Feeding the Shadow Milk Cookie simps again/silly

But can I request Shadow Milk Cookie headcanons smut one shot (or headcanons, I don’t mind) it can be that Shadow Milk Cookie took over the faerie kingdom and the reader is their partner and it’s just celebraty sex for taking over the kingdom (if this don’t make sense I’m sorry I’m not good at giving plot lol) but remember to take water breaks too :)

→ ❛King and Queen❜

→ Pairing ; Shadow Milk Cookie x Reader → Quote ; N/A → Genre ; Headcanons , Nsfw → A/N ; Here you go! I used a cointoss to determine if it'd be a oneshot or headcanons and headcanons won! Also I will drink water! haha, you take care of yourself too <3

Rejoice be the members of the old Faerie Kingdom, as its new King had arrived. With a swift defeat of the heroes of light, Shadow Milk cookie settled as the new king of the faerie kingdom, and with every big achievement, there had to be a celebration, dont you think? 

He’d guide you to the bedroom, where not only could you gaze at the new kingdom filled with joy and mischief, but also, enjoy a lovely night with your partner.

He’d take long rounds with you, just enough to celebrate this new win by your side, he’s not letting this chance go to lose.

He’ll start with foreplay, biting your neck and licking every wound, he’ll probably draw blood, but dont mind him, he just adores your taste

It’ll take a bit of time to get to the main event as he gets you undressed and he undresses himself, so cope with him, he’ll get to filling you up in no time.

Will talk dirty in your ear, call you names like slut, but prefers sweet names like puppet.

His breath would become hitched as you both approach the main event, his cock ready to ravish you whole as he comes inside you, he’ll groan and comment on how tight you are while biting your shoulder, and from then on there’s no turning back, he wont stop until you’re thoroughly filled in the night, even if it takes him till morning to achieve his objective.

I’ve already stated that this man is into creampies, so of course that for a celebratory sex he’d want to fill you even more than usual.

He’s not overly vocal, but will grunt and moan in your ear as he slowly comes undone.

If along the way you become overestimulated with him getting handsy and his cock pounding into you, good luck! He’s not stopping anytime soon!

Will clean you up once he’s done, helping you come back from the high and cuddling you as you both welcome your new kingdom with a lovely high.

My private voice teacher associated my voice with Flor recently and when we talk about Jazz he always refrences Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald bc we share similar vocal color. Sometimes I will stop and ask about a direction I've gone or a choice I've made and he always recognizes or accepts when I've made a choice and we'll discuss why if it doesn't work.

I struggled so much at the end of the semester, feeling like i moved backwards, and wondering if I was being stubborn when i got the urge to dig in my heels about choices I was making vocally. Comparisons were always made that made me feel not great. To celebraties, to other students. If I made a choice that was not suggested to me and it didn't work it was always treated like an accident.

I like detuned sounds, Locrian mode, major/minor chords. Sometimes I will make a conscious choice to do a minor scale slide in a major key bc I want to see if it works, sometimes I'm doing it to quote an adlib from the original. It labled me with my school teacher as a metal head? Which like I am not (i do listen to some but none of the kinds that use the scales i favor ironically).

It's just wild the difference. like i say my personal coach associates me with certain musicians bc its not a comparison when he does it. He'll say 'have you heard of X? I think you could sing something by her.' and explain how the way I use my voice would work well in that genre or the color and tone of my voice would compliment this artists music, or it has something I'm working on vocally (flor came up bc I'm working on my chest/mix/head transition). There's never a direct comparison.

there is pressure in comparison. A would say 'you can do this as well as X' and it feels like an expectation and i lost a lot of myself in trying to get there because I felt like I was overthinking or being stubborn about technical things bc I didn't have the formal training to know if he was pushing a prefrence or necessity (and no I did not need to open my mouth more).

Or feeling defensive bc I know why I get sharp and its not bc I'm emotional its because I am singing the absolute top of my falsetto and I'm not confident over a C5 so I hesitate and pull back and since I'm worried and I dont have the right air I go sharp. Don't double down on me being emotional and maybe help me address it.

