#Cuba said on Thursday that #Russian warships would arrive in #Havana next week, but that the four navy ships carried no nuclear weapons and did not present a threat to the region.

The announcement out of Cuba comes one day after a U.S. official told reporters that Russia had plans to send combat vessels into the Caribbean region, including to allies Cuba and #Venezuela, to conduct naval exercises.

"'A great sadness': Venezuela is first Andean country to lose of all its glaciers
Scientists explain the loss of the Humboldt Glacier, the last in the Sierra Nevada, which they believe makes the South American country the first in modern history to lose all its glaciers. "

Le Grand Leader du avait promis d'organiser des élections non truquées lors de négociations à La Barbade qui avaient permis de lever les sanctions. Hélas, les premiers sondages ne lui ont pas permis de tenir parole, l'opposante Maria Corina Machado comme cela se pratique à a vu sa candidature refusée et les internements des opposants se sont multipliés.

Les sanctions sont rétablies

So apparently it's perfectly fine for the #US to spike the price of #oil ahead of an #election when it's over whether or not #Venezuela's #elections are fair, but it's not okay for #Ukraine to do so via refinery attacks in order to stopping the invasion and ethnic cleansing of #Europe's eastern flank. :Þ

Elections are coming up in Venezuela, and there's a lot of people registering to vote. A lot of young people for whom this will be their first time voting.

This is what the line to register in one center in my city looks like.

Dealing with a dictatorial state is suffering a long series of indignities, small and large, in every aspect of your life.

kupaye,

Hi there, friends of the fediverse. I've been busy and haven't been able to stick around, but I want to share w/ you something I'm working working on these days w/ the Ye'kuana people in (, , , , , , relationship w/ non-humans, -speaking ). Probably will write something on my blog about it later, but in any case here I share with you some of the beautiful motifs of the Ye'kuana trays & their animal references.

kupaye,

The generic name of these trays is wája, many things could be said about them.They're a cultural element derived from a deep capacity for contemplation of non-human . This is the pattern for kwekwe, the native name of Dendrobates leucomelas (I put below a photo I took), also called in Spanish arrowhead little (“punta de flecha”), since it's used as an ingredient in the poison for hunting. Some alternative names may also be kawau, sinyawe and tubudu, which are other frogs.

Today's post is the story of a stunning artistic and acoustical triumph from Caracas, Venezuela. It is also a cautionary tale of what happens when community-based funding dries up due to government ideology and political unrest. Read and learn.

Johnson on manoeuvres in the swamps

Apparently he is not only ‘representing’ Britain in , but he is being paid by a hedge fund. He is laughing at and Cameron and showing his arse to the British people.

This sums up the corrupt nature of British politics and the deep shite that the (and before them ) parties have ‘led’ the UK into.

These Venezuelan harpists are fire. Especially the first guy, Arquimedes Correa Mendoza. I follow and love him.

I actually had zero interest in the harp until I heard him. It’s not what you might expect. It’s SO good! 🔥❤️

Joropo. Music from the Venezuelan Savana mostly. These are the people who work with cattle and the land. Most of the time it’s a “contrapunteo” like a rap battle with improvisation. There is nothing like a barbecue, joropo, and a local town party in the Savana at sunset.

But if Venezuela thinks they can follow the lead of Putin and invade, it is a dealbreaker. They will become a pariah state just like . https://caribbean.loopnews.com/content/guyana-says-venezuelas-military-move-again-near-joint-border

TraRay,

2024 Reintroduction

Hi! I'm Traci. My life story is a winding tale that has brought me here to La Azulita, in the mountainous state of Merida in western . I've been living here, working here, and raising my children here since 2012. I'm originally from Northern (USA) and proudly so.

My life partner Michael and I live on a 13 hectare farm in the foothills of the Andes (apx 1300mts), overlooking the Sur de Lago region and Lake Maracaibo. We are passionate about , , and everything. We are currently in the process of reforesting the majority of our property with , , and countless other productive trees. We also raise a variety of animals on the farm, including a small herd of dairy and beef cows, pigs, and a perennial flock of chickens. Michael does the vast majority of heavy lifting, though I am the dedicated milker of cows and cheesemaker. Other than that, I help where I can and document our progress when I have the chance.

Aside from being a "farmer's wife," I am a full time content writer for 16personalities.com. When inspired, I blog about what we're doing here on the farm, digging a little deeper into the philosophies that guide us, our story, strategies, and experiences here in Venezuela.

Other personal interests include and , audiobooks, holistic everything, human biology and the human condition in general, languages, and .

I'm not always super active on social media, but I certainly enjoy checking in with the rest of the world through these virtual spaces, so let's connect!

Also, I really like .

Fat Leonard, the man who corrupted the US Navy to the point that he could tell them where to send their ships, escaped to Venezuela. This, I said at the time, was a very risky move, as Maduro was going to try to trade him for Alex Saab.

Yes, I said that on Oct 1 2022: https://twitter.com/guacamayan/status/1576288290411614209

And here we are. Fat Leonard -- plus a bunch more Americans -- in exchange for Alex Saab.

Biden got a good deal. The Americans are coming home.

The US State Dept statement is sort of funny: "The United States welcomes the release today of all six wrongfully detained U.S. nationals from Venezuela — Joseph Cristella, Eyvin Hernandez, Jerrel Kenemore, Savoi Wright, and two individuals who wish to remain private — as well as the release of four additional U.S. nationals."

So they recognize that 4 of the US nationals were detained in a manner other than "wrongly"

Probably includes the guys who invaded the country
