Why did the Spanish know Raleigh as Guatarral/Guantarral?
I envision something like this👺

"En la literatura clásica española era conocido como Guatarral o Guantarral."
9 Dec 1603: Sir Walter Ralegh and others are put through the grim charade of an on-scaffold reprieve by James VI & I #otd (BM, his seal from 1584)

Beheaded all the same on 29 Oct 1618.

Europe must have its own tech-infrastructure. It's too dangerous to be dependent on U.S. companies. We need to replace Amazon servers, Google search, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, ChatGPT, Nvidia, What'sApp etc with European versions. Or we might just be destroyed from within by fascist propaganda.

Many of the same insights could apply to the recent election 🗳️ of President Catherine Connolly 🪉 ☘️
How do we and "others" define a moral candidate? While we may all hold incomprehension for others choices, majority or minority, the basic underlying mechanics 🧰 apply. I knew she meant what said 📖

The writing here is successful because it is amoral.
Is being "authentic" merely defined by mass perception or is it inherently bound to truth?

Supported of course by a few US aircraft carriers and other assets. And maybe 🤔
