Oh, se hizo de noche cuando pensaba que aún era la tarde. Las horas transcurrieron fugaces e inseparables, negadas al reposo, y, ahora, al año hay que restarle un día más; pero también a mi existencia, a mi vida que alguna vez creí duradera en el mundo. Oh, se hizo de noche y no podré concluir las tareas que en la mañana dejé pendientes por suponer que el tiempo, en el mundo, es perenne. No noté que todo, en la vida humana, tiene un final, una caducidad, una vigencia. Oh, se hizo de noche, mientras creía que vivía y olvidaba mis anhelos, ilusiones y sueños. Oh, se hizo de noche cuando me sentía tan joven. No calculé que la temporalidad de la jornada terrena, aplica a todos y que hay instantes para amar, hacer el bien, aprender, reír, realizar…

Madeira: Funchal per Schwebebahn … Madeira: Funchal by cable car
Mein Mann liebt Schwebebahnen, egal wohin wir kommen. Auf Teneriffa habe ich mich allerdings geweigert, als ich gesehen habe, wie viele Leute sie auf einmal in die Kabine proppen. Da steht man wie in einer Sardinendose, nein, danke! Ihm zuliebe habe ich mich in das Monstergefährt in Funchal getraut (von wegen Höhenangst). Man hatte natürlich einen ganz tollen Ausblick über die Stadt.
… My husband loves these suspended cable cars, no matter where we go. On Tenerife I refused though, when I saw how many people they were stuffing into the cabins. They were standing like sardins, no, thank you! But for his sake I have dared to enter the cable monster in Funchal (I only say one word: vertigo). But, of course, one had a spectecular view over the city.
Hier fuhren wir los. … Here the tour started.

… The cable…

It was a nice day, partly cloudy in the 40’s. A good day to enjoy the river.

The Tipping Point that will destroy the world
It does not takes 25% of people to change direction. A shift of 5% in a short span of time, can set off a shift the will cause the 80% of people waiting to see which way the wind is blowing to change to quickly become the overwhelming majority. All we can do now is avoid tipping points that we have not guessed about yet are a year or so away. We have already passed some significant tipping points that will spill out for the next 10-30 years.
George Monbiot is known for his environmental and political activism. He writes a weekly column for The Guardian and is the author of a number of books. Popular culture is finally beginning to be alarmed by environmental devastation. The movie Don’t Look Up being a current example.
I’m not promoting the reference to Double Down News at the end of the video, but here is a link to that website. Double Down News, The Future of Journalism.

A new study about the power of committed minorities to shift conventional thinking offers some surprising possible answers. Published this week in Science, the paper describes an online experiment in which researchers sought to determine what percentage of total population a minority needs to reach the critical mass necessary to reverse a majority viewpoint. The tipping point, they found, is just 25 percent. At and slightly above that level, contrarians were able…
