The feeling of unity soon gave way to anger and division,
in large part due to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars,
begun by the George W Bush administration
and framed as necessary conflicts to help the US win the "war on terror".
“We launched two forever wars that were wholly ineffective at making us safer militarily,
and only sank our prestige in the world
– especially [in] Europe and the Middle East
– at the cost of thousands of American sold…

I've been at The Firs, Elgar's birth place. As well as hearing Nimrod played on a 1927 wind-up gramophone (see @…'s post if you want to hear it) I learnt a lot about Elgar as a man and a polymath, and as the first composer to take the gramophone seriously. The odds were stacked against him but now he's a national treasure. My friend's gre…

Labyrinth (2026)
The literal name of this section of a wall of almost a thousand meters[1] of near vertical ice, a slowly shapeshifting maze of seracs, flowing, fracturing, the light refracting and revealing the beautiful blue ice glow of the (dying) glacier... No photo can do justice (to the scale and impressions). For reference, the cliffs in the foreground are ~2.4 km (1.5 miles) in front and the path to the ice goes first over/across them...
(Ps. I will keep posting my images…

I couldn't decide what to do today and where to go. I got up too late for a longer hike due to the heat. In the end I just got on my bike and followed the road and pushed myself for some training effect.
It was a really enjoyable ride except for the last 10km where the heat got really annoying.
Is this a #silentsunday contribution? I think so... No talking, less thinking, j…
