Words to describe foggy weather – grammaticus

November has brought shorter days and cooler weather, as well as one of my favourite weather conditions – fog! It’s often there when I wake up in the morning, descending again in the evening hours. I know not everyone likes it, but it just looks so delightfully mysterious to me. I’ve always been fascinated by…

Animals are key to restoring the world’s forests | Max-Planck-Gesellschaft

As UN climate talks close in Egypt and biodiversity talks begin in Montreal, attention is on forest restoration as a solution to the twin evils roiling our planet. Forests soak up atmospheric carbon dioxide and simultaneously create habitat for organisms. So far, efforts to help forests bounce back from deforestation have typically focused on increasing one thing—trees—over anything else. But a new report uncovers a powerful, yet largely overlooked, driver of forest recovery: animals. The study by an international team from the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, Yale School of the Environment, the New York Botanical Garden, and the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute examined a series of regenerating forests in central Panama spanning 20 to 100 years post-abandonment. The unique long-term data set revealed that animals, by carrying a wide variety of seeds into deforested areas, are key to the recovery of tree species richness and abundance to old-growth levels after only 40 to 70 years of regrowth.

it’s pain on a white piece of paper

battering, crippling, numbing

deaden emotions, there’s nothing left to feel

you are left with nothing child, the pain

November 2022

không phải bài thơ nó là tờ giấy trắng

nỗi đau trống rỗng

tan nát, gục ngã, chẳng còn gì trong lòng

cảm xúc của chúng ta đã chết

bỏ lại em trắng tay, đau đớn

cảm giác vô vọng, anh cũng cần

chúng ta không có tên

chúng ta là những người vô danh

Tsinghua University Student Protest

they hold up white sheets of paper

the transparency

they took to the streets with the light in their hands

not pickaxe

not bricks

.

Tiananmen, the fallen students under the tank

30 years later, again the students took their stance

it’s China’s luck when those who have taken to the streets

were young people from a university

not old men with sticks from the slum

the blood of students in white

will wash away the humiliation

.

Student

our students are screaming too

in the pubs in front of giant TV screens

angry and shouting from losing a bet

none of them remember to bring a white sheet of paper

to write their suicide note with a mathematical equation

before flying down to the dorm yard in the…

Violência Contra a Mulher

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Enxergar a violência pela qual está passando é crucial para que a mulher consiga se lembrar que antes, ela tinha uma vida, uma história, uma identidade. Muitas esquecem, inclusive “perdoam seus parceiros na expectativa de que estes, possam mudar de comportamento e não praticar mais abusos.

Apesar das várias demonstrações de que esses parceiros agressores não vão mudar; e quando falo “parceiros agressores”, refiro-me tanto ao homem quanto a mulher, porque os dois praticam violência. Há casos onde muitas mulheres vivem relacionamentos conturbados ( doentios), e passam situações extremas, muitas permeadas de machismo, menosprezo e intolerância, de ter que “ouvir coisas que provocam sofrimento” e que destrói o psicológico delas. Existem situações onde as ofensas causam feridas emocionais, porque o barulho que elas fazem geralmente é interno, uma vez que; calam-se em meio a violência que sofrem.

De maneira bem direta, é possível dizer que a mulher ” passa a…

Wagner Group Accused of Recruiting Prisoners From the Central African Republic for Russia’s War in Ukraine

Another military officer told The Daily Beast that rebels held for attacking and killing CAR soldiers during an assault on a military camp in the southeastern town of Bakouma town in April have also been freed by Russian mercenaries. The officer said Wagner paramilitaries told military officials that the released rebels would be working for the group overseas.

“They [Wagner] said they needed urgent manpower in Mali and Ukraine,” the officer, who works with CAR’s army, told The Daily Beast. “I think more than 20 people we’ve been holding [for very serious crimes] have been released.”

Tolerance, Love, Kindness Instead of Hate … PLEASE! — Filosofa’s Word

Mass shootings, racist teachers, pushing, shoving and name-calling … so may signs of increasing incivility in the U.S. today.  Where does it all come from and more importantly, how do we stop it?  Where do people get the idea that one race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, or religion is somehow superior?  Humanity sometimes seems to […]
