🌎Brotogeris tirica

Um pequeno papagaio verde brilhante agarrado a um galho. Está de perfil e virado para a esquerda, com a cabeça ligeiramente inclinada para baixo. A plumagem é principalmente verde brilhante, com algumas penas ligeiramente mais escuras nas asas e costas. O bico é pequeno e rosa-avermelhado, e os olhos são escuros e redondos. As patas são pequenas e cinzas, e os dedos estão firmemente agarrados ao galho. O fundo é verde escuro e desfocado, proporcionando contraste com as cores vibrantes do pássaro.

i met some leaders in die linke a while back and they asked me about how canvassing works in the US. i asked a linke staffer how they would normally go about talking to voters in a 1:1 interaction. he started with: "hello, i am from die linke. are you a member of the precariat?"

This is the canonical version of it:

Tumblr post by "gefdreamsofnhesea":

Hot take of the day: a worrying number of leftists are actually just Evangelical Christians with the serial numbers filed off

The world is sinful/a capitalist hellscape but we just have to wait until the Second Coming/the Revolution happens when everything will be magically fixed. Any attempt to make actual progress makes you a lukewarm Christian/liberal anything less than the Apocalypse/the Revolution (which we are forever waiting for btw) is completely useless . Also consuming certain media or makin certain lifestyle choices is sinful and unchristian/bad praxis.

Reply from "figtreeandvine":

There's also a common obsession with an ideal "prelapsarian" past-Eden before the apple in Evangelicals' case, life before colonialism, industrialism, capitalism, Christianity, agriculture(!) in some leftists' case.

Being Liberal ®🗽🏳️‍🌈

Wealth inequality is our number one issue. Put another way, 8 people own more wealth than 3.6 billion but sure a mother on food stamps is the problem.

A reminder that T. S. Eliot had the problems of today figured out 103 years ago in his essay and poetry collection "The Sacred Wood."

"The vast accumulations of knowledge—or at least of information—deposited by the nineteenth century have been responsible for an equally vast ignorance. When there is so much to be known, when there are so many fields of knowledge in which the same words are used with different meanings, when every one knows a little about a great many things, it becomes increasingly difficult for anyone to know whether he knows what he is talking about or not. And when we do not know, or when we do not know enough, we tend always to substitute emotions for thoughts."

Em um 29/11, como hoje, pelos idos de 1807, D. João VI de Portugal fugiria de Lisboa ante o avanço das tropas de Napoleão durante a Guerra Peninsular, transferindo a corte portuguesa para o Brasil.
