There’s all kinds of stupid things I’ve learnt to live with and resigned to our cruel fate, but loud football fans in public transportation isn’t one of them. I hope they freeze in the cold 🥶

Not sure how a plastic hard hat can help you in the case of an explosion... But Avi loves making stuff up to make up little points of pseudo-propaganda.

I've just seen some folks on FB defending the anti-vaccine movement... And then last night, some other people comparing AOC and the white dress ladies to the KKK... Can we leave the Internet now? Where's the exit?

I guess there're not many translations into English of Guðbergur Bergsson, are there? I must also have some books of Laxness also lying around in some box unopened for a number of years in the mainland flat. Where could that be...?

‘Si a 3000 campesinos no los hubieran matado y vestido como guerrilleros ¿le reconocerían la bacanidad a los soldados que perdonaron la vida de esos comunistas?’

@e_pe_me_ri Yes, you're right, God is also commandeered to the cause in Brit royalist discourse. (It’s all borrowed from French, which has a real subjunctive: Dieu sauve etc)

And, well, the Onassis Foundation took over the Cavafy Archives (after they bought it in 2012) which is meant to be great, and probably it is, but why they destroyed the website with the entire Cavafy poetry in English and Greek... I know not. It happened like last week.

Also, the art world needs Marie Kondo. 'Keep your biennial under 30 artists', 'Keep your booth under 30 pieces', 'Don't look at artists that don't bring you joy'... It would be great to live with 30 catalogs you love, and discard all the rest, most of them really don't bring joy.
