Marcelino dos Santos, born on this day in 1929, was a Mozambican poet, revolutionary, and politician who co-founded the Frente de Libertação de Moçambique (FRELIMO-Mozambican Liberation Front) in 1962. Santos served as the party's deputy president from 1969 to 1977.
After Mozambique won its independence, Santos served in its government in a variety of capacities over the next several decades: as Minister of Economic Development, Chairman of the country's parliament, the Assembly of the Republic, and, towards the end of his life, a member of the Frelimo Central Committee.
Under the pseudonyms Kalungano and Lilinho Micaia, he published his early poems in "O Brado Africano". Under his real name, the Associação dos Escritores Moçambicanos (Mozambican Writers' Association) published his work "Canto do Amor Natural".

playing Akinator

next question: "Does your character live at [My street address]?"
:oh-shit:
Sneaking into the Facebook groups of a recently unsuccessful strike and subtly doing materialism: :big-cool:
Hearing my posts quoted nearly word for word at the gas station: :screm-cool:
And they are kind of the opposite of bred for it, at least in democracies there is some kind of selection process that could theoretically eliminate the worst failsons of current rulers from power, in monarchies there is just a chain of people who got there by luck fucking each other
There's a lady at fencing who's sooo pretty, but she's also so good at fencing. I keep getting distracted by how pretty she is and now my sword arm is covered in bruises
Many women are saying this. And burning down nunneries to rescue their girlfriends and singing opera.
Just submitted a Finals proyect with 2 minutes to spare :meow-tankie:
Watched Fast X last night, shit was rad. They ice a fucking ton of feds in the name of family
:anarchista-chad: make love not war
:expert-shapiro: uh, you don't "make" war
if we’re talking about political ideologies don’t think there’s a group of people i hate more than magacommunists outside of self described fascists and nazis. there’s something about distorting marxism to justify bigotry and imperialism that just makes me so irrationally angry
I feel like I'm the opposite of most people in that I love watching films but can't be bothered to invest myself in a TV show.
me lazy not want make many choice what watch
simple 1 choice give many entertain
it's kinda funny when someone says they go to therapy and then you're like "ok then why the fuck arent you changing at all"
I understand why people are tense about anti-therapy chatter because of how hard it is for most people to get mental healthcare anyways - but damn they let anyone be a therapist. Just based on the ones I've met IRL. Never been (evidently). But I can't imagine trying to find one in a minefield of quacks and dead numbers (another huge issue I've heard).
