Pornography not governed
Some mock people who give money to non-governmental organisations (NGOs). On the other hand, it is not elegant to extend to the four winds that set aside a small portion of your charitable wage, so an easy position is not defended. Well, I'm going to cheer: I think, naive, that gesture serves something. The fact is that a couple of years ago I left an NGO and I was called again this week to thank them for the help that I had then given and which please need my help again.
I was convinced that he was going to appear innocent before that worker, but when he started talking to me about the situation in Africa I don't know which country, my heart became sore and I almost stopped. I thought that getting the information as I wasn't going to be able to move, because whoever wants to know has it there, it's available, wherever I want... But yes, I almost said the step.
"Perhaps there would be an abolitionist movement, and others would wager on regulating pornography, guaranteeing the decent conditions of the workers, and, to realize it, enemies of each other."
I related that thought to what happened a few weeks before. In the language academy, I got to talk about pornography. I got the alarmist, almost apocalyptic oral exercise, I admit, but the report that Save the Children (no, it wasn't my NGO) released last year struck me a little bit. A 40-year-old classmate stuck with me and I accepted it with sportsmanship. However, the argument used surprised me: the ease with which we criticize pornography in a society where sex remains a taboo, but hear, that sex education is important for young people. I mean, it seemed to me that I thought of myself as a carcava, no more. He probably wasn't entirely wrong. But I thought of myself, and perhaps I was wrong, that that woman in good faith wasn't particularly aware of what mainstream pornography is today. Mainstream, that is, intended for heteroid men.
So, either because some of us are semiduos, or because others don't know, pornography is still the primary sex education agent of young people, and -- Sorry, I had to start again with my catastrophist midwife.
Because, of course, if you knew, I know what I know, you would create an abolitionist movement, and others would bet on regulating pornography, guaranteeing the decent conditions of the workers, and, to realize that, they would become the main enemy. And I point out, allies and so on, once again, privileged witnesses to the debate, that we only lack popcorn.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
In recent years, the concept of industrial policy has reappeared strongly at various levels. The organization that was the hammer of neoliberalism, the International Monetary Fund, today insists that markets have been pressured to allocate resources efficiently and solve these... [+]
The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
Zalantza asko izan ditut, meloia ireki ala ez. Ausartuko naiz, zer demontre! Aspaldian buruan dudan gogoeta jarri nahi dut mahai gainean: ez da justua erditu den emakumearen eta beste gurasoaren baimen-iraupena bera izatea. Hobeto esanda, baimen-denbora bera izanda ere, ez... [+]
We are in the midst of a world imperialist offensive led by the Western bourgeoisie. The form that the imperialist offensive has taken is that of war, with all its variants: economic war, cognitive and cultural war, lawfarr; and, of course, military war. Western imperialism has... [+]
I just saw a series from another sad detective. All the plots take place on a remote island in Scotland. You know how these fictions work: many dead, ordinary people but not so many, and the dark green landscape. This time it reminded me of a trip I made to the Scottish... [+]
To be honest, I don't know why I'm writing this. In today’s hostile environment, opinions of this kind are not well received. Perhaps LUZ will not publish this because it does not correspond to the opinions they have published so far (but if they have finally decided to publish... [+]
On January 15, the techno-business lobby called Cedarios presented its 6th report, Euskadi and the European Union, the shared destiny of prosperity and competitiveness. This neoliberal Think Tank, made up of eminent experts drawn from the world of finance, presented a magical... [+]
We Basques move our feet behind the witness of Korrika to proclaim that we want to survive as a Basque people in favor of our language, with the aim of the Basque Country we desire.

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.
The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]
Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]
