  1. @alicefrieren Erm... Is it not clear that this is an actual photograph, and the technique used was a few million years of tectonic activity and erosion...? :)

    The title refers to a passage from the Bible. I'm not religious, but it sometimes helps to take a "god's eye view" of things/landscapes to appreciate them more... Also see here for an old beautiful Persian legend with a similar context/insight (avid fans of Coldcut/Ninjatune might recognize the sample this was taken from):

    "Now those people who fly have a different point of view of the world from the people who spend their whole life on the ground.

    Don Blanding wrote a poem once when he was flying, and he called his poem "The God's Eye View", and he said it was so different from the view he always had on the ground, which he called "The Bug's Eye View".

    Now I thought about that "Bug's Eye View" when I was over in Teheran in Persia. They told me an old Persian legend. It was about a bug who spent his entire life in the world's most beautifully designed Persian rug. All the bug ever saw in his lifetime was his problems. They stood up all around him. He couldn't see over the top of them, and he had to fight his way through these tufts of wool in the rug to find some crumbs somebody had spilled.

    And the tragedy of the story of the bug in the rug was this:
    He lived and he died in the world's most beautifully designed rug, but he never once knew that he spent his life in something which had a pattern.

    That's why I want you to get up in the air tonight, to see something the old bug couldn't see in the rug. Because even he, this bug, if he had once got above the rug so he could have seen all of it, he would have discovered something - that the very things he called his problems were a part of the pattern."

  3. „Durch die Erfahrung mit der Ampel-Koalition oder deren medialer Vermittlung ließen sie von dieser Hoffnung ab, und eine Reihe wählte dann AfD, damit sich was ändere oder damit die anderen merkten, dass sie nicht einverstanden waren damit, wie es läuft beziehungsweise an ihnen vorbei läuft.“

    Ich möchte nur mal darauf hinweisen, dass Peter Unfried hier erklärt, warum junge Menschen aus Protest #noAfD wählen. Für Ossis wäre diese Erklärung nie eine Option. In fast allen Kommentaren war es immer so, dass Ossis allesamt Nazis sind. Und sie haben angeblich die Demokratie nicht verstanden oder lehnen sie angeblich ab.

    War übrigens auch bei Kommentaren zu AfD-Wahlerfolgen in Niedersachsen auch so. Im Westen Protestwähler, im Osten Nazis.

    Ich denke aber, dass inzwischen dem letzten Protestwähler und dem letzten Jugendlichen klargeworden sein sollte, dass eine Partei, die nach zwei Gerichtsverfahren gegen den Ober-Nazi wegen Verwendung des SA-Spruchs Alles für Deutschland ihre Spitzenkandidatin mit #AliceFürDeutschland feiert, eine unwählbare Nazi-Partei ist.

  14. 💔 Every night, my children suffer from fleas and insects inside our tent… and I’m helpless, unable to afford even basic spray to protect them.
    Their pain doesn’t stop, and neither does my worry…
    🙏 Please, any help—or even sharing our story—could bring them relief and a chance to sleep in peace.

  19. December 31st – Richard Hoffman

    All my undone actions wander
    naked across the calendar,

    a band of skinny hunter-gatherers,
    blown snow scattered here and there,

    stumbling toward a future
    folded in the New Year I secure

    with a pushpin: January’s picture
    a painting from the 17th century,

    a still life: Skull and mirror,
    spilled coin purse and a flower.

    by Richard Hofmann (b. 1949) from his collection Emblem.

    I don’t know precisely which picture the poet is referring to for January in his calendar, nor which artist, but it it is undoubtedly an example of a Vanitas or Memento Mori, a genre symbolizing the transience of life, the futility of pleasure, and the certainty of death, and thus the vanity of ambition and all worldly desires. The paintings involved still life imagery of items suggessting the transitory nature of life.

    A couple of examples are here:

    Between them you find all the elements mentioned in the poem: the skull represents death, the flowers impermanence, the coins personal wealth and the other items worldly knowledge and pleasure. There’s an interesting WordPress blog about the symbolism this genre here:

    P.S. My calendar has pictures of tractors in it.