I want people to know about the stones ... We're headed toward a world where we might blow ourselves up and maybe the globe will not exist ... it's a nice time to reaffirm ourselves, knowing all the beautiful things that are in this country and the Georgia Stones symbolize that.

 Parler

Parler is a U.S based news based, micro blogging social networking service app which was launched in August 2018 by its founder John Matze.

It is being ardently promoted by political conservatives in America who tout it as alternative to Twitter which they believe is strifling free speech.

Parler is multilingual just like it's arch rival Twitter, it has it's headquarters situated in Henderson, Nevada US.

Parler currently has about 5 million users world wide, and has been downloaded over 1 million times on the Google play store, it has been touted as the fasted growing microblogging site of 2020.

The promoters of Parler say parler is unique in the sense that it's a commenting platform that's not biased, promotes free speech and solidly focused on protecting users right.

They say that parler enables its users create their own community and enjoy contents and news in real time while applying moderation tools to filter contents, they say it empowers users to control their social media experience and be a verified member of the community.

Leon Rife, a parler user wrote this about parler on the internet;"Super easy to use, whipped right through registration page, so i can't understand how others seems to be having a problem with it. I've been using this app for about a month, as well as Twitter and really enjoy parler as the superior app for content and expression...great app and great platform.

Another parler user, Tom lane said the app is wonderful for open self expression, "if you're looking for a Twitter alternative, this is it..."

The oops about the app especially for Nigerian users is that unlike Twitter, Parler requires your valid means of identification for you to be verified, unverified users may have their experience limited as people who don't like what you posted or commented can label you as a robot which may earn you some unpalatable repercussions.

Can parler displace or even stand neck to neck with Twitter? Only time shall tell

Triller

Triller is owned by the owner of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg, it was founded on December 5th,2015, but was retooled, reactivated, reinvigorated and updated on August 5th 2020, in what analysts see as an attempt to rival tiktok.

Triller is a video creation application where an Android phone owner who downloads the app can produce own music videos using the songs that are available in the music library. Triller is a video creation app which also works as a social media platform in various ways.

Thanks to the current situation of tiktok in the face of US president Trump's threat of banning it, Triller is blazing the trails in the hope of catching up with tiktok and even overtaking it.

Triller says it is not seeking to rival tiktok, afterall it is older than tiktok, as it was founded in 2015 while tiktok was founded in 2017, instead it sees itself as the "adult version of tiktok", matured tiktok so to say.

It is available on Android's Google play store, it is 43.93 Mb app as against 58.98Mb making it a darling of users with low end smartphone.

Triller has 120 million downloads as against tiktok's 1 billion downloads, but it's known to have a growth than tiktok.

Trump campaign, snoop Doggy, Lil Wayne, Alicia Keys, Eminem and other celebrators have opened triller accounts as triller continuous to cash in on tiktok's China connection backlash.

Promoters of Triller say that Triller enables users to show off their unique talents.

If you know tiktok and you know Triller, if you see Tiktok you see Triller because Trillion is a copycat with advanced modifications. It remain whether American's Triller can beat China's Tiktok in China's home field of copycating.

[laurelismyblackcanary]

I just saw an Instagram post in which Patti Murin talked about having COVID in April while she was pregnant and how worried they were that it could have repercussions on the baby. Now I felt sorry for them, I empathized with their worry and I was ( I am ) happy and relieved that she’s okay and the baby is okay. So I went to comment on it, expressing my sympathy and relief and happiness that they were all okay, I usually don’t do it but Colin and Patti are amongst my favorite celebrities and they’re relationship is something I look up to, something I want for myself.

And you know what I found? Tons of comments saying that no one cares for hearing sob stories from celebraties, that she should have kept her mouth shut with her pathetic story ( I swear it’s a direct quote from a comment I read ) and that we ( we who? I so hate when people comment with “we” or “the people” cause guess what? You’re not the people. Not everyone wants what you want. Speak for yourself. ) want to hear the stories of common people that died of COVID. We don’t care about celebrities.

