I was taken aback. “But you know what it is?”
“Oh, God, yes,” she said, and laughed. “And you would never guess it. Let’s just leave it at that.” I asked if she could tell me why she couldn’t tell me. “Because they don’t want anyone to know that it’s glitter.”
“If I looked at it, I wouldn’t know it was glitter?”
“No, not really.”
“Would I be able to see the glitter?”
“Oh, you’d be able to see something. But it’s — yeah, I can’t.”
I asked if she would tell me off the record. She would not. I asked if she would tell me off the record after this piece was published. She would not. I told her I couldn’t die without knowing. She guided me to the automotive grade pigments.

The Court considers that it would be inconsistent with the EU Treaties’ purpose of creating an ever
closer union among the peoples of Europe to force the withdrawal of a Member State which,
having notified its intention to withdraw from the EU in accordance with its constitutional rules and
following a democratic process, decides to revoke the notification of that intention through a
democratic process. https://twitter.com/EUCou...

There are two types of people in this world: those who know how to convert PDFs into Word documents and those who are indicted for money laundering. Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort is the second kind of person. https://slate.com/technol...
(Sta accusando Trump di witness tampering — che Trump, nonostante Michael Cohen abbia ammesso L’ALTRO GIORNO di aver mentito al Congresso dietro pressione appunto di Trump, è scemo abbastanza da continuare a fare via twitter)

Schifo la Conway parecchio più di Trump. Se lui è un borioso cretino, lei che lo difende è una merda che si compiace di essere una merda

Sessions non è a capo dell'inchiesta perché si è astenuto dopo che era emerso che durante la campagna elettorale si era incontrato in segreto con l'allora ambasciatore russo, Kislyak, e che aveva mentito in proposito davanti al Senato. Questo significa che non ha voce in capitolo sull'operato di Muller, che è stato nominato da Rosenstein. Trump non se ne è mai fatto una ragione.

He glanced through the glass and saw Tilikum staring back, with what appeared to be two human feet hanging down his side. There was a nude body draped across Tilikum’s back. https://www.outsideonline...
Contraria agli zoo anche io. Qui a Vancouver siamo andati a fare un giro in barca, nell'oceano in una zona dove vivono diverse famiglie di orche (sono circa 75). La guida ci diceva che la vita media di un'orca libera è di circa 75/80 anni. Quella di orche in cattività di 20.

E adesso la pubblicità
(Contaminazioni tra stanzette) Perdonate la domanda idiota, ma l'ultimo di questi spot è davvero in russo? Cioè "Praga" si dice [una cosa che suona come] "Praga", Cecoslovacchia "Cecoslovacchia" e via dicendo? https://www.youtube.com/w...
Cit. a memoria vaga da non mi ricordo che libro di Bisio: "Parlava il russo come l'italiano. Le chiedevi 'come si dice in russo castagna'? E lei rispondeva 'castagna'."

Cohn, a Wall Street veteran, tried to tamp down Trump’s strident nationalism regarding trade. According to Woodward, Cohn “stole a letter off Trump’s desk” that the president was intending to sign to formally withdraw the United States from a trade agreement with South Korea. Cohn later told an associate that he removed the letter to protect national security and that Trump did not notice that it was missing. https://www.washingtonpos...
Under orders from the president, Porter drafted a notification letter withdrawing from NAFTA. But he and other advisers worried that it could trigger an economic and foreign relations crisis. So Porter consulted Cohn, who told him, according to Woodward: “I can stop this. I’ll just take the paper off his desk.”

Of course, anyone can forget something when packing for a trip, but this is really striking.

Era l'unica risposta plausibile, in effetti, ma io continuavo a sperare che fosse scappato da qualche parte, povera stella.
