother who was milking cows. Wolf came and picked girl up from neck and started to run with child on its grip. Mother was alerted by this and ran after with no change to arrive to help in time. girl yelled to mother. "Äiti älä itke, ei se satu" This is translated as "Mother don't cry, it doesn't hurt" basically meaning wolf wasn't biting hard. Parents found girls corpse some hours later. Since of this problem they went on largest wolf hunt ever on Finland and managed to kill most of wolfs from that area. Since that this kind of hunting continued few tens of years almost completely making wolfs disappear. Some more proofs of wolfs threats can be found from my villages local museum in form of dog collar. These collars have huge spikes that were meant to injure wolfs maw if it was to bite dogs throat, those apparently worked as those are used even today eastern parts of Finland, to where wolfs come from Russian Siberia.
Then to peoples and old knowledge. I have often heard that peoples here said to child that forest of haunted by bad spirits and other imagined things. I have understanding that wolfs and bears were not talked about, at least often, as those were respected a bit like Indians did.
It is modern worlds curse to have such tales and stories as little red riding hood, that basically turns great forest spirit to something evil and more common. Bear has still that tittle but wolf doesn't. I ques that much of it is since wolf is much more casual and less mighty by appearance. Not much different than dog. Also... wolf and human especially here at north eat and hunt same food sources and are thereby rivals. This is what causes so much hate to wolfs... rivalry between our species. Today there is other problem as humans live everywhere and there are no places for wolfs where humans would not be, and almost no human, I know from here, can accept to live aside with wolfs without rivalry.
Today we face same problem. Wolfs come from east and walk across our backyards, steal dogs and cats, attack cattle, especially sheep. Just months ago wolf was photoed crossing road next to kindergarten with about twenty child playing on yard. There is a lot of hate towards wolfs here but those are protected by law and even worse by European union. Penalty from killing wolf is really high and no one wants to be busted from that crime.
Unfortunately for this creature I have learned to respect and like. Wolfs are poached a lot on silence. That you who are reading this could have some understanding. During my lifetime, around where I live I have heard many times of wolf kills and killing. (I have even been taught how to kill a wolf, not so that I would ever do that but I find it better to know than not to know, same with wolf kills.) I think that I have heard of... about. 5-7 plus 3 kills from last winter that were busted by police. (Hunter who leaked plans of this poaching committed suicide days after unsuccessful hunt.) Here is link to case - yeswehunt.eu/de/main-navigatio…
Oh right and tear from this fact. I lived my childhood on stables. One day hunters came (apparently by my mothers request) and they found wolf den from about 500 meters of where I live. I don't know what happened to those wolfs I have later on often asked things from these matters and well... apparently many of wolfs have had collars. Though usual way to get rid of collars at that time was to trow those to top of trucks that had Russian register.
Government thinks we have about 200-300 wolfs. Hunters claim and say that its closer to 1000-2000. To this day... I'm not sure witch one lies more, but I'm certain that wolf won't die to extinction, it is just that persistent specie and will get great respect from me since of that.
