I'm not under the illusion this speech changes things overnight, but as someone born in 1996 and who really grew up in a post-9/11 world, it feels like something I haven't seen in American politics in my lifetime. This is the bravest man in politics right now www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnui...

Salutare l'ultimo giorno di ora legale /3

Tramonto sul mare dalle Terrazze di Calamosca, un po' più tardi.

Annegare il dispiacere per il cambio dell'ora nel gin tonic.

Sole tramontato sull'ultimo giorno di ora legale, luna nuova.

Ho cercato e in effetti sono di provenienze diverse: lo strutto è ottenuto dal grasso sottocutaneo della zona dorsale, mentre la sugna dal grasso viscerale della zona surrenale, ed è molto più delicato e quasi senza impurità.
Fanno male tutti e due essendo grassi saturi.

So what would stop Trump from waking up in the middle of the night, saying "fuck it," and ordering that the rest of the White House be torn down and replaced with a tall golden tower in the shape of a T?

Op diverse plekken in Nederland zijn megabatterijen in aanbouw. Die kunnen pieken in stroomvraag en -aanbod opvangen en zo de verstopping van het elektriciteitsnet helpen oplossen. Mits ze goed worden ingezet. De randvoorwaarden daarvoor zijn er nu.

🧵 Ieri ho sottotitolato in inglese il video dell'intervento di Carlo Calenda a Piazzapulita. E mi sono accorto di una cosa: in Occidente c'è un'enorme sete di contrasto alla propaganda russa.

Enorme.

Una riflessione. Spero che qualche politico legga il thread.

Italian Senator left Jeffrey Sachs literally speechless and shocked by calling him a liar and a propagandist.

It happened on Prime Time Italian television.

Priceless 🤩

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts...

It wasn't fake. It was edited. But Reagan really did spend a five-minute speech – an April 25, 1987, national radio address that the Reagan Library has published on YouTube – to rail against tariffs. It was a full-throated expression of support for free and fair trade.
