Und die "Analogie" mit dem Berg ginge so : Man weiß, das Bestätigen des Berges ist anstrengend, entscheidet sich aber das das zu tun, weil es ein super super Gefühl ist am Gipfel zu stehen und es einem SELBER Zufriedenheit gibt. Allerdings beschwert man sich während der ganzen Tour andauernd bei denen, die im Pool im Tal baden, das alles Scheiße ist und kein Lift da ist.

!["AT THE END of June, the United Nations released a new report which denounced 48 companies it claimed had profited from “the Israeli economy of illegal occupation, apartheid, and [...] genocide” in Palestine.
The report by the UN’s Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Francesca Albanese, claimed that “far too many” companies had profited from the decades-long conflict.
Albanese called for these companies to end their complicity in “human rights violations and international crimes” or “be held to account”.
Earlier this week, Norway’s wealth fund made headlines when it divested from Caterpillar – one of the companies on the list – over the use of its machinery by Israel to demolish Palestinian properties in the West Bank and Gaza.
But the country is not the only one whose sovereign wealth fund invests in companies that are named on the UN list.

This morning's email from my favorite local garden and landscape company got me good. 😅 Among other things, picked up a $5 coreopsis in rough (but revivable) shape that came with a purslane ridealong and an enormous $5 begonia hanging basket that I can probably overwinter.
Oh… and two Starship cardinal flowers, because I cannot dang well help myself. 😬 Plus an enormous swamp milkweed because it was $12.50 and if nothing else it will be worth it for all the seedpods. :3

From Wikipedia:
Herman Melville has an early reference to the crackers in Book XXII, Chapter I, of his 1852 novel Pierre; or The Ambiguities:
For all the long wards, corridors, and multitudinous chambers of the Apostles' were scattered with the stems of apples, the stones of prunes, and the shells of peanuts. They went about huskily muttering the Kantian Categories through teeth and lips dry and dusty as any miller's, with crumbs of Graham crackers.

Saco nueva canción: Seguidilla de las vacaciones.
Esta habla de la experiencia veraniega en la ciudad, sin dinero ni vacaciones.
Sigo con lo de adaptar versos folclóricos al sentir y al vivir popular actual.
Suena a indie, cosa curiosa dado que siempre he renegado de este sonido. Y ahora resulta que es lo que me sale. Y encima me gusta.
El azar, además, ha querido que esta producción me haya quedado más orgánica, y yo diría que hasta suena bien. Ojalá os guste.
