Still Game
I’m sick of life who knew
If life’s interested in me, I’m game.
Till I’m bored to death, till sick is life,
When life is sick of each other, I’ll stop.
–
I.e. I’ll end it before you can even stop me,
If life still has me, then I’ll play.
People have been in the game a whole life,

–
A literary village lacklustre in competition,
Clandestine, like me…

Sé que vivieron, sé que existieron, sé que rieron y lloraron. No fueron sueños ni fantasmas. No son parte de mi imagimación. Sus sombras, en los retratos, son huellas efímeras, constancia de que fueron reales. No estamos solos. Algo queda de nosotros cuando nos vamos. Tal vez, las sombras que dejaron son pruebas para que nosotros, al mirarlas años más tarde, aprendamos que la existencia es pasajera. Quizá se trata de poemas ocultos, pinturas con claroscuros, musica con pausas y sentidos.

En ocasiones, cuando reviso fotografías antiguas, me causan asombro e inquietud las sombras que proyectaron la gente y las cosas de entonces. Quedaron atrapadas, con los personajes y los objetos, en los retratos que pierden color y textura conforme transcurren los días y los años. Sombras, después de todo, que son cosntancia de…

Obama didn’t keep millions of classified White House documents | AP News
Obama administration records are exclusively held and maintained by the National Archives and Records Administration, the federal agency confirmed on Friday. Millions of unclassified documents were transferred after Obama left office to a NARA facility in Chicago, but neither Obama’s personal foundation nor the facility set to house his presidential memorabilia have control over those papers.

Scotland to be first country to provide free period products | News | DW | 14.08.2022
Scotland will become the first country in the world to protect the right to access free period products with a new law which is set to go into effect on Monday.
The Scottish parliament introduced the change by unanimously passing the Period Products (Free Provision) (Scotland) Act in November 2020. The legislation made it a legal right to have free access to sanitary products in public buildings.
At the time, Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon praised the “groundbreaking legislation” and said it was important for women and girls.
