O mundo por aqui tem estado rodopiante - nas melhores voltas. E o de vocês? É engraçado escrever em português num ambiente que mistura tantas vozes - mas então, é uma voz que ouvem alguns, multiplicantes, e talvez outros tentem decifrar.

U skladu sa tim pitanjem, daje se i sam odgovor. Ako parafraziram Lakana, mogli bismo reći da na fakulitetima i univ…

I've just found (via the friends at The Influencers) an extremely interesting article on the censoring of a Blu's wall at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.
