At 17, our daughter Emerson has just self-published her third book (which is three more than her Dad). If you love fantasy, check out The Book of Destiny! The Book of Destiny: The Glories of Frint a.co/d/80opOAU

A 'small' difference 📐 Vincent created three versions of 'The Bedroom,' with a smaller one intended as a reproduction for his mother. He wanted to show her where he lived, and was proud of the room he had refurbished. The painting you see here is this smaller version, and it is part of the collection of Musée d'Orsay in Paris. It is 57.3 cm high and 73.5 cm wide. In our museum, we have 'The Bedroom’, which measures 72.4 cm x 91.3 cm, while another version can be found at The Art Institute of Chicago, measuring 73.6 x 92.3 cm. 'The Bedroom' was meant to exude 'absolute tranquility’. Have you already seen any of the three paintings? If so, let us know which was your favourite in the comments! 🖼️ ‘Van Gogh's Bedroom in Arles’, 1889 © Musée d’Orsay #vangogh #painting #artist #art #paris

“Find things beautiful as much as you can, most people find too little beautiful.” — Vincent van Gogh

Perhaps the greatest Olympic champion ever produced by the United States. How did he do it? Donuts.

"The moment you begin to censor the writer- and history bears this out in the ugliest of fashions -so begins a process of decay in the body politic that ultimately leads to disaster." Rod Serling Speech, Library of Congress (1968)

Van Gogh often set vibrant yellows against cooler backgrounds like blue-violet night skies. The contrast creates a halo-like glow, as the bright yellows blaze against the darker tones. #artbots #vangogh

La muerte de Jürgen Habermas, cierra una de las últimas voces mayores de la filosofía europea. Su pensamiento estuvo marcado por una pregunta central: cómo reconstruir la legitimidad de la razón después de la barbarie. Desde la tradición de la Escuela de Frankfurt, Habermas heredó la crítica al poder y a la racionalidad instrumental; pero intentó algo más ambicioso: rescatar la posibilidad de una racionalidad comunicativa, es decir, una razón que se realiza no en la dominación, sino en el diálogo. En esa convicción se encuentra su mayor legado para el derecho y la democracia: la idea de que las leyes no son plenamente legítimas por haber sido promulgadas, sino por poder ser justificadas ante todos aquellos a quienes obligan. Hoy su voz se extingue, pero su tesis permanece abierta como una promesa: mientras exista un espacio para la argumentación pública, la democracia seguirá siendo posible.

Girls, but not just girls.

Fred Lynn, Jim Rice and Carl Yastrzemski, 1970s. The three each won an MVP with the Red Sox over the 60s and 70s.

First ballot Hall of Famer.

Economy too weak, prices too high, and war in Iran? The comparison to the 1970s is easy to make. But I think it's the wrong one. I write for @business about the parallels our economy has right now with the mid-aughts. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

No warm-up. No prep. Just AC/DC doing this live 🤘🏻
