:: Ma vanno così le cose della vita: uno pensa di recitare la sua parte in uno spettacolo e nemmeno si immagina che sul palcoscenico nel frattempo, di soppiatto, hanno cambiato lo scenario e senza saperlo si ritrova nel bel mezzo di uno spettacolo completamente diverso.
_Milan Kundera_
TIVE
by Gray Davidson Carroll
Transgender Ideology-Inspired Violent Extremism
I wake up in the morning and I am a terrorist.
I wash the dishes, I read the news.
My hands are a terrorist’s hands.
My ears, a terrorist’s ears.
The underside of the right one a bumpy ridgeline
from where, as a child, my father cut me
trying to give me an unwanted haircut.
I jog through the downtown of the city
and the sounds of my feet slapping the concrete
are the sounds of a terrorist’s feet.
I go to my favorite coffee shop
where all the baristas are terrorists.
There, I see my friend from the terrorist knitting group.
He makes the most beautiful sweaters,
always decorated with flowers.
All the people I love most in my life are terrorists!
At the terrorist bar, where all the drinks
are named in honor of famous terrorists,
we pull our hips into one another like a prayer.
Our hips too, are terrorist hips, finally
learning how to hold sway. Each Sunday
I empty terrorism into myself
at the end of a needle. Each day,
I take a pill to metastasize the growth.
I knew I was a terrorist when I
was eight years old. The same year
I found my grandfather’s glock in his nightstand,
set the mouth against my mouth
thinking maybe, just for a second,
I could taste the sound of salvation.
And how many of my loves
gone now for what in them
the world was not brave enough to be.
Trauma is so good for poetry, someone says,
after the reading where I spoke about my friend
stabbed to death inside her home.
You killed it up there, they said.
You fucking killed that shit.
And it’s true, language is the best weapon
for killing at the root.
My terrorists! My terrorists!
I love each and every one of my terrorists.
My terrorists sing gospel. My terrorists
have children. My terrorists are found
in the gutter each morning,
skin turned blue,
etched all over with red and white.
No one wants to look at a dead terrorist.
No one wants to hear a terrorist’s sobs.
When my lovers and I touch,
we touch with the fervor
of a terrorist’s wanting.
Our mouths are wide,
and open. Fingers cocked,
ready to release.

“At the beginning of this week, Advocate broke the news that, at the behest of the Heritage Foundation, the FBI was considering designating trans folx in the U.S. as a terrorist group.”

THE vice-president of Scottish PEN – a branch of the international free speech organisation – has sounded a warning over Orwellian policing after she was arrested and charged under terrorism laws.
She is alleged to have shown support for a proscribed terrorist organisation, Palestine Action, by wearing a T-shirt with the slogan “Genocide in Palestine time to take action” at a protest in Edinburgh on September 6.

L'immagine rappresenta la bandiera dell'Uruguay con un'aggiunta significativa: una pannella solare nera con una gradazione di rosso in basso, posizionata al centro della bandiera. La bandiera è composta da cinque strisce orizzontali blu e bianche, con un sole giallo a sinistra. La pannella solare simboleggia l'energia rinnovabile e la sostenibilità, suggerendo un'attenzione all'innovazione e alla conservazione ambientale. Lo stile dell'immagine è artistico e moderno, con un effetto di movimento che fa sembrare la bandiera che sventola.

12.30 "Alle porte dell'opulenza c'è la miseria di interi popoli, piagati dalla guerra e dallo sfruttamento. Nulla è cambiato nei secoli:quanti Lazzaro muoiono davanti al profitto che calpesta il dolore dei miseri". Così Papa Leone XIV all'Angelus ringrazia i catechisti in P.za S.Pietro (oltre 50mila) e alla Messa per il Giubileo in loro onore. All'Angelus, Prevost ha anche pregato per le vittime del tifone in Asia. E ha annunciato: il primo novembre conferirò il titolo dottore della Chiesa a Sir Henry Newman,teologo,filosofo dell'800. #televideo #ultimaora

The Israeli military has long relied on Microsoft’s cloud and AI tools to support its operations in Gaza.
This week, Microsoft finally blocked Unit 8200 from using Azure — a necessary move, but far too late. Tech giants must ensure none of their products enable surveillance, oppression, or war crimes — and act before there is a public outcry.
The tide must turn towards accountability.

One of the surveys dealt with climate change. The vast majority of religiously unaffiliated persons believe climate change is an existential threat to humanity and support efforts to mitigate it. However, many church attenders, in spite of overwhelming scientific evidence, deny the ominous threat of climate change and resist efforts to deal with it
