Fascism, as it is unfolding in the US right now, is always about self-destruction. They sell it to you as if to make you great, but in the end, it is self-destruction.
This needs to be told to people who think they can gain anything. No you can't. There are no winners.

Ñandutí, Paraguayan lace. The name means "spider web" in Guaraní, the official, indigenous language of the country. Due to Spanish colonialism, it is related to Tenerife lace #WomensArt

I really miss the dull perseverance pictures from the distant planet. It's currently in sleep mode due to the sun standing in between the pathways of communications for some weeks.

I wish folks who I owned dogs would get it through their heads that dogs DON'T understand punitive actions.
All that does is make for an unhappy and less trusting relationship .
Also if it's cold outside for you it's cold for them.

Despite US politics being a total clusterfuck, this is an incredible development. It will be the first time anyone under the age 54 will have been alive to see a Lunar mission. Part of the spacecraft was also built by the European Space Agency. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I didn't know that we Austrian had the specialists with guts. He is really good at it and I agree.
Gunther Fehlinger, chairman of the Austria Committee for NATO Enlargement, to United States: "If you take it, we will take every single base of the US from Aviano to Ramstein, from Romania to all the other military bases, will be confiscated and you will lost it." "If you go extreme, we go extreme"

In den Medien liest man nun, Venezuelas Staatschef Maduro wurde "festgenommen", "gefasst" oder "aufgegriffen".
Dabei wurde er durch das US-Militär entführt, Venezuela angegriffen und nein, auch das Maduro ein Diktator ist, rechtfertigt diesen Schritt nicht.
Wo bleibt Europas Reaktion?

Heute vor 108 J. wurde Willi Graf, Mitglied der Weißen Rose, geboren. 1943, nach 8 Mo. Haft wurde er von den Nazis ermordet. Während seiner Haft schwieg er trotz fortwährender Verhöre durch die Gestapo. Er rettete damit vielen Gleichgesinnten das Leben.

Covid is not the only infection going around and when people decide to wear masks, just let them do that without teasing.

From Mars. The stone looks like some glass-like basalt. Now I am sad that I did not study mineralogy to address this properly.
