There is a certain primordial beauty about Iceland. Which is why I keep going back. It seems like a place far removed from the noise of humanity. It isn’t really though. But in bits and pieces it does make you feel like you are in an alien world. It...

AOC in Berlin: "We all need to buckle up. That is the moment that we are in. But if there is any place that shows that good people can prevail over the horrors of inhumanity, it is Berlin. It is Berlin. And it is so many other places around the world that can be a front line to show that we can overcome and we can defeat fascism by a class based solidarity that champions all of us. I think about this, I think about this, and I'll end with this note, but I think about this very often because, of course, the universal health care systems in Europe are the envy of every American. And it is truly, ah, such a revolutionary. Environment that you all grow up in the universality of health care, because it really is a decision and an affirmative material commitment to everyone's basic humanity, to human dignity. And to me, it is not a coincidence that universal health care systems across Europe were established in the wake after World War Two. They are directly connected where you had all of this destruction, in all of this rubble that was built on a politics of persecution and division. But when we decided to move past that, we built material systems based on universality, affirming our our human dignity. And I think it's so important for us to recall those lessons for today, ah, as we confront many of the shadows of those similar movements."

Josh Barnett weighs in on the criticism surrounding WrestleMania 42: “We are in a whole new era, and if you don’t like it, I can understand—it’s radically different from the way it was, and I don’t know when things are really going to settle. We live in a wild, wild, wild, wild world right now... This is a tragedy of the commons kind of scenario... This is the new way of media distribution and monetization now, and I don’t know how it’s all going to settle in the end.”

hyunjin talking about his vacation in iceland! 🥟: i recently went to iceland and it was really great! i highly recommend iceland. driving for 8 hours a day, there were moments like that but i managed to go all the way around. iceland is about the same size as korea, it's like going from seoul to busan and back. it was wonderful. 🥟: on the first day, it felt like autumn. on the second day, it was really warm like summer. on the third and fourth day, there was snowstorm and the car stopped. i felt like i was in winter but no buildings around, all surrounded by mountains and snow. it felt like paradise. seeing it right in front of my eyes, i didn't want to wear sunglasses. so i was really happy!

The more I learn about DNA and the inner workings of our cells, the more I’m convinced that there is a Creator/Force/God. You can call it what you want but to think it’s all just “evolution”, the result of natural selection, seems absolutely absurd to me. I am not saying evolution isn’t real but I am saying that our understanding about the nature of our reality and where we come from is sorely lacking. We like to tell ourselves the “we know the truth”, but the correct answer is that we really don’t know at all. Human origins is the mystery of all mysteries and our arrogance instead of reverence for that mystery is a big reason why evil has gained such a foothold in our world in my opinion. What do you think? Evolution explains it or something else is at play? I don’t claim to know the truth but instinctually feel our explanations are fundamentally flawed. Watch this stunning animation that explains how our DNA is tightly packed up and tell me you are not left with a sense of wonder for the mysterious nature of it all.

Friends, in our first reading from the book of Deuteronomy this week, Moses says to the people, “For this command that I enjoin on you today is not too mysterious and remote for you. . . . No, it is something very near to you, already in your mouths and in your hearts; you have only to carry it out.” This is a master text for what we call in the Catholic tradition “the natural law.” It means that there is within us a kind of deep moral intuition by which we know the right thing to do; there are intuitions of value that give us a sense of meaning, purpose, and direction in life.

