Reciting Euripides while waiting for surgery

Evoi! 🤟🏻
If love be not in the house there is nothing
The voice of famine unheard
How came beauty against this blackness
Twice beauty under the elms
To be saved by squirrels and bluejays?
Tomorrow, once the X I I I shall be consummated, at the hospital room I’ll be reciting the Bacchae—in the extraordinary translation of Carles Riba. Not because I can’t recite Euripides’ original Greek, but because there hasn’t been any classical translator in the world like Carles Riba. And perchance, he did translate into my mother tongue—the most motherly of all the 11 languages I speak: Catalan.
Tofa’t, tofa’t de verd artíjol
amb les seves boniques baies,
vela’t bàquicament
The bull run is a real thing. In everything. Digne taure.
Evoi! 🤟🏻
(Not so unrelated rave pic)
The vanity of unsigned, stillborn contracts burns and becomes smoke that the wind carries far, far away.
Came not by usura Angelico.

I missed many opportunities in the past (better not to comment too much on this.) I want to get in for good but don’t know much how to although probably it is quite easy. Is there a good 101 to begin with?

If you cook with beef tallow a lot like I do and are looking for high-quality brands, check these out.
Lineage is regenerative, grass-fed and finished, and third party tested for glyphosate. h/t nostr:npub14am887cf6kvwkce89nt7dsw3v9qrrn0uppxyvr6a2jd7xdwuwccqwnudp2
Fond is also regenerative and grass-finished and has some cool flavored options.
Should be noted that you can also make your own tallow or get some from a local butcher or rancher. This is often cheaper.
The lineage beef tallow is amazing!
Today someone from the village stopped my wife to yell at her because we write poetry in our own house walls with a piece of charcoal.
My wife nicely said “no entenc” and left. This is the right attitude of freedom.

Protecting “this” is an abstraction.
Protecting this isn’t.
Post real things.

The Pacific Palisades are briefly mentioned in my novel ‘El tigre’. Today this neighborhood in Los Angeles has entirely disappeared. It is also the ending of an understanding of a way of life and wealth in America.
The king is in the house.

Quan un món/ordre/època expira sempre mira amb recel el que ve. Pot venir una cosa dolenta o una de bona, o ambdues. Som amos de les nostres idees i les nostres accions: això crea el present i el futur.
