M.W. das erste Mal, dass die @nzz.ch einen AfD-kritischen Beitrag verfasst und wenigstens mal das Wirtschaftsprogramm dieser Extremisten zerlegt: www.nzz.ch/internationa...
Ziemlich ungewöhnlich für dieses sonst so AfD-affine Blatt.

Nice list. To be sensitive to style is something one can acquire in the humanities – the part of higher education less and less attended and slashed in funding.

Not the U.S. leaving the alliance (Art. 13) but turning militarily on another member is the main challenge to NATO's viability. The organisation will not be tested by some nonsensical action of Russia crossing the border to Estonia but by NATO creating its own Art. 5 incident.

THE WORD OF GOING DOWN DEEP
that we have read.
The years, the words since then.
We still are who we are.
You know space is infinite,
you know there is no need to fly,
you know: what wrote itself into your eye
deepens us into depth.
— Paul Celan
(transl. from German by Johannes Beilharz)

For dinner I had self-baked pan bread which I cut in half, then sliced it in the middle and, in the fashion of a Döner Kepab, filled it with a stew of potatoes, carrots, onions, leek, and celery I had made earlier. Yummy!

We are the daily person w/ its personality & character traits, & are the person behind this person. Same for the person we fall in love w/ & enter in a relationsship. And it feels like it's the relationship by which the person behind the person looks to come to the fore & blend w/ its daily person.

If I were a right-winger I'd say: "There is no infinite welfare on finite planet." But as I am not, I say that we need to find ways to decouple welfare expenses from resources.

P. saw the flaws in Arendt's "Eichmann" early and described them lucidly. Her questionable premissses here point to their underlying efficaciousness in "Origins".

Hannah Arendt on Eichmann:A Study in the Perversity of Brilliance
One of the many ironies surrounding Hannah Arendt's book on the Eichmann trial1 is involved in the fact that it should have been serialized in the New Yorker so short

That could become a full-fledged and very interesting game. Why did no-one think earlier of combining the teleportation bubbles of HL1 with the environments of HL2 to create a maze?

Wäre ich ein Rechter, würde ich sagen: «Kein unendlicher Sozialstaat auf einem endlichen Planeten.»
Da ich aber kein Rechter bin, denke ich, wir müssen zu einem Decoupling von Sozialausgaben und Resourcen kommen.
Das ist keine Forderung, sondern Problemformulierung.

In Felix Vallotton's 'Honfleur in Fog,' (1911) he has chosen an unusual viewpoint by looking down from Mont-Joli to the west of the town and restricted his palette to a few colours; the sandy yellow and dark green lift the mood of the otherwise gloomy atmosphere.

Seems that I am entering a new phase in my life. One in which I drift away from my adoptive family, staring out in this no man's land. I have two mothers and three fathers, sure, lost sibling there, present ones here, still, with the latest developments, I don't feel like belonging or kin anymore.

'A Lake View.' Akseli Gallen-Kallela spent the winter of 1905 by Lake Keitele in Konginkangas, in Middle Finland. The far looming island can be seen as one variation from the theme 'island of dreams,' a familiar subject in the history of art.
