He really was right on time, wasn’t he

However things are “doomed” enough today that if 50–70% of every surface - from phones to airplane seats, cars to skyscrapers - carried the stark warning “Consumerism causes a slow death to our planet”, like on cigarette packets, it would be the lesser misfortune we face

So, science has confirmed that El Niño emerged on 11–12 June (epithets "Godzilla", "Super"), which by heat and drought will likely surpass the 1877-1878 event that killed 50M people in the world. I don’t take any pleasure in this, nor do I see the Earth is doomed because of that.

@Q0MT6pFmbVqynsM Третий вариант: ракета-торпеда. Стартует как обычная крылатая ракета, ныряет в море и становится торпедой

@Q0MT6pFmbVqynsM Понимаю, идея безумная, но я бы попробовал доставку супердроном-тяжеловесом БЭКа в Азовское море, чтобы он отработал по мосту с внутренней стороны, где нет барж и других заграждений. Еще вариант: доставка БЭКов по суше к морю под видом "груза лодок" - операция "Паутина-2"

@CassiaBeltran I like these sorts of knives. They’ll cut anything, but you can’t accidentally chop your finger off

In "The Power of Gentleness", Anne Dufourmantelle gently reminds us that Gandhi’s ideals of non-violence, simple living and civil disobedience came, as strange as it may seem, not from Zen or the Tao Te Ching, but from "westerners" - Leo Tolstoy, John Ruskin and Henry Thoreau

@Q0MT6pFmbVqynsM Для нерентабельности НПЗ достаточно создавать "воздушную опасность" и ежедневные экстренные сбросы давления через факел. Дронам даже не нужно попадать по заводу. После сброса давления перезапуск завода (ЭЛОУ-АВТ) с нуля занимает 1-2 суток

@Q0MT6pFmbVqynsM Нужен твой комментарий @umbra_cursor
"1-2 года на АИ-92 по 120 рэ за литр по талонам ничего не изменят" или как?
В этом году рф нанесет "максимально возможный ущерб" или пока потенциал ВСУ не исчерпан? Ты кукарекал 2 года назад про "скоро"
Каков твой прогноз?

The river near the square

[LagrangePointL2 @LagrangePointL2]

A square in the name of Russian writer Nina Berberova in Arles, Provence, on the bank of the Rhona

P.s. The plaque hangs on the headquarters of the large independent publisher Actes Sud (serious, high-quality lit., translations and books that do not promise an immediate profit).

@Q0MT6pFmbVqynsM Небольшой парадокс в том, что большинство россиян "ЗА" удары по Москве, и их гораздо больше, чем тех, кто за удары по Украине. Вековое "единство" холопской росии: столица держит остальное население за крепостных, и глумится над ними; в ответ Замкадыши едины в ненависти к столице

"After seeing troop trains departing from Waterloo, I used to have strange visions of London as a place of unreality. I used in imagination to see the bridges collapse and sink, & the whole great city vanish like a morning mist. Its inhabitants began to seem like hallucinations"

"I must say that anyone who moved through those years [of World War II] without understanding that man produces evil as a bee produces honey, must have been blind or wrong in the head"

Excerpt from Lady Ottoline Morrell's memoirs about the war, Febr 1915:

[LagrangePointL2 @LagrangePointL2]

Klemperer, during the WWII: "I leave her [Eva, Victor's 'Aryan' wife] the butter, the sugar and by far the greatest proportion of meat [and the bread] – but she is losing weight even more quickly than I am."
(In the 1942, Jews were not allowed to purchase any meat,eggs, and milk)

[LagrangePointL2 @LagrangePointL2]

Victor Klemperer, during the WWI, a military volunteer in the Bavarian Army in the 1915-1916: "I have never been so obsessed with food. I go to bed and wake up hungry, exhausted and worn out, thinking of nothing but how I might get some more potatoes to eat"

"We had a lovely time that summer. When I could go out we rode in a carriage in the park. I remember [...] Catherine Barkley sitting beside me. If we let our hands touch, just the side of my hand touching hers, we were excited"