Now. Patti ( like Alyssa Milano a few weeks back, or Daniel Dea Kim at the beginning of this emergency ) was sharing her experience to try and make people see why it’s necessary to wear a mask. With her profile she can reach way more people than any one of us. They celebrities and guess what celebrities are people. And they’re sharing their experience with COVID to reach more people and make them see why it’s necessary to wear a mask. I don’t understand why people are reacting this way. Celebrities are a reality of this world and they have a voice that can reach more people. So why are people being so mean?

Also if you don’t care about her or her story why are you following her and watching her video? Like you don’t care for celebrities? Fine just move on.

JOANNA DE BRAGANZA / / CHALLENGE 004 

eleven tests completed & eleven explainations wrote out. 

SOUL TYPE TEST | the sage

A Sage soul is one whose role in life is collective expression, communicating big ideas with as many as possible. Natural extraverts, playful expression is fundamental to the Sage’s nature, though they are more adept at entertaining an audience than in coming up with original ideas. They are born attention-seekers, very much at home in front of an audience, taking centre stage. The bigger the audience the better, but any audience will do. The natural goal of any Sage is to express the highs and lows of life for all to see, sharing lifes lessons in an appealing way to create shared understanding. All soul types can manifest positively or negatively in any given moment, as the individual chooses. When manifesting negatively, Sages lapse into ORATION, i.e. hogging the spotlight, loving the sound of their own voice. The positive manifestation is COMMUNICATION, being on the same wavelength as the audience. Famous Sages include Mae West, Oscar Wilde, Bill Clinton, Jim Carrey

NOTE: reading through the soul type was very on-par with joanna’s very person, i would class her as a YOUNG SAGE who chases fame as nowdays celebraties do. she hogs the spotlight, the loves the sound of her own voice - what else could she be? 

MBTI TEST : entp-a ( the debater )

The Debater personality type is the ultimate devil’s advocate, thriving on the process of shredding arguments and beliefs and letting the ribbons drift in the wind for all to see. Debaters don’t do this because they are trying to achieve some deeper purpose or strategic goal, but for the simple reason that it’s fun. No one loves the process of mental sparring more than Debaters, as it gives them a chance to exercise their effortlessly quick wit, broad accumulated knowledge base, and capacity for connecting disparate ideas to prove their points.

NOTE: i was surprised, i thought her mbti would come out as something a little more dramatic rather than chasing knowledge or logic in it’s most intense form. i’m not too agreeing with the result, but maybe i can use this information to strengthen her person - and i like the ‘devil’s advocate’ side to it. 

CREEPIEST THING ABOUT YOU TEST: your possessiveness is really uncomfortable

It’s obvious to everyone around you that you feel the need to keep everything just the way you like it, and that insistence often borders on obsession. Your persistence, materialism, and sentimentality can prevent you from ever letting things go, and the more you care about them, the more stubbornly you defend your right to own them forever. Sorry to say, but there are some things, like memories and loved ones, you simply can’t own, and trying to stake your claim over them just makes you seem unbalanced and creepy. It probably wouldn’t hurt to quit being such a hoarder, too - none of your guests enjoy trying to find a seat in a room piled high with reminders of everything you refuse to let die.

NOTE: this is quite onbrand but wouldn’t be the creepiest thing to me when it comes to joanna - though she is posessive i don’t agree that it’s overwhelmingly disgusting.. i’d say it’s her rudest, or need to be right all the time.

TEMPERAMENTS TEST: sanguine 23/24 choleric 18/24 melancholic 05/24 phlegmatic 05/24

Your temperament is sanguine. The sanguine temperament is fundamentally spontaneous and pleasure-seeking; sanguine people are sociable and charismatic. They tend to enjoy social gatherings, making new friends and tend to be boisterous. They are usually quite creative and often daydream. However, some alone time is crucial for those of this temperament. Sanguine can also mean sensitive, compassionate and thoughtful. Sanguine personalities generally struggle with following tasks all the way through, are chronically late, and tend to be forgetful and sometimes a little sarcastic. Often, when they pursue a new hobby, they lose interest as soon as it ceases to be engaging or fun. They are very much people persons. They are talkative and not shy. Sanguines generally have an almost shameless nature, certain that what they are doing is right. They have no lack of confidence.

