Davant el silenci i el manteniment dels acords preferencials que la Unió Europea manté amb Israel, penseu: Què representaria per Barcelona la mort per bombardeig de 30.000 veïns? És l'equivalent del que ha patit #Gaza... fins ara.

If you have the sheer skill to bankrupt a string of casinos… Your next challenge is bankrupting a Western country.

M'encanta no mirar les notícies per un dia sencer i perdre la info del metro de Barna... La volta que he de fer ara és bona. Massa "detox" de xarxes socials fa que les coses importants no t'arribin a temps. Bé, què hi farem.

if your feminism is built entirely on disgust of "men are hurting women" and not a desire to give women equality and agency in society then you're just going to be a reactionary one day. negative polarization makes you dumber and more panicked.

It is becoming unbelievably difficult to stay both informed and sane

Liberalism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be Good People who are allowed to do bigotry to Bad People but against whom bigotry is bad, alongside Bad People who are not allowed to do bigotry against Good People but against whom bigotry is good.

We should appropriate China's concept of Heaven's Mandate (天命) for a hot second so that people like Trump can be overthrown. Think about it.

Being a student of ancient history, Trump should remember that in olden times the people would routinely sacrifice their kings to appease the gods.

Can we stop saying a person is "cancelled" when they're only facing the consequences of their actions? Shame and guilt are not the answer, but neither is unwillingness to educate yourself and lack of accountability. "Cancel culture" is one of the least progressive concepts on the internet.

Contenta de poder mirar hacia esta parte del mundo que me apasiona y de la que tan poco se habla. ¿Cómo afectarán los aranceles de Trump a los países del Sudeste Asiático? Un pequeño análisis de la mano de Inés Arco, investigadora del @cidobbarcelona.bsky.social y servidora. En @elsaltodiario.com

Sometimes I indulge myself in anarcho-syndicalist dreams a little too much.

The Media don't have the solutions to any of your problems, because your biggest problem is the Media.

Weird how the same party that insisted undocumented immigrants don't pay any taxes is now using the records of undocumented immigrants paying their taxes to find them. Of course they think it's *great* they won't be adding to our tax revenues anymore. Damn freeloaders, giving us money for nothing.

I laugh, but I have learned that some men truly do believe "proving" their gender is more important than being a person who enjoys and lives life in its full complexity and stays true to what is authentic to them.

It's going to be so awkward when Trump and Netanyahu have to sit at the same table as Putin, Kissinger, and Hitler for Burger and Fries night in Hell. P.S. No ketchup, only tabasco.

As always, people are focusing too much on aftercare, calling it self-care. If you're taking a break from something that could've been avoided in the first place, you're doing aftercare. Self-care is not just time for yourself. It's integrity, it's respecting your own boundaries, education, etc.

"De-extinction" is distracting baloney served by molecular whiz kids who don't understand population biology or conservation.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

En su demanda, el rey Juan Carlos le pide 50.000 euros a Miguel Ángel Revilla. Qué torpe, pero si dinero ya tiene. Podría haberle pedido algo que no tuviera allí en Abu-Dabi, como anchoas, vergüenza o dignidad.

En España, los analistas consideran que Vox y, en general, los votantes de ultraderecha no serán críticos con el autoritarismo hasta que suba el precio de la prostitución por efecto de la crisis económica mundial. Puedes leer el artículo completo aquí: www.elmundotoday.com/2025/04/que-...

Pudiera parecer que el éxito del fútbol femenino es una moda reciente, pero hace cien años los partidos femeninos eran un éxito de público. Uno tan grande que hubo que prohibirlo para desinflarlo. Acompáñenme en esta triste historia de invisibilización...por una vez, no va de romanas (¿o quizás sí?)

Netanyahu says he and Trump discussed plans to give Palestinians a "free choice" to leave Gaza and go to other countries.
