Image Transcription:

[ A man in a brown monk’s habit leans down to pet a friendly orange cat in a bucolic monastic landscape that includes gardens and medieval-looking buildings. The man, who is on the right, leans heavily on a walking stick, his chocolate brown monk’s habit is tied at the waist with a rope. His salt-and-pepper grey hair is cut in a typical modern men’s style rather than a monk’s tonsure. He is smiling in delight as the orange cat to the side props it’s front paws halfway up the walking stick to get closer to the monk’s hand which is cradling the cat’s head and neck, mid-scratch. The ground below them is of mottled green, rather scrubby mixed grasses. Behind the small hill they’re on, we can see a very tidy, rather large vegetable and herb garden stretching into the distance. Behind that, a short stone wall and a large multi-story grey building that is at least over a hundred years old, probably more. Farther beyond still, gentle hills look blue against the horizon, and graceful pine trees stretch towards the sky.]

    Are there monasteries where you can smoke weed and watch star trek after tending to the gardens? Because this looks really nice.

    Interesting to still see someone use two spaces after a period, especially in conjunction with a spell checker (all misspellings (ripe, father) form sensible words)
