As a change of pace from my usual anti-political rantings, I thought for fun I would share a few pictures I took of my favorite “natural wonder.” Photography is one of many things that I wish I had more time for (along with writing music, writing stories, building things, etc.). But right now, doing whatever I can to help end the most dangerous superstition seems far more important than tinkering in fun hobbies.
(If you don’t know me, and don’t know what I mean by “the most dangerous superstition,” you definitely need to read this book: http://www.larkenrose.com/store/books/2019-the-most-dangerous-superstition.html)
Amanda, who goes by the “Dragon Anarchist” on Steemit (https://steemit.com/@dragonanarchist), in addition to being a severe hottie (to quote Strongbad), and my sweetie-pie (to get all mushy), also has a great singing voice. With any luck, in the not-too-distant future we may be sharing on Steemit some of the music we’ve created together.
In fact, some day soon we hope to perform music together at various pro-freedom type events. Though even most of those who know us probably aren’t aware of this, Amanda and I have both performed in different bands in the past—in the very distant past, in my case—her singing, and me playing keyboards.
Mind you, we’ve never performed in the same band before. (In fact, I think the last time I was in a band, Amanda was probably about seven.) Nonetheless, I’m looking forward to being co-composer and back-up band for Amanda when she becomes a rock star. And I’m only half joking about the “rock star” part.
It’s not exactly unusual in the mainstream music scene to find a combination of a pretty face and a pretty voice (though I may be slightly biased in favor of Amanda’s face and voice). However, it’s a lot less common to also find substance, intelligence, and a worthwhile message in the music. I’m also rather partial to music which has more depth and complexity to it than the cookie-cutter, simplistic, plastic “hits” which the record labels like to mass produce.
Anyway, that’s enough of a diversion for now. Time to get back to the important stuff. Incidentally, whatever money I make from this Steemit article, I will be giving to my sweetie, for letting me shoot her repeatedly. (With a camera, I mean.)
BEAUTIFUL
I UP Vote Hot Chicks. In no way am I associated with the Harvey Weinstein Crowd.....
Upvoted and attempting to resteem despite Steemit being buggy today. I got close with @dragonanarchist last year at Anarchapulco and was delighted to find there's an interesting mind behind the pretty face :)
I'm not one for link drops but this one's relevant as it's about the lady we're talking about here. For anyone that doesn't already know, Amanda is the tarantula whisperer.....https://steemit.com/life/@lily-da-vine/dragonanarchist-schools-lily-da-vine-on-tarantulas-plus-another-sighting
Nice to see you doing for yourself and own pleasure. Well profiled snaps. Would be great to hear some of your music. Nice to see a different side of Larken :)
hi you gorgeous beauty :)
Well she's a fine one alright! and comes with a cool name too! @dragonanarchist
I hope she can resist the temptation from the dark side (Feminism) to use the State against you. She'll be a rare one indeed if she can. Good Luck.

What a weird thing to say.
Feminism has no logical standing (though an understandable emotion-founded undergirding), and has never, nor will ever be a 'temptation'.
I've also been state married before, using paper permission slips, and then I was also in a stateless marriage before Larken and I fell in love, already.
I've never been the type to use force against anyone, and even when my ex husband was life-threatening... I didn't use the state to even defend myself (on principle alone).
Just because someone is a woman doesn't mean they want anything to do with feminism, or that it's a temptation.
My first state marriage, to the man who I had my son with, was undone amicably, and I told him not to worry about paying me child support, since I knew he would do what he could for his son anyway.
Women are not necessarily into using the state. You should get out more and meet better ones. :)
@dragonanarchist They are few are far between. Feminism has been used like racism to divide and conquer those who, in fact, believe in the more fundamental, but sometimes it appears, harder to discern, value of freedom. Women need to become more supportive of men and have the strength to stand up to the crippling, guilt based ideologies that are being used against us all. Not by acting like men, but by acting like women; caring, supportive and such that you make freedom something worth fighting for. You are one fine example, and, increasingly, there are now others
What a awesome video.
Oh I'm a woman ;)
We need to get the violence out of it, all violence including, state violence
I have no problem with women using violence to protect themselves without recourse to the State. For example, Pepper spray would help clear up when 'no, means no' ...
I have no problem with men using violence to protect themselves.
In fact i have no problem with anybody in this whole wide world protecting themselves against those who initiate violence.
Believe it or not in the netherlands you would get extorted, kidnapped, gaged or killed if you have pepperspray if you don't submit to the initiators of violence.
edit; I read my initial reply and I see now that its not clear that I meant that initiatory violence needs to be stopped. You are correct defensive use of force/violence is always justified what else would otherwise stop the aggressor. Be it a tyrant, a violent spouse, a bully etc.
If you'd like some string backing tracks for your songs, all you gotta do is let me know! I'd be very excited to supply you with extra tracks to enrich the textures. I'm a big fan, so reach out to me anytime.

I haven't tried bird shot, but when I fired 00 buck or slugs from my pistol grip shotgun (Winchester 1300 12 gauge) without a front grip, it flew up out of my front hand. I'm a big, strong guy, but I couldn't hold onto the front.
A front pistol grip fixed that problem, and introduced a new one. Lock that front elbow while firing, or risk hitting yourself in the mouth with the back grip.
Wonderful post @larkenrose! Because it features 2 or more of the beautiful humans from The Tribe, it has been re-steemed by our communal account: @tribesteemup!
She is indeed very beautiful:)
Hmm. Did not know you had a sweetie, thought you had a wife.
Nice pictures and all, but I'd like to see a picture of her 3 shot group at 100 yards!
