Here's a link to Widor' Symphony 5 full version:

Here's the military version:

And here's another wonferul Servart's song, with a long martian monologue:

Of course, it's much more enjoyable to listen to when u understand French.

So here's a bad translation of the monologue. It still beats understanding nuthin.

My last message here. No more bikering about politics its a waste of time.

Most people are decent, most of the time. At least in my experience, and I have met a lot of people in my life.

There's nothing to remember about all this dumb mess except these 2 sentences.

Some folks dont agree with this, and this is not because of their politics. Leftists agree or disagree. Same for righties.

Ive lived many lives and I met folks from all walks of life. Thats why I dont have many doubts about this.

There's a reason behind this:

Everyone always thinks they’re doing the right thing (sometimes wrongly, of course).

Right?

I recently undersood that that was Jesus said before being crucified:

“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

Amen!

What really matters is happiness, that's what we all desire. But instead of finding ways to happiness, we distract ourselves, either on Insta or on Lemmy.

All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.

(without smartphones of course - Baise Pascal)


And we'd better not fuck up too much, because decades can disappear just like that.

Since im guilty of this, i reread these two short texts ezch year.

Seneca - One the Shortness of Life

https://archive.org/stream/SenecaOnTheShortnessOfLife/Seneca+on+the+Shortness+of+Life_djvu.txt

Paul Graham - Life is Short

https://www.paulgraham.com/vb.html

Relentlessly prune bullshit, don't wait to do things that matter, and savor the time you have. That's what you do when life is short.

Take care.

Im tired af, its late here.

No need to continue the 1 vs 30 debates, were all are dumb af. Like 99% of people.

r/abortiondebate, on R*ddit, is worth mentionning tho. Its the most touchy issue today but members talk relatively cordially.

**Eddit"*: I am an idiot, but for mods who probs still have access to this post, the first, which is upvofed & i wxhich there are several quotes & me saying Amen is worth reading imo. Sorry for zll yhe other dumb poste i got excited for neal trason

(Znf maybeeee i can come back into the trans chicks community)

(Just made a test post there: it workd, YT!)


Me being a Hayek/Burke conservative and adressing political issues straight ahead, it got heated me vs dozens of persons.

Ive said in thid thread that im all for trans rights (wich is true) but that they still harrassed Jordan Peterson with nasty methods.

Well, one hour before that, i posted in the transfem community cuz i like chicks with or without dicks. I started flirting and i got upvoted, which made my evening.

Well im banned from there now & the thread disappeared. That SUCKS seriously whats wrong w/ leftists? Why all the hate? It was raining downvotes all along & they behaved that dicks. Plus i said nothing wrong about the tran community. I sayed some trans individual persons made willfully his life a nightmare.

On X, Ive defended trans multiple times & ive retweeted trans writers to help them, while a good part of my followers are hardline right wings folks. Some of them are my friends.

Left wings people should really enquire about what tolérance really is, because theyre today's bigots.

I LOVE Lemmy. Buy fuck.

Mods: can u fully delete the post linked in the OP, in order to be a bit more protected against left-wingers?

I keep cool, and all can be well inch'Allah.

Crystal clear & detailed answer.

Learning a new useful competence for many kinds of jobs, like Excel, or landing a full-Python job. Does it make sense?

I only know HTML & CSS.

Is is worth it to learn Python?

Is Python a competence inside a package like knowing Excel well, or are there Python only jobs?

Just discovered her.

Watching her vids brings peace to my mind.

Plus she's super cute.

Ha! Got an idea! Does someone here knowns a hopepunk/solarpunk peep that writes short stories or novellas?

[-] Zoomba669@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

& now Ill rest and will just enjoy reading Becky Chambers.

Unfortunately, I contacted her agent 5 days ago. I recontacted him twice since, no answer.

That's life, but I mean, Doctorow agreed & Watts too. Without mailing an agent. These guys, anybody can email them & get an answer.

Since shes lefty, she's not on X, so I have no other idea.

I'll wait, & if it's a big nope Ill still write a post on her, I think.

---> Take care.

Thy light is an eminence unto thee

And thou art upheld by the pillars of thy strength.

Thy power is a foundation for the worlds:

They are builded thereon as upon a lofty rock

Whereto no enemy hath access.

Thou puttest forth thy rays, and they hold the sky

As in the hollow of an immense hand.

Thou erectest thy light as four walls

And a roof with many beams and pillars.

Thy flame is a stronghold based as a mountain:

Its bastions are tall, and firm like stone.

The worlds are bound with the ropes of thy will,

Like steeds are they stayed and constrained

By the reins of invisible lightnings.

With bands that are stouter than iron manifold,

And stronger than the cords of the gulfs,

Thou withholdest them from the brink

Of outward and perilous deeps,

Lest they perish in the desolations of the night,

Or be stricken of strange suns;

Lest they be caught in the pitfalls of the abyss,

Or fall into the furnace of Arcturus.

Thy law is as a shore unto them,

And they are restrained thereby as the sea.

Thou art food and drink to the worlds:

Yea, by the sustenance are they sustained,

That they falter not upon the road of space

Whose goal is Hercules.

When thy pillars of force are withdrawn,

And the walls of thy light fall inward,

And thy head is covered with the Shadow,

The worlds shall wander as men bewildered

In the wasteness void of life and barren.

Athirst and unfed shall they be

When the springs of thy strength are dust

And thy fields of light are black with dearth.

They shall perish from the ways

That thou showest no longer,

And emptiness shall close above them.
