Valentine's Day

Decided to do this as a Valentine's Day special, hope you like it

An interesting fact that I discovered is that people who are called Valentina/Valentino/Valentim this day is like an Onomastic birthday (Birthday of someone who is named after the Saint of that day) So happy birthday Valentina/Valentino/Valentim!!!

Summary: How they react to receiving gifts from their s/o on Valentine's Day

Confused

They stand there with their eyebrows widened as they stare at the gift in their hands.

It is not a surprise for them to receive gifts at this time or even hundreds of their admirers

Sometimes it was a hassle to have so many chocolates or gifts

But receiving one of your own? It was something they hadn't imagined, but they liked the idea.

Suddenly he caresses your head and sends you a genuine smile

"Thank you" They say with that sparkle in their eyes that only you and one of the few to witness

They wouldn't mind getting a Valentine's Day gift if it was yours

Tom Knowles, Rayne Ames, Lance Crown, Wirth Mádl, Ryoh Grantz, Carpaccio Luo-Yang, Shuen Getsuku, Lance Crown

Stunned

They just stand there with wide eyes when they see you handing them a gift on Valentine's Day

Surprised and little they are stunned

They never got a Valentine's gift from anyone...unless someone stole them

But receiving a gift from you? They're a blushing mess

Without them realizing it, their face is redder than tomatoes, peppers or any other fruit/vegetable that is red.

"Everything is fine?!?" You say worried about them

"Y-yes!!! Everything is great" They manage to say trying to hide the excitement of getting something for Valentine's Day especially from their s/o

Your cuteness will someday be the death of them

Dot Barrett, Abyss Razor, Cello Morceau, Tron Morceau, Milo Genius, Cell War

Joyful

As soon as they realize that you are witnessing it on Valentine's Day, their surroundings light up

It doesn't matter if they've had a bad day or their expression is dull or they just don't show it, the air around them lights up and even seems to have flowers.

"Really for me!" They say doubtful

"Yes! Besides, today is the day to give a gift to your loved one" You say as you bring the gift to them

Suddenly they reach into your pocket and take out a gift and give it to you

"I thought the same thing" They say laughing a little at the coincidence

You can't help but laugh at the coincidence as they exchange gifts

It seems like you read each other's minds

Finn Ames, Lemon Irvine, Love Cute, Renatus Revol, Kaldo Gehenna, Lovie Rosequartz, Delisaster, Malcolm Curtis, Galuf Gargaron, Margarette Macaron, Max Land, Adam Jobs

Without expression

They just stand there while staring at their present, yet it was so silent you could hear a pin drop.

They don't say anything it seems like they didn't like it at all

"If you don't like-" You try to say but suddenly they go through something in your pocket and take out a gift

"...Looks like we had the same idea" They say trying to hide the amusement in their tone as they hand it to you

"Ah! And indeed heh~" You laugh as they exchange gifts

Fate likes to play tricks on you both

[hows-itgoagain]

there’s something to be said about his character here. you can just see it before i even have to explain.

although, if you want my explanation, it’ll be under the cut.

would a main character, who boasts that he hates side characters, that is adamant that he’s the protag, ask why a side character died for “a guy like him”?

would such an arrogant main character cry over a side character like this? such a loud, self centered, cocky main character? i didn’t think so.

no one’s ever really liked dot. he was bullied as a kid, heavily. he had no friends, his only protection being malta.

so, in order to survive, what else can he do but put on a front? a character for the world to see that makes him confident. a main character.

and he does that. but this main character persona of his is just too egotistical. too loud. too annoying. too delusional. too stupid. and because of this, still, no one really likes him.

but this time they can’t tell it bothers him. this time he doesn’t show the bad stuff. this time he’s stronger. he’s more confident. he’s the main character after all, isn’t he?

… but he’s not.

under it all is still the same kid that malta had to protect every time other kids bullied him. under it is still a softer guy who cares. who wants to be cared for.

and that’s when mash steps in.

mash, the ever caring, who makes a friend of dot. who makes the friend group. who helps everyone grow, who everyone helps him grow.

and when dot, who has been alone all his life, finally has a group to call his own, that persona begins to falter.

he’s less arrogant now. it’s a pretty quick seeming switch-up, but it can be assumed that more happens behind the scenes.

over time he becomes that softer guy he actually is. he doesn’t have to put up this huge annoying persona anymore. this is, of course, not to say he’s entirely a soft guy. because he’s not.

he’s still loud. he’s still annoying. he’s still kinda arrogant. he’s still all of these things. but he’s also more genuine. more caring. more of a real person than what he put on. because that mix of contrasting traits is exactly who dot barrett is.

so when lance takes that hit for him, and he’s under the impression lance just died for HIM to live, he’s shaken.

not only is one friend he’s grown to cherish (through banter) dying right in front of his eyes, but he’s dying for dot’s sake.

