The frozen ground of the Altai Mountains preserved this beautifully detailed Scythian woman's boot for over 2,300 years.
The leather boot was decorated with a red woollen braid, with leather figurines and gold-leaf, possibly depicting ducklings.

The final season of White Lotus will be in Israel.

"To assert a proposition is to make oneself responsible for it, without any definite forfeit, it is true, but with a forfeit no smaller for
being unnamed"
"it is the connection of an indicative word to a symbolic word which makes an assertion"
The natural occupation of human children is scurrying.
I'm an abolition abolitionist. I believe that society has evolved beyond the need to discuss actions in eliminative terms, except in this case. The hypocrisy is essential to my ethic.

I bet if you could ask dogs about the most frustrating part of being companion animals to humans specifically the dogs would point out that we have these digits that look like really fun chew toys but we humans don't let the dogs gnaw on them.
Working on a new satirical paradigm: what if,,, people countenanced moral and social questions of the highest significance,, but still act'ed like idiots?.
Maybe this is where the Arendtian analysis comes in handy? Most people experience life most of the time as animal laborans, who is immersed in the cycles of nature. Even homo faber has to gradually and incrementally strive out of a naturally-informed disposition.
As *ahem* a true elite, I am one of the zoon politikon who strikes forth into the risk and self-definition of human affairs unconditioned by nature.
It's really fucking weird talking to eco people for me. Like... Do you not realize that your subjectivity is coming from inside you? There's this special constellation of nerves and anatomy that make it possible for you to use signs and that's why we're talking. There's really nothing of truth, beauty, or justice in nature per se. It merely informs human responses that expose the freedom that they bring from within.
I just took a nature-relatedness inventory and I think that this is probably my most uncommon character trait. I have demonstrated a very very low sense of relatedness to nature. I don't have anything against it but it seems like a category error to think of nature in most of the declarations supplied on the inventory. It seems like getting weepy over neon triangles or something. Nature's over there and I'm over here. I feel like I'm the only one who has his head in straight in this issue.
I know this has been said before, but *holy shit* is this all that it's ever been? Countless numbers of broken people grasping desperately at fake solutions and violating vital norms to cover the difference?
