The pit in the centre of the village is hungry.
The weekly monetary offering no longer silences the roar.
We have agreed we would sacrifice the livestock. Smallest first, leading up to the larger beasts, sheep and cows.
But somehow we know, eyeing each other, that only a human soul will be enough to silence the damned hell hole this time.
A noun is a noun

Justiça
Não há necessidade de reflexões, ou textos enormes acerca da justiça. Não, a Justiça vive por si só. Agora, se a pergunta roda em relação a natureza humana, eu respondo: “as lições tidas como exemplos para a humanidades, desde a sua criação, até os dias atuais, continuam justificando o interesse de muita gente. Portanto, não sei se é possível chamarmos isso de justiça. Neste caso, as chamadas “celebridades intelectuais” que pertenceram, certamente, ao passado até o momento presente, ou seja, atualidade, reúnem um material vasto sobre o que seria justiça de modo geral. Isso se nota claramente em grandes reflexões, assim como exemplos fantásticos que temos. Talvez, o próprio Cristo, tenha sido o maior estimulo a se pensar desde a sua época, ao hoje ( presente), o que seria ou é, essa busca incessante por justiça no mundo. Os seus princípios, sempre foram pautados em grande sabedoria. Todavia, torno a…

Autoconfiança
Seja uma mulher autoconfiante. Isso mesmo: trabalhe o seu autoconhecimento, a sua autoestima, e principalmente, a sua inteligência emocional. Estes são, considerados pressupostos fundamentais para que você se torne uma mulher empoderada, e alguém com atitude e determinação.
Uma mulher que é considerada “autoconfiante” simplesmente, ela não se deixa ” moldar” pelo outro, ou pelos outros. A sociedade nos diz o tempo inteiro que, a mulher tem que ser ” boazinha ” para agradar às vezes o parceiro/parceira. Não, essa mulher, na realidade é alguém que evoluiu, se superou para adotar uma nova postura, ou mesmo, a questão da característica quanto ao próprio comportamento, assim como a fala, objetivos, metas para alcançar. Quer dizer, é alguém aprendeu se acolher melhor. Da mesma forma que, passou a interpretar os acontecimentos ao seu redor de uma maneira lúcida. Essa mulher, aprendeu não só a impor limites, justamente para não deixar que…

Trump Judge Temporarily Blocks LGBTQ Protections
Trump appointees corrupt justice to reflect their toxic political beliefs.
The New York Times reports:
A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked the Biden administration from enforcing directives that extended civil rights protections to L.G.B.T.Q. students and workers. The ruling comes roughly one year after a group of 20 conservative state attorneys general filed a lawsuit against two federal agencies for their interpretation of the 1972 landmark civil rights statute known as Title IX.
The lawsuit filed by Herbert H. Slatery III, the attorney general of Tennessee, and joined by 19 other states contended that the government infringed on states’ powers to regulate their public workplaces and schools. The judge, Charles E. Atchley Jr. of Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, an appointee of former President Donald J. Trump, sided with the plaintiffs.

Portuguese cooperative installs solar for nonprofits, homes
Copernico raises money from investors to install and manage solar installations. They focus on institutions that benefit society and already have 33 installations around the country: kindergartens, churches, homes for people with disabilities, hospitals, and even homes.

The customers get the solar panels for free and still save money on energy.
“Not only have we radically reduced our own electricity bills, we also earn around €5,000 ($5,290) a year with the energy that we feed back into the public grid,” said Luis Besugo from the aid organization APPACDM. The group looks after people with disabilities and also runs kindergartens in the greater Lisbon area.

Investors earn three percent, better than bank saving instruments, but far below typical investments. Despite that, they have no problem finding investors.