lance, who seems to hate dot. lance, who is the most annoyed by him out of everyone. lance, who has stronger magic than dot, lance, who’s here to save anna.

lance just took a fatal hit for dot.

a main character would, for lack of a better way to put this, sadly accept this and move on with the rest of the story.

but dot isn’t that.

dot isn’t the cocky guy he pretends he is.

so when lance collapsed into dots arms and is later dying on the floor, dot has no more honest a question to ask than,

“why’d you die for a guy like me?”

because he’s nothing special, and he knows that.

except, he is. and lance knows that. and so do the others. because dot is just as special and important as everyone else.

he’s no awful bitchy main character.

he’s a kind soul who was hurt too many times. who was forced to act rude to continue on his path.

he’s not the main character of this story. but he is the main character of his story.

he’s also just a kid. a kid with a heart that was torn up. a kid who deserved better. a kid who didn’t deserve to have to pretend he was more confident than he was to not get hurt any more.

but where he is now, he’s allowed to be himself. he’s allowed to just be.

that’s all.

Eyes on the world #194

Maggio si avvicina al termine, non senza sussulti. 

Questa settimana novità un po’ dappertutto, da Israele all’Iran, dal Regno Unito alla Germania, fino all’Italia e - perché no, ogni tanto – al calcio. Al solito, un po’ tutto, per tutti. 

Cominciamo subito 👇 

🇮🇱 ISRAELE-HAMAS: IL MANDATO DI ARRESTO PER NETANYAHU, IL RICONOSCIMENTO DELLA PALESTINA E... 

(1) Come da diversi mesi ormai, cominciamo con le ultime novità dalla guerra tra #Israele e #Hamas. Karim Khan, procuratore capo della Corte penale internazionale (ICC), ha richiesto un mandato di arresto per il primo ministro israeliano Benjamin #Netanyahu, il ministro della Difesa israeliano Yoav Gallant e tre leader di Hamas: Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh e Mohammed Deif. Khan sostiene che i cinque abbiano commesso crimini di guerra e contro l'umanità durante l'attacco di Hamas del 7 ottobre e la successiva invasione della Striscia di #Gaza da parte di Israele. Le accuse contro i leader di Hamas includono sterminio, omicidio, presa di ostaggi, stupro e violenza sessuale, mentre Netanyahu e Gallant sono accusati di aver provocato sterminio, usato la fame come metodo di guerra e preso di mira i civili. Il ministro degli Esteri israeliano ha definito la richiesta "scandalosa" e ha promesso che Israele combatterà contro di essa. Israele non riconosce la giurisdizione della ICC poiché non ha firmato lo Statuto di Roma del 1998; la decisione ora passa a un collegio di giudici della Corte, che potrebbe impiegare mesi per deliberare, anche se comunque la ICC non ha una forza di polizia propria e dipende dagli stati membri per l'arresto degli imputati. Infatti, se il mandato venisse emesso, Netanyahu e Gallant potrebbero essere arrestati in uno dei 124 paesi firmatari dello Statuto di Roma, sebbene in passato spesso gli stati abbiano ignorato tali mandati. 

Restando all’estero, i governi di Spagna, Irlanda e Norvegia hanno annunciato l’intenzione di riconoscere formalmente lo Stato di #Palestina, conferendogli un significativo valore simbolico e politico. Già a marzo, i leader di Spagna, Irlanda, Malta e Slovenia avevano sottolineato la necessità del riconoscimento per la pace nella regione. La Spagna aveva già approvato una risoluzione in tal senso nel 2014, ma i governi successivi avevano rimandato il riconoscimento in attesa di un consenso europeo. Il primo ministro norvegese Jonas Gahr Støre ha dichiarato che una soluzione duratura in Medio Oriente può essere ottenuta solo attraverso la creazione di due Stati. Il primo ministro spagnolo Pedro #Sánchez ha annunciato che il riconoscimento sarà formalizzato il 28 maggio, criticando le azioni di Israele a Gaza e affermando che il riconoscimento mira a favorire la pace. Anche il primo ministro irlandese Simon Harris ha confermato il riconoscimento per la stessa data, denunciando le condizioni umanitarie a Gaza. In risposta, il ministro degli Esteri israeliano Israel Katz ha richiamato gli ambasciatori da questi paesi, avvertendo che tali decisioni avranno gravi conseguenze. Attualmente, quasi due terzi degli stati membri delle Nazioni Unite riconoscono la Palestina, mentre nell'Unione Europea solo nove paesi lo fanno. Nel 2012, l'Assemblea generale delle Nazioni Unite aveva elevato lo status della Palestina a “stato osservatore non membro”. 

