    Brazil’s Cartola

    Alvorada
    Lá no morro que beleza
    Ninguém chora não há tristeza
    Ninguém sente dissabor
    O sol colorindo é tão lindo
    É tão lindo
    E a natureza sorrindo
    Tingindo, tingindo

    Você também me lembra a alvorada
    Quando chega iluminando
    Meus caminhos tão sem vida
    E o que me resta é bem pouco
    Quase nada
    De que ir assim vagando
    Numa estrada perdida

    Dawn
    There on the hill what a beauty
    Nobody cries there is no sadness
    Nobody feels unpleasant
    The sun coloring is so beautiful
    Is so beautiful
    And nature smiling
    dyeing, dyeing

    You also remind me of dawn
    When it arrives illuminating
    My ways so lifeless
    And what I have left is very little
    Almost anything
    Why go wandering like that
    on a lost road

    You’re welcome dear Siljan!

    I’m going to need more time to wrap up the last installation.. so many strands to connect and organize. Already bigger than first three parts combined!! Forgive me, but I just want to finish this, consuming my life atm

    It is devoted to civilizations, what they mean, how they converge and resist, and ways forward.

    At beginning of this awesome Russian anthem is their Main Cathedral of the Russian Armed Forces, which features in the last piece.. it was finished on June 2020, with its opening ceremony attended by Shoigu and Gerasimov on the 75th anniversary of the launch of Nazi invasion of Operation Barbarossa. 20 months and 2 days later, true to the words of Putin that future wars against the West wouldn’t be on their own territory, they launched the SMO…

    The 61-year-old Russian troll-factory known Prigozhin took a selfie at a landmark T-34 monument in Bakhmut. East Bakhmut is reclaimed but the going is slow & fierce. He said 10-20k are enveloped in the boiler.

    Is Nulandistan being carefully drowned in the Swamp??

    • Feb. 8:  Seymour Hersh reveals her as part of 4 [scapegoats] conspiring to blow up NS 1+2
    • Feb. 21 Trump video:  “for decades, we’ve had the very same people, such as Victoria Nuland and many others just like her, obsessed with pushing Ukraine toward NATO, not to mention the State Department support for uprisings in Ukraine.”
    • Feb 22 Musk Tweet: “nobody is pushing this war more than Nuland.”

    Qui bono? Swamp needs to vent excessive sulfurous build-up.. betrayal of their own, a traditional deep delight. But the poor loons! Changing the outer garments will no longer suffice. The issue transcended a few crazies..

    welcome Siljan!

    I thought of you and this song when I was penning the last words of Africa drifting away…

    I kissed his cold dead lips,
    I put a ring on his stiff finger.
    I thought, I won’t be long, my dear,
    And the war in the meantime continued.
    ‘Call Sign: Paganel’ by Anna Dolgaryova

    I see them crossing the Smorodina River,
    The Donets River, the River Styx,
    Fighting for my bygone Soviet homeland,
    For freedom for you and me.

    Ikea Swedish meatballs

    Well as an African who lived several years in the beautiful archipelago of Stockholm, I can well believe the Swedes thought African cuisine was heaven! Their food is sooooo bland. Do they have allergies to ALL spices? Maybe ancient trade routes from Asia/Yemen and spice sources did not reached that far north (until last 1-2 centuries). So maybe strongly habit/culture-driven.. but it persists!

    Their reindeer meat is quite delicious and healthy. But each to his own. I remember other Europeans mercilessly joking about the painfully bland Swedish diet.. and World Cup German futbol fans teasing about IKEA and that they should stick to furniture-making, lol. What will we be saying soon about “360°” Annalena and other German geniuses?

    Injera is one of my favorites, which I picked up in northern Virginia (metro-DC) area with its huge Ethiopian expat community. It should be eaten with care though. Not a light pancake at all! It is better understood as part of a heavy meal. Quite fattening if indulged in too much (or with traditional recipes??) Here’s more detailed instructions.

    cool blue surface sea
    languid ice floats; explosive

    or in plenty; a mirror
