Ein Dienstagslächeln / … A Tuesday smile – Stella, oh, Stella

Erst dachte ich, dass diese Geschichte kein Happyend hat, aber dann fand ich, dass man das aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln sehen kann. Wie seht ihr das? Ist das Ende gut oder nicht?

… First I thought that this story doesn’t have a happy ending, but then I found out that it can be seen from different angles. What do you think? Is the ending good or not?

Der Film erinnert mich an die Trilogie (in fünf Teilen) von Douglas Adams „A hitchhiker’s guide to the universe“. In einem der Bücher beschreibt er, wie die Erde bevölkert worden ist. Leute von anderen Planeten haben ganz einfach alle ihre Verrückten mit Raketen zur Erde geschickt, die danach nicht mehr zu gebrauchen waren, a one-way ticket, haha, das würde so Einiges erklären. 😉
Aber unser kleines Kind hier im Film ist ja nicht verrückt, es hat nur ADHS und die Unfähigkeit zum Roboterdasein.

… This movie reminds me of the trilogy (in five parts) by Douglas Adams „A hitchhiker’s guide to the universe“. In one of the books he describes how earth had been populated. People from other planets had simply sent all their crazy individuals to Earth in rockets that could not be used afterwards, a one-way ticket, haha, that would explain a lot. 😉
But our little child here in the movie is not crazy, it only has ADHD and the incapability to live like a robot.

Violência Contra a Mulher – Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Os sonhos nos fazem alcançar voos surpreendentes.”

Hoje, recebi o Convite da União Brasileira de Mulheres Seção  Santarém, em referência a passagem do Dia Internacional da Mulher, na UFOPA  ( Campus Tapajós), onde o tema é: ” A Mulher na Luta pelo seu Ambiente. Confesso que fiquei muito feliz por essa oportunidade vinda da Socorro Leão. É um momento especial para mim, por dia após dia, trabalhar um tema tão delicado como é a violência contra a mulher.

É sabido que os índices de violência no Brasil, são estarrecedores. O desrespeito é um caminho para agressão. E muitas vezes, pelo fato da mulher se sentir sozinha, com medo e “sem norte”, ela prefere o silêncio. A luta pela vida é constante. Esse é um direito pelo qual essas mulheres, brigam todos os dias. O silêncio como dito anteriormente, acaba dando azo para o agressor se sentir cada vez mais forte, e impor as suas perspectivas alicerçadas sobre as renúncias da vítima que a aceita com frequência os pedidos de desculpas, sem levar em conta os riscos que correm caladas.

Segundo a ( OMS) Organização Mundial de Saúde, o Brasil ocupa o 5⁰ lugar no Ranking Mundial de Feminicidio. Uma tristeza pensar que diariamente, a violência ganha número absurdos. E que muitas mulheres por procura ” amor e proteção “, nos homens que elas elegem como seus, acabam encontrando a morte.

É preciso exigir mais proteção; leis severas, ações de enfrentamento à violência. O Estado tem o dever de promover políticas públicas que garantam os nossos direitos. Aqui, eu também me incluo,por ser mulher.

Russia’s Online Campaign to Destroy Yulia Navalnaya | WIRED

…“The Kremlin is using gendered disinformation campaigns to crush dissent at home and to undermine democracy world over,” Kristina Wilfore, director of innovation and global projects at Reset, tells WIRED. “Rather than stand up to Vladimir Putin, social media platforms continue to provide the means for massive amplification of deeply harmful and defamatory rhetoric that puts women at risk and weaponizes gender.”

The campaign to undermine Navalnaya actually began weeks before her husband died. At the beginning of February, a a German-language website published an article alleging an affair between Navalnaya and Bulgarian journalist Hristo Grozev, based on a video that was supposedly produced by a former employee at Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation. The allegations were based on images purportedly from Booking.com that featured Navalnaya’s and Grozev’s names.

The video was posted by an Instagram account that no longer exists, and no users with that username exist on any social media platform, the researchers at Reset concluded. “No public information or any social media profiles appear with the face of the woman from the video, which likely means the video was AI-generated,” the researcher wrote in a report on the campaign. “The video was likely posted on a newly created Instagram account, which was deleted immediately after the video was downloaded, and used only to prove that the account is an actual profile using the interface of the platform.”

Within hours, the same video was being used on an English-language website called Clear Story News, which is part of a pro-Kremlin disinformation network. Meanwhile, the German-language website where the story first appeared lists a Russian publisher with a Moscow address.

At the time, the stories did not reach a large audience and did not attract the attention of fact-checkers. Within hours of Navalny’s death being announced on February 16, links to the articles were spread widely on Russian-language Telegram channels as well as on Telegram accounts and blogs in other languages such as Finnish, Dutch, German, Italian, and English. One of the biggest accounts to spread the disinformation was Russian TV personality turned pro-Kremlin blogger Vladimir Solovyov, who has almost 1.3 million followers on Telegram…

अर्धचंद्र / Crescent Moon  – Kaushal Kishore

 

चाहता हूं मैं 

कि हमारी कहानी अधूरी ही रहे, 

पूर्णता में अंत छुपा रहता है, 

मुझे आधा चांद इसलिए, 

ज्यादा खूबसूरत लगता है

अपने आंशिक रूप में भी…

🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙

I want our story 

to remain incomplete, 

as end lies in completeness, 

so I find the crescent moon, 

more beautiful, 

even in its partial manifestation…

🌙
