— Did you post that video (of your rant about social injustices)?

— Why, man? It won't change anything. Leave it alone.

— You really think you want to leave it alone?

— Does it make a difference if I post it?

— Isn't it the only way to change all this, by taking action? Tony, you express yourself admirably.

And I think that whoever speaks wants to be heard. You constantly feel voiceless. You've told me that before.

The book, your favorite book (To Kill a Mockingbird), talks about that too. Not having a voice. You want to be heard, Tony. You want to have your voice.

I can't be in your shoes or understand what you're going through. The only thing I can do is try to make you listen to yourself. So that you can find your way.

And I also know that this video, if it stays stored on your phone, it won't be seen. It won't be heard.

If you want to have a voice, you need to give people the opportunity to hear and see it.

Posting the video is like screaming in the middle of a crowd. Someone will hear.

This can be important to many, many people. Don't you think? Isn't that what you want so much?

— Yeah… I have to think about it.

at the start of every month everyone reblogs some insane poetry that’s like “august has arrived and again I swallow my bones in the burning sun” and every time I’m like damn that makes no sense. but kind of true.

Illusions perdues (Honoré de Balzac, 1837)

"À seize ans, Florine était maigre. Sa beauté, comme un bouton de fleur plein de promesses, ne pouvait plaire qu’aux artistes qui préfèrent les esquisses aux tableaux."

Illusions perdues (Honoré de Balzac, 1837)

"C’était bien le bellâtre que ses antécédents annonçaient ; mais l’âge l’avait déjà doté d’un petit ventre rond assez difficile à contenir dans les bornes de l’élégance."

Hey, I wanted to ask how you were doing with the forest fires. We have the smoke all the way in cologne and that is after 2 days of heavy rainfall, it must be really intense in your region. Are you and your family okay?

yes I'm okay thanks for asking

I'm nowhere near the fire but the smoke indeed travels far and wide, I know that people in Luxembourg got phone alerts about poor air quality

it was intense on Sunday and Monday, the smell was awful, and you'd feel the irritation in your respiratory system, but it was better today

that being said, the fire is an ecological catastrophe, The High Fens are the biggest nature reserve in the country with a very rich and peculiar flora/fauna, and a lot of it has gone up in flames
