I have a love and boredom relation with baroque. Either I find it perhaps one of the most beautiful and subtle genre of music ever existed, or I find it extremely boring lost in trills and uninspired melodies...

There, I have discovered one of those I put on the master level with Bach and Vivaldi.

Many thanks for the highlight on this artist that I should explore:

I LOVE THIS PIECE !

The CEO of Exxon just said "we've waited too long" to tackle climate change. He blames "society" and "activists".

Yes, Exxon. Yes, Exxon. Yes, Exxon: the corporation that for decades has been spending millions to slow progress on climate change, despite its own research showing the problem was urgent.

He said:

"We've waited too long to open the aperture on the solution sets in terms of what we need, as a society, to start reducing emissions.... Frankly, society, and the activist — the dominant voice in this discussion — has tried to exclude the industry that has the most capacity and the highest potential for helping with some of the technologies."

What is this — some sort of dark, twisted joke?

Great apes cousin are really funny...

They pretend to be pure angels so as to apply death penalty on others of their choice, and cherry on the cake, if possible which a pinch of cruelty

@Erebus_Amauro ; there are ABUNDANT proofs of cannibalism all along the homo sapiens ancestry, dating back 15000 years in Europe, up to Neanderthals cousin, Erectus, and Australopitecus

After being impaled: do you want the liver or the heart of your "bastards" cousins raw?

On this day ( ) 21 years ago U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell presented a model vial of anthrax to the United Nations Security Council accusing Iraq of a chemical weapons and weapons of mass destruction (WMD) program. This was later found out to be a complete lie and the own investigation and intelligence of the United States did not support this claim nor many others the George Bush administration at the time made. Despite all this, these very lies lead to and justified the Iraq War (second Gulf war).

This war resulted in the violent deaths of 210,519 civilians, over 300.000 people if you include “combatants”. These are only the number of people who died directly from a bullet being put in their head, the number of casualties due to the fallout of this war, meaning those who died whilst fleeing, died due to lack of access to medicine or food and water, are not even included in that number. The total number of civilian deaths caused by this war is estimated to be in the millions. These numbers had to be leaked because the U.S. government themselves said:

“We don't do body counts”

​- General Tommy Franks

The leaker of these stats was WikiLeaks :wikileaks: under the leadership of Julian Assange, who since has been forced to live in exile, hide, and currently, this very day, is under trial by the UK High Court most likely resulting in being extradited to the United States where he will not receive a fair trial, or only as fair as John McAfee got or Edward Snowden will get. Silenced, killed, buried, kept outside of the public eye in order to not expose the embarrassment and colonial intentions of this mass killing event they call war.

All of this — all of this started with a simple vial and presentation in front of the United Nations. Do you think anyone involved in pandering these lies has ever been arrested or prosecuted similarly as the people who exposed them? Of course not. And while this convoluted story revealed itself in front of the public eye we completely forgot that this was the second time the U.S. fabricated lies in order to justify a war in Iraq and it was done by George Bush's father.

With every whistleblower prosecuted, dead, or too afraid to speak up, who will be there to expose the next wave of lies?

I like to remind also, that the Second Iraq War failed to put a democratic process in place, and allowed the creation of The Great Kalifaat ISIS

Such a Wonderful gift that the USA has done for the rest of the world!

And letting ISIS pullulating has allowed a notable increase in Islamist Brain Washing Propaganda and terrorist candidates as well as terrorists attacks, whether it be around Sahara, or in the rest of the World.

This works for Republican leaders

But I am not sure this totally works for the voters... That is not what FOX tells them! They believe what FOX repeats in loops

They like shouting at the other side: they simply like being superior and having a enemy to despise, it simplify their world view

They have no effort to do: all the variations of something like a solution lies in "it is all their fault"

They don't like nazis: they ARE the people lead by the nazis

THEY ARE

Tonight I started a discovery course of Hebrew. Just for me

I checked the alphabet
Similar system of consonants and strong vowels on which you append unwritten short vowels

Then I went on with the words that are close to Arabic, which I started to learn 20 years ago (not seriously enough): I still remember though how to pronounce most of arabic letters, and remember some vocabulary

I post my "course", because I recognize many of the words: THREAD will be LONG

The course is generated by chatGPT so there may be errors
And the prompts were generated by me who has insufficient knowledge of both arabic and hebrew
