The #Founders ' biggest mistake was worrying only about a monarchical tyrant, and assuming that #tradition, #honor, #enlightenment, #voters, and/or #shame would keep #dolts like #Tuberville from breaking the #government.
Unfortunately, the #GOP #conservatives care nothing for tradition, their honor is performative, they equate enlightenment with "woke," they think shame is a way to attack their opponents, and their voters in our binary system keep returning them to DC.

2. "gajawadana beduwe" by K.J. Yesudas
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRzJwhnpKAM
"gajawadana" conjugates the words gaja (गज elephant) and wadana (वदन face) to simply mean "elephant face".
"beduwe" (ಬೇಡುವೆ) is a Kannada word to mean "I plead."
Together, "gajawadana beduwe" means "I plead/appeal to the one with elephant face".

To end, here are Carnatic renderings of two popular songs on Ganesha:
1. "lambodara lakumikara" by S. Janaki
(the first song a student of Carnatic music learns)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqZQdryENoo
"lambodara" combines lamba (लम्ब) and udara (उदर) to mean "large belly".
"lakumikara" conjugates "lakumi" a Kannada aberration of Sanskrit "lakshmi" (लक्ष्मी wealth in this context) and "kara" (कर creator).

Naturally, there are many variations of this story, and it seems the story changes a bit each time it is told, but the essence remains. Also, there are many holes in the story.
However, regardless of the detail, it is important to learn and enjoy the essence, and if you can, enjoy some of the food as well. 😀
BTW the traditional dish for this day is "modaka" (मोदक)

Shiva transplants the elephant head onto the boy, resurrects him, and accepts him as a son. Recognizing the boy's courage and determination, Shiva also makes the boy the head of the gaNa.
And that is how the boy gets an elephant head and also comes to be known as Ganesha: gaNa (troops) + eesha (chief, lord).
#ganesha #ganeshaChaturthi #hindu #myth #India #culture #tradition
[7 / 11]
Shiva calms down after a while and agrees to restore the boy's life. He asks his troops (गण gaNa) to bring him the head of the first being that is sleeping with its head to North.
The troops happen on an elephant asleep with its head to North and promptly bring back its head.

Irked, Shiva insists he be let in and demands that if the boy is indeed Paarwathi's son, then he should abide by the father as well. But the boy stands his ground.
Shiva is now super angry and chops off the boy's head with his trademark trident.
Hearing the boy's cry, Paarwathi comes out running and sees her son dead. She argues Shiva should have seen the boy was only doing as told and pleads his life be restored.
#ganesha #ganeshaChaturthi #hindu #myth #India #culture #tradition
[5 / 11]
It just so happens that Shiva stops by to see Paarwathi, and the vigilant boy stops him too. Shiva politely but firmly informs the boy that he is Shiva, the lord of everything, and BTW also Paarwathi's husband.
The boy acknowledges Shiva but still denies him entry because his mother has ordered that *no one* should be allowed in.
#ganesha #ganeshaChaturthi #hindu #myth #India #culture #tradition

On to the myth:
One day, Shiva's consort Paarwathi (पार्वति) is bathing and makes a figure of a very young boy [think about 10] from her bodily impurity [remember, myth] and breathes life into the figure. She then asks the boy to guard the bathroom door and not let *anyone* in.
The boy stands guard at the door and dutifully shoos away everyone that comes looking for his "mother".

Second, about the name: In Sanskrit, the word Ganesha (गणेश gNaesha, N is hard nasal) is a combination of two words:
गण (gaNa) which means band/army (of troops)
ईश (eesha) which means lord/chief
गण + ईश = गणेश by the grammar rule named "guNa sandhi" (गुणसन्धि )

But first, Ganesha Chaturthi is a rare Hindu holiday observed pretty much all over India, on the same day. However, it is observed with the most fervor in the western state of Maharashtra. If you're ever there late Aug-mid Sep, I highly recommend visiting "Ganesh pendaals", especially in/around Mumbai and Pune. There will be at least one organized installation in every neighborhood.

Today is "Ganesha Chaturthi", a Hindu holiday observing the birth of Lord Ganesha, the Hindu god with the iconic elephant head. Best wishes to all who observe the day.
If you don't know and are interested, here is the myth behind why Ganesha is named so and has an elephant head: 🧵

#Baehr and #Thiel lamented what they saw as the fragmented state of conservative networks, with their hidebound think tanks and intellectual centers that hold sway over right-of-center politics.
A rare bright spot on their side, Baehr and Thiel agreed, was the #FederalistSociety. Thiel had, in fact, served as president of the Stanford Federalist Society.
What if there were a group similar to the Federalist Society for #venture #capitalists or corporate #CEOs or members of the #media?
In 2008, Baehr, Hawley and others launched #Teneo — Latin for “I grasp" or “I endure.”
Hawley, then an associate lawyer in private practice, authored Teneo’s founding principles, according to the new member talk hosted by Baehr, and served on the group’s board.
Its core beliefs align with the broader conservative establishment’s: #limited government, #individual liberty, #free enterprise, #strong national defense and #civil society and belief in a “#transcendent order” that is “founded in #tradition, #philosophy, or #theology.”

#Tradition and the #LindyEffect are descriptive, not prescriptive, observations.
Things stick around for lots of reasons, good and bad — including, but not limited to: coercion, fear, inertia, ossification, taboo, chance, network effects, market failures, sunk costs…
Lots of wrong ideas, unhealthy habits and abhorrent behaviours are “old”.

Navajo 'Tree of Life' hand-woven rug

I placed the winning bid for this wool rug at the Navajo rug auction in Crownpoint, NM. It is about 26" wide by 30" tall and was hand-woven by Helen Kaye of Blue Gap, AZ.
The Crownpoint Rug Auction has been providing an opportunity for Navajo weavers to sell their beautiful rugs (and other crafts) to the public since 1964.

Growing up Russell Wallace lived in the Mt. Pleasant area of Vancouver’s Eastside.
He was the youngest of Flora and Ray Wallace’s 11 children. That home overflowed with singing, with his mom Flora teaching her children Salish songs and stressing the importance of preserving them.
Now Russell is passing along those teachings in workshops at the CREATE! Arts Festival in Vancouver on July 22.

We had our official first meal in the new house. Fresh homemade bread with olive oil, salt, and honey, and some wine. It's a tradition for me to bless a home that way.
Bread, so there will never be hunger. Salt, so life always has flavor. Honey, so life is always sweet. Olive oil, that there is richness and prosperity. And wine, so there is plentiful joy and celebration.

Bret Victor's "Future of Computing" talk is approaching its 10th birthday, so here it is for folks who may have missed it first time around: https://invidious.zapashcanon.fr/watch?v=8pTEmbeENF4
> The '60s and early '70s were a fertile time for #computerscience ideas, reminds Victor, but even more importantly, it was a time of unfettered thinking, unconstrained by programming #dogma, #authority, and #tradition. 'The most dangerous thought that you can have as a #creative person is to think that you know what you're doing,' explains Victor. 'Because once you think you know what you're doing you stop looking around for other ways of doing things and you stop being able to see other ways of doing things. You become blind.' He concludes, 'I think you have to say: "We don't know what programming is. We don't know what computing is. We don't even know what a computer is." And once you truly understand that, and once you truly believe that, then you're free, and you can think anything.'"

I love the way traditional or vernacular architecture tells you about the local landscape and geology. In my native Berkshire, many buildings are built with warm, orange bricks made from the beautiful Thames Valley clay. I don’t live in the county any more but I feel emotionally connected to those colours and textures. This is a bit of embroidery I’m working on whilst mulling that all over.
