The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent

Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

LOL - whatever happened to "believe all women?" You mean some of them aren't always telling the truth? How is that possible? Say it ain't so! :o

Considering Dylan's tour and recording sessions are well documented (with dates and various hangers-on throughout), she better hope she did her homework.
Here's a preliminary list of Dylan's flames. Conveniently for her, most are dead.

Dagblog posters have made a turn for the much better over the past few years. JS. :)

Thanks for adding that; I didn't alert you to it missing because your point was clear. BUT is actually real interesting in that most people, especially men, can't really rid themselves of being attracted to one or two select physical types even if they try (is that deep in the DNA? an evolution thing?) But he's was amazingly allover the map in partners! He really did have wide ranging tastes! It like jives with him being a totally cerebral type person, he was attracted to minds and personalties, not physical types. or at the very least open to all kinds of women as lovers.

I hadn't really thought about it but mine's all over the place as well, or at least was, tho I'm sure overall Bob ran with much richer talent.
BTW, the one Dylan Chronicles book i read was really good, not in a groupie way, but just giving a feel for where he was, thought processes and transitions he was going through. One passage was him being unsure in middle age when going out on tour with the Dead, so he walked out of rehearsal, happened to walk by an afternoon practice session of some jazz singer who was busting it 5-6 hours a night for years, figured out how to treat his voice different after all that time - adjusting to aging reality, but finding a different place and spark. Or the idea that Dylan took his kids sailing around the Caribbean for a year.

well it's just that I get a wee bit cynical when it's over 50 years ago , there is no other evidence of pedophilia against him, now 80 years old, and she's 62 now, approaching retirement, time to think about finances...
PLUS, might as well throw this in that I just saw that there is a cynicism problem with "Times Up", how appropriate:

I think that there is a group of people out there that just thinks this is the thing to do now. A lot of the accusations made against Marilyn Manson included stuff he wrote about in a mass produced book well over 20 years ago.
by Orion on Sat, 08/21/2021 - 11:36pm
Nope - Trent Reznor won't even talk to Manson because he thinks he's so toxic. Breakup with Evan Rachel Wood was 2007, and she testified about it to Congress (domestic abuse) in 2018. So no, not pre-history. Yes, it is possible that Manson's stuff is just being-a-sick-badass schtick, but it appears not. Wolf Alice's lead found him upskirting her with a GoPro after 2014 (she had to negotiate with his team for him to delete it);. Bianca's charges are from 2011.
by PeraclesPlease on Sun, 08/22/2021 - 5:35am
Trent Reznor stopped talking to Marilyn Manson back in the late 1990s. He even made a song about his dislike for him called "Starfuckers Inc."

Do note the account there that I am quoting, that's quite some amazing conspiracy they found out about!

Well Nicholson & Beatty were quite the pussy hounds during that period (Polanski was minor league comoaritively - oops, i mean...)
Took 49 years to get the nerve up - she'll be lucky if Beatty's still alive for the finale.
