A Nobel Peace Prize nomination for Minneapolis is really a recognition of people power and it’s the first time a whole city has been put forward for the prize.

In addition to my overabundance of tea, I am ready for the snow, even though I am not looking forward to the work afterwards.
And will probably catch up on the Turkish version of Frankenstein (Yaratılan) to continue the vibe.

Long and dark, but well worth it.
Filmed in secret and smuggled out of Iran, incorporating footage from the Mahsa Amini protests.
The director and some cast members managed to escape in exile.
Some remain to face the consequences.
Morality, paranoia, and resistance.
Bravo

Venezuela has oil.
Greenland has rare Earth minerals.
Luckily Iceland has only volcanoes, glaciers, and very average cricketers.

Shchedryk, a traditional Ukrainian melody known worldwide as Carol of the Bells, was performed at one of DTEK’s destroyed thermal power plants destroyed by Russian attacks.
The performance became part of a joint initiative with Svitlo Concert.
