Hmmm interesting. I don't think I'd ever heard that before. I will have to look into it

Or in case you meant latin. Because I'm not sure what the point/significance of trying to translate it to Greek would be.

I have never been. But being in music circles that have traditionally had close ties with the festival. What I've generally heard is that it's a shadow of what it was 30 years ago. For whatever that's worth.

It definitely seems to be losing it's identity. Once a communal celebration of art, music, and culture outside of the main stream. It's definitely gotten more exclusive and watered down. Victim of it's own success and capitalism.

You're not wrong that Sanders had some of the most toxic supporters. And still seemingly does. But there's a lot of reasons for that. Part of it was that many of them just like the concept of him and were not supporters of him for any particular political stances. He was the candidate that the GOP focused on promoting the most, to divide and conquer left-leaning voters turning them against each other. Something Sanders himself didn't want. But which worked in spades.

Sanders the person I think is genuine and a great candidate. I would easily vote for him AOC or Warren on any given day.

I was still referring to the last decade so yes. 2015 till now. That particular patch of time. People were telling her as the most principled and moral candidate rivaling even Bernie Sanders.

All the people that tried to convince me over the last decade that she was somehow an intelligent principled candidate. Where are they now LOL. She was worse than even I implied at the time.

Gotta love James. Super creative, and he's joined the movement to de enshitifying peoples lives picking up Linux and working to switch his workflow to open source alternatives.

It's not that they can't. It's that they don't care enough. Plus they enjoy the suffering.

They get to be such cuddly mops when they're all grown out. Look a bit like Teddy bears. Our little 13 pounder gets carried around so much she hardly walks. But yes she gets a little curly in her eyes that are always annoying

Yep. It's more a tech archeology video.

A mind like a bowling ball. Blunt, smooth, and significantly dense for it's relatively small size.
