My aunt got in the USA with a O1 visa, and sincerely thinks that immigrating to the USA is easy, and does not understand why I don't do that.

I am a native Spanish Speaker, and listening to his ad I realized that Mamdani's accent is better than mine, which is nice: seems like a guy who learns fast.

Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.

I remember how my Spanish-speaking work colleagues in Tampa, in the year of our Lord 2014, knew who Righeira were, but not Jean Reno.

Which one did you show them first? I remember being immensely disappointed by the movie, after having read the manga.

Oh, how I love reading deeply reasoned analysis of the electoral system for the Venetian Doge, which conveniently omit that IT FAILED AT ITS STATED PURPOSE. Not with time, not with degradation of customs, but on day one.

I am aware that North American infrastructure is solidly XX century, I am sorry about that

Having officers that check tickets is actually a good thing that reduces anti social behaviour, makes users feel safer, and increases ridership.

Making public transit free is so much not an obviously good governance from the toolbox of leftist solutions that not even socialdemocratic or communist countries have done it, only hypercapitalist tax haven Luxembourg (and Malta, i am learning)

That was pretty clear of some older McConnel declarations. Five years ago I compared him to Daniel Francois Malan, but i don't remember specifically why.

New awareness campaign
A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

The Finns love to pretend that they have always been progressive socialist, and it is funny to ask them about the civil war and its protagonists

It is actually a very nice piece of industrial design.