Sul campo cosa sta accadendo invece? Mercoledì, i primi #aiuti umanitari sono stati consegnati alla popolazione di Gaza tramite il molo temporaneo completato dagli Stati Uniti. Nonostante le difficoltà logistiche, gli aiuti, tra cui barrette nutrizionali, alimenti terapeutici per bambini malnutriti e kit igienici, erano stati inizialmente stoccati nei magazzini delle Nazioni Unite. Gli aiuti, partiti da #Cipro, sono stati trasportati a Gaza con un complesso sistema logistico gestito dall’esercito americano e dalle Nazioni Unite. Le operazioni del molo si erano fermate tra domenica e lunedì dopo che sabato alcuni camion erano stati assaltati dalla popolazione. Dopo una revisione logistica, le consegne sono riprese martedì. Finora, 41 camion hanno transitato dal molo, con l’obiettivo di raggiungere i 150 camion al giorno, un quarto del necessario stimato dalle organizzazioni umanitarie, anche se le ispezioni israeliane – mirate a impedire che gli aiuti supportino Hamas – stanno rallentando ulteriormente le consegne. Oltretutto, ieri la Corte internazionale di giustizia ha ordinato a Israele di fermare l'offensiva a #Rafah, dove la situazione è stata descritta come disastrosa. La decisione implica la sospensione immediata delle azioni militari che potrebbero portare alla distruzione fisica della popolazione palestinese. La Corte ha anche chiesto l'apertura del varco di Rafah per l'ingresso di aiuti umanitari e l'accesso a esperti di diritto internazionale, ma Israele probabilmente non rispetterà la decisione, dal momento che considera la sua offensiva come legittima difesa. La decisione è una misura provvisoria nell'ambito di una causa più ampia iniziata dal Sudafrica, che accusa Israele di genocidio. La situazione politica internazionale vede Israele sempre più isolato. 

🇮🇷 INCIDENTE MORTALE PER IL PRESIDENTE DELL’IRAN EBRAHIM RAISI. COSA CAMBIA ADESSO PER IL PAESE? 

2) Il presidente dell'#Iran, Ebrahim #Raisi, è morto domenica in un incidente in elicottero vicino a Jolfa, nella provincia dell’Azerbaigian Orientale. Con lui viaggiavano il ministro degli Esteri Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, il governatore della provincia Malek Rahmati e l’ayatollah Mohammad Ali Ale-Hashem. Raisi, presidente dal 2021 e figura ultraconservatrice vicina alla Guida suprema #AliKhamenei, era potenziale successore di quest'ultimo. L'incidente ha suscitato reazioni contrastanti: in molte città iraniane sono stati segnalati festeggiamenti, ma vi sono state anche preghiere pubbliche e la sua morte è stata seguita da condoglianze da parte di leader arabi e milizie sostenute dall'Iran. A nulla sono valse le ricerche portate avanti nonostante le condizioni meteo avverse. La costituzione iraniana prevede la successione temporanea del vicepresidente Mohammad Mokhber, confermato da Khamenei, mentre anche il ministro degli Esteri è stato sostituito temporaneamente. Il Consiglio dei guardiani dell’Iran ha poi annunciato che le elezioni presidenziali si terranno il 28 giugno, mentre sono stati proclamati cinque giorni di lutto nazionale. I candidati alle elezioni potranno presentarsi dal 30 maggio al 3 giugno, e la campagna elettorale inizierà il 12 giugno.   

🇩🇪 ESTREMA DESTRA SOTTO ATTACCO IN GERMANIA. PROCESSI E ALLEANZE FALLITE RALLENTANO LA SCALATA 

3) Voliamo in #Germania, dove molte notizie stanno ruotando intorno a seguaci e membri effettivi dell’estrema destra. Innanzitutto, è iniziato martedì a Francoforte il processo più significativo riguardante il tentativo di un gruppo di estremisti di organizzare un colpo di stato contro il governo tedesco. Gli imputati, arrestati nel dicembre 2022, sono accusati di cercare di istituire una monarchia in Germania. Il processo, uno dei più grandi con accuse di terrorismo nella storia della Germania democratica, coinvolge presunti leader del movimento Reichsbürger e personalità come il principe Heinrich XIII di Reuss e l'ex giudice ed ex deputata del partito di estrema destra Alternative für Deutschland (#AfD), Birgit Malsack-Winkemann. Il movimento Reichsbürger sostiene teorie del complotto, sostenendo che la Germania moderna non sia uno Stato sovrano, ma una società commerciale controllata da poteri internazionali. Gli investigatori affermano che i presunti golpisti pianificavano di prendere d'assalto il #Bundestag a Berlino e arrestare i deputati, mentre il principe Heinrich XIII avrebbe organizzato incontri del gruppo nella Germania orientale e cercato contatti con il governo russo; nello stesso tempo, Malsack-Winkemann avrebbe utilizzato il suo accesso parlamentare per esplorare l'area in vista di un possibile golpe. Il processo è considerato importante per rivelare le connessioni dell'estrema destra in Germania e le sue infiltrazioni nelle istituzioni statali e nella società, visto che l'arresto nel 2022 coinvolse anche ufficiali dell'esercito e della polizia. Non a caso, gli imputati avrebbero avuto accesso a un vasto arsenale di armi e risorse finanziarie considerevoli. 

