An old clip from a #Chomsky lecture on the Madisonian Democracy. This clip is his response to a question based on an assumption that Chomsky completely destroys, and then to a reframing of the question that, once again, Chomsky destroys. I love it.

Instead, he and a friend were taken to a base, outfitted with weapons, and sent against their will to the front lines of a war they never intended to join.

We're experimenting with different singing styles and ideas, and he would like to sing Gloria Estefan's "Con Los Años Que Me Quedan", despite only having basic schoolboy Spanish.
Would you be interested in making an audio recording of yourself speaking the lyrics very, very slowly - *very* slowly (no need to sing!) - just on a phone would be absolutely fine.

#Cuba’s Worsening Food Crisis Means US Blockade Must End Now, Not Later https://www.counterpunch.org/2023/08/17/cubas-worsening-food-crisis-means-us-blockade-must-end-now-not-later/
#TIL that #GDR (East #Germany, #DDR) still exists. Well, in a way.
In early '70s Fidel Castro visited GDR. There was much kissing and hugging, and then leaders went on to serious business. Namely, #Cuba got access to GDR state-owned company Nordsternzucker VEB Halle, for re-export of Cuban sugar, and GDR... well, GDR got an island. Ernst-Thälmann-Insel, formerly Cayo Blanco del Sur.
Formally uninhabited, the island got one citizen, Ernst Thälmann himself, in form of a stone bust. A German singer Frank Schöbel recorded song “Insel im Golf von Cazones” (Island in Cazones Bay) there, and that would be it.
Twenty-something years later, Germany has reunited. Unification treaty was long, boring and detailed as only Germans can do.
It does not mention the island.
So, it was never “reunited” with West Germany and thus should remain the last GDR territory. Unfortunately, Cuba's stance now is that the gift was “purely symbolic” and GDR, well, does not feel well enough to put any claims...
