Book of the day
Ian Rankin, Black & Blue (1997)
Perhaps the best novel with Detective John Rebus. About the North Sea oil industry and a serial killer of old times.
But Ian Rankin, please use a new hero, let Rebus die...

This is something that worries me - I've been blogging for 15 years. Just in case I gather my posts in yearly volumes, published as .pdf books in the digital repository of my university. And I keep all the posts in my computer. I almost lost the blog to a cyberattack a few years ago...

Telefónica plantea que el 82% de su ERE sean prejubilaciones a partir de los 55 años
La operadora replica las condiciones económicas del ajuste de 2024, pero no descarta despidos forzosos
Las personas de 55 años están perfectamente capacitadas para trabajar - ya basta de prejubilaciones a costa de todos. Lo que hay que hacer es que Telefónica las siga empleando.

Por qué los enfermos de cáncer no quieren ser “guerreros”
El Congreso ha abierto el debate para que se use un lenguaje “justo y responsable” al hablar del cáncer, enfermedad en la que impera una narrativa bélica. Cuatro afectados cuentan a EL PAÍS lo dañina ...
‼️En ninguna otra enfermedad se habla de manera tan belicista como con el #cáncer... Si no has conseguido ganar es porque probablemente no has llegado a disponer de una fuerza mental merecedora de haberte librado del cáncer. Y no hay nada más aterrador.‼️

Pero, a ver, con no comprar esta aberración ya está. Si esta señora no entiende lo aberrante que es escribir un libro infantil sobre la DANA y encima usando IA, espero que al menos los posibles compradores sí lo entiendan.

70 years ago today, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat, sparking the Montgomery bus boycott. We all must continue to carry her legacy, fighting for equality and speaking up against injustice.

Book of the day
Stephen King, The Girl who Loved Tom Gordon (1999)
I’m not the only King fan to have a soft spot for this short but pithy novel, which deserves much more attention.
Enjoy!!!

Comprarte unos pantalones térmicos y calcetines de andar por casa porque con un solo gasto de veinticinco euros te vas a ahorrar pagar veinte o treinta euros más en cada factura del gas también es pobreza energética.

Think of AI as ultra-processed junk food - now we know it's being made and sold regardless of our health and in full knowledge that it's damaging. Same with AI: it's not about OUR benefit but THEIR profit.

La corrupción 0 debería ser el objetivo. No se puede partir del supuesto de que no existe. Si todos somos corruptos, no hay nada que hacer.

Hallados 138 cuerpos en las fosas comunes de Minas de Riotinto
Huelvahoy
HUELVAHOY
25 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 2025 (16:52 H.)
Los arqueólogos documentan impactos de proyectil, fracturas perimortem y signos de violencia asociados a la represión franquista
138 cuerpos recién hallados en Huelva. Es aterrador y profundamente desalentador que cada semana aparezcan nuevas víctimas en fosas comunes, recordándonos que mientras el fascismo crece, la verdad de estas vidas sigue emergiendo.

Crash, best remembered for stealing the Oscar to Best Picture from Brokeback Mountain - still inexplicable... Brokeback won best director for Ang Lee and best adapted screenplay.

Book of the day
Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes (1996)
McCourt’s memoir about Irish migration to the USA (and back!) is full of tragedy but also of humour, and enchanted many, many readers in the late 1990s. Not to be missed!

El presidente Juanma Moreno del PP será el rey Baltasar en la Cabalgata de Reyes en Sevilla con la cara pintada de negro a pocos meses de las elecciones andaluzas. Ya lo hizo Ruiz Gallardón en Madrid. ¿Para cuándo el fin del blackface pintando a personas blancas de betún? Bochornoso.