Tutto ciò avviene con le elezioni #europee in arrivo, e anche qui le novità non si sono fatte attendere. Maximilian Krah, capolista alle elezioni europee per il partito di estrema destra tedesco Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), si è dimesso dal consiglio direttivo del partito e ha annunciato che smetterà di fare campagna elettorale. Le dimissioni seguono le polemiche per alcune sue dichiarazioni sul nazismo, in cui affermava che non tutti i membri delle SS dovrebbero essere considerati automaticamente criminali di guerra, sostenendo la necessità di valutazioni individuali. Queste affermazioni hanno causato una rottura tra AfD e il partito francese #RassemblementNational (RN), che ha dichiarato che non collaborerà con AfD nella prossima legislatura europea. Inoltre, Krah era già al centro di controversie per l'arresto di un suo assistente accusato di spionaggio per conto della Cina e per due indagini preliminari su presunti finanziamenti da parte di Cina stessa e Russia. Nonostante ciò, Krah rimane capolista e probabilmente verrà eletto al Parlamento Europeo, dato il sistema di liste bloccate in Germania. In seguito a tali fatti, il gruppo politico europeo Identità e Democrazia (ID) ha fatto un ulteriore passo e ha deciso di espellere il partito tedesco Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) dal Parlamento Europeo, nonostante le dimissioni di Krah. 

🇬🇧 REGNO UNITO: LUCI SUL PIÙ GRANDE SCANDALO DEL SERVIZIO SANITARIO NAZIONALE. E INTANTO SUNAK... 

4) Passiamo al #RegnoUnito, dove è in corso – probabilmente – il più grande scandalo della storia del Servizio Sanitario Nazionale. Dopo quasi sei anni di indagini, lunedì è stato pubblicato il rapporto finale dell'inchiesta britannica sul #sangue infetto, che ha rivelato lo scandalo delle trasfusioni e dei prodotti ematici contaminati negli anni '70 e '80 nel Regno Unito, considerato il più mortale nella storia del Servizio Sanitario Nazionale. Si stima che circa 3.000 persone siano morte a causa dell'infezione da #HIV ed epatite contratta attraverso queste trasfusioni. Il rapporto critica medici, funzionari pubblici e politici, aprendo la strada a richieste di compensazione che metteranno sotto pressione il governo britannico. Gli attivisti hanno svolto un ruolo chiave nell'istituzione dell'inchiesta nel 2017, tra cui Jason Evans, il cui padre è morto a causa dell'infezione da sangue contaminato. Lo scandalo coinvolgeva il trattamento dell'emofilia con il fattore VIII, importato dagli #StatiUniti dove una grande parte del plasma proveniva da donatori a rischio (in USA le donazioni avvengono dietro compenso), aumentando le possibilità di contaminazione. Nonostante le prime segnalazioni di pericolo negli anni '70 e '80, le autorità hanno continuato a distribuire il trattamento, ignorando le precauzioni e le lezioni del passato. Il governo britannico ha ora accettato di pagare compensazioni, con stime che indicano una spesa finale di circa 10 miliardi di sterline. 

Lo scandalo viene riportato alla superficie in un periodo poco tranquillo in generale per la Gran Bretagna, dal momento che il primo ministro del Regno Unito, Rishi #Sunak, ha annunciato in modo inaspettato che le prossime #elezioni politiche si terranno il 4 luglio, in anticipo rispetto alla data prevista. Sunak, leader del Partito Conservatore al governo da circa 14 anni, ha scelto di anticipare le elezioni, previste per gennaio 2025, probabilmente per capitalizzare i recenti sviluppi positivi dell'economia e aumentare il consenso per il suo partito, che ha affrontato una crisi prolungata. Il primo ministro ha reso noto la data delle elezioni dopo aver annunciato miglioramenti nell'economia, segnalando un cambiamento rispetto agli anni precedenti, segnati da crescente inflazione e costi di vita in aumento, che hanno generato malcontento. Secondo alcune ipotesi, Sunak ha anticipato le elezioni poiché non si prevedono ulteriori miglioramenti economici fino all'autunno, quando in precedenza si pensava che sarebbero state indette. 

