Today there's a political demonstration near the university. When I search for wifi, one new option appears:
"DIGOS (Italy'secret police) wiretapping van"

Today I stumbled on a new example of "cursed covers of philosophical books"

Spengler "The decline of the West" as a saga about cowboys.

I've watched the last movie by Guadagnino, in which Julia Roberts plays a philosophy professor at Yale.

My main takeaway is that I was glad to learn that even at Yale students are recruited as attendees at academic events in exchange for credits.

Since I've seen this book was published, I've wanted to read it. Finally I got a copy via mail, thanks to HOPOS journal, for which I will write a review.

After three years, the dream of having professor Beiser in Naples for the final Conference of the project on "The neo-Kantian reception of Schiller", inspired by his work, has finally come true.

The Conference for the project I've been working on for the last few years is happening soon.
You can access it on streaming: t.co/GjFS3safuQ
Full program: acesse.one/OZJAw
(I can't wait for it to happen, so I can stop having nightmares about something going wrong)

You know you're in Naples when in the morning you stumble on the delivery of firewood for the pizza ovens.

When you reach the peak of the mountain after a difficult hike and you can finally enjoy the beautiful view from the top.

Unexpected encounter in an Austrian grocery store.

When I go to a concert I always try to get the setlist as a souvenir. I've had some strange ones over the years (the Dum Dum Girls one written on the back of a communist protest flyer), but King Hannah's setlist written on a paper plate takes the prize.

I cannot handle that the Italian ministry for university and research looks like a character from Mars Attack 😭

Musk must have put his fat finger on the scale of Grok AI and now he is a great thinker on par with Aristotle.

Paying my tribute to the birthplace of Friedrich Engels, favorite figure for the philosophers of all time: the wealthy patron.

Little stop in Köln before heading to Wuppertal for the Conference on Hans Vaihinger.
I had to go up the 533 steps of the cathedral tower to make up for the plate of Himmel und Ääd I ate at lunch.

Unexpected existentialist Kant.

Going in a new Mike Flanagan's show I knew I was up for emotional moments, but I wasn't ready for this quote to hit this hard in the first few minutes of the first episode:

"To truly love another person is to accept that the work of loving them is worth the pain of losing them."

In my parents' house, I stumbled on the paper I had to write when I was a visiting student in Munich.
So, my first writing assignment ever* was in German.

(*in Italy we have oral examinations)