🛑 Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 - Captain with school boys and girls! The young Captain was having a conversation with the pupils, and here is what he saying, “I was telling you a while ago, in school they were telling us that we couldn’t do it here. They lied to us. We grow wheat here, and it works well, and we will develop it. Some people have started, this year, I was able to see people who did it, as part of the presidential initiative, and I was told that in the past, some were able to do it and they produced it well. Currently, we are sowing wheat in some farmlands as part do the presidential initiative. What you eat must be produced here. So, this is why I say that we will teach you many things, and we will review the curricula they teach you. For those who drink coffee, they told us that your coffee, chocolate, it is only in the countries with abundant rainfalls, that here is only savanna, desert, it does not rain, we cannot farm. Again, they lied to us. It’s not true! Coffee grows well here, cocoa grows well too. There are people here who have the farms here, even in Ouagadougou here, there are people who have cocoa trees in their yards. This means that, chocolate that children envy those from well to do familes can be manufactured here in Burkina and all the children can eat chocolate in Burkina. We found out it is possible. As for milk, why do we have to import it? We can do it. I just want to tell you that there are many things that they never told us the truth about. You guys are lucky, we are now teaching you, and we promise you that we will do all we can so that you can eat your fill. As we say, you will eat well in the morning before you go to school, you will go to school for free, you will eat lunch, you will have fun, and in the afternoon, when you return home, you will have fun in the neighborhood, then in the evening, you will learn and review your homework and sleep. This is the dream we have. As long as the children in Burkina are not in these conditions, our fight will not stop. Ok? (Claps). So, we know these are your aspirations and it is right and legal. Any parent is fighting for this. Even those who do not have children fight in the hope of having children and to take care of them, so that they can live in better conditions, and be better than them. This is the fight of everyone, this is the fight of every generation. We are lucky God gave us everything. Do you know that everywhere in Burkina we can farm? Everywhere! In the Sahel where they tell you it is the desert, it is only sand, we can farm. As for us, we have been lied to so much, it is the brainwashing of the colonizer. He did that so that we may not think 💭. But we finally found out that everything was a lie ( damn lie, emphasis is mine). If God left many lakes in that desert, He knows why. We can farm everything in Burkina, we can do everything, the land is fertile. And there are so many natural things in Burkina that we never planted but they were here, isn’t it ? Have you ever learned how to plant a shea tree in Burkina? You were born and found them already here right? It is there in the wild in nature. You know it is a gift from God. There are many things in the shea fruit. You have the shea butter, that is oil; do you know that there is chocolate in it? There are seven derivatives in the shea fruit. You also have the Parkia biglobosa (also known as the African locust bean) which is a natural fruit. We have many things, it is not only the minerals in the soil. Even with the soil, we were told that it’s ferralitic soil, that it is not fertile, everything is a lie. You see that today there is so much gold in Burkina. But it is just poorly managed. Our mission is to well manage these resources, and to take good care of you, so that you can be in your basic rights, to lead a good life, to go to school, and that we may protect you. And also that you may fulfill your duties, because your duties are very important, aren’t they?…

☝️ “Nowhere else in the world is there such a level of corruption as in Ukraine. I have communicated closely with former Ukrainian leaders — a bet is placed on everything: for a vote in the Supreme Court, for a vote in the Constitutional Court, a bet is placed. I heard from a top official of the state things like, "We solve this and that; it will cost this much." My jaw just dropped. I said, "Is it really like that?" And was told, "Yes, that's how we do it here."” - President Putin

Q: "Is it the White House's position that furloughed workers should be paid for their back-pay?" President Trump: "I would say it depends on who we're talking about. I can tell you this, the Democrats have put a lot of people in great risk and jeopardy, but it really depends on who you're talking about, but for the most part we're going to take care of our people. There are some people that really don't deserve to be taken care of and we'll take care of them in a different way."

Our mainstream culture is conflict-avoidant. There is the assumption that the less conflict there is in a relationship, the better it is. I disagree. If there is real intimacy, conflict is actually unavoidable. Because we are all different. The real indicator of health in a relationship isn’t the lack of conflict, it is the quality of our repair. It is the level of authenticity we can bring. That requires knowing how to be with conflict and disagreement, how to hold nuance. And it also requires practicing the art of repairing. Are we willing to show up and repair what we broke? Do we have the skills and capacity required for that? Avoiding conflict means avoiding truth and therefore avoiding real intimacy. This work is essential and transcends the personal. If we aren't capable of dealing with conflict in our own personal lives, it is no wonder that the world is in the state it is, where the most prevalent conflict management strategy is escalation.

I wish the church was taught more about the spiritual reality of our world, and the spiritual war that we are in. This world is in control of the evil one and there is evidence of our biblical history everywhere we look. It’s always fascinating to me getting a glimpse into that world by seeing the remnant of it.

More of Harry about Aperture “The reason why it's called Aperture is like, you control how much light you let in to your life. And I think the start of this year, I kind of just decided I was going to say yes to everything. And the momentum of that has just brought, like, so many positive things in a lot of different ways into my life. And it's been a really beautiful time in my life. And I think also, just when I would play people the music, it was always the song that I played first. […] I want to say and where I'm at in my life. And I think there's nothing more fulfilling, I think, as a musician than putting out a song that you feel like represents where you're at in your life. I think sometimes, you know, you write a song and by the time it comes out, you've kind of been through a bunch of things, and you're not really kind of aligned with necessarily what is happening in the song. And I think I really felt it when we put As It Was at or I felt like, “oh, I feel like this really represents where I'm at in this moment” and that felt really fulfilling. So I think kind of I wanted to do that again this time. And just I feel great about, like, pressing play and going like, I want to play something. And that's kind of why it ended up being the first song.” - 102.7 KIIS FM

Matt Reeves says that he tried to make THE BATMAN like it would happen in real life. “I wanted this to be very much like it would happen in the real world. I wanted it to feel like it was grounded.” “like Chinatown in a certain sense. A description of a corrupt place and to get at the seeds of how far that corruption went… I wanted to have a story that feels very much of our world.”

