No los quiero desilusionar, chicos, pero el FMI también felicitó a Menem, a De la Rúa y a Macri. Siempre felicita por el ajuste y advierte por “las consecuencias”. Pero el público se renueva.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

“Will pay any amount.”

Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.

has there been a piece about Giselle Pelicot by a man, reflecting on what he's learned about masculinity, about himself and about other men from this horrific case?

I feel I've seen so much by women, but it wasn't women who bloody did it. It's not women who need to reflect on how it could happen.

No shit murder is bad. The jokes about the United CEO aren’t really about him; they’re about the rapacious healthcare system he personified and which Americans feel deep pain and humiliation about

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots.

To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.

Me siento totalmente identificada…
En vez de subir fotos de los libros que leo, como nunca puedo leer ninguno, voy a empezar a subir fotos de los libros que tengo y no puedo leer. Tal vez agrego un comentario sobre lo que me podrían haber parecido y cómo me debería haber sentido al leerlos.

Hablar de VIH/sida para muchos sigue siendo un tabú.

Quizás no lo sabías: Asimov murió en 1992 pero recién 10 años después se supo que murió por complicaciones relacionadas con el sida. Había contraído el #VIH en 1983 en una transfusión de sangre, cuando se le practicó una cirugía coronaria.

Revenge is a good plot line for a movie not a national policy stance.