È così iniziata la campagna elettorale, ma per Sunak la situazione si è dimostrata subito in salita. Ha dovuto ammettere infatti che alcune misure chiave del suo governo, come il trasferimento dei richiedenti asilo in #Ruanda e il divieto di vendita di sigarette alle nuove generazioni, non saranno attuate prima delle elezioni a causa della chiusura imminente del parlamento. Questa rinuncia ha aumentato le tensioni all'interno del partito Conservatore già sorpreso dalla decisione di Sunak di anticipare le elezioni a luglio. I sondaggi indicano un crescente vantaggio per i Laburisti, con il sostegno per i Conservatori in calo sotto il 20%. Inoltre, 72 dei deputati Conservatori attuali hanno annunciato di non ricandidarsi, un numero significativo che potrebbe influenzare l'esito delle elezioni. Anche dal punto di vista degli eventi, l'inizio di campagna di Sunak ha avuto alcuni problemi, con la rivelazione che due domande "casuali" provenivano da funzionari di partito. Inoltre, Sunak ha commesso una gaffe in un birrificio chiedendo dell'imminente campionato europeo di calcio, dimenticando che il Galles non si è qualificato. Si prevede che il Partito Laburista, guidato da Keir Starmer, vinca nettamente le prossime elezioni, con un vantaggio di circa 20 punti percentuali rispetto al Partito Conservatore, secondo i sondaggi finora condotti. 

🇪🇺 L’ITALIA NON PRENDE POSIZIONE A FAVORE DELLE POLITICHE DI UGUAGLIANZA PER LA COMUNITÀ LGBT+ 

5) Venerdì scorso è emerso che l’#Italia non ha aderito a una dichiarazione del Consiglio dell’Unione Europea volta a promuovere politiche di uguaglianza e rispetto dei diritti umani per la comunità #LGBT+. Questo ha suscitato critiche al governo di Giorgia #Meloni, soprattutto dall’opposizione. La dichiarazione, proposta dalla presidenza belga in occasione della Giornata mondiale contro l’omofobia, la transfobia e la bifobia, è un documento simbolico che ribadisce valori già presenti in trattati europei. L'Italia, insieme ad altri otto paesi, ha scelto di non firmarla, nell’ambito di una decisione vista come politica. Il ministero della Famiglia e delle Pari opportunità ha riferito che la dichiarazione è troppo «sbilanciata sull’identità di genere», simile al contenuto del disegno di legge #Zan, una proposta mai approvata dal parlamento che mirava a includere discriminazioni basate su sesso, genere, orientamento sessuale e disabilità nel Codice penale. La destra ha sempre criticato il ddl Zan, sostenendo che minacciasse la libertà di opinione. La dichiarazione del Consiglio UE invece richiede l’impegno a promuovere l’uguaglianza e combattere la discriminazione, proteggere i #diritti fondamentali delle persone LGBT+ e sostenere l’accettazione sociale. La segretaria del PD, Elly Schlein, ha criticato la decisione del governo, notando che l’anno scorso l’Italia aveva firmato una dichiarazione simile. Anche il Movimento 5 Stelle e Italia Viva hanno espresso critiche, sottolineando come la decisione possa danneggiare la credibilità internazionale dell’Italia. 

⚽ DOPO LA FAMIGLIA ZHANG, L’INTER PASSA AGLI AMERICANI DI OAKTREE. I POSSIBILI SCENARI FUTURI 

6) La proprietà della squadra di calcio dell'#Inter è passata dalla famiglia #Zhang alla società di gestione patrimoniale statunitense #Oaktree Capital Management. Oaktree aveva inizialmente prestato 275 milioni di euro agli Zhang per sostenere le perdite finanziarie dell'Inter nel maggio 2021. Il prestito è cresciuto a 395 milioni di euro con gli interessi al 12% quando è scaduto il 21 maggio e, poiché non è stato restituito, Oaktree è diventata proprietaria del 99,6% delle azioni dell'Inter. Oaktree ha dichiarato di voler garantire la prosperità a lungo termine della squadra, lavorando con l'attuale management per assicurare una crescita finanziaria stabile. Tuttavia, molti esperti ritengono che Oaktree cercherà un acquirente per l'Inter a breve termine per ottenere un profitto. Nel frattempo, sembra che manterrà la dirigenza sportiva attuale. Oaktree possiede anche l'80% del #Caen, una squadra della Ligue 2 francese, ed è diventata così la prima proprietà statunitense dell'Inter. Gli Zhang avevano acquistato l'Inter nel 2016 e durante la loro gestione la squadra ha ottenuto successi significativi, inclusi due Scudetti, due Coppe Italia e tre Supercoppe italiane. La squadra ha anche raggiunto la finale dell'Europa League nel 2020 e la finale di Champions League nel 2023. 

