In no particular order (except for the last one, which is by far the crappest), the worst books I read this year were:

Important public health campaigns in the cat world. "Don't be a splat cat!"

Confío en una segunda parte en el que se nos hable de más películas históricas como "Merlín el Encantador", "Mary Poppins" o "Predator" para que @rtvenoticias.rtve.es siga con su labor informativa.

En el TeleDiario de @rtvenoticias.rtve.es están hablando de "los errores del cine histórico" como "Pocahontas" o "El jorobado de Notre Dame". Voy a asumir que LAS GÁRAGOLAS CANTARINAS Y LOS ÁRBOLES ANTROPOMÓRFICOS puede que se encuentren entre ellos.

My free macrame book arrived and I was unprepared for its power and glory

Imagínate anunciar una editorial nueva de terror -sí, otra- con 10 títulos preparados... y que sean todos de señores, poco relevantes, que en el mejor de los casos tuvieron algún título un poco conocido en la década de los '10s... que no son los que les van a publicar. Madremía, el desastre.

This deserves more attention to how damaging it is: * In some states 40%+ of all hospitals are Catholic church-run * Applies to urgent cares, specialists and doctors too. Church-run networks are buying/taking over more * Plenty of insurance only covers care at church-run systems in a given area

Similar to the "medieval peasants were happy and had lots of time off thanks to the church" trope, mythologizing past oppressions not only erases very real horrors but also ignores the agency (revolts, strikes resistance) of those facing these regimes. There's a reason reactionaries use these lies

Thread. It's worth remembering that enslaved people under Roman rule revolted often enough that some of those revolts turned into all-out wars...and there were enough of those wars that the Romans started numbering them.

Parece ser que tenemos un asesino de niñas pequeñas merodeando por nuestros alumbrados navideños, y le acaban de poner la denuncia pertinente.

#OtD 6 Dec 1994 Italian actor, Gian Maria Volonté, died. Most famous for his role in A Fistful of Dollars, he also starred in many politically radical films and was arrested while supporting striking workers (pictured). More about his life and films: stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1265...

your tired, your poor

The ease with which games industry execs just demand people move across the world for their projects is kind of irritating. Invest in local talent. Embrace remote work. Offer revenue share. The "oh but what an opportunity!" ego trips imposed on professionals for stuff to just implode ought to end.

Seguimos esperando a que quienes se empeñan en habitar la fantasía de que son una editorial independiente y de izquierdas nos respondan cuando traducen libros traducidos del inglés pese a estar escritos en otros idiomas.

Look guys, if the gays can boycott the Eurovision, the very very very least you can do is boycott FIFA

have been thinking about this for like two hours and I think what stands out the most is that Trump feels genuinely honored. he has no conception whatsoever that it is complete horseshit invented to flatter him. he loves it!

Cunado se anunció el Premio Montgomery Burns de la Paz dije lo mismo que ahora. Que es una pena que TRUMP! sea un racista que no ha superado que a Obama le dieran el Nobel de la Paz. Porque si no hubiera superado a Churchill y su Nobel de Literatura ahora tendríamos el Premio FIFA de Literatura.

Grok is still doing this, at least for me. It is using people search websites. The address it has for me is over a decade out of date, fortunately. You should quit Twitter but the real way to protect yourself from this is to use services like DeleteMe or manually remove yourself from databases.

Hollywood Caravan to Spain, parked on Hollywood Boulevard. 18 Sept 1937. After touring the US to raise funds to “help the defenders of Spanish democracy” as it says on the side, then it was sent to Spain. Many of those involved with the ambulance were later investigated under McCarthyism

Esto podría -o debería- de haber sido una columna en El Receptor o un posteo en ADLO! pero supongo que es más fácil, rápido y sencillo ponerlo por aquí porque, total, tampoco hay tanto: Cronología de la (más reciente) venta de Warner. [De otras ya lo hicimos. blog.adlo.es/2022/11/warn... ]

Remember, saying mean things about David Zaslav online... may actually get back to him and he HATES people saying that they think he's a worm and a fool, tried to edit those bits out of a story. Carry on!

The new US National Security Strategy makes for scary reading. I wrote about how the US wants to support forces in Europe to tear itself apart back in November 2024, and last May. This NSS confirms that's exactly the US objective for Europe. www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/u...

¿Hacemos porra? Yo digo que Grupo Planeta va a comprar los derechos de Eurovisión para Antena 3. Pero estoy dispuesto a escuchar si alguien tiene otras ideas de esbirros del mal -Mediaset, TeleMadrid, Movistar+- que creáis que van a dejarse el dinero en que Israel les financie mediante televoto.

This is either really good news (Paramount is out on WBD) or really bad news (previewing government intimidation into taking a bad deal to appease the president).

🚨Paramount Skydance in letter to David Zaslav: “It has become increasingly clear, through media reporting and otherwise, that WBD appears to have abandoned the semblance and reality of a fair transaction process.”

it finally happened -- a good student of mine vanished from class about six weeks ago. this student reappeared today and explained that they had been in ICE detention in another state during that time. ICE needs to end. ICE needs to end. ICE needs to end.

Si pides una reducción o adaptación de jornada para cuidado de hijos menores o familiares que lo necesiten, ten en cuenta que la empresa debe darte respuesta en 15 días (y son naturales, no hábiles). Si en ese plazo no lo hacen, jurídicamente se presume como concedido. Así lo prevé el art. 34.8 ET.✊

"Amazon tech helped deport my neighbours." On Cyber Monday in New York, Amazon warehouse workers with Amazon Labor Union and tech workers with No Tech For Apartheid protested Amazon's complicity in Israel's genocide and ICE's deportations. #MakeAmazonPay

It really isn’t said enough how much these people straight up hate America. People should say this a lot more frequently. They simply don’t like the good parts of modern American life.
