Monarch butterfly tagged @LivingPrairie Museum in Winnipeg arrives in Mexico. 3,000km in two months.
So here, while the mad guns curse overhead, And tired men sigh with mud for couch and floor, Know that we fools, now with the foolish dead, Died not for flag, nor King, nor Emperor, But for a dream, born in a herdsman’s shed, And for the secret Scripture of the poor.

I worry that tariffs will kill off certain craft traditions: handwoven Harris Tweed in Outer Hebrides, Guernseys in UK, cutlery in Japan, saddle-sewn goods in Paris. These are long craft traditions tied to an area and rely on the US market. Many are already hanging by a thread.

O New York Times teve a coragem de fazer algo que nenhum local teve:
Eles convidaram o Flávio para uma entrevista sem censuras, deixaram ele falar e, na reportagem completa, apontaram todos os absurdos logo depois de cada citação e, ainda, pintaram ele de fujão e a família de conspiracionista. E ainda expuseram todas as acusações que ele, o irmão e o pai enfrentam.
De cabo, aproveitaram pra lembrar aos leitores que o pai dele está preso por (com todas as letras) tentar dar um golpe de Estado após perder as eleições para Lula, e que ele alimentou teorias da conspiração sobre o sistema eleitoral.
Num truque de mestre, toda a reportagem foi iniciada e conduzida por um plano de fundo de crítica ao Trump e a forma como ele está lidando com a situação. Quase num lembrete ao leitor de que “esse é o tipo de coisa que o presidente permite que aconteça com a ajuda do governo dos EUA”.
Deram corda pro cara se enforcar e ele caiu igual um pato.

A @TorontoPolice officer who cannot avoid breaking a child's arm to prevent $3.30 worth of alleged TTC fare evasion is unfit to do his job. This is not a scenario any society should tolerate.
