There is this part in Andrei Rublev where he is asked to paint the judgment day but time drags on & he never starts & one of his co workers complains how they could have finished it long time ago all with demons, smoke, & fire. And Andrei shouts: But that's not the point!

This is the three vol collection of all Dostoevsky's letters in which he mostly describes how broke he is, asks for money and promises to return it as soon his next manuscript is out.

RIP Gene Hackman. 🙏One of my fav actors of all time. From Scarecrow, French Connection, Conversation to Unforgiven. But if I had to choose one Mississippi burning would be my pick.

'Grok' is indeed what the pig says in Serbian but Grok obviously cannot come to terms with that & is openly denying it. Also, no animal says 'hruk' or 'hru' in Serbian so Grok is just making up stuff.
