This just arrived, written in 1956 and just translated. With it came these lines, pertinent to the age of AI (attributed to "To the Cogs," Molussian Industrial Hymns):
Each day out of machines arise
ever more beautiful machines.
Only we remain malformed,
only we're born obsolete.
Each day out of machines arise
ever more beautiful machines.
Only we remain malformed,

Portrait of a Young Man by Raphael. It's often thought to be a self-portrait. During World War II the Nazis stole the painting from Poland. Many historians regard it as the most important painting missing since WW II. No color photo of the painting was made before it disappeared.

Lesser Violetears are small hummingbirds found in Central America and western South America. "Its short bill and diminutive size restrict it to feeding from small flowers, requiring that it visits an estimated 2,700 flowers per day to meet its metabolic needs." 😮

Salvador Perez could lose his right arm in a chainsaw accident and say he's ready to go for tomorrow.
X-rays were negative on Salvador Perez's left elbow. He lost feeling in his fingers, but it came back around the 7th/8th inning. Big mark on his elbow, and it's swollen, but seems like he avoided the worst case scenario. Of course he says he's ready to go for tomorrow.
