Thank you, Henry cubed. :) Pardon-finding any bit of levity on a dark day. This use of "kinetic" has been irritating! Small in the grand scheme, of course, but grrr!!!

Thank you. Reminds me very much of the complicated history and feelings evoked in Istanbul.

This is my first direct post. I’m just here to listen/learn. But I was seeking some extra oomph today (>anger/frustration, analysis, even strategy) & thought others might enjoy this too. If anyone even sees this, maybe + more inspirational music- So much out there, from US+abroad! Music is powerful.

Coincidentally, I just read this historical perspective on paranoid style in American politics posted by someone else here today (sorry, only saved the link) - an article from a 1963 lecture: harpers.org/archive/1964...
