Twitter post on the history Chechnya

Saving this for now, this guy tweeted his history of Chechnya, for later reading...   News about 10 000 Chechen troops leaving to Ukraine alarmed many. And yet, one must know context to understand its meaning. Many assume that after Putin's victory Chechnya became just part of Russia and thus Chechen troops are just Russian regulars of Chechen origin.

Leeds United v. Tottenham Hotspur | PREMIER LEAGUE HIGHLIGHTS | 2/26/202...

Image
Wow! Great bounce back after the loss midweek. Conte must've really gotten on them at practice. And Kane and Son take the Premier League record. That first run by Son was sweet, but could've had a better finish. However, that pass from Kane for the Son goal was just amazing. Deadly goal by Kulu and excellent work by Doherty too. Great defending today too, lots of luck of Tottenham's side today, but they played well too. 💫 The deadliest duo in Premier League history! 🔥 Heung-Min Son & Harry Kane combine to break the all-time record for @premierleague goal combinations! pic.twitter.com/shkdh0NSPJ — Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) February 26, 2022

from the comments: What I love about his chart is under the “Luck”, he posted the following things to do.  -reading (as a fact he reads inspirational books) - pick up trashes (This we know already…right? Wherever he goes, he’s always picking up trashes saying that trashes are the luck other people threw away) - respect the umpire (This, too, were displayed in many occasions during this past season) - take good care of equipment (This is something about all little league players learn in Japan) - Cleaning up your room (Many spiritual leaders talk about this. If you have cluttered room, no good energy will flow) - Greeting (This is also something we are taught “important “ in Japan from early age. - Think positive  - Become a player people want to support (love)

Culture today (work in progress)

I grew up during postmodernism, the time after modernism when culture questioned modernism's search for truth and meaning, instead embracing multiple meanings and perspectives.  But I've been trying to figure out where we are now. While architecture has moved onto parametricism, society is for sure in the digital age, but the digital age doesn't really describe the culture as much as material situation. I'm beginning to see how society has been effected by the digital age (or how it has changed in general), and it seems to be some kind of almost fractured pre-modernism. With information being so easily and widely spread by anyone, so many ideas and worldviews that would have been remained fringe in the past have been able to gain major traction. The ideas of postmodernism seem to have been a highpoint in intellectual thought, and that traditional is carried forth by fewer and fewer, but it seems cultural and intellectual progress has receded in favor of technological pr