NOTE: this is a much easier answer for me to digest, though joanna isn’t evil she certaily has a rudness that can come across as evil to some people - or perhaps she truly is just a bully. and the last quote, ‘they havae no last of confidence’ is right on the target! though of course, as a young girl there may be bouts of insecurity.. which may evolve into humility or down-right foolery. 

LAWFUL ALIGNMENT TEST: chaotic neutral

A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it.

NOTE: in terms of alignment i think this is the safest option to describe joanna, she is no hero but she is no villain either.. she looks out for herself more than anthing else, though most choices come at random and at various paces.

GREEK DIETY TEST: poseidon

He was god of the Sea and other waters; of earthquakes; and of horses. In pre-Olympian Bronze Age Greece, he was venerated as a chief deity at Pylos and Thebes. Poseidon was protector of seafarers, and of many Hellenic cities and colonies. He is noble and powerful, and is recognized as a figure of leadership.

NOTE: like what happened when i took the same quiz for marius, i lost my first results. my first was aphrodite, which i didn’t necessarily agree with - then came poseidon. i’m happier with this result because poseidon was such a crass and awful man who made hell a lot worse than hades ever could’ve - he killed many whilst at sea, and in my opinion, was one of the most powerful gods of greek mythology. 

ENNEAGRAM TEST: type 7 / 7w8 ( the enthusiast )

People of this personality type are essentially concerned that their lives be an exciting adventure. Sevens are future oriented, restless people who are generally convinced that something better is just around the corner. They are quick thinkers who have a great deal of energy and who make lots of plans. They tend to be extroverted, multi-talented, creative and open minded. They are enthusiasts who enjoy the pleasures of the senses and who don't believe in any form of self-denial.

NOTE: she is certainly a pleasure seeker and planner for distraction and i think this is the closest i’d get to describing joanna though i wouldn’t call her creative due to the fact that she has little skill to anything!

SEXUALITY TEST: 40% heterosexual 30% bisexual 20% asexual 10% homosexual

this needs no description though i will write that of course she hasn’t had sex with anyone yet due to her position? it would be wrong for her to do that as a princess and thus has not experimented with anyone either than taking a few kisses from princes and noblemen. also, she has yet to be awoken to the sense that being attracted to girls is normal, so this quiz is entirely random to the point that it’s made for modern day human beings, not ones from 1455. 

POKEMON TEST: flying type

The Flying type is all about the self. You possess traits that are often sought-after: Confidence, self-respect, and bravery radiate from your being. You are a very self-aware individual, and that knowledge can be employed to great use both alone and socially. Remember, however, to not get too big of a head, Flying-type: Your confidence is good, but empathy is better. Often, you may find yourself at the whimsy of society. You are honorable, but also constantly worried about your self-image remaining pristine. If you allow yourself to become too wrapped up in what others think of you, you may become too flighty and scattered for your own good. Remember to relax, and let your spirit soar!

NOTE: though i find it hard to relate joanna to a pokemon the description is pretty good and i can fit joanna into it - though i’d rather see her as a spoilt and messy jigglypuff. 

TEA TYPE: hibiscus tea

You’re a *lot*. But that’s not a bad thing! You’re unafraid to take up space and make your voice heard. You love being the center of attention and are willing to cause a scene to swivel the spotlight toward you. You’ve got a sharp tongue (you’ve probably been called sassy at least once in your life) and you can use that for good or evil. Your tartness might not be for everyone, but those who get you love your larger-than-life presence.