Andiamo adesso alle brevi 👇 

💣 Domenica scorsa, i giornali locali del Nord-Est del gruppo NEM hanno riportato una novità nelle indagini sugli attentati del "#Unabomber italiano", attivo tra il 1994 e il 2006 in Veneto e Friuli-Venezia Giulia. La procura di Trieste ha riaperto le #indagini nel gennaio 2023 e ha recentemente trovato tracce di DNA su alcuni vecchi reperti. Questi includono peli su una bomboletta di stelle filanti inesplosa e vari altri ordigni rinvenuti nel 2000 in diverse località. Gli investigatori stanno ora comparando queste tracce di DNA con i profili genetici di undici indagati e altre venti persone che hanno accettato di collaborare. Le indagini sono state riaperte dopo un esposto del giornalista Marco Maisano e due vittime, basato su nuovi elementi trovati nei reperti a #Trieste; successivamente, la procura ha chiesto e ottenuto dal giudice un incidente probatorio per cristallizzare le prove. La diffusione della notizia del DNA è stata criticata dagli avvocati difensori degli indagati. Maurizio Paniz, difensore di Elvo Zornitta, un ingegnere precedentemente indagato, ha espresso preoccupazione per la corretta conservazione dei reperti e il rispetto delle procedure legali, pur accogliendo con favore eventuali progressi nelle indagini. 

🇺🇦 Il mandato presidenziale di Volodymyr #Zelensky è scaduto ufficialmente lunedì, ma rimarrà in carica dato lo stato di guerra che impedisce le elezioni. Questa situazione lo rende politicamente vulnerabile, con una parte dell'opposizione che contesta la sua legittimità e, nello stesso tempo, la #Russia sta cercando di approfittare della situazione per dividere ulteriormente la società ucraina. La questione legale sulle elezioni durante lo stato di guerra è complessa: mentre una legge ordinaria vieta le elezioni, la Costituzione è ambigua. Tuttavia, organizzare elezioni in tempo di guerra è logisticamente difficile, con milioni di ucraini fuori dal paese e problemi di sicurezza. Il dibattito sull'opportunità di tenere elezioni è durato fino all'autunno, ma la maggioranza della popolazione si è espressa contraria. Con il declino del sostegno a Zelensky, l'opposizione sostiene che ora sia privo di un mandato legale e dovrebbe cedere la carica al presidente della Camera. Questa posizione potrebbe guadagnare terreno se il supporto a Zelensky dovesse diminuire ulteriormente. Questa situazione rischia infatti di indebolire Zelensky proprio mentre il governo deve prendere decisioni impopolari durante la guerra, come la mobilitazione militare ed economica. 

Alla prossima 👋

British firms report success at interzoo show , Pet Trade News & Events from Pet Business World UK

New Post has been published on https://is.gd/77HQH7

British firms report success at interzoo show , Pet Trade News & Events from Pet Business World UK

British firms returned to the Interzoo exhibition in Germany last month after a four-year hiatus and reported the event to be a great success.

  Trade association PetQuip organised a group of more than 50 UK companies exhibiting in the British Pavilion at the trade show in Nuremburg. The British firms were supported before and during the show by the team from PetQuip and the

British pet industry information stand attracted unprecedented interest from overseas buyers during the show.

  Carina Evans, of Podium Pet Supplies, summed up the mood of companies taking part in the British group, saying: “It was simply brilliant to be back in Europe and in front of our customers. We were really surprised and delighted to see things 100% back to normal.”

  Several UK companies exhibited at Interzoo for the first time and were pleasantly surprised by the levels of interest generated.

  Cheryl Parry, head of marketing at The Barking Bakery, said: “We had interest from Australia to Abu Dhabi and everywhere in between and met some fantastic distributors that we would be honoured to work with.”

  Dan MacKenzie, founder of All About Pet Health, reported heavy traffic to its stand at Interzoo.  He said: “We had interest from all over Europe including Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, France, Germany and many more countries. We had the most interest in our soft chew products.”

  Richard Marles from Park Life added: “We’ve got more leads than we can possibly follow up on, so the next few weeks will be all about carefully selecting long-term business partners to grow our business with. Most interest came from the Nordic region, Benelux, and Malta, where the natural ingredients and playful branding of our products was very well received.”

  Amanda Sizer Barrett, director general of PetQuip, said: “The British Pavilion looked fabulous and we were the largest national group at the show. We are looking forward to helping the exhibitors with their follow-ups from the event and to helping our pet product member companies to seize many more export opportunities in the months to come.”

2020

Week 42: October 12-October 18

12:The United States Senate scrambles to begin the hasty vetting process for Trump’s newest pick for the Supreme Court, Judge Amy Coney Barrett. It’s not smooth sailing. On the second day of senate hearings, Texas Senator John Cornyn asks Barrett to hold up her notepad - it’s completely blank. Republicans celebrate this as evidence that she’s a brilliant jurist with a mind like a steel trap - so smart she doesn’t need to partake in something so mundane and academic as taking notes. But for Democrats it demonstrates her inexperience. It betrays the insincere and unserious nature of the vetting process. The case for Barrett’s brilliance is further diminished when she’s unable to answer a softball question. When asked to name the five freedoms guaranteed by the first amendment she forgets the right to protest. Makes sense - it hasn’t been very popular under the President who appointed her, Mr. Law-and-Order Trump.