Bensky: And then we have the moment where all of my information is released. All of these other survivors — all of our information is literally out there for the world to see. And you’re like, “Wow, the DOJ really — our government doesn’t care.” And so then you’re wrestling with, like, “Do they just not care? Is it incompetence? Is this, like, you know, a cover-up? A major cover-up?” And I didn’t want to believe that it was a cover-up. When I first got here, I was pretty naive and green about all of it.

Last year I was determined to make a contribution to America's 250th Anniversary. This documentary, The Thread of Liberty: Keeping Our Republic, is what came of that desire. I've posted it here in its entirety, as well as at We have an incredible nation, the first ever rights-based government in the history of the world in which the people are sovereign. We should appreciate it and, more importantly, love it. But loving requires understanding and then restoring. There is a great deal to celebrate and there is also a great deal of work that lies before us if we're to restore the republic. One of the central questions for the future of the American Republic is do we still feel an obligation to our experiment in free government? I believe one of the places that we renew the obligation, and begin the restoration, is with a rebirth of instinctive patriotism. I sincerely hope this documentary plays a role in that rebirth. Keep America Free.

🚨 There is a country in Europe in which press freedom is under fire. The State is attempting to ban a TV broadcaster. The broadcaster never broke the law and was never convicted in court. I am shocked by this. This is a violation of the #RuleOfLaw and of the freedom of speech. What is going on? And which country is this about? I explain it in this video... ⤵️

Larry Ellison: “Overachievers are not driven by the pursuit of success but the fear of failure” “We human beings are endlessly curious about ourselves.” Oracle founder Larry Ellison begins. “We love to test ourselves constantly, and we find all sorts of arenas to test ourselves in. Right now, I have the fastest racing sailboat in the world . . . and I’m discovering all sorts of things about me as I race that boat. I discover all sorts of things about me every day as Oracle competes with Microsoft for supremacy in the software world.” This reminds Ellison of the saying: “I climbed the mountain because it was there.” “That is utter nonsense,” He argues. “You climb the mountain because you were there and you were curious if you could do it. You wondered what it would be like. You wondered what the view was from the top. That’s how we explore. The thing that we’re most interested in is exploring our own limits and exploring our relationship with others. We’re much more interested in each other and ourself than we are in anything else. I think there are two things that are important in life: self-discovery (learning about yourself) and your relationship with others. And I spend my entire life in those two areas.” Ellison continues: “We’re constantly testing ourselves. We’re trying to understand our own level of competency and our ability to control our own world — our ability to put ourselves at risk and then save our own lives . . . I think most overachievers are driven not so much by the pursuit of success, but by the fear of failure. Unless failure gets very close and very nearby, that fear doesn’t reach profound levels, but it drives us. It drives me. It drives me to work very hard. It drives me to make sure that my life is orderly — that I’m in control of my company or in control of the airplane or boat or what have you so that I’m not at risk of failure. And whenever I feel even remotely close to being at risk of failure, I can’t stop working.”

Right now, I have the fastest racing sailboat in the world . . . and I’m discovering all sorts of things about me as I race that boat. I discover all sorts of things about me every day as Oracle competes with Microsoft for supremacy in the software world.” This reminds Ellison of the saying: “I climbed the mountain because it was there.” “That is utter nonsense,” He argues. “You climb the mountain because you were there and you were curious if you could do it. You wondered what it would be like. You wondered what the view was from the top. That’s how we explore. The thing that we’re most interested in is exploring our own limits and exploring our relationship with others. We’re much more interested in each other and ourself than we are in anything else. I think there are two things that are important in life: self-discovery (learning about yourself) and your relationship with others. And I spend my entire life in those two areas.” Ellison continues: “We’re constantly testing ourselves. We’re trying to understand our own level of competency and our ability to control our own world — our ability to put ourselves at risk and then save our own lives . . . I think most overachievers are driven not so much by the pursuit of success, but by the fear of failure. Unless failure gets very close and very nearby, that fear doesn’t reach profound levels, but it drives us. It drives me. It drives me to work very hard. It drives me to make sure that my life is orderly — that I’m in control of my company or in control of the airplane or boat or what have you so that I’m not at risk of failure. And whenever I feel even remotely close to being at risk of failure, I can’t stop working.”
