i would understand

"Don't tempt me Frodo! I dare not take it. Not even to keep it safe. Understand, I would use this Ring from a desire to do good. But through me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine."

Лорд Евгений Лебедев выступил перед Британским Парламентом с речью о важности исследований продления жизни

Знакомьтесь: Лебедев Евгений Александрович, пожизненный член Палаты лордов Великобритании. Сын Александра Лебедева, бывшего олигарха, бывшего КГБ-шника, бывшего депутата-единоросса. С 8 лет живет в Англии, в 2010 году получил гражданство. Вместе с папой владеет изданиями Evening Standard и The Independent, через которые они поддерживали Бориса Джонсона, который и предложил кандидатуру Лебедева на получение пэрства, за что получил обвинения в коррупции.

Лебедева старшего Канада внесла в санкционный список, хотя сам он себя называет оппозиционером и осуждает вторжение в Украину. 

В мае в The Independent вышла статья, в которой со ссылкой на частное украинское разведывательное агентство утверждалось, что Россия больше не использует Крымский мост для снабжения фронта. На эту статью потом ссылались многие другие издания. Это все тогда сильно критиковал Руслан Левиев, говорил, что расследование либо просто чушь, либо  намеренное вранье, и что мост используется постоянно.

Вот такая небольшая присказка. Из-за нее придется поставить тег политоты, но и без нее никак. 

Не смотря на все вышесказанное, речь Лебедев произнес хорошую, говорил совершенно правильные вещи. Видимо, он этим давно интересуется и, кстати, входит в состав попечителей фонда Hevolution из Саудовской Аравии, который финансирует исследования в области продления жизни.

Лебедев говорил о том, что население стремительно стареет, что надвигается медицинский кризис и нужны новые подходы. Что нужно относиться к старению как к болезни, что нужно бороться с основными причинами старения, а не с симптомами. Говорил про холмарки старения, про эпигенетическое репрограммирование, и что Великобритания может стать мировым лидером в области продления жизни.

Даже при всей мутности фигуры Лебедева, хорошо, что тема продления жизни выходит на уровень политики и такие речи звучат на самом высоком уровне.

Hello comrades, go to my pixiv. There is something good.

Ну и как это не запостить без того самого монолога

OK. That's what I'll do. I'll tell you a story. Can you hear them? All these people who lived in fear of you and your judgement. All these people whose ancestors devoted themselves...sacrificed themselves to you. Can you hear them singing? Oh you like to think you're a God! But you're not a God! You're just a parasite eating out of jealousy and envy and longing for the lives of others. You feed on them! And the memory of love and loss and birth and death and joy and sorrow so...so...come on then. Take mine. Take my memories. I hope you've got a big appetite. Because I have lived a long life. And I have seen a few things. I walked away from the last great Time War, I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the birth of the universe and I watched as time ran out. Moment by moment until nothing remained, no time, no space, just me! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a mad man! And I have watched universes freeze and creations burn! I have seen things you wouldn't believe! I have lost things you will never understand! And I know things! Secrets that must never be told, knowledge that must never be spoken! Knowledge that would make parasite Gods blaze! So come on then! Take it! Take it all baby! Have it! You have it all!

Аннотация от автора:

I loved Rarity in her detective outfit.  I realized that she had a potential foe already in the show: Cheerilee.  Her 'Smooth Criminal' hat gave me the perfect excuse to create a little cat n' mouse game with our resident ponies. 

Frenetic.  The past two days were just that.  She was hot on my tail and no matter what I did I just could not shake her.  By now I’m sure she has a good idea of who it is she's pursuing.  Not that I’d stop to ask her.  No, my only goal was to stay one step ahead of her, literally and figuratively.  But Sweet Celestia, she was making it difficult.

This whole mess began a week ago.  I had stopped in Twilight’s castle to borrow a book.  The princess was out so I spoke to her assistant.  Spike took my request with all the enthusiasm and attention of baked potato learning calculus.  I had clearly interrupted some other task or activity of his.  Now, either I misinterpreted the rules on returning the book or he simply offered a shoddy explanation.  That remains to be determined.

I took the book, expecting to return it in two weeks’ time.  Somehow, none of that was not conveyed to Twilight. 

I had taken the book with me when I had gone to visit a friend in Canterlot.  It was there that I discovered that I was a suspect. I overheard gossip at a local cafe: One of the princess's favorite books had been stolen.  Well isn't that just fine?  I retreated to my hotel room, paranoid that everypony knew I was a fugitive.  I paced, trying to calm myself.  I looked out the window.  Then I saw her.  In the square below she stood out quite well in her detective outfit.  That silly thing.  Yet I knew she meant business.  I left in haste.         

I would be remiss if I failed to mention that I am wholly unaccustomed to being pursued in such a manner.  Yet here I am, racing through dank alleyways in a part of Canterlot barely fit for Diamond Dogs.  The posh and glamour of the city during the day dissipated into a fog of debauchery and grime during the night.  How quaint. What worried me more than the grim and shady characters was that I found enjoyment in being chased.  There was a thrill that teaching just couldn't provide. 

I found I had to do more than just keep moving.  Like a changeling at a costume party, I had to be everypony.  Disguises became my friends.  This little getup you see here is quite fetching, if I'm being honest.  But fashion talk will have to wait.  At this point I simply want to get back to Twilight before Rarity can find me.  Then I'd win.

I could easily explain the situation to Twilight.  She's amenable and forgiving of misunderstanding.  Rarity, however, would be less likely to believe such a tale.  Congenial and understanding is her natural state.  When she plays detective, however, she becomes less hospitable to stories and alibis, no matter their veracity. I’m not allowing myself to be turned in like some common criminal.  Therefore, I run.
