Game on...on the radio...pregames, Angels and Dodgers...Rays at Dodgers, Angels at Diamondbacks...there's a scene from movie The Godfather where a Don lifts a tiny coffee cup, and while doing, lifts up his pinkie finger...I dont dote over gangster movies, but this scene, an exchange, a deal, an extortion payment, is a pause...much seen scene...artists of the deal!...so, so, I went snarkie, as I do, and dropped in the comments..."Pinkie Up!"...🍿...dont do this, drop snarks in the comments!...a good snark diverts...this one to the girl group, Katseye.

✨️Pinky Up" by the girl group KATSEYE is a hard-charging, techno-pop track that has quickly become a staple in the rave community, sampling elements from classic 90s dance anthems like DJ Da Hool's "Meet Her at the Love Parade".
🎶so, so, I found "Meet Her..."...aand, looked at old rave videos from Germany...thought to snark they are copy cating the TechnoViking...the loss of quality of these old clips is charming...90s not that long ago...wait...30 some years...30 back from 1960 was black and white, almost silent films!...anyway, I found the story of Meet Her At The Love Parade, which indeed was anthem of the Love Parades!...

✨️Celebration of Vitality and the Human Form
Much like the famous "Techno Viking" viral phenomenon, a bare chest can symbolize raw vitality, confidence, and the raw power of human rhythm. For many men, it is a joyful celebration of health, strength, and stamina required to endure a grueling physical "marathon" of dancing.
🎶an OTI...Angels 1-Diamondbacks 2...see what Dodgers up to...

🎶hmmph...rave dancers dance like shuffle dancers who cant shuffle...rave has symbols, I'm guessing...
✨️why do rave dancers take their shirts off?
🎶lost some text...save being iffy...asked AI too why egyptian boys hold their finger to their mouth in the art-young Horus...
✨️why egyptian boys hold their finger to their mouth in the art-young Horus?
🎶welp, an attribute of breast feeding, thumb sucking...well, wait, is that a "residue of the day" Freud thing?
✨️freudian term for thumb sucking
✨️freudian residuals meaning
Residual Fixations in Personality
What they are: Freud proposed that during childhood development, a child goes through psychosexual stages (e.g., oral, anal, phallic). If a child experiences severe frustration or overindulgence at any stage,
✨️Freud's comments on ancient egyptian fixations
Freud drew heavily on the work of philologist Karl Abel, who studied ancient Egyptian "primal words". Abel discovered that in ancient Egyptian language, a single word could denote both an idea and its exact opposite (e.g., strong and weak). Freud incorporated this concept into his own theories of the unconscious, noting that dreams similarily operate without logic, freely representing elements via their "wishful contraries"
🎶Freud was into Egypt...they all were...try this again:
✨️Psychology of ancient egypt's fixations
🎶Psychology has never been able to dance...fixation I had in mind, is millions of mummified dogs in repurposed first dynasty tombs at Abydos...lost my radio games...two down, Trout up...oh, earlier at bat, home run...
✨️millions of mummified dogs in repurposed first dynasty tombs at Abydos
🎶Eight million at Saqqara...I thinks that's at Qena Bend too(nope)...bottom of seventh...Angels 2-Diamondbacks 2...Abydos dogs have my focus, the trail there into the Western Mountains has rock art with hunting dogs, with leashes...I'm fixated on the "leash"...the rope...simple twist of two strands...Egypt art is full of fixations...over time and distance...homerun...Angels 2-Diamondbacks 3...
✨️Egyptian flax hieroglyph
In ancient Egypt, flax was the cornerstone of the textile industry, primarily used to produce linen. It was also spun and spliced into lamp wicks. Cultivated along the fertile Nile River, this plant provided the cool, lightweight fabric worn by both royalty and commoners. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
The concept appears across a few different disciplines:
• Textile Production: Surviving textiles from ~ 3500 to ~ 600 BC show that Egyptians used a "spliced and twisted" method to connect flax fibers and spin them into durable linen thread. [1]Hieroglyphs: The twisted flax symbol (\(\mathbb{V29}\)) represents the uniliteral phonogram "h" (often used for lamp wicks). [1, 2, 3]Science: In biochemistry, "Twister ribozymes" get their name because their 3D structure strongly resembles this ancient Egyptian twisted flax hieroglyph.
🎶top of eighth...Angels 2-Diamondbacks 4..."twister ribozymes" a curio!...
✨️twister ribozymes
🧐Researchers were inspired to name the newly found twister motif due to its resemblance to the Egyptian hieroglyph 'twisted flax'.[1]

🎶researchers have "acuities" for random things!...the dog leash is side by side with things like the mooring rope, pinioning prisoners, partridges, and the red sash...I mean, its a "tool" like fire, or the wheel...one of those baubles around our cradle, earliest technology...boats have cradles...lost text again...looked up boat cradles...
✨️The Abydos Boat Graves: Dating to the 1st Dynasty, these 14 mud-brick boat graves are some of the earliest examples of boat cradles. The surrounding mud-brick architecture was constructed to exactly contour the shape of the boats' hulls

✨️The Sa (𓋸) is the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol and amulet for protection. The loop resembles a tied papyrus or cloth leash (collar/loop). It is tied around the necks of deities and sacred animals, representing protection and a "lifesaver" meant to ward off evil. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Because of the physical shape, it is widely considered the precursor or equivalent of the leash in ancient Egyptian art and religion. [1, 2]
The symbol is heavily featured in contexts involving:
• The Afterlife: Often depicted worn by Anubis or tied onto mummies to protect the deceased on their journey.Sacred Pets & Deities: Associated with the Taweret and Bes (deities of childbirth and protection). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

✨️In ancient Egyptian astronomy, "mooring ropes" refers to the celestial cords or tethers that bound constellations to the sky. These ropes represent a brilliant intersection between the Nile’s physical geography, practical engineering, and their spiritual mapping of the heavens. [1, 2, 3]
The Stargazing Tools: Ropes and Sights
Egyptian astronomers and architects did not have telescopes; instead, they relied on carefully measured ropes and simple sighting instruments: [1]
• The Merkhet: An L-shaped sighting bar with a suspended plumb-line.The Bay: A palm branch with a sight-slit held up to the eye.Measuring Cords: Palm fiber ropes used by "rope-stretchers" to lay out astronomically precise temple axes and pyramid foundations. [1, 2, 3]
The "Stretching of the Cord" Ceremony
Before any major monument or temple was built, the pharaoh and priests performed the "stretching of the cord" ritual. [1, 2, 3]
• The Process: They used calibrated mooring ropes to stretch a perfectly straight line between poles. [1]The Goal: They used this line to align the building's axis with circumpolar stars (such as those in the Big Dipper) to perfectly align with true north. [1, 2]The Meaning: This tethered the physical, earthly world to the eternal, unchanging realms of the night sky, helping to maintain Ma'at (cosmic order). [1, 2]
Celestial Mooring Ropes in Mythology
In Egyptian astronomical texts and tomb ceilings, certain constellations were visually depicted as being physically tied down: [1]
• The Bull's Leg (Meskhetyu): This constellation, corresponding to the Big Dipper, was often depicted in ceiling diagrams as a bull being tethered to a mooring post driven into the ground by the goddess Tawaret. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]The Concept: This "mooring" illustrated the orbit of the northern circumpolar stars, which never set and were thought to be "tethered" as they rotated around the celestial pole. [1, 2, 3]
