These are the flowers that were on my wife Emma's coffin yesterday. Exactly what I asked for - wild and free and joyous. How Vicky the florist managed to find such beautiful blooms in the middle of December is a mystery.

PRESENTING - The Maharani of Mysore painting! Preserving the historic legacy of India gems and jewels on canvas. My painting is a reminder that we too are modern-day Maharanis (queen) and Maharajas (king) in our own lives. We are luminous as the diamonds and gemstones. 🧵...

Just in time for the #WitchingHour : on #Halloween we often feature stereotypical #witches with pointy hats & warts on their noses 🧙‍♀️but let’s spare a thought for the many 1000s wrongly accused of #witchcraft, in Early Modern Europe, and TODAY in many parts of the 🌍 #WitchHunts
Henry Lee@fotoeins

Hunting for #witches: then and now. Witches are a fixture in pop culture, but being considered a witch can be dangerous even today. Reporter @khelmst investigates the history of witch hunts for @dw_culture on DW. dw.com/en/arts-unveil… (26 minutes, in English) #Halloween

VISION - ed of 10. Exploring the symbolism of diamonds. NFTs opened up a new world of expression. I started animating my hand-painted works in 3D, using motion to expand my narratives, meaning & symbolism. I have always viewed my art as timeless. Now thanks to the blockchain.

With 90% of the vote counted, it's clear the democratic opposition in Poland just defeated the national-conservative autocratic ruling party. I know that there are a lot of terrible things happening right now, but this, finally, is actual good news: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

I am 34 y.o. Belarusian living in exile in Poland. FIRST time in my life I will see a peaceful transition of power. To opposition. After democratic elections. With 73% turnout. My message to you - value and protect your democracy. You can't even imagine what a miracle you have.

At the height of their power, Polish aristocrats believed that they were descended from ancient Iranian tribes and started dressing like Ottomans to justifying their domination of the peasantry (More soon on this for @meduza_en’s The Beet newsletter)

This is why the Balkans are good. Everyone believes something insane of their own! The Croats are descended from Iranian Goths. Aliens built pyramids in Bosnia. Serbs are the oldest nation in the world. The Roman and Ottoman Empires were secretly Albanian. Montenegrins are real

Five years after Jamal Khashoggi's brutal assassination sent shockwaves around the world, the path to justice for his killing remains fully blocked. Instead, Saudi authorities continue their crackdown on freedom of speech. An investigation must be conducted into his killing.
