First #opera of the season! Glorious NABUCCO at the Met tonight. Chorus are effing heroes - this is a very heavy chorus opera and they're ALSO doing the Verdi Requiem. Yes, like any good Jew, I shed a few tears during "Va, pensiero".Cast fantastic, and I definitely want to hear more of tenor SeokJong Baek, who made his debut tonight as Ismaele. #classicalmusic

@CuriousZelda@universeodon.com This reminds me of a story of a very poor woman of Chelm (the Jewish Town Of Fools) who put 2lbs of butter on a table and walked away - and her cat immediately ate the butter. The woman was furious and threatened to kill the cat.
"Wait a minute," her husband said, "can we be sure it was the cat who ate the butter? Let's weigh it and see." So he weighs the cat and it weighs exactly 2lbs.
"There's the proof!" says the woman. "The damned cat ate the butter!"
"There's the butter, all right," agreed the husband, "but where's the CAT?" 🤣
@feditips Although REALLY long links can be unsightly.
Think this may be bad sunburn that's taking over a month to heal. I'm diabetic. However sunburn on other arm healed a few weeks ago, so it might be rash/infection. Been putting aloe, honey on it. Should I go see doctor? Doesn't hurt, itches/stings.
