Energy sovereignty I
Every three or four months we stay at home without hot water, if not boiler, because the propane bottle fails us.
I have often reflected on energy sovereignty; that renewable energies are technologies of energy sources, adapted to the environment, with a dimensioning associated with ethical consumption, based on decentralised models, which do not generate dependence… that we live in a house equivalent to a seventh floor without elevator, that we need propane bottles to heat water and the house and that we do not have a car, I look at an energy control capacity that goes beyond a dubious green label. For example, if we had a complete electrical installation, which besides supplying light would allow us to warm up the water and the house, even if we do not have a light contract, we could learn to paint the light and thus satisfy our energy needs. But no, we have to buy the bottle and deliver it home at a set time, because we can't do that job, and we often run out of hot water at home.

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... [+]
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... [+]
