Cabaret & the Seductive Power of Evil

How the movie came to be and a solid historic context of the times it depicts in Germany.

En @lavanguardia.com un anuncio de APARTUR, disfrazado de noticia, informan que el número de pisos turísticos es practicamente constante desde 2014.

Los datos de CEAT y el Observatorio del Turismo en Barcelona, Ayuntamiento de Barcelona son muy diferentes.

I’m usually impervious to the toxic noise spilling out of the US, but this line in The Guardian cut close:

“Partly it is the allegory of milk, the pursed mouth of a graphic designer on a coffee cup as a surrogate for the Madonna del Latte.”

Latte-swilling ‘performative males’: why milky drinks are shorthand for liberal
Americans are fretting over a type of man who drinks matcha and expresses alternative masculinity – but the ‘latte liberal’ stereotype has existed for decades

Just discovered an app with high-res scans of every Emigre issue, thanks to Letterform Archive. As a student, I loved them—the first fonts we ever bought. Pretty sure the floppies are still sitting in Mexican customs. Thank you, Rudy and Zuzana.

Like so many others, I moved from London to Portugal’s capital for the sun, lifestyle – and the tax break. But as tensions rise with struggling locals, many of us are beginning to wonder whether we’re...

Sanctions against Francesca Albanese. The US has always imposed its imperial power, but it once did so under the guise of civility, human rights, and justice. Not anymore.

Extremists often ignore this passage:

³³ "When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. ³⁴ The foreigner living among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt."

Kojo Koram’s piece on Hong Kong really hits a nerve. It’s hard to watch slick authoritarian systems rise while our democracies stall. It feels like we’re not just slipping—we’re losing the openness of the future.

And they are right. Given that Catholic means universal—kata "in respect of” and holos “whole”—it should not be a surprise.
I’ve even heard a rumour that he’s so not „America first” that he decided to run a completely different country on another continent

Heard @mrjamesob.bsky.social from Barcelona today and got curious—asked Perplexity which zodiac sign is most criminal. No science behind it, but apparently Cancer, Pisces, Sagittarius, and Scorpio pop up more often among serial killers. Weird, but same logic to list criminals by nationality.

Hey Marty,

Your book Zag is incredibly valuable and has helped me refine my branding approach. That said, the print quality doesn’t match the premium feel it deserves. An updated edition could make it even stronger!
