> I think I'm quiet, calm, and kind of introverted. But when I'm with the members, I really like teasing and messing around, and I think I enjoy talking with people too.
>We've been on the charts for 3 weeks straight now, and we've made it to the top 40. So I'm really moved by that.
>What's so unbelievable about this is that the sunbaenims you mentioned are such accomplished people, so our name coming after theirs, I think like, "is this a lie?" It really doesn't feel real.
>Yes. With the members, we found out while we were just eating at our dorm. So we were like "huh?"
So when we ask the company staff, "did we really make it on the charts??"
They say "you really did it!!"
So when they congratulate us too, that's when it feels a little more real. And we're just so thankful.
>When I was young, I was really shy around strangers. I was really bashful. I had a hard time speaking out, I was just a quiet child, I think.
>While watching idols, I'd enjoy dancing/singing, but in secret, alone. But in front of people, should I say I was still embarrassed to? It was that kind of feeling.
Interviewer: Like, "I'd like to be on the shining stage too"
Go Won: yes, yes.
>We did a showcase too, and when we did our concert, we did it at the same venue that Oh My Girl did theirs at. I had only watched from the seats before, but being onstage singing and dancing at that spot, I choked up a bit, I think.
>I started going to singing and dancing lessons, and the academies would offer chances to go to auditions. I attended those auditions.
Interviewer: One&Only.
Go Won: Yes, One&Only.
Interviewer: You must've had some uncertainties in debuting so quickly though, things moved so fast.
And while dancing I had to wear a dress and dress shoes/heels, and I found that I couldn't.
Go Won: Yes, internally I was strongly thinking, "Oh I want to do this and that and show them something good," but it was so awkward, so none of that came out on the outside.
>I first thought that I needed to raise my confidence. Even for dancing, I thought that I was not good enough, so I asked the members too. Yves told me that at first she really wasn't sure about me early on.
Interviewer: your favorite performance as LOONA?
Go Won: Butterfly - I have a part where I'm lifted in the air, you see.
Now they raise me up easily, but at first I was so scared, my legs trembled so much as I was lifted.
>Doing concerts, or doing the fanmeetings? In those moments I really feel like I'm directly interacting with the fans. During rehearsal I'd wonder "why am I so tired today?" but when I see the fans, energy just comes out of nowhere.
>Having comebacks more often in the future, and getting a music show win again.. 😁
So that when people ask "do you know LOONA?" others say "Yeah I do know LOONA" - I'd like for us to make the group more well known
Final words?
>I'm a much better person than you might think! 😁 I seem quiet and stuff, but I'm good in conversations and like talking. Let's try getting to know each other 😁

As someone\u2019s who\u2019s read the book, this review strikes me as tremendously unfair. It mostly faults Adler for not writing the book the reviewer wishes he had! https://t.co/pqpt5Ziivj
— Teresa M. Bejan (@tmbejan) January 12, 2021
The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x
Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x
The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x
It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x

There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.
Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan.

Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.

This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
It was Ved Vyas who edited the eighteen thousand shlokas of Bhagwat. This book destroys all your sins. It has twelve parts which are like kalpvraksh.
In the first skandh, the importance of Vedvyas
and characters of Pandavas are described by the dialogues between Suutji and Shaunakji. Then there is the story of Parikshit.
Next there is a Brahm Narad dialogue describing the avtaar of Bhagwan. Then the characteristics of Puraan are mentioned.
It also discusses the evolution of universe.( https://t.co/2aK1AZSC79 )
Next is the portrayal of Vidur and his dialogue with Maitreyji. Then there is a mention of Creation of universe by Brahma and the preachings of Sankhya by Kapil Muni.

The story doesn\u2019t say you were told not to... it says you did so without approval and they tried to obfuscate what you found. Is that true?

In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.
In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.
This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.
In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