NOTE: once again it’s pretty lose to joanna’s character and i particaly like the line ‘your tartness might not be for everyone’ 

BIG FIVE PERSONALITY: 

of course i wasn’t going to pay for this quiz so i only have a little information to share: OPENNESS 52% CONSIENTIOUSNESS 10% EXTRAVERSION 100% AGREEABLENESS 21% NEUROTICISM 33%

NOTE: extraversion is a funny one, and i really like the look of this type of quiz but alas i’m poor and i’m not gonna spend money on a made up character! 

and as i did with marius i ended up making a birth chat for her, who was born 29th may, 1438 at 17:39am.

5 IP’s That Could Potentially Benefit From A LEGO Set

LEGOs have become popular across the mainstream as well as amongst hardcore builders looking to extend their collections and even casual builders who have sets of their favorite movie, TV series or any IP of his or her interest. 

As far as I go, I have The Big Bang Theory set along with 4 architecture sets (Chicago, Vegas, Paris and San Francisco) with a sixth set on the way in the mail (Stranger Things). I obviously would like to get more into LEGO building but it is an expensive hobby obviously. 

As I see LEGO sets either being released or retired, there’s a few IPs I had in mind that could make good LEGO sets but don’t have one or already have one but could benefit from another. 

Starcourt Mall (Stranger Things) 

Season 3 of Stranger Things saw most of the season take place at the newly built Starcourt Mall which was the main hangout for the main characters and the occupation for Steve as he worked at the ice cream shop called Ahoy. 

With The Upside Down soon retiring and season 4 on its way, Starcourt Mall could be a good potential money maker not only for LEGO but Netflix as well and also a creative build for LEGO enthusiasts as it would obviously surpass the piece amount of The Upside Down as Starcourt Mall could act like how the McAllister house does from Home Alone where it’s able to be opened and you’re able to not only build the outside of the mall but the inside too. As far as minifigures go, LEGO could take the same models from The Upside Down set and create them in their season 3 attires and also include new character Robin too. 

1428 Elm Street (A Nightmare On Elm Street) 

While LEGO is more of a family friendly company, the Stranger Things set has proven they’ll take a step into the depths and cross that family friendly line. 

Seeing as how the Elm Street films popularized horror and put many famous actors on the map like Robert Englund and Johnny Depp, having a set of the dilapidated “House that Freddy built” as a set would be an ambitious step away from the family friendly reputation LEGO is known for. The house would be known for its’ Nightmare 3 or 4 look as it would be dilapidated and run down with a Springwood Realty sign that looks faded in the front yard. The mini figures that could go with the set could be as follows: Freddy, Nancy, Glen, Tina, Rod and even Lt. Thompson. 

Nakatomi Plaza (Die Hard) 

While Christmas is still a month away, the debate to whether or not Die Hard is a quote “Christmas movie” goes on every year and it’s been a staple for me for a few years (with the exception of this year) on every Christmas Eve. The 30+ story high rise is the main setting of the film as New York City cop John McClane takes on a team of armed terrorists hell bent on robbing the building’s vault of $640 million while holding partygoers hostage on the 30th floor and rigging the building to blow. The building itself could be a potential monstrosity to build as it could be anywhere from 2,000 to 4,000 pieces depending on if designers intend it to be opened to recreate famous scenes like the roof jump as the roof explodes or the fight between John and Karl. There would be a litany of minifigures potentially included like John, Holly, Hans, Karl, Tony, Theo, Al Powell, Argyle (and his limo), Special Agent Johnson and even the smug and egotistical Ellis. There’s lots of potential if LEGO were to secure the rights to use the film to build the infamous Nakatomi Plaza and while it’d be a pricey set, it’d be one fans of the film and the franchise would want to both collect and construct. 

