How do you solve a problem like Francisco
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find the word that means Francisco?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown! (Ow my toe)
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell him
Many a thing he ought to understand
But how do you make him stay
and listen to all you say
How do you keep a wave upon the sand?

On set cry of the day: Remembering 2008, flying home straight from my Abuelo Guisin’s funeral in 🇵🇷 to the second week of Heights Broadway performances.
I remember steeling myself for Alabanza, the eulogy, then Carnaval snuck up on me. 1/4
But @EliseoNY saw it before I did.
As Piraguero he sings, “Pa’rriba esa bandera...” and I join him for the harmony in the second half. We are face to face.
And he SQUEEZES my hand, the other to his heart, on
“Y cuando yo me muera...
Entiérrame en mi tierra”
& holds me up. 2/4
Tears pour down my face for the happiest moment in the show. 3/4

Many Brazilian/Flamengo fans don't much about their new coach Jorge Jesus and we will pass information + our opinion about him 😉
Jorge Jesus a.k.a JJ started his career as a coach in the 90's as Amora FC's manager. On his first year, he took Amora to move up another gear and reach the Segunda Liga(Portuguese second division)
His first experience on the Primeira Liga(Portuguese first division) was in 1995 when he coached Felgueiras, a northerner small football club. Jesus was very important during his 3 seasons on Felgueiras, taking them from the third division towards the Primeira Liga.

O burburinho a respeito da frase de Flavio Bolsonaro sobre o Hamas e o "medo" de um atentado me intrigam. Estudo Oriente Médio desde 2010 e não lembro de qualquer ataque patrocinado pelo Hamas fora de Israel e/ou territórios palestinos
Talvez as pessoas estejam confundindo o Hamas com a Al-Qaeda ou o Estado Islâmico. São grupos de naturezas e formas de atuação totalmente diferentes. O ISIS inclusive chegou a declarar guerra ao Hamas e atacou o grupo palestino
O Hamas é um movimento político-social-religioso, inspirado na Irmandade Muçulmana. O foco do grupo é a libertação nacional palestina. Ao longo de sua trajetória, o Hamas realizou e/ou patrocinou ataques terroristas

We can absolutely stop global warming, with tools we have today.

In fact, @ProjectDrawdown has demonstrated this, showing 100 different solutions that, together, are absolutely up to the job. And more solutions are coming.

So don’t let anyone tell you that we can’t do it. 1/n
The biggest lesson from Drawdown, though, is that there is no *single* cause of global warming, and there are no single solutions.

We need to do a lot of things.

And that’s good news, because it means we can address the problem from many angles. 2/n
Climate solutions must include:

- low carbon electricity
- low carbon transportation
- regenerative/smart agriculture, cease deforestation
- less meat, food waste
- better buildings, cities
- green industry, materials
- empowering women, indigenous peoples

And more... 3/n

Many relationship surveys have identified, Money, Sex and Children as the biggest issues couple fight over. So I thought to do a thread about the other silly and ridiculous things married couples fight over.

I will start with a few and you can add more as well.

A THREAD!
TOOTHPASTE

As silly as this sounds, it is the source of a lot of fights in homes. So one person likes to press it from the middle and another from the bottom. Usually the one who complains is the bottom presser. So how do you solve this problem? Use separate toothpaste. Chikena
BEDSHEETS

So you have one partner (usually the guy) who can sleep on mattress made or unmade while you have the other (usually the babe) who can't sleep unless the bedsheet is new or bed is laid. Imagine a scenario where the former goes to bed before the latter. WW3 Loading....

Just as is the case with MLK, people don’t like to mention the late, anticapitalist views of Malcolm X too much.

This thread is Malcolm X on both Capitalism and Socialism... in his own words.
At a symposium in May of 1964, when asked what political and economic systems he wanted, Malcolm X stated:

“I don't know.

But I'm flexible.

As was stated earlier, all of the countries that are emerging today from under the shackles of colonialism are turning toward Socialism.”
“I don't think it's an accident.

Most of the countries that were colonial powers were capitalist countries, and the last bulwark of Capitalism today is America.“
