Propast medija koje uništava internet S35E1489
Članak o "prvom domaćim drive-inu za domaću klopu" ili već tako nešto je super, osim što mu nedostaju prilično elementarne informacije - gdje je taj fakin drive-in i (barem) koje mu je radno vrijeme. Clickbait FTW!

The phrase that kept coming up over the last several days was “make fetch happen.” It’s a reference to the film Mean Girls, when one of the characters tries to make the word “fetch” trendy, using it t...

365 dana "male povijesti", dan po dan. Run, don't walk do Fraktura weba ili još bolje knjižare kod Džamije po svoj primjerak "Kaj je bilo".
U našem slučaju doma - čitamo po jednu priču na onaj dan kad se dogodila i kad je opisana u knjizi.
Čisti gušt. fraktura.hr/proizvod/kaj...

Kaj je bilo, Tihomir Ponoš - Fraktura

U knjizi Kaj je bilo Tihomir Ponoš vodi nas kroz kalendar “male” povijesti, otkrivajući događaje koji su oblikovali svakodnevicu – od otkrića penicilina do izuma plišanog medvjedića i ženskog nogometa...

Evo slažu se tribine za još jednu besmislenu demonstraciju taštine, imbecilizma, debilizma i militarizma.
Dobro je da se ima para za ovakve gluposti - to je očiti znak da su sve važne društvene potrebe poput obrazovanja, zdravstva ili npr. mentalnog zdravlja djece i mladih ok.
Radujmo se!

"The closure of legacy media in the Western Balkans signifies the end of a decades-long fight against authoritarian repression in Europe. And this small region is now a real-time experiment in what the future will look like — unless the democratic community acts."

OPINION: More than the end of a respected regional broadcaster, the closure of Al Jazeera in the Balkans signals the onset of a dangerous phase for global democracy.

As legacy media outlets close, we’re entering the post-journalism era

You'd think this was a cruel joke by The Onion or MAD magazine. But no - the image was posted to X by the official White House account.
You can't make this shit up.

Odličan intervju na Telegram podcastu s prof. Tomislavom Pletencem o tome kako je "fenomen Thompson" zapravo projekt, poziv na "ljubav" zapravo poziv na mržnju i kako umjesto "zajedništva" zapravo duboko dijeli društvo www.telegram.hr/podcastovi/p...