CIA/NOC List Vault (Mission Impossible) 

While an unlikely candidate for a set, this was actually used in the LEGO Dimensions game as part of the Mission Impossible expansion pack. The scene where Ethan rappels down into the vault to retrieve the list could be faithfully recreated to the finest detail including the black floor when the vault door is open and activated via a battery like switch similar in The Upside Down set. With the film celebrating it’s 25th anniversary, it would be cool if LEGO worked on an idea to recreate the scene along with the firetruck that provided the cover and escape for Ethan’s team. Some minifigures that would be possible could be Ethan, Krieger, Luther, Claire and CIA analyst William Donloe. The set could also include a small toilet stall with a bucket for when Donloe has to repeatedly throw up in the bathroom. The vault itself could include the outside digit access panel and the security area involving the retinal scanner before entering the vault to faithfully recreate that portion of the film. 

Sunnydale High School Library (Buffy The Vampire Slayer) 

Last but not least is one of the most iconic TV shows of the late 90s and early 2000s...Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Throughout the series, the Scooby Gang had a lot of iconic hangout spots like The Bronze and the Summers house but none more iconic stands out than the high school’s library. The pilot episode took Buffy here as she met the librarian Giles who foretells her of her destiny to be a vampire slayer. Throughout the series she meets a quirky collection of friends and battles the big baddies along the way to destroying the first evil and saving the world. Some minifigures included would be Buffy (I’d like the season 1 finale outfit), Giles, Willow, Xander, Cordelia, Oz, Angel and Spike. 

While this is just my opinion of what I’d like, I’d also like to hear from you...the audience. Heck, send ideas to LEGO themselves as suggestions too.

"C'È STATA UNA TELEFONATA, AI MIEI OCCHI DECISIVA, TRA IL PRESIDENTE DRAGHI E IL PRESIDENTE MACRON" - IL MINISTRO MARTA CARTABIA SPIEGA COME SI E' ARRIVATI ALL'ESTRADIZIONE DEI TERRORISTI ITALIANI NASCOSTI IN FRANCIA: "NEL COLLOQUIO CON DUPOND-MORETTI HO RIBADITO CON FERMEZZA L'IMPORTANZA DEL FATTORE TEMPO, AVENDO BEN PRESENTE IL CALENDARIO DELLE IMMINENTI PRESCRIZIONI - QUALUNQUE PROCESSO DI RICONCILIAZIONE SOCIALE NON PUÒ NON PARTIRE DAL RICONOSCIMENTO DI CIÒ CHE È ACCADUTO E DA UN'ASSUNZIONE CHIARA DI RESPONSABILITÀ"

-

Marco Galluzzo per il "Corriere della Sera"

Ministra Cartabia, dopo decenni le autorità francesi accolgono le nostre richieste e arrestano i terroristi italiani che si sono rifatti una vita in Francia. Lei come titolare della giustizia ha gestito questa ultima fase. Cosa è cambiato rispetto al passato?

«Questa vicenda si protrae da oltre quattro decenni. Dietro questa svolta c' è un lavoro che ha coinvolto negli anni vari soggetti a più livelli. Sin dal mio primo colloquio col ministro della Giustizia francese ho percepito una chiara sensibilità alla portata storica e politica del problema, un'umana partecipazione al dolore delle vittime e una netta determinazione ad impegnarsi per porvi rimedio.

Non so se le origini italiane del ministro Dupond-Moretti, di cui va molto fiero, possano aver giocato un ruolo. Decisivo è stato anche il fatto che, mai come ora, tutte le nostre istituzioni si sono mosse in modo compatto e tempestivo. Una modalità d' azione, a cui ispirarsi sempre».

L'Eliseo ha confermato la dottrina Mitterrand, ma ha concesso quello che prima negava. Perché?

«Nel colloquio con Dupond-Moretti ho ribadito con fermezza l'importanza del fattore tempo, avendo ben presente il calendario delle imminenti prescrizioni. La prossima sarebbe stata il 10 maggio. E ho voluto anche fare chiarezza una volta per tutte sul duplice equivoco, che per anni ha ostacolato la concessione delle estradizioni: anzitutto stiamo parlando di persone condannate in via definitiva per reati di sangue e non processate per le loro idee politiche; in secondo luogo le condanne sono state pronunciate all' esito di processi celebrati nel pieno rispetto delle garanzie difensive del nostro ordinamento. Come in questi anni più volte è stato ricordato, con le parole di Sandro Pertini, "l' Italia ha sconfitto gli anni di piombo nelle aule di giustizia e non negli stadi"».

