@bluemeridian.bsky.social I feel like you and I are members of a very short list who are, in fact, disappointed by the lack of this description

Excerpt from Anne Leckie’s Radiant Star: I greatly fear that if I spent the next paragraphs detailing the operation of Ooioiaa's water treatment and reclamation facility (or, more accurately, facilities
—there were of course three separate systems, one for each precinct), you would find it tedious. And even if you, specifically, were to say to me, "But no! I am fascinated by water treatment systems and would in fact appreciate the information," I would strongly suspect that you were something of an outlier.
I will, therefore, not describe Ooioiaa's water treatment facilities in detail. Suffice to say…

😹 people have been weird about animals and aesthetics since day one Here is a bonus 1800s poodle with a rare double butt ruffle

Brown and white poodle in a lion cut. Clean face with mustache, short but fluffy head and ears, the jacket is cut at a steep angle fluff-wise down the shoulder but is straight at the ribs. The bracelets in front are period typical squares but the hock bracelets are more like a decorative lace fringe? The butt stripe seems to have reached its final form in an incredible double spiral

I do want to do the leg stripe, because it was popular for 100 years and then in the late 30s morphed into a sedate version of the bobble pants seen here (The naked butt version only became really popular in the 1980s)

Drawing from page 204 of Poodle Clipping and Grooming, 2001, third ed. Hand drawn poodle in an English Saddle clip. The leg bracelets and bobbles are extremely round, the head hair is more similar to Dolly Parton circa 1987 than anything else

I had to shave Bébé to the skin at about a month ago and now I’m wondering how close to a historically correct cut I can give him with one inch of hair When I say historically accurate I mean

Hand drawn picture of a poodle from 1900. It has a weird bristly mustache only on the corner of its lips. It has a short fluffy topknot and ears, and a jacket that stops right behind its elbows, but goes down almost to the ankle bracelets at an angle. I can’t tell if the hip puffs are circles or diamonds, but it has two separate poms on an undocked tail. The weird hip stripe so popular in the early 1800s starts at the back of the pelvis and then runs down the leg before swirling around the knee. The bracelets are in a square fan, but around the hock and front ankle only

OK, this is a diagram from the American Book of the Dog published in 1891. It has a hand drawn diagram of a poodle pinned out like a dead butterfly. The poodle has a goatee, a mustache, eyebrows, weird triangle bracelets on elbows and ankles diamonds over his hip bones, a fleur de lis situation over the ass and two fans on its tail

Once again thinking about 1950s refrigerators They came in colors! You could *switch out* the colors yourself!Built-in rotating shelves, butter softening cupboards, and basically every organization item sold at the Container Store Why did we stray so far from the light 😔

Today’s research: back to the history of poodle haircuts. I’ve determined they lost this funky leg stripe about 1910

Diagram from The American Book of the Dog (1870) showing a poodle clip. Similar to a modern MCC, but with the addition of a mustache, beard, eyebrows, a poof around the base of the tail, and a hind leg stripe that looks like a garter belt around the hip beans

I saw about a hundred of these flowers yesterday and could only think about the flower in SVSS

Trillium ovatum towards the end of its growth cycle - you can see the green seed pod forming in the center of the red-purple petals

Trillium’s Growth Cycle

Germination: it takes approximately two years for a seed to sprout
Juvenile Stage: The plant emerges with one leaf for several years
Maturity: The first bloom can take between 7-18 years to develop
Lifespan: Plants can live beyond 70 years
Dormancy: Mature plants can enter a dormant phase, not growing or blooming for a season or two.
