Marco M.M. wrote that his profile, dedicated to meteorology, would continue to deal with the weather, but that he wanted to share a personal reflection after facing a significant health issue in the previous weeks. He recounted having lived through difficult days and new fears, an experience that, according to him, made him reevaluate everyday things and the importance of paying attention to the difficulties of others. He added that his private messages were open to anyone who needed to talk and that, while he did not have solutions for every problem, he was available to listen. He concluded by inviting people to take care of themselves and those close to them, specifying that in the next post he would return to discussing meteorology. #Vita #Ascolto #Gratitudine (translated)

Xico Graziano stated that electoral surveys reflected the days prior, and not the future scenario. According to him, at the beginning of the week, PoderData and Datafolha showed Flávio two percentage points ahead of Lula. Graziano said that Flávio received support from Zema, Caiado, and Cury, while Cleitinho, Tarcísio, and Moro mobilized in his campaign. He also stated that in Rio de Janeiro, the PL candidate was announced as the big winner. Regarding Lula, he wrote that he remained in Brasília reorganizing the campaign and that Janja faced criticisms both inside and outside the PT; in Graziano's assessment, there were no other relevant facts. Based on this, he evaluated that Flávio was gaining ground while Lula remained stagnant, and that the next surveys would reflect recent events. #Eleições2023 #PesquisaEleitoral #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Karina Michelin stated that images from an assembly at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR) in Curitiba showed speeches against Flávio Bolsonaro and in defense of Lula's reelection. She said that organizations had announced more than 40 acts at universities across the country and criticized statements that, according to her, advocated for the radicalization of activism and referenced the kidnapping of an ambassador during the dictatorship. Michelin recalled that American ambassador Charles Burke Elbrick was kidnapped in 1969 by members of the ALN and MR-8, and not by the National Union of Students (UNE). She also classified predictions about a potential victory of Flávio Bolsonaro as false and alarmist, stating that the remarks about loss of rights and threats to democracy did not present concrete measures to support them. She mentioned that she did not question the right of students to protest or support candidates but criticized speeches that, in her view, replaced arguments with slogans and romanticized armed struggle. Michelin advocated for universities to shape professionals, researchers, and free citizens and stated that glorifying guerrilla practices and treating opponents as enemies denied democracy. #Educação #Democracia #Política (translated)

Let them destroy Los Angeles or San Diego, a small price for the safety of the world. These are the words😬 Los Angeles and San Diego are located in California, the state that symbolizes American progressivism and is a constant target of Trump’s rhetoric. Out of magnanimity, he could also symbolically offer Atlanta, which is another completely Democratic island and a crucial hub for civil rights; it would follow the very same political scheme. The geopolitical value of the "Blue States": Politically (or ironically🤥) sacrificing the large blue metropolitan areas (Democratic) serves to warm the crowds of deeply rural or conservative states like Nebraska, where the electorate perceives those cities as distant, alien, and ideologically opposed. The more evident the nonsense is, the more it is hidden from the eyes of the fools who believe it. (translated)

"The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP. I say one simple thing to all: giving 10 out of 100 is much more than giving 50 out of 1000. If we are not able to solve the concrete problems of people, we open space for the growth of demagoguery, populism, and extremism. That is why our response cannot be merely technocratic and rhetorical. It has to be political." In this context, Luís Montenegro did not fail to respond directly to the frugal countries: "The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP.

Eleonora Aloise criticized the communication management of Jannik Sinner, arguing that three months without information was too long and that fans were only asking for a bit of transparency, not intimate details or medical records. She wrote that what was known had come from leaked videos, gossip newsletters, occasional sources, and geolocations of restaurants. Aloise also contested the relentless defenses of the tennis player and the rhetoric that he owed nothing to anyone. She recalled that, in her opinion, millions of fans made sacrifices to buy tickets and criticized the tournaments that asked for a last-minute announcement of a withdrawal. She defined Sinner as a public figure and a multimillion-dollar business, as well as an important figure for fans, and argued that justifying him on every issue was not doing him any favors. According to Aloise, communication had dulled every nuance and prevented the complexity of the person from being told. She wrote that injuries happened and that it wasn't necessary to keep them secret. She concluded by saying that fans would welcome Sinner with open arms upon his return, but perhaps with less naïveté. #sinner #tennis #comunicazione #trasparenza #tennis (translated)