L'amicizia fra Draghi e Macron ha avuto un ruolo?

«So per certo che c' è stata una telefonata, ai miei occhi decisiva, tra il presidente Draghi e il presidente Macron».

Quanto ci vorrà per l' effettiva estradizione in Italia?

«Difficile fare previsioni precise, anche perché si tratta di fascicoli complessi. Di certo, io direi non dobbiamo aspettarci un rientro a breve, nei prossimi giorni. Gli arresti di ieri servivano a scongiurare il pericolo di fuga. Ora i giudici valuteranno se convalidarli e se applicare misure cautelari. Poi inizieranno i procedimenti, per valutare caso per caso la sussistenza dei presupposti per la concessione dell' estradizione. E poi ancora, come sempre avviene in queste procedure, l' ultima parola è dell' autorità politica».

Cosa garantisce che queste persone arrivino in Italia?

Negli anni 80 a diversi arresti in Francia non è seguita poi l' estradizione.

«Come accennato poco fa, la procedura è ancora molto lunga e articolata e soggetta a specifiche valutazioni che terranno conto dei singoli casi. Per questo, gli esiti sono ora tutti nelle mani dell' autorità giudiziaria francese. Certamente, il clima in cui questa svolta è avvenuta mi pare molto diverso rispetto ad allora».

Che giustizia è quella attuata con tanto ritardo sui fatti contestati?

«Nessun ordinamento giuridico può permettersi che una pagina così lacerante della storia nazionale resti nell' ambiguità, e resti irrisolta. La storia offre numerosi esempi di giudizi celebrati e di vicende giudiziarie portati a compimento a molti anni di distanza. La nostra volontà di riproporre la richiesta delle estradizioni non risponde nel modo più assoluto ad una sete di vendetta, che mi è estranea, ma ad un imperioso bisogno di chiarezza, fondamento di ogni reale possibilità di rieducazione, riconciliazione e riparazione, fini ultimi e imprescindibili della pena».

Si può ancora parlare di rieducazione della pena a distanza di 40 anni?

«Qualunque processo di rieducazione e anche di riconciliazione personale e sociale, specie dopo ferite particolarmente profonde, non può non partire dal riconoscimento di ciò che è accaduto e da un' assunzione chiara di responsabilità. Non a caso, in Sud Africa, dopo l' Apartheid, è stata costituita una commissione denominata "verità e riconciliazione". Questo è forse il primo rilevante esempio di giustizia riparativa, che tra l' altro ha ispirato un analogo percorso qui in Italia tra protagonisti della lotta armata e i familiari delle vittime».

La vicenda di Battisti e la confessione finale di diversi delitti, negati quando stava in Francia e in Brasile, può aver avuto un ruolo?

«Sicuramente questa vicenda ha contribuito a dare una visione più corrispondente alla realtà degli anni di piombo e quindi a creare anche in Francia un clima più favorevole all' accoglimento delle richieste italiane».

anarchy-and-love replied to your quote: Dopo il post su Scalfari di ieri il direttore...

Scalfari è da tempo che è spazzatura, ma ormai sarà un “intellettuale” finché campa

@anarchy-and-love è da sempre spazzatura, come non ricordare la corrispondenza con Italo Calvino: http://temi.repubblica.it/micromega-online/eugenio-scalfari-e-il-vivaio-giovanile-fascista/

Emerge tutta la pochezza intellettuale di Scalfari e il confronto con lo scrittore risulta impietoso. E del resto non sorprende.

Si potrebbe aprire un capitolo a parte anche sulla discutibile fama di Montanelli o della buonanima Fallaci, tanto fallace. Certi decani così celebrati sembra che siano indenni da qualsiasi critica. Divulgatori di panzane e nulla più.
