Il Guardian é britannico. Night night

No it actually doesn’t help perché come esempio sarebbe rilevante se l’ITALIA fosse stata colonizzata dalla Cina, che posso garantirti non è mai successo. Non c’è bisogno di tirare fuori strawmen per vincere un argument su Sanremo. Per “l’aggiornati”, lol - maybe check the bio first next time

cultural appropriation sottintende una disparità di potere ed è una conseguenza di politiche coloniali quindi il tuo esempio è irrilevante, hope it helps x

gli hair stylist devono fare due chiacchiere con i rapper sul concetto di cultural appropriation #sanremo

AI slop a Sanremo. Ma gonfiamola ancora un po’ sta bolla consumando il fabbisogno annuale di acqua di una piccola città, yay le papere e i papaveri

Quando studiavo scienze internazionali all’uni avevo considerato la carriera diplomatica, riposto quei sogni nel cassetto quando mi scontrai con la realtà lol

All madness aside, quello che mi sconvolge di sta storia è che in UK chiunque sembra poter diventare ambasciatore..? Niente master all’ISPI? Nessun esame da preparare in un anno intero? Nessuna carriera iniziata come sottosegretario di legazione a timbuktu? Basta avere amici influenti? Wow

'this is gonna be perfect for my needs,' I say, as I add another work bag to my cart that will, in fact, NOT be perfect for my needs

Recupero ora la cerimonia di apertura e sono orripilata che la Rai abbia scelto di non mostrare la faccia di Ghali nemmeno per un secondo. Il suo nome non fatto. Una damnatio memoriae che è una vergogna tutta italiana. Però le moine per Charlize Theron si. Che schifo

Yay politica del pendolo is so back!

Im gearing up to go back to work after nine months of maternity leave and reading more news, plugging in with the discourse.. and oh boy 2025 was a good time not to have time to do all that

No esatto, è 50% retorica e 50% cercare di battere il ranking SEO di google per quelli che non leggono il NYT e sperano di trovare la risposta alla domanda su internet

Il mio prof di giornalismo ripeteva sempre che titolo che pone una domanda, ha sempre come unica risposta “no”

It’s old-fashioned to defend mainstream journalism these days but some of the most reliable reporting from people actually on the ground will be the AP and Reuters the next 24 hours. Your Substack journalist writing takes will be using frontline reporting from them.

OPINION: When Roman Oleksiv described seeing his dead mother under the rubble of a hospital hit by Russian missiles, Ievgeniia Razumkova, the interpreter translating his words, broke down in tears.

It was not inefficiency, but care made visible.

Picture of baby, face is turned the other side, with a Santa’s hat and a Christmas pudding outfit under the tree, presents

Santa’s little helper is clocking on for her night shift - happy Christmas to all, I’ve always loved this holiday but this year is extra special 🎄👶🏽 buon natale ❣️

Grateful my parents landed on Thursday with two big slices of parmigiano that will last me a lifetime 🥲

Please think of this anytime you feel the need to share “[something something] in the style of Studio Ghibli!!!” The master himself despises you

and like every year, here I am longing for carnevale – with its masks and costumes and coriandoli and tasty chiacchiere – while in uk we get.. pancake day

love this but guys the word you’re looking for is ‘canadese’ 🥹🇨🇦

Also, there’s absolutely nothing wrong in not knowing something and having to Google it! The world is granular and we’re all have different interests - one of the remaining good things about the internet is the easy access to knowledge it provides us..
