homeleaving


I do not know if the word homeleaving really exists, but I like to use it as the continuation of the title of yesterday's post.

This morning (let’s say so) I went out to run at noon! There was a cold wind, but the sun was warm. I ran for 6 km, I enjoyed a lot of pleasant temperature.

I went out with a peaceful mind because I had finished and sent the project for a cosmetic box.

After lunch (of course I did not really want to work) I watched the latest episodes of the TV series Mosaic, with Sharon Stone (but I fell in love with Jennifer Ferrin). In the series Sharon Stone is a rich bitch that is murdered almost immediately.

I noticed that in movies and telefilms the Italian word stronza (feminine) is translated with bitch, instead of the masculine (stronzo) is rendered with asshole...

Short memory and long memory

I have a controversial relationship with the detractors of the State of Israel. I read a lot of criticisms of so-called anti-Zionists. I agree with almost every criticism of the Israeli government, but I can not stand it when this alleged anti-Zionism simply becomes anti-Semitism. I can not stand the anti-Semitism of the Arabs, but also of the Palestinians. You can have all the reasons in the world, but I will never prove the slightest sympathy if at the base of your reasoning, at the base of your claims there is racism, pure and simple, even if masked. I mean: I understand perfectly the Arab and Palestinian hostility in particular, but I do not feel empathy. My reasoning is simple: if I had been a Jew (a brave and determined Jew) at the end of the Second World War I would have done anything to be able to create a Jewish state. If I had been brave and determined I would have trafficked weapons and false documents and brought as many Jewish survivors to Palestine. So I feel admiratio

Shit afternoon

We got up and it was raining outside, not really, but enough not to make us want to go out for a run. We lazed a little (but I would have had the opportunity to work), then we went out to see the fair: there was the usual merchandise and we only bought a printed scarf with a painting by Van Gogh and another with a print of Picasso's painting. We had lunch early because we had to accompany our daughter to the station. It usually takes an hour, so we decided to go out an hour ahead of schedule, to be sure. Everything went smoothly up to Ponte Milvio... the police and the local police prevented the transit of all the cars on the lungotevere, towards the center. The traffic has become very dense and we have continued in the obligatory direction at a crawl. We were early and we did not worry too much. After several minutes we had come a very short way, we were bottled in traffic a long way from the station and the subway stops. And I had to pee. After another time we had come a very

To born males

Image
To be born a male in a patriarchal and sexist system is a bit like being a male child of a mafia boss: to benefit from criminal activity you do not need to commit it in the first person. I hope you understand the meaning of Michela Murgia's tweet (even if my translation sucks). She is a combative and talented Italian writer. This tweet did discuss. it has been criticized by men and women (really funny). I do not know why it was misunderstood or not understood: it is obvious that being born males is a privilege on many occasions. On the contrary, the birth of a woman represents a handicap on as many occasions. Of course there are many differences from country to country, well 'in some countries born woman is not a handicap, it is a tragedy. Many men would prefer not to enjoy this privilege, but - in fact - as Michela Murgia says, they benefit from the advantages of being male even when these advantages are not sought. Men who do not oppose machismo are accomplices of his perp
