‘We Have The Votes’: The Senate Will Act This Week To Codify Same-Sex Marriage | HuffPost Latest News

“We have the votes,” a source close to negotiations confirmed Monday.

A bipartisan group of senators has been trying for months to pass a marriage equality bill to protect same-sex and interracial relationships. The House passed its own legislation in July, but that proposal stalled in the Senate, where some Republicans raised concerns that it would stifle religious liberty.

Democrat Katie Hobbs defeats MAGA favorite Kari Lake in high-stakes race for governor in Arizona

Democratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs has defeated Republican Kari Lake in Arizona’s race for governor, NBC News projected Monday.

Hobbs’ victory is key for Democrats in a presidential battleground and a rebuke to a prominent election denier — though the closeness of the contest left the result up in the air for nearly a week.

Sanat

Vivaldi translation Art: Neither art nor art is for society. Art is only for the performer of art. The painter draws the painter inside out. The sculptor creates the carving stone. The author empties the author’s head. Poet words string string string string string stringers heal the pain of the string.. that is, art is performed for the benefit of the artist.. The pictures drawn in the articles are not for you, dear muse. It is the individual of the public that creates the society that admires art, not for you..

Sanat ne sanat içindir ne de toplum içindir. Sanat sadece sanatı icra eden içindir. Ressam çizer boyar içindekini dışa vurur. Heykeltraş oyar yaratır taşı dile getirir. Yazar karalar, yazar kafasını boşaltır. Şair sözcükleri dize dize dizer dizer acısını sağaltır.. yani sanat sanatçının menfaati için icra edilir.. yazılan yazılar da çizilen resimler de senin için değildir sevgili ilham perisi. Senin için de değil sanata hayranlık duyan toplumu oluşturan sayın birey..

The Free Manual For The Umbrella Project Is Here, Willing Hands Needed

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

     The Project Do Better manifesto is a manual for community organizers which proposes  a long term plan that they can modify for their own communities, and use to work together with other projects and communities to help build a unified movement for the Common Good.
     The book,  Project Do Better: Enough For All, in Four Phases, comes in various sizes of PDF, as an epub, and as a mobi file from the stores that would allow me to set the price to Free, meaning that Amazon and the library systems, which require a minimum price well above that, did not allow me to publish through them.  Note that I personally prefer the ePub, since most PDF readers on the phone are not capable of showing the thumbnails or bookmarks that bring up the left hand side Table of Contents in the published PDF, so…

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Para mostrar-nos gentil com nós mesmos, é preciso mergulhar numa viagem profunda; uma viagem que permite renovar nossas forças no silêncio da mente. O silêncio que guardar e negativa os sentimentos inadequados – o que nos ofende, o que se mantém no último momento, preso na ponta da língua para não encontrar vida nas palavras, na rapidez do cérebro em chamar a nossa atenção. É preciso ser gentil conosco! É preciso ser forte para de longe observar a correnteza levando tudo que encontra pela frente – e acima de tudo: ter maturidade para tomar a decisão certa de deixar que leve o que já não nos pertence mais. “