The fact that this woman now sits in Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat is absolutely fucking galling. Like, they really thought this cutesy photo-op ‘gee ma, no notes’ stunt would make her look like a brilliant jurist  - Susan Walsh/Pool

13: Across Indonesia, protesters take to the streets for the second week in a row. They object to a large omnibus bill that critics believe will hurt both workers and the environment. It will reduce severance pay and cut leave, allow longer working hours, and would allow employers to replace full-time positions with contact gigs and part-time work. They fear that the bill will allow for the destruction of primary rain forests. Indonesian forests are an important carbon-sink and help slow climate change. The government believe the bill is necessary to reinvigorate the country’s flagging economy and boost foreign investment. Police begin to arrest high-ranking members of an opposition group known as KAMI, accusing them of inciting riots and demonstrations. 

14: The Hunter Biden laptop sideshow begins. A New York tabloid alleges that the Democratic presidential nominee Joseph Biden and his son have traded influence for money and engaged in corruption in the Ukraine. Their proof? Emails on a laptop supposedly abandoned by Hunter Biden at a computer repair shop in Delaware. The story was given to the publisher by Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Guiliani after he shopped it around to more reputable publishers first. Most refused - even right-leaning outlets like FOX - because of the story’s complete lack of credibility. Within hours the Washington Post will report that Guiliani was repeatedly targeted by Russia intelligence operations, hoping to spread disinformation.

15: The government of Thailand bans gatherings of more than five people after yesterday’s continued pro-reform protests. Trump and Biden square off in competing town hall events after the week’s presidential debate is cancelled following the President’s COVID diagnosis. I can’t recap it any more succinctly than The Week who wrote: “The candidates' contrasting styles were on display, with Trump sparring with the moderator and Biden offering soothing policy proposals unlikely to endanger his polling lead.” Biden was asked about a controversial 1991 crime bill he authored that resulted in increased incarceration, especially for black men. He admitted that parts of the bill were a mistake. Listening to a politician admit to making mistakes felt soothing - that’s how low the bar is now set. On rivalling NBC, meanwhile, Trump is fighting with Savannah Guthrie who is surprisingly adept at countering his disinformation. He refuses to denounce QAnon and evades questions about his leaked tax returns, calling his $421m debt to unknown creditors ‘peanuts’. With the town halls airing simultaneously, it becomes a ratings battle and, within a few days, Biden is crowned the winner with nearly 4m more viewers than the incumbent President.

16: Every day, now, is accompanied by a flurry of COVID reports as countries caseloads climb. Czechia and Italy are now adding nearly 10k new cases each day, an all-time high for both countries. Malta implements a mask-mandate and Azerbaijan announces it will suspend public transportation and secondary schools in an effort to curb the spread the virus. The small Oceanic islands of Wallis and Fortuna, a french protectorate, record their first case of COVID-19. They were formerly the only COVID-free region under French administration.

17: Kiwis head to the polls for a national election, re-electing Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern in a landslide. Ardern’s Labour Party is the first to win a majority since the proportional system was introduced in the mid-90s. New Zealand’s government’s handling of the virus has been pretty much the envy of the world - a long and heavy lockdown early during the crisis, paired with stringent travel restrictions and mandatory quarantines, has resulted in the country having virtually no community spread. Ardern’s successful handling of the virus is one of the things that propelled the young Prime Minister to such a resounding victory at the polls. Azerbaijan captures another city in their dispute with the majority-Armenian Artsakh province - Armenians, allegedly, retaliate by firing missiles at the Azeri city of Ganja, killing 13 civilians. 

Under Jacinda Ardern’s leadership, New Zealand had seen only 25 death to COVID-19 by election day in mid-October. She handily won, securing a rare majority government - Hannah Peters/Getty Images

18: It’s another busy day so lets just rip through some headlines - wildfires in Colorado have forced thousands of residents to evacuate their homes near Boulder. A judge blocked the White House’s efforts to end foot stamp benefits for 700,000 unemployed people - food insecurity in the United States has ballooned under the Trump administration. Food banks are feeling the strain of new customers as the economy contracted during 2020, shedding millions of jobs. And at a Michigan rally in yesterday, Trump warned the crowd against the state’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer. “Be careful of her and her attorney general because you know they’re like in charge of the ballot stuff”, he said. In a refrain of Trump’s 2016 refrain about Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, the crowd roars “Lock her up” and Trump replies “Lock ‘em all up”. In an Interview, today, Whitmer told press “It’s incredibly disturbing that the president of the United States, 10 days after a plot to kidnap, put me on trial and execute me ... is at it again ... inciting this kind of domestic terrorism”. Trump’s daughter-in-law and campaign surrogate Lara Trump claims he was merely having some fun.

