¿Has visto esto? ¿Nos echas una mano para llegar a 2000? Nos queda tan poco...
Y te puedes hacer socia por 70€ al año, que puede costarte solo 14€ después de las deducciones. Menos que 1,20€ al mes.

If NASA failed at this rate there would be protests to cut the budget.....
Failure in science and engineering is inevitable, but the private tech approach of "move fast and break things" (not to quote the berg) has very questionable ethics given the resources required for space faring.

Dozens of studies in recent years have linked ultra-processed fare to health problems such as high blood pressure and heart attacks, and also to some problems that one might not expect: cancer, anxiety, dementia, and early death.
Why Is the American Diet So Deadly?
A scientist tried to discredit the theory that ultra-processed foods are killing us. Instead, he overturned his own understanding of obesity.

Canada and Mexico Are Helping to Fight California Fires, Contrary to Meme - FactCheck.org
Canada and Mexico have sent firefighting crews to help battle the blazes in the Los Angeles area, and Ukraine also has offered assistance. But social media posts misleadingly claim "$00,000,000" in "foreign aid" has been offered to the U.S. to help with the Southern California disaster.

El franquismo fue una dictadura corrupta, con abrumadora desigualdad social, que vulneró gravemente los derechos humanos. Tras la muerte de Franco, se decía que era pronto para hablar de él; ahora dicen que es demasiado tarde. 50 años después es hora de recordar democráticamente.

A gentle reminder that you should always resist the temptation to tag a creative person into a negative review of their work. It doesn't matter what your intentions are, it's kind of an asshole maneuver. You are free to say whatever you like, of course. Making it their problem, however, is not kind.

Instead of "I apologize for the delay," write "thank you for your patience." In lieu of "sorry for the oversight," write
"if you're so perfect, why don't you fu*king do it, Marsha."
