In addition to all the good answers previously given, a conductor interprets what the composer has written. And different conductors may create very different interpretations of the same piece. They can set the basic tempo faster or slower, they can get the orchestra to really lean in to a particular musical phrase or de-emphasise it, they can bring out the horns at one point or hush them a bit and let us focus on the oboe or piccolo… A good conductor has studied and notated the entire score for some time before they and the orchestra even begin to rehearse.
So, part of that bow at the end can be to say, “what do you think of this interpretation compared to all the other times you’ve heard this famous symphony?” Then they usually turn around and wave the orchestra members to stand, which means, “and didn’t these guys do a great job executing it!?”
That’s a trans ✝️ symbol now, see? https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/37119853 (If I didn’t link it right, someone plz post it correctly)


Are we ready for Lexington and Concord? Because anyone who’s still clinging to the hope peaceful protesting will hold off martial law all the way to the election in November is about to get their fingers stomped on by ICE


Good for them, turning their natural instinct to play hooky into a legitimate political statement. Support for too many kids who can’t come to school in the first place because they’re hiding from ICE. And for the people (immigrants and citizens alike) who have been injured, kidnapped and/or killed by ICE, Border Patrol and DHS.


I would. Oscar’s the freeest muppet, he lives by his own rules. (And his garbage can is bigger on the inside, so that includes the laws of physics)


They put families in danger every day


Anyone who doesn’t think he’d be happy with Iran levels of protester killing is naive


Better to paint ICE on the front door for everyone to see (best to do so in ICE cosplay and keep that mask up)


More likely “Donald J Trump and Martin L King Day”


Most of them are veterans, ie retired US soldiers, college has nothing to do with it. Illegal would be if they volunteered to serve for an enemy country were were at war with. As for any profit, they’re probably getting fed and housed by Ukraine but they aren’t getting rich. Oh I guess their family is probably still drawing their veterans benefits, but we all know those aren’t generous, especially under this administration.


Individuals from other countries have been volunteering in other countries since time immemorial, dude. Enough American flyers went over to help the RAF they had their own squadron long before the US officially entered WWII. Before 1917, the Lafayette Flying Corps in WWI France. Also, ever heard of the French Foreign Legion? It’s in the name. Hemingway, Spanish Civil War, the bell tolls for thee. Lord Byron fought for Greek independence from the Ottoman Empire. And untold numbers of people have joined battles in other countries, whether they were inspired by a cause or simply because they happened to be there.


Is there any other way to read that if we didn’t know he’s dead? Like, maybe the short route home from prison would be to give up the location and code to his other secret safe with the video of Trump raping a 14 year old or sucking off Clinton


Should have been “over the abuse, rape, and exploitation of girls.”
Also probably extortion of other pedophiles for profit and power


I agree but the problem is, her daddy is Secretary of Transportation, while TSA is under DHS.


If we as a society could just start treating sexual abuse victims with respect and kindness, there’d be no justification for redactions and the whole truth could come out.
Sadly, not gonna happen.


That chart doesn’t include “Naturalized Citizenship.” A naturalized citizen (for example, Arnold Schwarzenegger or Melania Trump) was born elsewhere but has been vetted and tested and taken an oath to become a citizen. They can vote, and serve on a jury, and work a federal job, and be Governor of California, but they can’t be President.
And now Trump is trying to revoke the citizenship of all the ones he doesn’t like. He’s also trying to revoke the birthright citizenship of the children of immigrants.


Hey, FreshParsnip, I’d just like to point out that JoeBigelow wasn’t really contradicting your original comment (the one I’m replying to) but rather they were amplifying it. Their point was to emphasize the racism of ICE against her “crime of brownness.”
Not only was she “in the country legally,” she also has the further rights and responsibilities of being a citizen. For instance, she can vote for for President. Beyond that, being a birthright citizen, she can run for the office and BE President.
A “legal resident,” according to federal statutes, is defined as a person who has met certain legal requirements and received papers entitling them to live here, but cannot legally vote, or serve on a jury, or some other rights reserved for citizens.
JoeBigelow could definitely have used better syntax, or stuck a “just” in there after “even”.
And your original point, about ICE being a danger to everyone regardless of how many rights they’re supposed to have, is perfect. They’re fascist thugs.
But your anger is misdirected. Save it for the real enemy.
No, the Senate Dems funded everything except ICE until like October but only 2 weeks for ICE (should be none, but oh well)
House has to approve the same bill but Republicans are stalling now, because they want ICE to be fully funded.
