Whatever I had hooked it was big, I thought.  I pulled back not too hard on the line, I was using a light rig as I didn't expect to catch anything large, heck, I didn't expect to catch anything.  So when my rod bent and didn't move, of course I thought I had snagged one of the wharf pilings.  I slowly pulled on it so that I didn't break the line, and to my surprise I found I could reel in the line some.  A fish that heavy should be fighting, lord knows what I had hooked.  I dropped the rod and started pulling the line slowly, and soon it was smoothly coming my way.  Then I saw what I had hooked and was as sick as I have ever been.  The body of a fully clothed woman was bobbing in the shallow waves, my hook had caught in her dress.  I know nothing of pathology, but she had been in the water for some time.  The crabs had been at her eyes and I looked no more but called the cops, thank goodness I had phone service.  I le...

  Abandoned Cat Little Tora, 1947. A family finds an abandoned kitten and takes it in.  But one of the children is jealous of the attention shown to the newcomer and runs away.  In 1947 war orphans were everywhere in Japan. Directed by Kenzo Masaoka.   https://youtu.be/Qguk94-zLAo     A dream of domestic bliss. This ends with the family all together as one on a Christmas, decorated tree and everything.  What is conspicuous is the lack of a father.  I guess at this time so many Japanese families had their fathers and sons gone that this cartoon designed to comfort and to empathize with those bereft.  In that regard this is a very sad movie, and very well made. Life is far too marvelous to be squandered in war.   https://misterscribbles.blogspot.com/2020/07/scroll-of-frolicking-animals-live.html   Comments

  The Horned God, or the Sorcerer, Cave of  Les Trois Freres. Ariège, France.   Magdalenian Period, c) 14,000 BCE The original.  Lots of argument over whether those antlers are really there.  Photographs can be deceptive, and researchers can be prone to mistakes.  Therianthropy is the belief that humans can shapeshift into animals. The concept is very much with us today.  Werewolf, Van Helsing, 2004. Some people, of course, have more prosaic interpretations of such paintings. 'The Masterpiece On The Shithouse Wall', Robert Williams.  This is a Coochy Cooty comic, itself the adventures of a dissolute anthropomorphic crab louse. I started reading Mr. Williams at the age of 17.  That's why you are reading a furry blog now. A great example of prehistoric art, and one of the oldest artworks, the Lion-Man was found in 1939 in the Stadel-Höhle im Hohlenstein Cave. It was car...

 The dying Wilbur Whately, The Dunwich Horror by H. P. Lovecraft.  Illustration by the awesome Alberto Breccia. https://misterscribbles.blogspot.com/2025/12/the-dunwich-horror.html   Anthro at it's most imaginative. 

 Netflix presents a dating show where blind dates are hidden under tons of makeup in order for the individuals involved to react only to personality. This is a remake of a British show of the same name. Excellent prosthetics. The Brits. People either love this or hate it. If they used my face to indicate animal nature and mental issues it would be considered ridiculously overdone. I could see wearing this on a 'date', I sure could. Ole!   https://youtu.be/IJO5m6EFL6A      Hey... Andibi!   I know this chick who's just dying to meet you!     But no rabbits.  What the Hell?   Nothing says entertainment like a 6 foot tall rabbit only you can see. Welcome to my world. We're gonna be awesome friends.
