Jaeger-LeCoultre

Jaeger-LeCoultre has unveiled a timepiece inspired by the Shahnameh, the legendary Persian "Book of Kings." Crafted with the precision of Swiss watchmaking and the soul of Persian artistry, this exquisite watch is a celebration of millennia-old tales carved into the soul of a culture.

"The Reverso Tribute Enamel Shahnameh watch features a guilloché dial with a wave motif on the front and a green Grand Feu enamel finish, inviting the wearer to discover the magic of the famous Book of Kings (Shahnameh in Persian) written by Ferdowsi. The reverse of the watch features a miniature painting enhanced with gold leaves (24k, 999/1000) and vivid colours that tell the story of a king and his valets on horseback searching for the princely son lost in the mountains, soon to be rescued by a magical bird. In a flurry of shapes and colours, this scene is the result of several know-how. The reverse, on a surface measuring just 2 cm2, our Métiers Rares™ bears the fruit of 100 hours spent by the craftsmen on enamelling and oven work."

Nowruz 2025

As Nowruz arrives, bringing the promise of renewal and hope, I and other Iranians around the world welcome the new year with a deep longing for true freedom. This ancient celebration of rebirth reflects our unwavering desire to see an end to the occupying regime that has oppressed our people for decades. We dream of a future where Iran is free, where justice prevails, and where every voice can rise without fear. As we embrace the spirit of change, we hold onto the hope that this year will mark the beginning of a liberated and sovereign Iran.

Your Scarf

In 2023, Mehdi Yarrahi dared to sing a song titled Roosarito (Your Scarf):
https://youtu.be/7ChZablq2OY?si=64Qct7l8tqBBiy0-

For singing this song, the occupying regime in Iran arrested, jailed, and tortured him before releasing him on bail (a ridiculously large amount of money). Finally, he was tried and sentenced. 

Yarrahi explains everything in a recent video (which has English subtitles): https://youtu.be/FHumzB_kaMw?si=GzYWCNcuArfCtEzQ

Today, finally, the last part of his sentence, 74 lashes, was completed.

Yarrahi has not been allowed to work during this time, and even though he is now officially released and his sentence is done, he is still suffering physically, mentally, ... and financially. 

Mehdi Yarrahi has always stood with the people, fighting alongside them with his music. We can support him by listening to his songs on YouTube.

He is also on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mehdiyarrahi

January 7

Since the beginning of the Woman-Life-Freedom movement in Iran, the IRGC, the Islamic Republic Guard Corps currently occupying Iran, have murdered countless Iranian athletes — simply because they were physically strong. Two such beautiful athletes were hanged two years ago today. Their names were Mohammad Hosseini and Mohammad Mehdi Karami.

Questions

I have so many questions:

How do I teach the cat to use the litterbox?

Where is Toomaj Salehi?
#ToomajSalehi

Should I make cat treats based on a recipe by someone who writes "irregardless"?

How many more times will the occupying regime in Iran hack someone's account, add a suicide note, and then murder them?

Why can I taste salt on some days and not on other days?

Will I have time to complete all my writing projects?

What's the point of lightning and thunder without rain?

Will I ever see Nathan Fillion in a series where he doesn't fall in love with a woman who is secretly married to a loser?
#NathanFillion

Should I read the next book in my Kindle library, or should I read the sequel to the book I just read?

Why doesn't the US change the ridiculous quotation punctuation rule now that the printing issue no longer exists?

With big pharma calling the shots and all the insurance fraud going on, what is the meaning of the oath doctors take?
