open.substack.com/pub/ursulapf... Here is the 4th excerpt from "50 Years Later: The Way I Saw It" by Regine Faust, my Berlin grandmother. These excerpts work as standalones, but it’s best to scroll back and begin at the beginning, "A Small Circle of Art School Friends." Thanks for reading!

Luxembourg will not renew Israel Bonds for sale in Europe. Ireland, the current host country, and other EU states, must do the same and say no to Israel bonds since the proceeds could contribute to Israel’s genocide and other atrocity crimes against Palestinians.

Thought for the day: It never ceases to amaze me how today's techbros' vision of the future they want defaults to fully automated leopard-face-chomping neo-feudalism rather than fully automated luxury gay space communism.

You might be wondering how you can support an author when you're short of time, money, energy, etc. But honestly, making your own post about a book helps us! The more people who are talking about a book? Well, that's how buzz begins. You can do that on whatever sites you use.

Home now from a visit to Europe to see family and friends. #RothkoAFirenze a highlight especially the pairings at San Marco, where Rothko responds to the Fra Angelico frescoes, five hundred years later. In spite of everything we can also still be transported by art.

A quatrocento fresco of Jesus on the wall of a cell at San Marco in Florence. Beside it is exhibited an abstract painting by Mark Rothko chosen for its similar hues of pink and pastel blue.

Let's get some clear numbers on the Bruce rebuild. Some environmentalists are pro-nuclear because it's a step away from fossil fuels. However, the waste disposal problem is still with us. Here, OCAA focuses on cost. Nuclear is losing credibility now that the price of wind and solar is dropping.

Black Locust from yesterday's walk. I was in Toronto recently looking after my dad and was amazed by the varieties of magnolia in the Republic of Rathnellly. Spring is a bit later here and the truth is I prefer wild trees in bloom to fancy magnolia cultivars, pretty as they are.
