Der kolumbianische Präsident Gustavo Petro wollte mit allen bewaffneten Gruppen seines Landes Verhandlungen führen, um das geplagte Land zu befrieden. Das Konzept nennt sich "Paz total". Doch eine Gruppe bleibt ausgeschlossen (zu Recht): der Tren de Aragua. www.elcolombiano.com/colombia/gob...

Every shoebox of photos and stack of letters holds a fragment of history. Wikimedistas de Bolivia digitizes family-held archives to preserve cultural memory, especially works by artists, musicians, and writers. 🧵⬇️ (1/2)

A young man looks at the camera next to a humorous sketch of a figure. Text says: How families are helping Wikimedistas de Bolivia save history. These Bolivian family photos and letters aren't just personal treasures. They are also pieces of history. When digitized and shared, they help build a richer record of our world.

Otoñal / Autumnal, by Santiago Rusiñol Prats, 1910, oil on canvas
Museo de Bellas Artes, Buenos Aires
#GardenLove #GardenPainting #SpanishArts

In the centre of the painting, we can see a white-coloured fountain. The area around the fountain is dominated by low-growing plants. These plants look more greyish than green. In the background, we can see trees with autumnal leaves. The centre part of the picture is arranged in a very symmetrical manner.

This ad about the importance of using the best lightning solutions for your workspace is brought to you from 1530 Wittenberg. The desk user M.L. recommends the illuminating dove to help you stay on task. #skystorians #academicchatter

Martin Luther sits at a writing desk, writing, and a heavenly sent dove is illuminating the room. This is a hand coloured part of a bible print from 1530. You may access a digital copy here: https://daten.digitale-sammlungen.de/~db/0011/bsb00113027/images/index.html

Mein POV: Wie auch Schnitzel, Burger und Wurst aus Fleisch sollten Ersatzprodukte als Beilage in massvollen Einheiten gegessen werden. Wenn ich sie kaufe (ich stelle sie teils selbst her), dann achte ich ausserdem, wie auch sonst, auf Qualität, Zusatzstoffe, regionale Herkunft, Verpackung etc.

El paraíso de los gatos / Cats' paradise, by Remedios Varo, 1955, oil on masonite
#GardenLove #GardenPainting

Varos depicts her vision of a fantastic garden with lots of light green. Two towers that might as well be surrealist mushrooms are in the centre of the picture. The landscape is inhabited by cats. They look out of the window, sleep on the ground or play around. In the background sky and a lake seem to merge.

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.