Abortion Ruling In Poland Leads To Nightly Protests

By Zoe Huber, University at Albany, SUNY Class of 2020

November 11, 2020

Nightly protests are occurring in Poland after the Constitutional Tribunal, the country’s court, made the already strict abortion laws even stricter. Following Communist rule with laxer abortion laws, in 1993 the legislature illegalized abortion except in cases of rape, incest, if the mother’s life is at risk, or if there are fetal abnormalities. This law has not been changed until now, with the exception for fetal abnormalities gone.[1] This makes a huge difference in the number of abortions, since most abortions in the country are for this reason. In 2019, 97% of abortions were for cases with a high likelihood of incurable disease or severe fetal impairment.[2]

Even before the ruling, it was hard to get an abortion in Poland. Every year, about 150,000 people leave Poland to get abortions in nearby countries, like Slovakia, where Polish-speaking nurses work in abortion clinics. Doctors in Poland can be hesitant to perform abortions that are legal, because of religious reasons or for fear of breaking the law. By restricting access to abortion, this ruling will worsen the issue, according to deputy-marshal of the Parliament, MałgorzataKidawaBłońska.[2]

In the recent ruling, the court rules that abortion for fetal abnormalities are a type of “eugenic” The court said that allowing “eugenic practices” in this field, and determining whether a child has the right to life based on their health is illegal discrimination, and “violate[s] the constitutional guarantees for human life.”[2]

Because of the ruling, Poland is now the hardest place to get an abortion in the European Union, not including very small states, like Malta, or states where abortion is illegal. The ruling goes against public opinion.[2] Although Poles think abortion should only be allowed in rare circumstances, a recent poll showed that 59% thought it should be allowed “when the fetus is permanently and irreversibly damaged.”[1]

This isn’t the first time the ruling party in Poland, the Law and Justice party, has tried to tighten abortion restrictions. The party has pushed for it since taking power in 2015, and discussed banning abortion entirely in 2016, but mass protests in Warsaw and other cities caused them to drop the issue. Now, they have been able to restrict it through the courts through controversial means of getting conservative judges appointed. Ever since the party took power, they have “purge[d] the top court and restock[ed] its bench with conservative judges, using mechanisms that the opposition says are norm-breaking and extra-constitutional.” The party defends itself by saying that this allows the government to be more responsive to voters, since the Law and Justice Party keeps getting elected majorities in Parliament. However, according the executive branch of the European Union, the European Commission, “there is a systemic threat to the rule of law in Poland” because of the party’s actions.[2]

This controversy is strikingly similar to the current controversy about the United States Supreme Court involving the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett, which some feel was inappropriate. This has led to Democratic propositions to pack to court or introduce term limits, equally controversial proposals.

Hoy cumple años Roger Waters 77 años es un cofundador de Pink Floyd, convirtiéndose tras la marcha de Syd Barrett en el compositor conceptual de la banda. Además de ser el bajista, compartió el lugar de cantante principal y experimentó con sintetizadores, loops, guitarra eléctrica y acústica. Con él, Pink Floyd alcanzó éxito mundial en la década de 1970 gracias a sus álbumes conceptuales The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals y The Wall. Dejó la banda en 1985 debido a diferencias creativas y legales con los otros integrantes. Resuelta la disputa en 1987, pasaron casi 18 años para que volviese a tocar con la banda. Hacia 2010, el grupo habría vendido más de 250 millones de discos; solo en Estados Unidos, 74 millones de álbumes. En 1970, compuso en colaboración con Ron Geesin, Music from The Body, banda sonora del filme documental The Body, de Roy Battersby, sobre la biología humana. Grabó en estudio cuatro discos en solitario: The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking (1984), Radio K.A.O.S. (1987), Amused to Death (1992) y Is This the Life We Really Want? (2017). En 1986, contribuyó a la banda sonora de la película Cuando el viento sopla. En 1990, organizó uno de los conciertos con más asistencia de la historia, The Wall - Live in Berlin, con 300 000 espectadores. En 1996, fue admitido en el Salón de la Fama del Rock de Estados Unidos y del Reino Unido como miembro de Pink Floyd. Desde 1999 ha hecho varias giras. Desde 1989 trabajó en la ópera Ça Ira, estrenada en 2005, pero que un año antes tuvo su prémiere en las celebraciones por el ingreso de Malta en la Unión Europea. El 2 de julio de 2005, se reunió con sus excompañeros de Pink Floyd para el concierto benéfico Live 8, la única aparición de Waters con la banda desde su última actuación hacía 24 años. En 2010 dio comienzo The Wall Live, una gira mundial donde interpreta The Wall al completo. Durante la misma, el 12 de mayo de 2011, en The O2 Arena, Gilmour y Mason volvieron a compartir el escenario con Waters, Gilmour tocando «Comfortably Numb» y Gilmour y Mason junto a Waters en «Outside the Wall». #Collage #ProgramaCollage #musica #HistoriadelaMúsica #music #magazine #revistacollage (en Montevideo, Uruguay) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEzVV_qgcmC/?igshid=1mh2jk0tpggzm
