On this day in 1914, Charlie Chaplin debuted his most famous screen character—the Little Tramp. In the 11min film Kid Auto Races at Venice, audiences witnessed the Little Tramp's trademark style, which consisted of a small derby hat, comically large shoes & a badly fitted suit.

Francia está defendiendo a España:

"Built on evidence ~10k creators working across illustration, writing, music, photography and performance, it shows creative jobs are disappearing. Commissions are being cancelled.

"ciudad real" es un nombre sospechosísimo

“Rodríguez may be trying to recreate the path of economic development followed by China, which in the 80s opened up to foreign investment, without sacrificing the ruling party’s monopoly on power. Some are calling her Delcyping, a reference to Deng Xiaoping, architect of China market liberalization”

Engaging in mental gymnastics to justify what's convenient but unevidenced, unjust but personally beneficial, 'rewires your neural map' in ways that degrade your overall ability to understand and analyze the world around you, which is a precondition for intelligence and creativity.

US Senate to vote on bid to stop Trump from taking further military action in Venezuela

“¡Libres!” #SPSP

this is how every outlet should refer to X

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

El equipo de argumentario de la derechas españolas intentando recomponer su discurso tras los giros de guión después de la comparecencia de Donald Trump en la que confirmaba que todo es por petróleo, que María Corina se puede quedar en su casa y que apoyará a Delcy Rodríguez como presidenta.

Question: Hey so about boots on the ground: do you envision US Military having a presence in Venezuela Trump: if they're needed to protect the oil, yes I'm furious but also it really is refreshing that he's like "yep it's about the oil"

Siempre puede ser peor.

Da fuq? En serio, por dios, gringos, hagan algo por contener a su loco.

En Sky News dicen que la salida de Maduro ha sido negociada, se acuerdo a fuentes en “high places”. Además señalan que las defensas antiaéreas del país no se usaron durante la invasión, lo que apoyaría esa teoría.

No words.

Me resulta *casi* increíble estar en esta situación en pleno 2026. Esperando a ver qué dicen los Nóbeles de la Paz, candidato y ganadora.
