Winchester 2007 Limited Edition

Winchester 2007 Limited Edition
Winchester 2007 Limited Edition - Author's Collection

The image shows a Winchester 2007 limited edition wildlife series. It is described as an "Ersatz Scrimshaw Knife Set." Three small knives are included, and all have artwork pertaining to wildlife. Each knife measures, overall, 5 3/4". It's hard to describe the wildlife because I don't take items out of the package (and my eyesight is poor). Therefore, I don't get a clear view. The set that I saw on eBay was selling for $35. The knives come with a presentation box.

Small Antique Bottle

Antique Bottle - Author's Collection

The pictured item is 2 and 3/8" tall. It could be a medicine bottle. It could also be a perfume sample bottle. It is an antique. I found this one in a long abandoned trash dump. I believe it was in a rusty can when I found it. The can was pretty much rotten, but the bottle was okay. I found several items that day under the same conditions.

World Bipolar Day 2026

World Bipolar Day
World Bipolar Day - Author's Picture

I want to call attention to world bipolar day, March 30, 2026. I may call attention to this at several points during the year, because it's important to me. March 30th of every year is World Bipolar Day. It doesn't seem like it's a very well-known day, but bipolar is very real and comes with its own unique circumstances. For me, every day is bipolar day. The picture shows the 11 pills I take every night, from quetiapine to I don't know what. It doesn't show the other 7 that I take during the day. My wife or daughter fills my pill box up every week, because I don't know what I'm supposed to take. My wife deals with my psychiatrist about as much as I do, or more. I've been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, elements of psychosis, and PTSD. It all can be traced back to people and circumstances that I've had to deal with in my life.

Even More Dagon Vibes

Even More Dagon Vibes

The picture shown above once again gives me Dagon vibes. Not the biblical Dagon, but the Lovecraftian creature. The picture source is Meta. The artist is not known to me, but I have traced it back to user StevetheHunterofTri on DeviantArt. Another place identifies the artist as Layrensij Ursa. It appears in several places online, and some entitle it "Dagon."
