Saw the Superman movie yesterday and I loved it. I used to be a big fan of superhero movies, but they had been so disappointing lately. I'm so glad this one was this good! It was so satisfying to watch! It made me think there's hope for the genre still!

"Witnessing large-scale systems slowly unravel in real time can be profoundly surreal and frightening. The hypernormalization framework offers a way to understand what we’re feeling and why."
Systems are crumbling – but daily life continues. The dissonance is real
If everything feels broken but strangely normal, the Soviet-era concept of hypernormalization can help

L'Italia è nella poco invidiabile lista dei cinque paesi che stanno causando una "recessione democratica" nell'Unione Europea.

Lo dice l'ultimo rapporto della ong Civil Liberties Union for Europe, che qui verrà attaccato come un qualcosa di "fazioso" oppure nemmeno menzionato.
Italy one of five ‘dismantlers’ causing ‘democratic recession’ in Europe, report says
Civil liberties report warns that Italy along with Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania and Slovakia intentionally undermining rule of law ‘in nearly all aspects’

I had a feeling Trump and Vance weren't going to negotiate in good faith but being so openly hostile towards Zelenskyy was insane. Are the USA doing Russia's bidding now?

Tried searching for Gulf of Mexico on Google maps from Italy and the name is still there but Gulf of America is in brackets right afterwards. At least they seem to realise that from an international point of view the name change is ridiculous
