i remember this happening to me in maastricht and i got so devastated... why is hot chocolate outside of spain like that :(

[translation of the tweet:

>I want a hot chocolate

>I ask the waitress if the chocolate they have is chocolate a la taza or colacao (idk how to translate this)

>She doesn't understand. I show her a diagram explaining what's chocolate a la taza and what is colacao

>She laughs and says 'it's a good chocolate'

>I ask for one

>It's colacao]

For reference, here is chocolate a la taza (what we understand hot chocolate is) vs colacao / nesquik (what they understand hot chocolate is in other countries, here is a very common breakfast)

Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal

Per il Capodanno di Cagliari avevano proposto un concerto della Rappresentante di Lista in piazza Yenne (target: IO) + altre piazze con Tazenda (per il target "mia mamma") e rapper sardi (per il target giovani nenni/gaggi/grezzi)

E invece hanno deciso di essere fedeli al target più importante, gli uomini che "la musica era meglio quando ero giovane io [quarant'anni fa]", e scongelare il batterista dei Police. Neanche una reunion con tutti i Police, o un concerto di Sting che è comunque un nome famoso e avrei capito, no solo il batterista.

the first law of tragedies: the end is already written and inevitable. the second law of tragedies: your actions are all your own and you can choose to get off this ride whenever you want. the third law of tragedies: we both know that you are never going to do that.

What's that bro? You began interacting with a media from a different country than yours and/or was made in time period different than the recent present day? Haha that's sick bro! Keep expanding your horizons bro! You're remembering to take into account that sociocultural norms, gender roles and genre expectations are different from what you are used to and meeting the story halfway, instead of forcibly superimposing your ideals into the story, right bro? Right? Right?

One of the most important things to unpack and unlearn when you’re part of a white supremacy saturated society (i.e. the global north) and especially if you were raised in an intensified form of it (evangelicism, right wing politics, explicit racism) is the urge to punish and take revenge.

It manifests in our lives all the time and it is inherently destructive. It makes relationships and interactions adversarial for no good reason. It undermines cooperation and good civic order. It worsens some types of crime. It creates trauma, especially in children.

Imagine approaching unexpected or unacceptable behavior from a perspective of "how can this be stopped, and prevented" instead of "you’re going to regret this!”

Imagine dealing with a problem or conflict from the perspective of “how can this be solved in a way that is just and restorative” instead of “the people who caused this are going to pay.”

How much would that change you? How much would that have changed for you?
