Listening now to the pugilistic trumpet solo by Miles Davis like he's sounding off repeated hard jabs in this Jazz-Rock long jam 'Right Off', With J. Mclaughlin (g), B. Cobham (d), Michael Henderson (fender bass) H. Hancock (k) from his 1971 Lp 'A Tribute to Jack Johnson' Enjoy!
@SonOfAnchis3s Nice!
Got a poetry collection by Czech poet Ivan Blatný with an English translation side by side some time ago. It was bad. It's almost impossible to move one's core knowledge to another language. On the other hand I did some translation of Jack Gilbert to Czech and I liked it.
RIP René Groebli (1927-2026), who made one of the most tender & intimate photography books ever, documenting his wife Rita in a Paris hotel room during their honeymoon
‘The Eye of Love’ (1952)
@Katerina_Dostal@citarnyknihy It’s also a cultural thing. The dress code doesn’t move quickly, it’s still stuck in the seventies. When the influx of an outside fashion came, there was no way to mimic the cat walk moves. It’s just not in the blood. In this case the marching moves cannot be properly sublimated
@NonDiaCritical @petr_macinka It also showed weakness. They (the big leagues) noticed us. The popular kids didn’t pass us at the high school cafeteria unnoticed. It is not a recognition of the fundamentals, but a quick rise of a meteor daring the most hated woman in the US on the equal level.
@MilanMikulecky@Aaronalf5 Not really. The official media are the same everywhere in the West. The Czech upstart pol challenged the beast on the European stage as her equal. You DO NOT DO THAT! She has no equals (pun intended).
@Robert_Novak25@chmelamar@RisingJana Yes. If you noticed she was jockeying with ‘women rights’ as a response to the ‘gender’ question. That is her attack territory.
@GeGvendy@JirkaSabol The accent will stay. The speed in formulating the thought could improve. But you are all missing the point, the upstart pol from Eastern Europe just had Hillary for lunch. That is all that matters.
@volven@perobombero He has a heavy accent, that’s for sure, but he has to work with whatever he has. The reaction in the States ( twitter) could care less about his English (subtitles). What matters is Macinka’s willingness to storm these people at all.
@chmelamar@RisingJana Great! Look at her face! Nonetheless her suggestion to throw all the available weaponry at the Russian territory just tells you that we have dodged the bullet.
Greene wrote that he'd gone to confession & told the priest about their situation. The priest replied that if he wished for absolution he must stop seeing Catherine and go back to his wife. “I’m sorry,” Greene replied...

“The autocrats centered in the European Union’s capital demand absolute ideological submission, swiftly moving to punish member states that dare to prioritize their own distinct cultures, borders, and constitutional courts over the federalist agenda.”
