Protest held after Home Office evicts asylum seekers from Walthamstow hotel | openDemocracy (Me: Tories expert at being cruel)

A protest outside a hotel in east London where hundreds of asylum seekers were given just days’ notice of their eviction
The eviction forms part of the Home Office’s drive to end the housing of asylum seekers in hotels, a policy that has led to a huge surge in homelessness.
One woman from Iran told us she has been “full of stress and anxiety” since finding out about the eviction. Ava* arrived at the hotel in January 2023 with her one-year-old daughter and husband.
Ava and her family fled Iran after her husband converted to Christianity. She told openDemocracy being evicted with no information about where she was being taken had made her relive the ordeal of leaving her home…

Noir c’est noir | De malinha pronta

Le noir est une couleur en soi, qui résume et consume toutes les autres.

Marii Freire – Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!
Dinheiro, posição, moda e também ” modos elegantes” são as coisas mais desejáveis no mundo, porque enche os olhos das pessoas. Pena que a gente confunde o falso com o verdadeiro, e admira o que não é admirável que é a essência do ser humano, a ética e outros. A ética eu acho fantástico. Creio que não há modo mais elegante de se comportar; uma vez que, desde o nascimento, o indivíduo carrega consigo um conjunto de informações que certifica o seu comportamento, bem como as suas ações aonde estiver e, o que ele fizer. Mas o que acabamos vendo e aplaudindo é o inverter da posição que inclusive, se acaba achando ” bunito”, principalmente, para subir de posição, – isso para muitos, custa até pobreza do outro. Aí, a beleza se desfaz. Todavia, um tapinha de aprovação, revela que a intenção é boa. E nós nos permitimos a enxergar grandeza nessas coisas.

Is Texas Even Part Of The United States? | Filosofa’s Word

Texas politicians seem to have forgotten that Texas is still a part of the United States, is still bound by the U.S. Constitution, and does have to play by the rules. On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court gave them a bit of a reminder, and they are up in arms.
The backstory, briefly, is that in July, Texas Governor Greg Abbott ordered razor wire to be placed in the Rio Grande River that forms the border between Texas and Mexico to deter migrants entering the country ‘illegally’. This goes beyond a ‘border security’ measure, it is cruel and inhumane. Razor wire can easily shred the body of a person who has the misfortune of accidentally swimming into it…

Sewing Machine – Kaushal Kishore

Within life’s intricate tapestry,
a sewing machine hums,
Destiny’s threads weave,
stories as they become…
*
Relentless, life’s needle dances
in rhythmic grace,
Weaving moments seamlessly,
a fervor we embrace…
*
Yet, love’s essence,
a thread we must employ,
Without its embrace,
connections lose their joy…
*
Each stitch, a moment,
an embrace we share,
Love’s thread binds hearts,
leaving no trace to spare…
*
In the loom of relationships,
a delicate dance,
Love’s weaving touch,
a sweet, binding trance…
*
But, neglect the weave,
and the fabric fades,
Torn edges linger,
like whispers in the shades…
*
No needle is idle
in this life’s grand design,
Love, the thread that makes
existence intertwine…
*
So, let our hearts entwine
in a dance so divine,
For in love’s tapestry,
true connections brightly shine…

Love connections…by Mágica Mistura – Mágica Mistura
We are all one
With trees, land, air, water
Sky, stars, volcano lava
Butterflies, bats, snakes
There are those who seek God in temples
There are those who seek themselves in escapes
We always want the “truth”
But the truth is a journey, a path
Continuous learning… evolution
Our stellar brothers
Always present with us
The hands give us in this mission
We just have to have sensitive intuition
Looking up to the sky
To look inside, at yourself
And all beauty and Light will come to light
Poignant and revolutionary
Tearing down what obstructs the vision
Opening the innermost part of the spirit
Making the light of the world shine again
Eternal Universal Love

Quarantined Mac ‘n Cheese | snapshotsincursive

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Country Casual Cravings: Quarantined Mac ‘n Cheese! We all know the effects of social distancing and being quarantined at home. It can reek havoc on mental health and increase anxiety, that’s for sure. Rising costs of groceries can contribute to feelings of fear, worry, and frustration as well. That’s when comfort foods come to the rescue. I actually made this dish when my kitchen was being renovated during the pandemic and all I had was a counter microwave for cooking meals. This one-bowl meal eased the pain of feeling like things were out of control. Perhaps it may help you, too…
