  1. Albert Barnes, a Presbyterian commentator, points to Job 31 and says, calmly but pointedly: if I’d ignored the poor, made a widow cry, or eaten while the fatherless went unheard, I’d deserve to lose my arm. Job lists mercy as evidence he’s not being punished.

    Today, would that kind of emphasis earn rebuke? How do you keep such duties from slipping quietly away?

  7. Die Welt retten – in 7 Schritten?
    Klingt verrückt. Aber was, wenn es funktioniert?

    Ich hab eine kleine #Weltrettungsformel aufgestellt:

    1. Bewusstsein statt Business as usual

    2. Bildung, die wirklich bildet

    3. Mut zur Vereinfachung

    4. Lokale Kreisläufe stärken

    5. Technologien mit Sinn einsetzen

    6. Geschichten, die Hoffnung machen

    7. Netzwerke statt Einzelkämpfer

    Und? Fehlt was? Könnte funktionieren, oder?

  8. I'm reading @stuhorvath.com 's #MAaHitG chapter by chapter, of course I started with #TunnelsandTrolls / #TnT (p. 7), my first #TTRPG love (!), and of course #Sanctuary / #ThievesWorld (p. 89). Both texts are excellent and highly recommended. Thank you, but #WearetheWorld is terrible :) #Goodstuff!

  9. Try writing a song about a transformation, a positive change in yourself, or making the world a better place.

    Examples: “Imagine” (John Lennon), “We Are the World” (USA for Africa), “Happy” (Pharrell Williams), “What’s Going On” (Marvin Gaye)

  10. Wait, what? Waylon Jennings walked out of the session because Stevie Wonder had suggested singing a line in Swahili? What exactly is threatening about that?

  11. Since the video came out, I have been wondering why Dan Akroyd was at the USA For Africa (We Are the World) recording sessions. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the guy, but he wasn't a gigantic pop star like everyone else in the room.

    Then again, neither was Kim Carnes. She had one quirky hit.

  12. @davidho in the end every democracy receives the leadership it deserves. Let's not push off responsibility for the worldwide climate collapse to some political leadership. Start owning the choices we make ... Every Day #OwnIt #Vote #WeAreTheWorld

  13. Naar aanleiding van de liefdadigheidsdraak #WeAreTheWorld en de Netflix-docu #TheGreatestNightInPop hielden we op @OndergewaardeerdeLiedjes een battle waarin elke artiest die een regeltje zingt wordt belicht. Ik koos voor #RayCharles (en de #BluesBrothers deden mee): ondergewaardeerdeliedjes.nl/20

  14. Bob Dylans osäkerhet och hur han fick hjälp av Stevie Wonder och Quincy Jones, är nog den stora behållningen för mig av den här sevärda dokumentären om inspelningen av "We are the world" (filmen finns på Netflix, "The Greatest Night in Pop").

    PS. Minns när låten kom ut – vilket är lite av en påminnelse om att åren går... 40 år sen nu (edit: nej, 39). 👀

  15. thank you #danrather #steady for reminding me of whom we can be through shared values, community and music.

    #wearetheworld (can't stop weeping as I desire this so much, and so it is, within me, i share this now)

  16. “What we do see depends mainly on what we look for. ... In the same field the farmer will notice the crop, the geologists the fossils, botanists the flowers, artists the colouring, sportmen the cover for the game. Though we may all look at the same things, it does not all follow that we should see them.” ― John Lubbock
